[giggles; wobbly sounds]

When I grow up I'm going to be
just like my mom, Nick.

Me too,
Sally!

You're going to
be like my mom?

No, [GIGGLE] I mean, I'm
going to be just like my dad!

See?
- [GIGGLES and LAUGHTER]

You already look
a bit like your dad.

It's the Cat!

The Cat in the Hat!

It's good to see you.

Even if you're
upside down.

We're not upside-down.
You are!

An easy mistake to make.

What are you playing?

We're playing
When I Grow Up.

When I was a kitten
I loved that game!

Then you grew
up to be a cat.

A Cat in a Hat!

Even then you could tell I
was going to grow up to be me!

Although, with some baby
animals it is tricky.

It is?

Take my friend Puggle
from Wallamaroo.

It's anyone's guess what
she'll grow up into.

I bet we could guess.

No way.

I'm sure we could
with three guesses.

Then give it a try!

Your mother will not
mind at all if you do.

Mom, can we go to
Wallamaroo to play

'When I Grow Up' with the
Cat in the Hat?

Only if I get to play too.

Can you guess who this
little girl grew up to be?

She looks like you,
Sally.

That's my mom when
she was little!

And she grew up to be you!

You guessed.
Now have fun in Wallamaroo.

Okay,
thanks mom!

We can go!We can go!
We can go!We can go!

I know.
I know!

To the Thingamajigger!

When I was an itty bitty
fishy I always knew

I'd grow up to be a
big fish some day!

A big fish in
a little bowl!

Just how I like it.

[GIGGLES]

Buckle up!
[honk]



Flick the Jiggermawhizzer!

[boing]

[honk]

[pop]



Isn't this fun?

YAHOO!

♪ Here we go, go, go, go!
On an adventure. ♪

♪ The Thingamajigger
is up and away! ♪

♪ Go, go, go, go!
On an adventure. ♪

♪ We're flying with the
Cat in the Hat today! ♪

♪ We'll find little Puggle
in Wallamaroo, ♪

♪ and try to guess what
she'll grow up into. ♪

♪ Here we go, go, go, go!
On an adventure. ♪

♪ Go, go, go, go GO!



Welcome to Wallamaroo!

I can't wait
to meet Puggle!

And to start guessing!



Is this where
Puggle lives?

It sure is!

And it's getting dark, so
it's the perfect time for

Puggle to come
out and play.

H-e-l-l-o?

Hello?
Who's there?

It's me, the
Cat in the Hat.

Meet Nick and Sally.

Hi!
- Hello!

Hi,
I'm Puggle.

We're playing
'When I Grow Up!'

Wanna play too?

Sure! When I grow up
I'm going to be...

Uh, uh, uh!
Don't tell.

Nick and Sally have three
guesses to guess what you'll be.

Oh okay.
Take a guess!

Er ... um ...

We've never met anyone
like you before.

Puggle is pretty special!

I'll give you a clue.

Puggle spends time both
on land and in the water.

I love to go swimming!

Hmm, You have
swimmer's feet.

With feet like that,

maybe Puggle will
grow up to be a toad.

Toads do like to spend
time on land and in the water.

[GIGGLE]

Is that your first guess?

Yes!

Then let's go check with
my friend Gabi, the Cane Toad!

I know just where
to find her.

Ah ha!

Meet Gubby,
the Cane Toad.

Hi,
Gabi!

Can you answer a
question please?

I would be happy to.

Will our friend Puggle be
a toad like you

when she grows up?

Hu!
Goodness no!

But my babies will.

They're right here!

Huh?
Where?

Allow me!

AWWWWWWWWWW!

Aren't they adorable.

These itty bitty critters
are called tadpoles.

Don't you just love
how they wiggle?

They don't look
like toads.

Ah, well they have a lot
more growing up to do

before they're
all 'grown-up'.

Puggle's not one of those.

That's right!

I won't be a Toad
when I grow up.

Guess again!



Hmmmm, does that
flat tail

and brown fur remind
you of anyone?

Oh oh! I, Know!
I know!

A beaver!
- A beaver! A beaver!

Puggle will be a beaver
when she grows up!

Is that your second guess?

Yes,
yes!

Then let's go, go, go, and
check in with my friend

Betty the Beaver in
Paddle-Puddle-Pond.

To the Thingamajigger!



♪ When Puggle grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪

♪ She won't be a Cane Toad.

♪ That's easy to see.

♪ So when she grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪

♪ We're guessing a beaver!

♪ I know I'm a believer!

♪ When Puggle grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪



[chewing sounds]

[giggles]

Hello Betty.

Why if it isn't the
Cat and his friends.

Hello.
- Hi, Betty.

We're playing
'When I Grow Up'.

Wanna play too?

Can we Mom?
Can we?

Oh sure!

All work and no play
makes a dull beaver.

YAY!

Hello there!
- Hello.

Now, let's check
to see if Puggle

will grow up to be a beaver.

Hmm, flat tail?
- Er...Check!

Brown fur?
- Hmm...Check!

[giggles]
Big teeth?

Er ... Puggle
doesn't have teeth.

She has a ducky duck bill!

