let's go get the costumes

[Music]

and boy there are lots of ways to learn

about jobs in here

there are but we've just learned little

things here not big grown-up things oh

but little things can become very very

grown up things

[Music]

I guess I'll just keep learning things

[Music]

[Music]

I guess I'll just keep learning things a

little at a time and I think I'll start

right now

because we learn big things

[Music]

when I grow up I like to write a book

but I wonder if I'll know how I guess

I'll just keep learning things a little

at a time and I think I'll start right

now

because we learn big things

[Music]

I guess I'll just keep learning things a

little at a time and I think I'll start

right now

because we learn big things

[Music]

we're learning a lot in school I thought

we were just having fun learning is fun

and if you keep learning you can do any

job you want to

but which are the girl jobs and which

are the boy jobs my mommy says that men

and women can do the very same job

any job they like so why don't you show

me some of the things you like to do

okay come on okay

the zoo

I like looking through telescopes then

maybe you'll grow up to look through a

big telescope and see the stars in space

that's called being an astronomer

and I like dancing

so you could grow up to be a dancer or a

dance teacher

one too you know Carpenter spilled big

houses maybe that would be a good job

for you oh yeah a job how come grown-ups

need jobs anyway oh there are lots of

reasons people need jobs so they can

make different things or so they can

help other people even because doing

their job is fun and I know another

reason people have jobs so they can make

some money but why do they need money

follow us we'll show you okay lead the

way

56.23 cents

[Music]

yay oh good job see people work for

money so they can buy food and clothing

and all the other things families need

that's right now but don't forget those

other reasons that grown-ups have jobs

I like helping other people all right

oh a teacher is a person who gives help

each and every day if you'd like to help

people then being a teacher is

A-Okay

cause people helping other people is

what this world's about and people like

our teachers we couldn't do without

oh a doctor is a person who gives help

each and every day if you like to help

people then being a doctor is

A-Okay

cause people helping other people is

what this world's about and people like

our doctors we couldn't do that

the police are people who give help each

and every day if you like to help people

then joining the police is a okay

cause people helping others

[Music]

there were lots of other people who give

help each and every day if you'd like to

help people then helping other people is

A-Okay

cause people helping other people is

what this world's about and the people

who are helping other people

[Music]
