observed something.
The wind is pushing
the napkins around

- Hey, yeah.
Why is the napkin holder
staying in place?
- Hm, that's
another good question.
- Probably because
the napkin holder is heavy.
- Oh, and paper napkins
like these are light.
- So wind can move light things
easier than heavy things.
- That means, for the kite,
we need to use something
that's light so the wind

is pushing it.

reminds me of?

- My kite.
- Hey, yeah,
the wind pushes that sail
kind of like the way the wind
pushes a kite.

Superpowers of Science!
- Let's start
by asking questions.
That can help us figure out
what to do.
- Okay, here's a question.
What can we use
to fix this kite?
- We should cover it
with something
that can blow in the wind.
- Ah!
Ugh, these paper napkins
have been blowing
in the wind a lot today.
- Where are they coming from?
- Um, over there.
[wind howls]
- Ooh, look.
The wind's pushing them
right out of the napkin holder.
- Hey, I just
observed something.
The wind is pushing
the napkins around
but not the napkin holder.
- Hey, yeah.
Why is the napkin holder
staying in place?
- Hm, that's
another good question.
- Probably because
the napkin holder is heavy.
- Oh, and paper napkins
like these are light.
- So wind can move light things
easier than heavy things.
- That means, for the kite,
we need to use something
that's light so the wind
can push it easily.
- I have another question.
Has anyone seen Fur Blur?
- [gasps]
Oh no, where is she?

- Wow, look at that boat
and Fur Blur go.
- The wind is really moving it.
- Okay, now I've got
another question.
Why is the boat moving?
It's not super light
like the napkins.
- No, but look at its sail.
See how it's puffed out?
That's 'cause the wind
is pushing it.
You know what that
reminds me of?
Thought projecting.
- My kite.
- Hey, yeah,
the wind pushes that sail
kind of like the way the wind
pushes a kite.

something that's light.
