Hey, scientists, it'’s

Me--sid.

There'’s no school today, so my

Friends are coming over for a

Play date.

We'’re gonna put on a show in my

Back yard, and you'’re invited.

Come join me.

"Sid the science kid" coming up

Next.

♪ I want to know why things

Happen and how and I want to

Know everything now--oh, yeah!

Why does that stuff change?

How does that do what

It just did? Hmm

What'’s up with the sky?

Do you think I could fly?

The world is spinning

And I want to know why

I got a lot of questions

And big ideas

I'’m sid the science kid ♪

It'’s time to get up for school.

Wake up.

Hey, dad, you'’re really excited

This morning.

Is today a special day?

Don'’t you remember?

Today'’s a holiday. No school.

Oh, right.

There'’s no school today.

Yeah, so get dressed and

Come on down to the kitchen.

I'’m making your favorite

Breakfast--pancakes.

Yay! Thanks, dad.

Ok.

Oh, I can'’t believe I forgot

There'’s no school today.

This is gonna be the best day

Ever.

Ha ha! Oh, wait a minute.

Maybe this isn'’t going to be the

Best day ever.

If there'’s no school, then that

Means I won'’t see my friends and

We won'’t have rug time with

Teacher susie and we won'’t

Investigate in the super fab lab

And we won'’t have playtime.

I love school.

Hmm, what am I going to do today

If there'’s no school?

Sid, your pancakes are ready.

Ooh, pancakes. Yummy.

Guess I better go get changed.

[Hums]

Ha ha! Ta-da!

Now I'’m ready.

[Hums]

Breakfast time!

So, sid, you ready for your

Day home from school?

I guess so, but you know

What?

I think I'’m gonna miss going to

School, and I'’m really going to

Miss my friends.

Really?

So it would be nice to see your

Friends on your day off from

School?

It sure would.

[Doorbell rings]

Oh, I better go see who it

Is.

Sid, sweetie, you remember a

Couple of weeks ago, I asked if

You wanted your friends to come

Over on your day off from

School?

Oh, yeah.

I forgot.

♪ Hello

♪ Hello

♪ Hello

Hello, sid.

Hi, guys.

Well, look who'’s

Here--gabriela, gerald, and may.

How wonderful to see you.

Oh. Wonderful to see you,

Too, sid'’s mom.

Welcome to my house, guys.

This is gonna be the best play

Date ever.

Come on.

Follow me to my back yard.

Ok.

Have fun, kids.

Oh, wow.

Wow, look at the tree house.

I love this back yard.

Ooh, let'’s play a game.

Oh, yeah.

Somebody kick the ball.

Oh, I will.

Go, go, gabriela.

Yay!

Hmm, well, now what do we do?

I don'’t know.

I bet you guys can come up

With something to do.

You have a tree house out here,

A big yard.

Just think about your favorite

Things to do.

Ok.

Well, at school, my favorite

Thing is investigating in the

Super fab lab, so

Maybe we can explore out here,

Too.

Ooh, my favorite thing at

School is rug time.

How about you, fluffles?

"I like rug time, too."

I like making up new games at

Playtime.

Lunch time.

That'’s my favorite thing at

School.

Hey, I know something we all

Like to do at school.

What, sid?

♪ We...

♪ All...

♪ Like...

Uh, chocolate cake?

No.

Oh. Dolphins.

No.

Umbrellas?

No.

Oh, I know. To sing.

Yeah!

♪ To sing

Wow, we know so many songs,

We could put on a whole show,

Oh, and this can be our stage.

Great idea, gabriela, and we

Can perform for my mom, dad, and

Zeke.

Ah, that'’s great.

Wait, wait.

We have to sing on a stage in

Front of sid'’s parents?

I'’ve never sung in a show

Before.

I'’m not going first, ok?

Hey, it'’s ok, may.

You can sing whenever you'’re

Ready.

Thanks, sid.

Hey, hey, I have an idea.

See, we can decorate the stage,

And, oh, these benches over

Here, those can be the seats for

The audience.

That'’s a great idea, gerald.

Ok. Let'’s get ready for the

Show, and I'’ll go get my cd

Player.

I'’ll move the benches.

Oh, may, may, look.

