how long can she do it to us just just

until you guys laugh what you

want

[Applause]

[Music]

okayy 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 if you could choose any animal

in the world as a pet what would you

choose dog because they are fun to play

with and they watch over you I would

choose a monkey because it reminds me of

my brothers if I could have any pet in

the whole world I would have a kitten

because they're cuddly and fun to play

with I would have a T-Rex so I can ride

it to school it would probably be a

horse because they're so much fun

they're very pretty my favorite pet

would be be a hammerhead shark

because I like

sharks hey oh hi Mike why did the moth

eat the lightning bug look sad why he

wanted a light snack a light

[Music]

snack zoomo

[Music]

you could roll bubbles one at a time

like Caroline is doing or you could make

this automatic dipping bubble machine

Alexander P of sers New York emailed us

the idea for this

invention this bubble blowing machine

makes the work of Dipping bubbles a lot

easier it works it's

cool here's how you can make them first

you're going to have to make the bubble

bling part so take a straw and wrap some

clay around the middle okay and I'm

going to try and make it into like a lot

going kind of roll it yeah cuz I think

if we stick it in like a bob him we

might get some clay in this STW that's

true good job okay that looks good and

we'll wrap it

around try not to bend there we

go perfect actually I don't think we

even need all that play we might just be

able to take off the trunk that way it's

lighter there we go squeeze arm there we

okay looks good then you'll need some

store our bubble blowing ones they come

with a ring on both ends so using

scissors snip off one of the Rings that

way you can stick it into the clay okay

so we'll cut this

off like this like

about then stick the bubble blowing wand

into the clay like this one here's the

other one

okay cool this too okay cool next cut a

big window on one of the sides of the

quart size milk cotton then you want to

cut two splits one on this side and one

on that that way the straw can rest in

it like this well we'll use

that oh look the are backward there we

go if we blew on it it wouldn't not blow

bubbles yeah okay then put a close p on

one end of the

straw don't put it like in the

circle that way put it to where it

pinches it like this cool and if you

want both ends to be weighed down then

you can put on a second one that are

their balance

okay it's kind of slippery want to get a

Different Cloth in sure I think it's a

little

soapy

okay there we go okay so fill it up with

bubble

solution okay you want to fill it up

just so the second one can reach it so a

little

more and there we go now you just want

to turn the clothes pin and blow if it

doesn't work you may have to adjust the

one by making it shorter or longer oh

wait a minute our close ptin is not on

the right B oh yeah we need to make it

even that way the up yeah there we go

right cool let's T it out

okay hope you hold

it oh

pretty

yay oh nice can I

try

okay

yay there we go there go

beautiful that's a lot that's

fun so this bubble blowing machine saves

us the work of Dipping the wand each

time you want to blow bubbles but what

it doesn't do is turn the clothes pin or

blow the bubbles we still have to do

that work see if you can make any

changes to this invention to make it

even easier to blow bubbles you could

use a different source of wind or you

could use a different material for the

bubble blowing ones Engineers are always

trying to find new ways to make work

easier for example like building

machines like this donut making

[Music]

machine this is called a proof BX while

the donuts ride up and down the machine

gives the donuts heat and humidity so

that they can

ride next the machine drops the donuts

into vegetable shortening so they can

cook after the donuts are nice and brown

on one side the machine flips them so

that they can get brown on the other

side then the machine puts the glaze on

the

donut and before the donuts have a

chance to cool humans not a machine put

the donuts in a box

yummy why don't you look at

me most of us just crack ourselves

up okay I need to move on

fine doesn't hurt your nose

o

Sor not funny you're not very good

at something I can't do

it come on come join us on the green

comfy

you're too

good yeah

time a

lady I'm a

[Laughter]

little then or something

you laugh

[Music]

no future cities is a nationwide contest

where kids like me get to create a cool

city of the future from our own

imagination we designed it on a computer

and then we built an entire model I'm

Emily and some of my best friends and I

are building a futuristic city called

matmo so we want to have some space

around we're working together just like

a team of

Engineers welcome to matuma one month

ago we entered the regional finals in

Philadelphia and we

won now we're off to Washington DC for

the national finals

we're here in Washington

DC we're going on a little walking

Touro you know we talk about we planned

Matumbo we did the grids and stuff

Washington was planned also was planned

by a guy named lefant he built all the

Avenues so wide that it still works

today you know we talked in future

cities about planning for the future

they probably had no idea there would be

cars but it makes Washington pretty easy

to get around in so great being here and

now we have to get like go stu oh

t-shirt and now it comes down to you

just 27 teams you have made it here hey

you're in the big game have fun you love

your city you love each

other you know everybody got to school

is thinking about

you

okay welcome to much

a futuristic city located on the coast

of the semi country

Namibia before Mato Nami had to import

most of its energy from South Africa

today Matumbo makes its own energy from

renewable energy sources because the

power produced by our renewable energy

sources varies according to the time of

day our Engineers devised a power grid

facility as I'm giving the presentation

I feel a little more nervous because

this is the finals but I was also a

little more confident with the speech

because I gave it so many

times it was very nerve-wracking but I

think we did a good job now it's all to

the Jud even if we don't get into the

finals who still came we had fun and the

five finalist teams are

Michigan

Milwaukee listening to the top schools

being announced and then not being one

of them was really hard

Minnesota your team wasn't called

remember you are still winners you've

done a great

job I'm happy that we made it here and

that we got this SP so that it's okay

that we didn't get into the final so we

did a good job on our

[Music]

congradulations thank

you I learned that hard work can earn me

anything and I made a lot of new

friends and I basically just had a lot

of

fun the panel of Judges who are

Engineers can ask you any question they

want most likely they'll ask you what do

you want to be when you grew up do you

want to be an

engineer and the answer is

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

yes now listen to me thew MC from the U

to the B to the V and you'll see tree

becomes three

becomes she

becomes and he

becomes just up to the vowel we'll show

you how C

becomes now becomes n sh becomes sh and

plow

becomes now you know how just people say

wub to the

Bell other people on the love woo other

people on the L woo

all the people buing
