play this game called buddy tag it's a
really cool game to play with a lot of
people and it's called buddy tag because
you have to hold on to a buddy to avoid
being tagged Crystal J of Salt Lake City
Utah emailed us the directions to play
you have to pick one person to be it and
one person to be the runner alen is
going to be it and Kay's going to be the
runner everyone else has to find a buddy
and Link arms all right now elen tries
to tag Kaye to avoid being it Kaylee has
to link arms with another
buddy okay now Kaylee safe but the
person on the other side of the pair
will Matt he's now the runner all right
so Matt you
run this game grew on forever so we're
just going to stop playing when we run

M welcome to Cafe Zoom I really like
vegetables but if you don't here's a fun
way to eat them it's a vegetable parfait
it's like an ice cream parfait but
instead of layering ice cream you use
vegetables see how there's a layer of
celery carrots cucumbers and tomato
Tomatoes Shay L of Massachusetts emailed
us this recipe here's what you'll need
besides your favorite vegetables you'll
need your favorite salad dressing I'm
using Italian and a clear plastic cup
first peel and wash your vegetables and
then chop them all up like
this then start layering your cup with
your
veggies I'm going to start with
celery looks really
good can't wait to eat
it then the
[Music]
carrots put a little more one more scoop
I really like cucumbers so I'm going to
put a
lot I like it cuz it has no lettuce and
I don't really like lettuce so all right
and finally your tomatoes
[Music]
really looks really
good and finally to top it off put your
favorite salad dressing on
top shake it up a little
bit let that soak through
dig in chases these scrum didly ous bone
[Music]
Appetit it's really
good what's up what's up what's up
what's up what's up what's up what's up
what's up what's up what's up what's
your favorite school lunch my favorite
school lunch is spaghetti and meatballs

favorite school lunch is tacos
cheeseburgers W with
pickles ketchup
mustard lettuce and tomato and for
dessert pudding with whipped cream on

[Music]
ooh welcome to zoom side in the kitchen
Watch How I magically turn this liquid
from the color red to the color blue and
then back to red
again okay
ready Stir It
Up Now it's blue now I'm going to change
it back to
bed oh no oh no oh no oh no oh
no wow that's really really cool well
you're probably wondering how I did this
the red juice is cabbage juice and when
I added baking soda to it it turned blue
and then when he added vinegar to it it
turned back to Red the reason this
happens is because the cabbage juice has
a chemical reaction when it's mixed with
other chemicals which makes it change
colors when it's mixed with a base like
baking soda it turns blue and it's when
it's mixed with an acid like vinegar it
stays red
Jacob F of appal luus Louisiana emailed
us this sigh to make your own red
cabbages indicator first grate some red
cabbage into a container like I did
right here then cover your red cabbage
with cold water like this and let it sit
and after about 45 minutes the water
should turn red like this then strain
your red cabbage juice into a container
and now you have your red
cabbage juice now we can use the cabbage
juice to test whether the chemical is an
acid or a base if the chemical is an
acid it will turn a shade of red and if
the chemical is a base it will turn a
shade of blue so what what chemicals do
you want to
use um I think that maybe we should use
lemon juice cuz we know it's a strong
acid so we can see okay much and how
about we add window cleaner window
cleaner it's um I think that because you
clean things with it um and because it's
soapy and bases are usually soapy yeah
and um do you want to use Cola because
we don't know if that's an acid or base
okay so let's so Emily use vinegar too
yeah we can also use the vinegar right
here okay you got them
okay we have the same amount of cabbage
juice in each of these containers these
four containers are blue because we
added a base baking soda by adding a
base we can see how much of each of
these liquids it takes to get the cow
juice back to its original reddish color
the stronger the acid the less will have
to use to get the cabbage juice to its
original
color here's a cup of just cabbage juice
the reason we're not putting any baking
soda in it is because it's our control
we're trying to make all the chemicals
match that color and we have permission
to use any of these chemicals so let's
let's start with window cleaner okay so
let's see how many of these it will take
to get back to that c okay ready
so that's good that's
good
[Music]
one
good
[Music]
two
good oh doesn't seem to be turning red
at all let's try a couple more see if
it's it's going to start to turn red
red okay let's
see okay it doesn't seem like it's
turning red at all no so we know that
this is not an acid it is a base base
okay so that was window creeper so let's
try the cola now
okay here's
[Music]
one see what that did that do anything
nah nope but it could let's see what
happens with this
so that's two not turning much of the
color nope
[Music]
three
[Applause]
six 7 okay doesn't seem like it's going
to turn yeah I don't think it's going to
turn so we know that this Cola isn't
much of an acid no 100 Lem juice this
lemon juice okay I predict this is going
to turn back to um the cabbage juice
color yeah kind of do it
okay oo comes out fast so there's one oh
wow that's really that's turning red
already okay here's two here why don't
you mix it up a little bit
okay wo okay okay I think we went too
much yeah
actually's let's
compare wow that is really light these
two are like totally light so I say that
took about one two okay so now let's try
the vinegar okay there's
one okay so that turned a little purple
it's going to um take about five or so
five me too five or four
two now pretty close so pretty close you
want to try another one okay yeah it's
still a little dark a little
darker
three wow one more this is four yeah
this is four wow I think that is
definitely it is that it I think so yeah
that's it yeah so four so now let's
stick this right in here okay so here's
our order lemon juice and vinegar both
changed the cabbage juice back to red
but since we use the least amount of
lemon juice to get back to its original
color we know it is the most acidic and
vinegar came in second place since we
used tons of cola and it still didn't
change the cabbage juice back to its
original color we know that it's not
very acidic at
all so it goes there in third place and
no matter how much of the window cleaner
we added we could never get the bread C
juice back to its original color so that
must mean that the window cleaner isn't
an acid either so that goes in fourth
try experimenting with other liquids and
cabbage juice and send your discoveries
to zoom
[Music]
I'm Alex I'm 11 years old I'm from Mal
Massachusetts and I'm a candle
pinb I come here about twice a week went
to practice and one for my le my average
is about 90 kopen bowling was invented
in Massachusetts in the late 1800s and
is now played throughout New England
Canada and in some parts of
Germany canopen bowling got its name
because these pins from far away look
like candles on a birthday
cake the objective of the game is to
take this ball and bow it 60 ft into 10
of these pins
and hopefully it'll hit the pins candle
pin differs from 10 pin because the pins
are skinnier and the ba*ls are smaller
in 10 pin you only get two ba*ls per 10
but in candle pin you get
[Music]
three this is what I practice with and
this is the motion you really want to
get
[Applause]
whoa I just picked up a
[Music]
spare that's a gutter ball you
definitely don't want to get one of
those when you get one of those it's a
waste of a ball it's it's a ball for
nothing now see when that ball was in
the gutter
it rolled out and hit that other pin see
that pin doesn't count for anything it's
useless now what you don't want to do is
cross the line then it' be a foul so you
lose all your
[Applause]
[Music]
points I like goinging because it's good
exercise and it's a lot of
fun you see that was a strike
hey
alen
yes why did the polar bear go to the
South
Pole I don't know to visit his
Antarctica Antarctica is what so
[Music]
[Music]
funny yeah
into action here's the members of the
Zoom team students at the Kea Elementary
School in Scottdale Arizona held an art
auction to raise money for an
organization to help kids and their
families they sold their drawings and
paintings and were able to raise
90,000 here they are with some of their
artwork together with her classmates Ali
h of Hermosa Beach California
participated in her school's can drive
Alice's class collected
180 cans of food if you're interested in
having an auction or a can drive but
aren't you how to get started go to the

