- Hi.
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 Lolly Hopwood.
And later on, we'll head to the music room with some friends to create our own music, and we'll do some movement and mindfulness, too.
Lolly is going to get us singing and dancing and using our imaginations.
And I know she brought some... ..friends with her, too!
I didn't know she brought an alligator!
There were no alligators in my contract.
All right, now we're ready to jam.
Have so much fun with Lolly Hopwood and her friends.
- Hello.
Hello, friends.
To everybody who's in here, hello, friends.
And to everybody who's out there, I'm so excited that you guys are going to be playing, that I get to play with you today, but before we start, we're going to have to say hello to the entire world.
Can you guys say, "Hi, world"?
Hello, world!
You know what?
Sometimes I like to start with a little bit of kid magic, so if you guys can put your arms right around yourselves like this, on the count of three, I'm going to send my love out to you, and you guys can send it right back in to us in here.
Ready?
One, two, three, love!
Oh, I caught it.
Should we try it again one more time?
Here we go.
One, two, three, love!
Oh!
Quick, catch it!
Oh, my goodness.
That was a really good hug.
I think we need to say hello to some of the other things that are out in the world.
Like maybe we can say hello to the birds.
Are you guys ready?
I think we're ready to say hello to the birds.
♪ Hello, world ♪ ♪ Hello, world outside my window ♪ ♪ Hello, world ♪ ♪ Can you hear me singing along with you?
♪ ♪ Can you sing like a bird?
♪ ♪ La, la, la, la, la ♪ ♪ Can you sing like a bird?
♪ ♪ La, la, la, la, la ♪ ♪ Can you sing like a bird?
♪ ♪ La, la, la, la, la ♪ ♪ When you sing, the whole world ♪ ♪ Will be singing along with you.
♪ Oh, my goodness.
Do you guys think you can flap your wings and fly like a bird?
All right.
How about if we say hello to something else?
I love saying hello to the trees.
They put their branches up in the air and wiggle them all around like that.
Can you guys do that, too?
But we need help from the wind's best friend, the tree's best friend, the wind.
Whoops!
I gave that up.
Can you guys put your branches way high up in the air and go, "Woo!"
Just like the wind.
♪ Hello, wind ♪ ♪ Hello, wind outside my window ♪ ♪ Hello, wind ♪ ♪ Can you hear me singing along with you?
♪ ♪ Can you sing like the wind?
♪ ♪ Woo ♪ ♪ Can you sing like the wind?
♪ ♪ Woo ♪ ♪ Can you sing like the wind?
♪ ♪ Woo ♪ ♪ When you sing ♪ ♪ The whole world will be singing along with you.
♪ All right.
We're going to say hello to one more thing.
Now, sometimes this comes out and wakes us up every morning in the sky, makes the sky bright and blue, and sometimes it's hiding behind a cloud.
So if it's sunny where you are right now, then jump up super high and catch the sun.
And if it's cloudy where you are, you've got to jump even higher to get through the clouds to make sure that you can get extra sunshine for your day.
♪ Hello, sun ♪ ♪ Hello, sun outside my window ♪ ♪ Hello, sun ♪ ♪ Can you see me shining along with you?
♪ ♪ Can you shine like the sun?

♪ All right, let's see if you can jump up and catch five rays of sun.
Here we go.
One, two, three, four, five!
All right, awesome.
Put your branches way high up in the sky one more time like this and shake them all around.
And finally, we're going to fly like birds one more time, so flap your wings, see how high you can fly.
Ready?
One, two, three, four, fly!
We did it.
We said hello to the entire world.
So hello again.
My name is Lolly Hopwood.
It sounds a little bit like Lollipop, right?
Yeah, that's me.
And I'm here with my super duper good friend, Annalee.
Hi, Annalee.
Thank you so much for coming.
And with my other really good friend, Morgan.
Hi, Morgan!
Morgan's hair is kind of like rainbows, right?
It matches the set.
I love rainbow hair.
It's so cool.
Now we're going to go on an adventure today.
I think it'd be really fun to see what the world has to offer us.
Now, there's lots of different ways to travel, but today I think I would like to drive.
I think it's a fun idea.
Do you guys like to drive?
So grab your steering wheel like this.
Now, I know some of you guys may have been driving for a long time, but I'm going to review our rules for driving.
So first, let's make sure our engines are going to start.
All right, mine started.
Now, what happens if you're driving down the road and the light turns... ..red?
What happens then?
You got to stop.
But what happens if you're driving down the road and the light turns yellow?
What happens then?
