Welcome to Kids Jam.

I'm Kira Willey, and I'm so happy you're here.

You know, we can all make music.

We can clap our hands, tap our feet, use our voices - there are lots of ways.

And today we get to make music with our friends.

Lucy Kalantari and The Jazz Cats.

I see a ukulele over there, a clarinet, a slide trumpet, even a big, upright bass - so many instruments.

They're going to get us singing, dancing, tapping our feet.

We might even become Jazz Cats ourselves!

Later on, we'll head to the music room with some friends to create our own music and do some movement and mindfulness too.

All right, we're ready to jam.

Here's Lucy Kalantari and The Jazz Cats.

Can you be a Jazz Cat right from home?

Yes!

Get your drumsticks out, like this.

And play a swinging hi-hat like this.

Hey, Evan, how about you join them?

Woo!

That's swinging.

All right, I'm going to sing something and you sing it back to me.

Oh, my goodness!

That was amazing, you make excellent Jazz Cats.

I have a question.

Do you think you can make excellent bunnies too?

What do you think?

I think you can.

So, you see, bunnies love to hop.

Can you hop right from where you are?

Are you ready?

Let's try it.

Hop, hop, hop.

And you know what else bunnies love to do?

They love to thump with their feet, like this.

Thump, thump, thump!

Can we try that again?

So we're going to hop - hop, hop, hop.

And then we're going to thump, like this.

Thump, thump, thump.

Good job!

You make excellent bunnies.

Give us a beat, Evan.

Let's try it.

Oh, we're going to get hopping now!

All right, let's practice.

OK, ready?

We're going to hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop.

Oh, that's good.

We're going to thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump.

Really good!

Again!

Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, very nice.

And then the thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump.

Oh, that's so good!

Let's try this.

One, two, one, two, everybody hop!

We're going to do a lookout, put hands over your head, like this.

Over your forehead.

We're going to look this way.

I think it's all clear.

Let's put our hands this way and look that way.

It looks pretty clear.

I think the coast is clear, but let's get up real slow.

I just knew it.

And together, we made a pretty fun hopping spree, didn't we?

- Oh, yeah.

- Oh, yeah!

Because together, we are stronger when we do it together.

Can I see your muscles?

Let me see your strong muscles.

Oh, my goodness!

Oh, you work out really well.

Together, we shine brighter.

Can I see your beautiful stars, up like this?

And then side by side, we're going to do a little dance, like this.

Side by side, we can do most anything because together, we're stronger.

Juntos, somos fuertes.

Do you think you could do those dance moves right at home with me?

Let's try it.

♪ The song is still going?

OK. Do you think it's ever going to end?

- OK, we're done.

- Welcome to the Music Room.

We are all about making music, here at Kids Jam.

And you at home can make music with us too.

First, let's get ready with a few deep breaths and a stretch.

Let's stand on up.

Can you guys stand up?

Jump your feet out wide like this.

Put your arms out wide.

And make a star.

Can you make a star?

Put lots of energy in your arms and energy in your legs and take a big breath in.

Let it all the way out.

And jump your feet in.

And have a seat.

There is music and rhythm all around us, we just have to listen for it.

There's even rhythm in the words that we say.

Can you hear a rhythm in the word watermelon?

How would you play the rhythm in the word watermelon?

This is how I would play it.

Watermelon.

What would you do?

Let me hear.

- Watermelon.

- Yeah, very good.

Watermelon, right?

Do you hear the rhythm?

Try it again.

Watermelon.

Good.

How about this one?

How about apple?

What would you play?

- Apple.

- Yeah, apple, right?

How about this word?

Grape.

What would you do?

- Grape.

- Grape!

Yeah, just grape.

How about one more?

Do you hear rhythm in the word tangerine?

Can you try that one?

- Tangerine.

- Yeah, tangerine.

And you can play it any way you want.

On your lap.

You can stomp your feet.

You could clap your hands.

Any way you want to play the rhythm.

OK, now I'm going to put some of these words together and see if you can play the rhythm.

Are you ready?

I'll show you first.

So, if I say watermelon grape, I'm going to play... That's how I hear the rhythm.

You ready to try it?

Are you ready to try it?

OK, here we go.

Ready?

Watermelon grape.

Watermelon apple.

Tangerine grape apple.

Yeah, very good, you guys.

Should we get a little trickier?

You ready?

Watermelon watermelon, grape grape.

Very good!

Tangerine grape apple.

All right, let's do one more.

Watermelon watermelon tangerine.

Go!

Beautiful job, my friends.

That was amazing.

Thank you for playing rhythms with us.

Now, let's go back to the Kids Jam studio for more songs.

We'll see you next time in the Music Room.
