getting chased by lots of bees so he
jumped into a pond and he died and so he
has the two gravestones and here's the
writing on the r*pe stones and then a
bunch of people came to the funeral and
I cried big puddles of tea
hmm fans would die that's why I kind of
knew what it was because I have that
story but I come local good good that's
out what that what was that what's up
what's up when you feel unhappy what
makes you feel better we're learning
happier I like to be by myself I go up
to my room and turn on my radio as loud
as possible so I can't hear myself think
but I feel bad I talked to my friends I
was a good walk I go to my room and wait
there until I get happier I read a buck
when I'm unhappy I usually pout or feel
really sad and sometimes I cry when
sometimes I just go to my room when I'm
unhappy I go to bed when I'm unhappy I
said in my flat and so I'm calm when I'm
unhappy
I either cry or I talk to my parents
about it makes me feel better
welcome to cafes and today we're making
flared popsicles sent in by will W of
Pella Iowa and Caitlyn B of dung Lauren
Virginia you need three different kinds
of juice tin foil and popsicle sticks to
make them okay pour your first layer of
juice but one third of the way up from
the muffin tins go okay
my first layer is cranberry juice I like
cranberry juice oops okay now I'm going
to take the tin foil and I'm gonna
tightly cover it over the top of the
muffin tin tightly and you might want to
press on it so you can see the outline
of the circle muffin tin now carefully
using a knife I'm gonna make tiny slits
not better than the width of the
popsicle stick and if you're not allowed
to use a knife ask an adult for help
now the popsicles be very careful
because of that perfect weight yeah put
them in the freezer for two hours or
until they're completely frozen here are
the ones that are already frozen you
carefully remove the tinfoil okay this
is what it looks like now I'm going to
add the second layer this time I'm using
orange when yours my favorite number you
need have room for one more layer now
you don't need to put the tinfoil back
on because a popsicle stick should be
set then you put them in the freezer for
another two hours
now here's what it looks like with two
layers now I'm going to add my third and
my last layer I'm these grape there we
go don't fill it up too much because
then they'll just go all over the place
here
grape kind of looks like cranberry next
to the orange then you put them in the
freezer for two hours again and now this
is what it looks like with three layers
to get them out you might want to put
them
and a pan filled with warm water after
20 or 30 seconds they should be loose
enough to I'm gonna spin this one a
little so it's not stuck okay you can
use any flavor you want you can make on
all such as pop using lemonade orange
juice or grape fruit juice or you can
make a very blast using cherry
strawberry and raspberry juice be
creative don't Appetit
my name is Layla and I'm 13 years old
I've loved horses all my life I can't
explain it I just love them I spend all
my free time down here at disable I like
taking care of horses just as much as I
like riding
I'm brushing her it's just to get all
the dust and all the extra hair off
get her clean just like you brush your
hair you brush your horses hair just a
lot more of it
some people think you have to be rich to
ride horses but I'm not rich I help out
at the stables and I always get a chance
to ride
when I was 11 I broke my shoulder
jumping the horse bucked and threw me
off but after my shoulder healed I
wasn't afraid to get back on the horse
because I learned what I did wrong
I didn't lean back when your horse
bucked when a horse is bucking they're
tilting you this way this is their body
though going that way they're trying to
buck you off forward so what you want to
do is you want to lean back you're going
to take their head this I'm going to
lean pull back on them and lean back
bring their head up and bring their butt
down it was horse rears you're going to
lean up like you're going to a jump give
them as much rain to push them down this
is beauty beauty is the first horse I've
ever gotten a chance to train I'm
especially proud that I tell her to jump
loving a horse when you're teaching is
the best way because they need to feel
relaxed around you and they need to
trust you for you to teach them or else
it doesn't work when I'm feeling sad
horses make me feel good I talked to
them and they seemed to listen it's also
good to give them hugs and kisses it
comforts you and it comforts them
hey Lisa yeah
why was the boys surprised to find
cucumbers growing out of his ears
I know because he planted hey Kenny
can you hear this now put your ear up to
the table listen to it as it's on now
it's a lot louder well Abigale a a Fort
Worth Texas sent us this balloon phenom
she says when you put your ear up
against the table you can hear the sound
vibrating through it but when you take
your ear away this I have traveled
through the air which make the sound
seem not as loud okay now I have a
phenom for you can you hear this clock
ticking barely try with the yardstick up
to your ear well that is so cool you can
feel the klog vibrating I can hear it's
like so loudly it's kind of like when I
had my um head up to the table listening
to the tapping of the spoon it's it's a
lot louder so Salma's travel better
through solids right yeah instant replay
so you can hear what I hear
do you want to try it with other things
hold on this is really cool hypnotizing
Oh God open like this yeah ready eat one
two three push Wow louder
yeah wait your is cold
I can hear it turn out wow these things
worked really well see if you can find
something at your house to test this out
hey ray look at me what kind of years do
trains have I don't know engineer boom
boom yeah there's it I have a new baby
brother
his name is Peter do you have brothers
and sisters how do you get along with
them karinna a*s Lexington Massachusetts
anybody have a little brother I have a
younger sister and sometimes we get
along really good and the like play
together and play games that she likes
to play so she make her happy and
there's then there's some times where he
really aggravated at each other I have
an older brother and like he's six years