team guine assic Park by John and
Mitchell G of Overland Park
Kansas welcome Dr Allan Grant to guinea
AIC Park notice that we have these
electrical fences around our park to
keep our animals safe inside look at
these lovely Plante eaing dinosaurs this
park is surely fascinating too bad the
car broke down well whatever I'll just
walk around and look at the Plante
eating dinosaur
suddenly oh my gosh it's a
pterodactyl I see smoke that mountain
over there must be a volcano ah it's a
volcano and it's erupting ah the fences
must have failed because of the volcano
the evil T-Rex is out in the wild ah
here he comes he's trying to eat us run
away this
the
[Music]
[Music]
end see this very dull Penny Adriana F
of Prescott Arizona sent us a way to
clean it using lemon juice to do this
you put a penny into lemon juice after
about 5 minutes take the penny out of
the lemon juice all right then take a
paper towel and rub it
off like
this all
right the new Penny should be much
brighter and look like this and the old
Penny should look like this when pennies
are made they're shiny but after a while
they lose their shine because the oxygen
in the air combines with the copper in
the penny this gives it a dull coating
called an oxide the acid in the lemon
juice chemically removes the oxide
making the penny shiny again we're going
to experiment with different liquids to
see which one makes the penny the
brightest remember when Nini and Matt
tested the strengths of acid using red
cabbage juice well they found out that
lemon juice was the strongest acid
vinegar was a medium acid and cola was a
pretty weak acid let's try tomato juice
because it's kind of sour so I think it
has a little bit of acid in it so all
right let's test it out okay I'll take
I'll take the cola then all right
put this here all right so vinegar goes
first right mhm my hypothesis is that
stronger acids make the penni is
brighter because it reacts more with the
oxide so I think that lemon juice will
work the best because I think it has a
higher acidity level than the others and
tomato would go in last okay cool all
right so you want to test it out yeah
all right so then vinegar would go in
this
glass yeah
I'll hold it thank
you uh that's enough right that's enough
all
right and and then the
[Applause]
cola okay this is so cool I can't wait
to see what's going to happen I want to
see how they react how they're going to
turn out I'm sure the I think the lemon
juice to will be the strongest but I
don't know there could be something
really cool that happens like it could
yeah it changes it could be the tomato
juice probably that'd be really
surprising but that'd be cool all
right
this that's good yeah okay it's a big
moment I know okay right so you want to
I'll put one in all right now that two
one two three okay so now we need to
wait five
minutes let's check them out okay so
I'll take the P the vinegar out oh all
right so you can rinse it off and then I
I'll do the
cola this is cool I can't wait to see
It'll be cool lining them all up there
you go all right this one left so much
cleaner than
before here it
is it's got like a tint of red all
right waiting for the tomato
juice all right cool so actually I think
the the tomato juice tomato juice is the
brightest yeah wow that was totally
different than our hypothesis let's see
what did did it work better than the
lemon juice let's check yes yeah the
tomato juice did work the best that's so
weird we thought that would be totally
different we thought the vinegar would
go then the then the cola then the
tomato juice but totally was different I
think that tomato juice made the penny
the shiniest lemon juice then came in
second mhm and col and vinegar are sort
of equally the same they both pretty
equal yeah we didn't get to test out all
the liquids in our cabinet why don't you
get permission to test them out and make
sure you send any discoveries you make
to
zoom hey
lenie yeah how many paws does a polar
bear
have
four nope one
paw and one
m one m like Mom Mommy
[Music]
