- Hi, neighbor!

Welcome to my house.

My playhouse!

(Laughing)
come with me.

I'm playing restaurant!

And I'm the cook,
and I'm making noodle soup.

See? Here's some noodles...

(Slurping)
and some cheese...

What else goes in soup?

A pineapple!

- Daniel!
- Oh, that's my mom!

She can play restaurant with us.

Mom, come play in my restaurant!

I made noodle soup.
- Mm! Smells good!

I wish I could have some noodle
soup in your restaurant, daniel,

But right now
I have to go to work.

- Work? But i...

I want you to play with me.
- I know,

But remember how we talked
about my new job?

- I remember.
You're a carpenter.

You build things for people.
- That's right.

And I fix things too!

Today, king friday needs me
to fix some things

In the enchanted garden.

- But... Can't we play first?

- I'm sorry, daniel. We can't.

The stage needs to be fixed
right away.

And since dad
and margaret are out,

I need you to come
to work with me.

- I'm coming to work with you?

But if you're working,
what will I do?

- Well... Look around
for something to take with you.

Help me look around
for something

That we can take
to the enchanted garden.

Hmm... What about that?

No...

Look!

Crayons and paper!

I found crayons and paper
to play with.

Tigey's coming too!
- Great!

Let's go!

(Ding! Ding!)
- Hi, trolley.

- Trolley, please take us
to the enchanted garden.

(Ding! Ding!)
- ♪ We're on our way ♪

♪ To work today,
there is so much to do ♪

♪ Won't you
ride along with me? ♪

♪ Ride along! Won't you ♪

♪ Ride along with me? ♪

(Ding! Ding!)
- Here we go.

Thank you, trolley.
- Thanks, trolley!

Press three red roses.

You can it this time, tigey.

One...

Two...

Three!

Let's go inside.

Whoa, look!

- Ooh. It looks like
the railing broke!

- Oh, no! There's a hole
in the stage too.

- There is...
But I'll patch the hole

With this wood I brought.

This is quite a big job!

Better get to work!
- You can fix anything, mom.

- Thank you, my daniel.

I'll do my best!

- Can I help you fix the stage?

- Hmm. Not this time,
helper tiger.

This is a grown-up job.

Here's a good spot for you
to play while I work, ok?

I can see you from over there.

- Ok.

I wish mom could
play with me right now.

What do you do
when a grown-up is busy?

I have crayons and paper

So... Hmm.

What should I draw?

I know!

I'm going to draw my mom.

Hmm.

Here's my mom.

She's wearing her work clothes,
'cause she's working.

(Tapping)
did you hear that?

That's my mom's hammer.
Tap, tap.

Ooh! I can draw my mom's tools.

Here's the tools...

See, tigey?

Hey, do you want
to make believe with me?

Let's make-believe
that tigey and I are carpenters!

♪ It's so much fun
building new things ♪

♪ Just like mom,
let's build it strong! ♪

♪ Bang, bang! Hits the hammer. ♪
- Woo!

(tinkling music)

Wasn't that grr-ific?

Let's go show my mom.

Mom! Look! Look at my picture!

It's you,
and you're a carpenter!

- I see!

But now I have
to get back to work,

My little tiger.
- Ok, but mom? I just want you

To watch me sing a song, ok?
It goes like this.

♪ 'Tap, tap, tap'
goes the hammer... ♪

Watch, mom! Are you watching?

♪ Vrr, vrr, vrr ♪

- It's important that I finish
fixing this railing.

- But I want you
to play with me!

- Daniel, I want
to play with you too,

But I have to work.

I know you can find
something to do on your own.

Hmm...

Hey, look what I found:

Some boxes.

Mom... Can I use these boxes?

- Sure! It's all for recycling.

- Yeah! Hey...

This isn't just a box.

Here are some stripes
and, umm...

Hmm...

Now I have a...

A rocket! Ready?

... ... ...

... ...

Blast off!

(Giggling)

Wow!

Let's land...

At the north pole!

The snow is falling!

Oh, this white paper

Kind of looks like snow.

Wow, ok.

This is the snow.

Hmm... What can I use

To make a snowman?

...

...

... Snowman!

Here's your eyes.

Here's your carrot nose.

There.

Hey! Look at these.

What can we do with these?
I know!

This is an ice skating pond.

There we go!

I'm skating! Look at me!

Whee!

Let's see if mom
wants to skate too.

(Drill whirring)

I think mom's
still busy working.

It's me, prince wednesday.

Notice anything
different about me?

I'm not wearing my glasses!

Ta-da!

My glasses help me see better,

Especially when I'm
playing soccer. Come on!

Have you ever played soccer?

Yeah, yeah!

I have to kick the ball
between the cones.

Like this... Whoa!

Uh oh! My glasses!

Everything looks a little blurry
without my glasses.

Where are you, silly glasses?

There you are.

Phew! That's better.

I'll try again, but this time,

Glasses, no... Falling... Off!

They fell off again!

Oh, I know!

This is my glasses strap!

It helps my glasses stay on
when I'm playing.

(Gibberish noises)

Ah, much better. Ready?

(Drumroll)

I did it! I did it!

And my glasses didn't fall off!

Do you wear glasses?

You know, I'm the only one

In my class who wears glasses.

The only one!

I wonder if someone in
your neighborhood wears glasses.

Shoo-be-doo-be-doo!

I hope I see you soon!