Whadda ya think?

Hmmm...the beaver kitten
has teeth not a duck bill

and looks just like his
mom - only smaller.

Unlike Puggle.

Which means Puggle won't
grow up to be a Beaver.

That's right!

I won't be a beaver
when I grow up.

Oh well.
Thanks for helping.

Anytime!

Bye!
- Bye!

See ya!

Isn't this exciting?

You have one guess left,
so I'll give you a big clue!

Puggle hatched
from an egg.

Uh ha, one that
my Mama laid.

Hmmmm.

What lays eggs?

Has webbed feet
for swimming.

And a ducky duck bill?

A duck!
A duck!

Puggle will grow
up to be a duck!

Is that your third
and last guess?

Yes, yes, yes!

Then let's go, go, go,
back to Wallamoroo and

see if you are right!

To the Thingamajigger!



♪ When Puggle grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪

♪ She won't be Beaver.

♪ Or a Toad either.

♪ So when she grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪

♪ We're guessing a ducky!

♪ She is if we're lucky!

♪ When Puggle grows up,
oh what will she be? ♪



Hm,
I don't see any ducks.

When you want to call
ducks, the first thing you do,

Is whistle real loud
for THING ONE and THING TWO!

[whistles]

Hello!

How can the Things
call ducks, Cat?

With their quacky
quack quackers!

Ta, da!

[duck sounds]

[quacks]

Ah ha!

[more quacks]

[Quacks]

[giggles]

Make way for the ducklings!

[Quacks]

YAY!
[GIGGLES]

Mind if I join the parade?

No,
not at all!

[Quack]
[Quacking]

So waddah ya say?

Will Puggle grow up
to be a duck some day?

She has duck feet.

And a ducky duck's bill.

If it walks like a duck
and quacks like duck.

It's a duck!

[Quacking]

But Puggle doesn't
walk like a duck.

Or quack like a duck.

So she's not
a duck either.

That's right.

I won't be a duck
when I grow up.

Then what will you be?

Whatever it is, we know
she'll grow up to look

like her mom and dad.

Mommy!
Daddy!

Meet Mr and Mrs
Duckbill Platypus!

That's what you are!

Uh huh, a Duckbill
Platypus.

That's fun to say!

Duck-bill-platypus.
Duck-bill-platypus.

[giggling]
Duck-bill-platypus!

Duck-bill-platypus.

[laugh]
Yes that's right!

We're happy little Puggle
will grow up to be herself!

That's right.
Our sweet girl.

Oooh, "When I Grow Up" is
such a wonderful game...

Some youngsters look
different from their

parents its true,
But most look the same,

Yes,
even you two.

When Puggle grows bigger,
there won't be a fuss

We know that she'll be,
a duck-bill-platypus!

[little giggle]

Playing 'When I Grow Up'
was fun.

How about another game?

Let's play Platypus!

Oh what fun.
How do you play?

Oh it's easy.

You make up a platypus
name for yourself.

Puggle is a
Duckbill Platypus.

That makes Fish a...

Gold Tail Fishy Fin!

[laughs]

I like it!

Me too!

What's my platypus name?

Can't you guess?

You're the one and only!

Striped Hat Catty Puss!
- Striped Hat Catty Puss!

Yes,
I am.

Isn't this fun?

He's not behind
the chair, Sally.

He's not under the
sofa either, Nick!

Oh,
try the cushions!

Great idea!

Here I am!

Wa, it's the Cat!

The Cat in the Hat!

[giggles]

'Find-the-Cat'
is such a fun game!

We aren't playing
Find-the-Cat.

We're playing
'Find Harvey'!

Who's Harvey?

He's my class Guinea Pig.

It's my turn to look after
him, only I left

the cage door open
and he got out.

We've looked for him
everywhere so we can put

him back, but we
can't find him!

Hmmm.

Ah-ha!

Then you need to stop
playing Find Harvey,

and start playing 'Do
It Differently!'

Will that help us get
Harvey back into his cage?

It most certainly will!

How do you play?

By visiting three of my
best friends, Olivia,

Chandra and Toshi, and
playing a 'different' game

with each one.

That sounds like fun!

Big,
big fun!

Let's go play!

Yes!

Your mother will not
mind at all if you do!

[giggles]
Mom?

Can we go learn to play
games in three different

ways with the Cat in the
Hat and his friends?

Play games in three
different ways?

That sure beats the
same old same old.

OK Honey.
-Thanks Mom!

We can go!
We can go!

I know
I know.

To the Thingamajigger!



Buckle up!

Welcome to our first stop,
Grassy Wassy,

home to Olivia the Ostrich.

A magnificent bird!

Yea!



Olivia the Ostrich -
meet Sally and Nick.

How utterly delightful
to meet you [giggles].

What brings you here
to Grassy Wassy?

We're playing, the 'doing
it differently' game.

Oh gosh,
are you really?

Let's show Sally and Nick
how differently

you do things Olivia.

How about a race?
- Yay! A race! A race!

A race?
Oooh! What fun!

[giggles]

We'll race you to that tree.

That's a long way.

We'll take the
Thingamajigger.

I haven't been this
excited since I laid a big egg!

