hi welcome to Cafe Zoom don't these look
good they're painted cookies but instead
of using real paint I use food curling
to make my designs Bean the M of DCA
Nova Scotia in Canada sent in the recipe
here's what you'll need to make your
painted cookies some flat cookies with a
smooth surface I think sugar cookies
work the best you can make homemade
cookies or use storebox cookie though
I'm using homemade cookies some
confection sugar food coloring as your
paint and cotton slabs for your paint
brushes first you're going to pour your
confection sugar into a
bowl okay then slowly add in some
water like this like that and then
mix I love sugar
consistency and just keep adding a
little water you don't want to add too
much cuz then it might be too watery
this will be the icing for your cookies
and also act as a canvas for your
artwork and you'll know when it's when
your icing is ready cuz it will look
kind of I think it kind of looks like
glue see it kind of looks like glue if
you look at
[Music]
it okay that looks pretty good just make
sure you get all the
them okay now pour some icing onto your
C you can is a knife but I think it's
easiest to just take your spoon and pour
a li on top and spread it with the back
of your spoon cuz you want a nice thick
layer in your
cookie okay and do that for each
[Music]
cookie really
good okay look at
that then put your cookies in the
refrigerator for about an hour so that
the icing can Harden
[Music]
so and I have some cookies that I put in
the refrigerator earlier so the icing is
nice and
hard
okay so to design your cookie you're
going to pull your food coloring into
small little bows like this then taking
a cotton Bob you're going to dip into a
color and make your design so to
Blue I'll make an R for Rachel
so whoa so
cool the color come out so bright it's
really cool like if there's a color that
there not there in the food coloring
like say I want to make purple you can
mix two colors together so I would mix
glue so I'll make little polka dots with
that with
that okay then you would take your
red and put it over the blue polka dots
say
purple oh this is
cool has a little orange in there it's
kind of like tiedye
pols okay so it will look like that now
I'll make a
[Music]
rainbow I think this looks so pretty I
love
this I want the colors to be really
bright so if you want your colors to
look really bright make more than one
layer so I'll just add one more
layer then I'll add some
green oops it's a little red in there
and then I'll add some
[Music]
blue there my cookies now you're going
to leave your cookies out so that the
food coloring can dry once the food
coloring is dry it will look like this
then you can eat invite some friends
over and have a cookie painting party B
[Music]
upti what's up what's up what's up
what's up what's
[Music]
up if you were going to climb out
Everest what would you bring my JBL a
swed and cloth so I would be warm if I
were to climb Mount Everest I would
bring food so I wouldn't starve to death
and clothes so I wouldn't be freezing
all the time I would bring clothes so
that I wouldn't freeze I would bring a
pillow and a blanket so I could sleep
and I'd bring food and I'd bring a fled
so I could fled down on rest if I wanted
to if I was climbing out this I would
bring all my dogs a flad and a big
jacket and in the big jacket would be a
portable shelter so I could survive
right if I were to climb Mount Everest
I'd bring my house what's up what's up
what's up what's up what's
up hey it's yeah girl what did a cat say
when he was asked to be a mummy I don't
know I don't think
so oh
[Music]
yeah ooh
Ashley of Ashlin City Tennessee
challenged us to see if we can lift
things by using a resalable baggie and
some straws we're going to try lifting
this table by putting a hole in the
baggie putting the straw in the hole
sealing the baggie and blowing it up
like a balloon okay guys do you guys
want to grab all of the bags in the
middle
all basically we lift up the table with
our hands and put the bag under it and
then on the count of three we'll blow
okay cool all right make sure the bag's
flat under the table guys okay soone
position so you guys all want to lift it
up at the same time
two all right flat mine dropped we want
it on the straw not just at the tip of
the straw I got mine yep that I mine's
all set just drop it mine okay all right
on the count of three we'll blow okay
one two
three guys you can put your thumb on it
if you're done blowing that's so
cool oh my that's so awesome try holding
it cuz if some of the air will go
out yeah we should hold the holes guys
got it again right this is so cool it's
so far off from the table you think it
would I can't believe plastic bags can
hold up a I know we couldn't I mean we
could lift it up a little but we
couldn't even lift it up that much and
look at the bagg this so cool how air
can just lift this thing up
down when we blew air in the reable
baggie there wasn't a lot of space for
the air to spread out and it was
compressed this means that the air was
pushed together really tightly we could
tell that the compressed air was pushing
hard cuz we had to push even harder with
our breaths to get air into the baggie
we're able to lift the table because the
compressed air pushed off the baggie and
the baggie pushed on the table causing
it to
lift it's kind of like the tires of a
bicycle when they are flat the tires
aren't able to hold up a lot of weight
that's why it's hard to ride your bike
when your tires are deflated but when
you fill them up the tires hold your
weight and it's easier to ride keep
watching because later we're going to
use different materials like balloons
and garbage bags to try to lift up the
table
[Music]
hi I'm Ryan and I'm Ryan's sister Kelsey
we're here in the Pacific Northwest to
do our favorite sport
orienteering orientering is a fun
navigational sport using a map a compass
and a course in orientering you have to
figure out where you are and where
you're going you have to be smart and
think on your feet that's why they call
it cunning running Matt to an orienter
are very important because they show the
course you run on and the terrain Open
Fields trees streams all kinds
things in orientering the course is
marked by controls like this
one when you get to the control you
punch your punch card to show that
you've been to the control then you head
off looking for the next control the
whistle is important for safety because
if you get really lost or injured then
you blow the whistle and help will come
in addition to the map you also need the
compass all you have to do is point the
compass the direction you want to go on
the map line the needle on the compass
up with the north line on the map and it
will point you in the direction that you
want to go and they need to go that
direction and there's the
control this is my favorite part of
orientering just before the race
usually be the best part cuz it gets
you're get so nervous and excited three
two at the very start I walk along while
I look at the map in the general
direction I believe that the first
control is going to
be when they say go you turn over your
mouth look at it and dash off trying to
find the first control
somewhere out there there's 10 controls
and we have to go find them in
orientering I think navigation is more
important than
speed speed is important but only when
you know where you're
going when you find one marker and you
punch it you you look at your map and
you Orient your map with your compass
and you plan a route and then I can just
go off to next
control orientering is a great sport
because you can run around and have all
kinds of Adventures in the woods it was
just about a perfect course there were
the right amount of control controls it
was the right length and right
difficulty when I finished I felt happy
and
tired orientering such a neat sport
because you get to run and S on your
feet it's cutting

