- Daniel, you need
to be calm in the store.

- Okay.
- Okay, we're almost done.

We need to get some bananas now.
- I'll get them! I'll get them!

Hmm...

(giggling)
Ooh! Ooh! Ahh! Ahh!

I'm a monkey! I love bananas!

Ahh, ahh! Ooh, ooh!

Oh no!
- Daniel,

this is why I asked you
to be calm.

- But... I like being silly.

- It's okay to be silly
sometimes, but not
when we're in a store.

Let's calm down so you don't
bump into anything else.

the oatmeal. How can I help?

together?

- All right.

Mm-hmm.

There. I think
that's all of them.

for helping, Daniel!

Now... we just need
one more thing...

Blueberries.

Can you find them

my calm helper tiger.

I'll finish up
with these groceries.

- Would you like to come wait
outside with me and Margaret
while Mom finishes up?

- Okay!

Dad... Since we're not
in the store anymore,

can I be a silly
monkey now?

- Yes, that's a great idea,
Daniel! Now that we're outside,

you can be silly.

Ugga mugga.

Let's go see some neighbors!

- Hi, I'm Camille, and today I'm
going to meet some of the people
who make guitars.

This is my friend Leslie.

Leslie, this is
such a big place!

- It is! There's over people
that work here, and they're
all building guitars!

You wanna go take a look?
- Yeah.
- Come on!

This is Rod. Rod's
cutting the guitar backs

using a laser cutter.
So the guitar top gets cut,

and then the guitar back gets
cut. That's what it looks like

when he's done cutting it.

So, Camille, this is Chris, and
what Chris does is he puts glue

on the top and the back
and puts it in this form

and squeezes it together like a
sandwich, and then when it's dry

it looks like...
- A guitar!
- Right!

- Hello.
- Hello!

- So what Mike is doing, he's
shaping the neck of the guitar.

- What do you like
about your job?
- Guitars make music,

and music makes people happy!

- I'd like to
introduce you to Greg.
- Hello, how are you today,

Camille? Nice to meet you.

- Greg puts the
strings on the guitar.
- Would you like to try one?

- Yes.
- You can do it, sure.

Ready?
- Yeah.

- I sound like an elephant.

- That's right, Miss Elaina.

- This is my guitar.
- Ooh, great sound.

And what do you think
your guitar sounds like?

- Umm... maybe a frog?

A hopping frog! Boing,
boing, boing, boing!

- Heeey, I like that!

Frog guitar! Ha, ha, ha!

- And listen to my trumpet!

It sounds like a... train!

A tchoo-tchoo trumpet train!

making it sound like the rain!

- I love listening
to all your instruments!

(cheering)

We are going to tell a story
about an elephant, a frog,

a train and a rainstorm.

- I'm ready! Boom, boom, boom!
I'm the elephant! Right, Dad?

- That's right, Miss Elaina.

But only play your drum when
I say 'elephant' in the story.

Once upon a time,
an elephant took a walk.

- Boom, boom, boom!

- And she met
a hoppy frog.

- Ribbit!
- The elephant said:

let's dance and play!
(giggling)

- Boom! Boom! Boom!
- The frog said...
- Boom! Boom!

- Miss Elaina, I'm the frog.

It's my turn to play.
- Oops!

Sorry, Daniel.
- The frog said...

"I'd be hoppy to."
Hop. Hop. Hop. But then,

it started to rain.

- Boom, boom, boom!
Boom, boom, boom!

- Miss Elaina, it's Katerina, O
and Prince Wednesday's turn now.

They are the rain.
It was raining.

The elephant and the frog
were getting wet.

- MY TURN! Boom, boom, boom!
Boom, boom, boom!

- Miss Elaina,
I can't hear my frog.

- But then, they heard a train.
- Boom, boom, boom!

Boom, boom!
- Miss Elaina,

it's my turn! I'm the train!

- Boom, boom, boom!
Boom, boom, boom!

- Miss Elaina?
- Yes, Dad, Dad, Daddy?!

- I know you're excited I'm
here, but you need to calm down

so your friends can play
their instruments, too.

Hi, Neighbor. Whew!
It's hot out here.

Come on in, where
it's nice and cool.

When I was a little girl,
on a hot day like today,

my grandmother would always
make me a nice cold drink.

You might have had a
milkshake... or a smoothie...

but I make something
called a lassi.

You can make one
with a grown-up, too!

Have you ever seen
one of these before?

It's a madani.
See the star at the end?

I use it to mix things,
like a whisk!

My grandma showed me how
to add the yogurt first,

and then...

'Mix, mix, mix around,
until no lumps are found!'

Once the yogurt is smooth,
that's when you know it's time

to add the milk

and sugar.

Ahh, that madani sound
reminds me of my grandma.

'Mix, mix, mix around,
until no lumps are found!'

Do you like to make special
recipes with your family?

See all the little bubbles?
(giggling)

Now... add... ice cubes!

See? Mmm!

Nice and cool.

Grandma would be proud. I wonder
if someone in your neighborhood

has a yummy recipe to share!

Mmm! Bye, Neighbor!