You've got to go real slow.
But if you're driving down the road and you come to a light that's green, you get to go!
♪ Heading down the highway in my Cadillac ♪ ♪ Going really steady ♪ ♪ Going really fast ♪ ♪ Oh, whoa, oh, whoa ♪ ♪ When the light turns red, you got to stop ♪ ♪ When the light turns yellow, got to go real slow ♪ ♪ But when the light turns green, you gotta go, go, go!
♪ Beep-beep!
I think we should try something else.
I really like vintage things.
That means that they're a little older.
And there's a kind of vintage car called a jalopy.
Now you got to bounce up and down when you're in a jalopy and they make really silly sounds.
They go, "Awooga!"
Can you guys make a silly sound?
Maybe a silly face, too.
All right, here we go.
♪ Bopping down the road in the old jalopy ♪ ♪ Driving really silly ♪ ♪ Driving really sloppy ♪ ♪ When the light turns red you gotta stop.
♪ When the light turns yellow, gotta go real slow ♪ ♪ But when the light turns green, you gotta go, go, go!
♪ Awooga!
Oh, I know.
We should go on a very cool kind of...
It's not really a car.
How about motorcycles?
Do you guys like motorcycles?
I sure do.
I love them because you can do really cool tricks on them.
Do you guys want to try to do a cool trick on your motorcycle?
♪ Going down the road in my motorbike ♪ ♪ Doing lots of tricks just how I like ♪ ♪ Oh, whoa, oh, whoa ♪ ♪ When the light turns red, you gotta stop.
♪ Do you think you could do a wheelie?
Whoa!
Oh, my gosh!
Okay.
♪ When the light turns yellow, gotta go real slow ♪ But when the light turns green, you gotta go, go, go!
♪ All right.
We were a Cadillac, a jalopy, a motorbike.
How about if we're something really big this time?
Let's become a huge, gigantic Mack truck.
So everyone put your arms and legs out, and we're going to need a big beep that goes "Beep-beep!"
♪ Going down the road in my big Mack truck ♪ ♪ Running low on gas but I'm running high on luck ♪ ♪ When the light turns red, you gotta stop ♪ Beep-beep!
♪ When the light turns yellow, gotta go real slow ♪ ♪ But when the light turns green, you gotta go, go, go!
♪ So good.
Now, we were something big.
How about if we're something really small, like a little tiny, itty bitty motor scooter?
Can you make yourself really small?
That was very small.
Here we go.
♪ Going down the road in my motor scooter ♪ ♪ Smaller than the rest, but it's so much cuter ♪ ♪ When the light turns red, you gotta stop.
♪ Should we do another wheelie?
Everyone stand on one foot.
Whoa!
♪ When the light turns yellow ♪ ♪ Gotta go real slow ♪ ♪ But when the light turns green, you gotta go, go, go!
♪ We did it!
That was fun.
I think I would like to go on another part of an adventure.
Maybe we can take a boat.
We took a car, we took a motorcycle.
We took a big Mack truck.
We took scooters.
Maybe we can take a boat instead.
So everyone grab a paddle and let's see if we can start rowing down a river just like this.
Are you ready?
What kind of boat do you think you have?
Hmm.
Maybe a red boat?
A rainbow boat?
I think that's what I would want to have.
All right, here we go.
♪ The sun is up, the day is new ♪ ♪ The air is clear and the sky is blue ♪ ♪ Let's go on down to the riverside ♪ ♪ Put your boat in the water and go for a ride ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling.
♪ I think the waves are getting really big.
Let's see if we can jump up super high to go over the waves.
♪ Now the water's getting rough and the waves are white ♪ ♪ So grab a paddle and hold on tight ♪ We'll come out fine on the other side ♪ ♪ Let's have fun and enjoy the ride ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling ♪ ♪ Now the water's getting calm and the waves are lousy ♪ The birds fly above the fish down below ♪ ♪ There's so many places that we can go on a beautiful day ♪ ♪ With my darling ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Put your boat, boat, boat in the river ♪ ♪ Let's go, go, go down the river ♪ ♪ Row down the river with my darling.
♪ - Hi.
And welcome to the music room.
You know, we are all about making music here at Kid's Jam, and you can make music with us at home, too.
First, let's get ready with a few deep breaths in.
Take a long breath in.
Let it all the way out.
Do that again.
Take a long breath in.
Let it all the way out.
Can you guys stand up right where you are?
Maybe you can stand up, too.
Let's give a little bit of a stretch.
Can you give a wiggle first of your body?
