boy and he had no arms and he was

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