older than me and he's old and him and
when we were little we used to always
fight and he'd hold my head like this so
I tried to punch him and I couldn't
because he was too far away and we would
fight every day about everything new it
was just no stopping us and I was like I
hate this when all this stuff and my mom
said it was the same thing with her
younger brother and then after a while
they just went shared and they like you
know became good friends and I was like
that's never gonna happen and then it
actually did now we're like he's just
someone good to talk to about my day I
can be like hey guess what happened
today fell and he'll be like what Noto I
have an older brother
he's were three years apart um and we
least like really fight all the time I
don't know what but then we just like
matured he got like a girlfriend and
then we've been like I have a brother
and a sister
and me and my brother get along pretty
well we're four years difference but I
don't know why we just get along and my
sister and me our two years different
and we still play it's like the same
amount kind of she's old a little yeah
well for me I have a brother who's six
years older than me and he's like the
only brother I get along with
everybody know how many brothers do you
have I have an extreme amount I have
seven brothers really well and I have
one sister so cool it's kind of well
actually I get along with all them
sometimes but the only one I constantly
get along with his Jeremy and he's six
years older than me it's like every time
my little brother they want to do
something that I don't want to do
because he's three years younger than me
and I want to do something like Jessica
do you want to go rolling down a hill
and I'll say oh well not really and
because it doesn't sound so fun but then
you know then I might go do with him and
I turn out it turns out to be fun but
big kid again yeah but I don't usually
get along with him and I you really
never get along with my sister
people are you guys doing like you get
into an argument with your brothers and
sisters we yelled what are you very
lovely who ever yelled what is well
actually that's kind of how it works
it's like if you can prove that you're
like it being the tougher one in this
situation for some reason that's how
almost all the arguments end up because
it's usually the older one obviously and
so I think there's an advantage to being
older because then all the younger ones
are likes at home it's too hectic and
say whatever whatever okay you wouldn't
yeah yeah I don't want to like stress
myself like it yeah you don't want to
fight anymore and you really think that
you're right but you're like okay so you
won okay you're right I wasn't tired
then I hadn't arguing I had like a long
argument sometimes from screaming so
much but what I really can't stand is
when my brothers or well I say it's only
our brothers but they like I'm watching
TV and they turn the station just to
annoy me don't do it because they want
to watch something they do it because
they know it's going to annoy you
and so then you calmly say I'm Brandon
can you please turn that back I was
watching that but I'm watching this
sometimes enhancer my sister when I'm we
get into an argument I feel like I want
to be like right all the time but I know
I shouldn't so I'm like I'm arguing with
it for a long time and then I just like
walk away because I don't want to get
into anything bigger I don't feel
there's a point to arguing yes
and then when my older brothers walk
away I'm like why are you everything
like even though we fight I still like
my brother he's cool yeah that's gonna
stir and that's how you get along
lets you see Bronx New York
phantasm structions of how to make a
strange telephone with two plastic cups
some string and paper clip first the
poke hole and eat in the body of each
pasty okay good so it should look like
this then take a piece of string and
measure about 3 arms pains and lakes
okay one you've got pretty long arms oh
okay oh just make this a bigger okay
then you poke the string through the
bottom of the cup go through here this
is a good home okay thank you you're
okay now you tie the paper club to the
string yeah cuz if you do just a knot no
no heart won't work not that hard when
you have little already kind of stink no
nope
then do the same thing with the other
cup and the other end of the string how
do you think it's going to work well I
think that when you talk into the cup
the bottom will go like pushing push up
push it and then that will push the
string and well not from the breath not
from our breath from the sound like the
vibration cuz I'm just colors by
vibration like like when you hum or
something so the sound will go through
the string like this then I'll go to
your cup and you'll hear well okay okay
let's go booooo-whoo okay wait tighten
okay let's try something else
same cups but different string like
fishing water oh cool that might work
really good this string is all different
pieces of thread so maybe it takes
longer or doesn't do as good when the
sound travels through and since the
fishing line is just one piece
it might work really good and we thought
the last note ah I know
okay jamika tighter yeah that's right
now we have to get really tight cuz this
kind of hits for it oh all right there
we go this conversation didn't we hear
it's a fancy save again awesome I could
hear some like clanging thing again the
paper clip against the cup those or like
it it kind of sounded softer though
didn't it I think so I think the string
worked better and why though why do you
think that well maybe because this is
sort of thick really thick hmm and it
might be kind of hard for the noise to
go through like this oh I'm so happy at
least where I know now it's time for you
to experiment think of a question that
you want answered like what is the
farthest distance you can get your
telephone to work
using string with the sound go farther
if you use an empty soup can instead of
plastic cups what about two different
sized cups make a prediction then test
on your question and send the results to
zoom box three five Oh Boston Mass Oh
two ones before be sure to tell us what
you thought was going to happen and what
actually did happen also check out the