[giggles]

Ready,
get set ...

Let's, go, go, go!

Wa hoo.

[laughing]

Runnin!

Why's Olivia running?

Yeah. Why doesn't she fly
like other birds?

Because Olivia's an
Ostrich -

and Ostriches can't fly!

[running efforts]

Who needs to fly?

When you can r-r-r-r-run!

[laughter]

WOW!
She's fast!

Go Olivia Go!

Olivia wins!
- Hurray!

Oh I won!
I won!

I won! I won! I won!

[GIGGLES]
Bye Olivia!

Bye!

Olivia's awesome.

Other birds fly
but she runs!

That sure is different!

But how's racing an
awesome bird going to help

us get Harvey the guinea pi
back into his cage?

You'll see!

After we play a different
game with Chandra the Cat

in Sploshy Splash.



♪ There's more than one
way to wear a hat! ♪

♪ Doing it differently's,
where it's at. ♪

♪ Like Olivia Ostrich.

♪ Who runs but can't fly.

♪ Doing it differently's
sure worth a try. ♪

[giggles]

Welcome to SPLOSHY SPLASH.

What game are we
going to play?

We could play
Catch the Fish!

Hey!
Catch the Fish!

No, no no not you,
Fish.

I mean a wild fish!

Hm...I'd be pretty
wild if you caught me!

I don't think this is a
good game for Chandra.

Cats don't like the water.

Why don't we ask her?

You'll find
Chandra over there!

Okay!

Hello! Do you want to play
Catch the Fish?

Sure!

Only, I've been sitting
here a long time and

I have not seen any
fish to catch.

When you need fish to
catch, here's what you do:

Whistle real loud for
Thing One and Thing Two.

[whistles]



Ta-da!



[giggles]

We can't catch fish,
but we can catch Things!

Thanks.
- OK.

Ready, steady, go!

[LAUGHTER and GIGGLES]

Catching Things is hard!

Not for a top
Thing-catcher like me.

Yahoo!



[giggles]
This should do the trick!

WHOA!
Wha!

Agh!

Whoa!

[COUGH SPLUTTER]
Ugh! I'm wet!

My hat's WET!

Sally, you were right.
Cats don't like water.

[laughs]

It's okay,
Chandra.

You don't have play
if you don't want to.

But I DO want to play!

WOW!

Go Chandra Go!

[LAUGHS PLAYFULLY]

Yay!

That was awesome!

You swim really well!

Of course I do.

I'm a Fishing Cat!

I did say cats like
Chandra are special.

This game has
made me hungry.

I need to go and find
something to eat.

Goodbye!
- Catch you later!

Chandra's so cool.

Other cats hate water
but she loves it!

That sure is different.

But how's fishing with a
cool cat going to help us

get Harvey the guinea
pig back into his cage?

I dunno...

but it's sure
fun finding out!

And I know you will, after
playing a 'different' game

with Toshi the fish
in OOOEY GOOEY.

Our last stop!

♪ There's more than one
way to wear a hat! ♪

♪ Doing it differently's
where it's at. ♪

♪ Like Chandra the Cat!

♪ Who enjoys a good swim.

♪ Keep playing the game
- you're sure to win! ♪

[laughing]

Welcome to OOEY GOOEY!

Home of Toshi the fish.

Oooweee!

That's looks gooey!

At some times of day this
place is full of sea water.

Then the sea water goes
away and leaves it like this.

Will the sea water
come back again?

Always does.



What game are we going
to play with Toshi?

How about hide and seek?

Yes!
- Let's go!

Cat, are you going
to tell Toshi?

No.
He's playing already.

We have to find him.

That's easy.

Fish live in water.

You are so right!

So Toshi must be in
one of those pools.

He's not in here!

He's not in here,
either.

Where can he be?

We need a clue!

You're looking down and
you should be looking up!

Up?

Toshi!

A fish in a tree?

Cool!

Meet Toshi the Mudskipper!

That's a really different
sort of hiding place

for a fish!

Awww, it's
nothing special.

I climb up mangrove roots
every time the sea goes out!

But why?

It's a good place
to look for food.

I'd love to stay and talk
but I've got to go eat

before the sea returns.

Wow!
Toshi can walk too!

Sure can.

Bye!
- Bye!

Your friends sure do
things differently, Cat.

Isn't it wonderful?

And if you have a problem
You'd like to work through.

Why not do things
differently

Like my special friends do.

Hey!
Now I get it!

You do?

We need to try something
different to get Harvey

back in his cage!

That's a great idea!

My you're so clever!

Doing it differently is
the name of the game!

Hmm, Olivia, Chandra
and Toshi each solved a

problem by doing something
completely differently.

It works for them and
it can work for you!

How about instead of
trying to find Harvey,

we let Harvey find us?

Yeah!
That's very different.

I bet he's hungry too.

Oh Carrots are
his favorite.

Harvey!

It worked!

Doing things differently
is fun but there's still

only one way to celebrate!

Really?
- What is it?

YAHOO!
[laughs] YIPEE!

Psst.
Hey kids,

wanna to find
out more stuff

about animals,
plants and well fish?

[Laughs]