We can decorate the stage.

Ok.

All right.

Got the cd in the cd player,

Fresh batteries, all set.

View looks good, and the

Seats are ready.

Wow.

Wow, this place looks great.

I'’m gonna go get our audience.

Ok. Ha ha!

Hey, mom, dad, zeke.

It'’s show time.

Oh, boy, here they come.

Oh, looks like the kids went

All out.

Oh, my, this place looks like

A real stage.

I love it.

It sure does.

Hello, and

Welcome to the show.

Tickets, please.

Oh, mort, did you remember

The tickets?

Why, yes. I did.

Here you go, sir.

Wow, front-row seats, pretty

Fancy.

Follow me, please. Ha ha!

Ah, yes.

Here we have a special chair for

The little one.

High chair.

That'’s right, zeke.

And for sir and madam--ah.

Allow me.

Just need to straighten up.

There we are. You may sit.

Oh, my, thank you, sir.

Hey, arnie, made it to the

Show.

And now please enjoy the

Show.

Thank you, gerald.

Ok. Let'’s go. Let's go ahead.

Yeah. This is gonna be

Perfect.

Hello, everyone.

I'’d like to welcome you

To..."The science song show."

Yay!

And now for our first act,

Gabriela will sing you her

Favorite song.

Go, gabriela.

Thank you. Hello out there.

Hi, gabriela.

Hey, do you know what I like

Doing?

What?

I like gathering information

And recording data.

That'’s not what I would

Have guessed.

Hey, I love data, too.

So do you know what I like

Checking out?

Monkeys?

No.

Waffles?

No.

The best way to record data

Is with a chart.

That'’s right.

I like checking out charts.

Hit it.

Way to go, gabriela.

Ok, may. You want to sing next?

No. Not me. I'’m not ready.

Oh, no problem.

I guess I'’ll sing next.

Ok.

So I'’d like to sing about my

Favorite science tool--a

Magnifying glass.

Hey, why do they call it a

Magnifying glass, anyway?

I mean, it'’s not like a real

Glass that you pour juice into.

I'’ve never walked into the

Kitchen and said, "hey, mom, can

I have some orange juice in a

Magnifying glass?"

Pour juice into a magnifying

Glass?

Now, that'’s funny. Ha ha ha!

You know, a song about a

Magnifying glass would be much

Better if I actually had a real

Magnifying glass.

If only someone would bring me a

Magnifying glass right about

Now.

Ooh, here you go, sid.

Thanks, gabriela.

Sorry.

You must have read my mind.

And now "I magnify."

Interview two people from our

Audience, so let'’s see.

Who'’d like to be interviewed?

Um, how about you two?

Oh, I was hoping you'’d pick

Us.

Ok.

First question--how many leaves

Would you guess are on that

Tree?

Hmm, well, I'’d say maybe

, .

Oh, well, that seems

About right.

Oh, wait a minute.

You'’re asking us to make an

Estimation.

Oh, oh, are you going to sing

The estimation song?

That'’s my favorite song.

Yeah. I love that song.

I'’m not going to sing

The estimation song.

You are. That'’s right.

You'’re going to be in our show.

Oh, I can'’t believe it.

We get to be in the show, alice.

Got.

Making your best guess.

Game.

You have to try and guess

Gerald'’s favorite song.

Hello, back yard! Ha!

My favorite song is about the

Round things that make

Tricycles, scooters, and this

Wagon roll.

Wheels.

That'’s right.

Hello, everyone.

I have a big dream.

When I grow up, I want to be a

Sing about someone else who has

Big dreams, but this song is not

About a person.

Till I'’m a big rain cloud

So the little, white cloud

Floated over the plain

In the paper

That all a cloud needs

Is a whole lot of water vapor

I'’m gonna say it loud

She grew into the biggest cloud

They fed all the plants

We'’re singing your songs in a

Show.

Oh, susie, now that you'’re

Here, you can sing with us in

Our big show finale.

Oh, I would be honored.

Hey, maybe we should sing a song

That celebrates the way everyone

Is able to hear your beautiful

Voices singing.

Ooh, a song about using our

Ears to hear sounds.

Right, and how do sounds

Travel through the air?