running

rub earlier we were able to lift the
table using resealable baggies now we're
going to try to lift the table using
balloons and garbage bags all right can
you guys LIF the table for my balloon
sure okay oh my gosh my table okay ready
one two
three I can't pull it
off four it's turning red okay guys wait
we all
go do it get I can't do it my
like one two
I don't I don't think it's working maybe
we should try the garage bags now all
right we take our balloons out I think
the garbage bags will work will work
much better because there's a lot more
room for the air to expand in like the
balloons were so small that a lot less
room for the air to yeah the bag work
work much better and I think these will
work even so there's three people over
there maybe we should put these on the
ground so Matt let you guys go over
there and then there Meo and Rachel are
over here put yeah be careful with the
straws it come don't drop it don't drop
it don't break my fingers here pushing
okay okay ready guys no no no no no we
not there we go we
go before you
guys
perfect ready on the count three one two
three working
oh there is your side up guys yeah
there's his up
sure you guys
get here it
goes going down
oh I got a big hole coming
down oh my gosh I got a big hole it's
not I can't connected any keep try
everyone blocking with your thumb guys
look how hi block with your thumb
blocking with your thumb wow look guys
look how high it is from the table it's
like I thought it was going to fall off
guys this is so Qui to Plate you guys it
worked as well as the possib even better
but um it took a lot longer to fill up
because of all the air
the balloons didn't work balloons spread
out when you put pressure on them but
garbage bags and the sealable baggies
don't that's why they worked try this at
home you don't have to lift a table you
can lift a pile of books or a laundry
basket send any discoveries you make to
[Music]

zoom hi I'm Asia hi I'm Ashley and we're
members of the Zoom team we volunteered
by raising money for a program that
gives farm animals to poor families when
we decided to buy 30 animals the local
paper heard about us and wrote a story
that really got us started because
there's a huge response raising money is
hard work we wrote letters gave
presentations and had to keep track of
all the different donations on our
computer but we were able to raise
$5,000 which will help us buy chickens
donkeys oxin sheep pigs honey beans
goats SK even water buffalo for 20
different families you can be a member
of the Zoom team too just visit the
website at wgby dog Zoom and tell us
what you do to volunteer remember the
small things you do can add up to make a
big difference zoom into action and join
the Zoom

underwear did King topw I no idea fruit

Tomb really funny you know like of
[Music]
[Applause]
the Zoom game all you need to play this
game is a quarter a table and some
friends it's called who's got the
quarter and it was sent in by Julia R of
Gloucester
Massachusetts they're asked to be two
teams to play this game we have the
Green
Team and The Blue
[Applause]
Team both teams sit on opposite sides of
the table one team has to start with the
quarter so how about the Green Team
starts they have to pass the quarter
underneath the table to each
other the blue team has to try to guess
which member of the green team has the
quarter when they think they know they
say hands up and everyone on the green
team has to bring their hands up from
under the table and go like
this when The Blue Team says hands down
1 two three everyone on the green team
goes like
this it's better for the green team to
go like this at the same time because
it's harder for The Blue Team to guess
now it's time for The Blue Team to guess
which member of the Green Team has the
quarter if the blue team guesses right
they get to keep the quarter and do what
the green team did if they guess wrong
then the Green Team keeps going so let's
flip the coin to see which team goes
first
I so flip it we