Give a whole wiggle and a jiggle?
Yeah.
All right, now hold still and bring your arms up overhead.
Can you bring them up overhead as high as you can?
Yeah.
Maybe you can clasp your hands together like this.
Or maybe you can lean to one side!
And maybe you could lean to the other side.
Good.
And bring your hands down.
Give one more wiggle and jiggle.
And hold still!
And breathe in and breathe out.
Well done.
All right.
You can sit back down.
That was beautifully done.
You know, there are lots of different sounds in music.
There are loud sounds and soft sounds.
Let's listen to a sound and you tell me whether you think it's loud or soft.
Are you ready?
You ready?
Okay.
- Loud!
- What do you think?
That's a loud sound, right?
Okay, let's listen to another sound and tell me whether you think it's loud or soft.
What do you think?
It's soft.
Can you guys come make a loud sound?
Let's go one at a time.
Could you come make the loud sound on the drum?
Let's see.
Wow!
Good loud sound.
Can you find something to make a loud sound at home?
Maybe you could jump on the floor or make a drum on a table or your lap.
Come on, Nico.
Let's make a loud sound.
Let's hear it.
Whoa!
Excellent!
Want to make a loud sound?
Let's hear it.
Listen.
Whoa!
Good loud sound.
You guys want to come make a loud sound?
Come on!
Are you making your loud sound at home?
My goodness!
Are you ready to make your loud sound?
Come on, let's hear it.
Oh, I like that.
All right.
How about a soft sound?
Can you find something at home to make a soft sound with?
How about you guys?
You can stand up, if you'd like, and I'll come around.
You can strum the ukulele.
Just go like this.
Yeah.
Can you do it?
Pretty!
It's a nice soft sound.
Do you hear the soft sound?
Maybe you can find something that you can make a soft sound with.
Yeah!
Good.
Let's hear your soft sound.
Ooh, I like that.
Beautiful.
Beautiful job, my friends.
Music is made up of all different kinds of sounds, and well done making loud and soft sounds with us today.
All right, friends, let's send it back to the Kids Jam studio for some more music.
We'll see you next time in the music room.
- Bye-bye!
- Bye!
- Everyone put your binoculars on.
I'm not really seeing a lot over here, but maybe we could hear something.
Everyone put your ears out like this.
Do you hear that?
It's going, "Bzz!"
What kind of animal buzzes?
That's right.
It's a honey bee.
And you know what I love about honeybees is that they find lots of different colors all around in the fields.
Do you think that you could help us find some colors right now with this honey bee?
Let's look around, see if we can find something.
It could be something we're wearing.
It could be something that's in the room that we're in.
It could be a toy.

I think we did.
I'm wondering if we have time for one more or if we have to say goodbye.
Wait.
We do have time for one more?
That's fantastic, because, Annalee, we brought a special friend with us today, right?
Do you guys want to meet my special friend today?
Oh, my goodness.
It's something green and sparkly.
Wait, I didn't think they were usually sparkly.
It's our friend Sal the alligator.
Yes.
Hello, Sal.
It's so nice to see you.
Now, Sal's a little dangerous sometimes, so you have to tell him, if he comes towards you and tries to bite you, you have to say, "Shoo, alligator, go on home!"
Can you guys all say that with me?
Point your fingers just like this, and we're going to say it really loud.
Ready?
Shoo, alligator, go on home!
Oh...
He said no?
Sal!
Sometimes this happens.
He just wants to hang out and eat all of my friends.
Oh, dear!
So whenever this happens, I have to sing a whole song to make sure that he can know that he's not supposed to eat us.
Do you guys want to help out with this?
Okay, great.
I'm going to need all your kid magic, all your kid energy to make sure that Sal knows that he's not supposed to chomp us.
All right, here we go.
One, two, three, go!
Now over here, I'm going to sing it.
And if you guys want to sing along at home, you can, anywhere you are.
You can say something like... ♪ I was walking along.
♪ And then you guys can say it right back at me.
Here we go.
♪ I was walking along ♪ ♪ Down the street ♪ ♪ When I looked in the gutter ♪ ♪ At my feet ♪ ♪ I saw an alligator ♪ ♪ Looking at me ♪ ♪ And I could tell by his expression ♪ ♪ That I looked pretty tasty ♪ I didn't want him to eat me.

♪ Let's say it together.
♪ Shoo, alligator, go on home!
♪ Is he still there?
He didn't go away.
I think I need a second verse.
Are you guys ready to sing?
Here we go.

♪ Let's say it again.
