ideas you keep sending us we wouldn't

have a show without you Maggie W of

Sugarland Texas sent us this next game

called called daddy penguin here's how

you play the first players on each team

put a ball between their

feet then they have to Waddle to the end

of the course and back kind of like a

penguin so kind of like that it's kind

of hot if the ball drops in their feet

nits pick it up put it back between

their feet and keep on going want to

know why Maggie calls it Daddy penguin

we found out that some species of male

Penguins take care of their penguin eggs

they B them on their feet between their

feathers to keep them

warm okay so that your ball and

that's okay Penguins on your marks get

set

my

M welcome to Cafe Zoom today I'm going

to share with you a special recipe

that's been handed down from my

great-grandmother to my mother this

recipe originates in Finland where my

great-grandmother was born it's called

buaka that's finished for pancakes in

Finland it's traditional to serve this

treat when you have company for a

special event or just sometimes for

breakfast here's what you'll need to

make it one teaspoon

salt 3 tbsp

sugar 3 cups milk one stick of unsalted

butter three

eggs 3/4 cup flour it's better if you

sift the flour which means make it free

of clumps I already have some that's

sifted all right here's what you do beat

your three eggs in a bowl I already have

some that's beaten then mix in your

salt here we go your

sugar and your

milk it's really

cool so now I'm going

to go it's really cool the colors it has

like white with yellow stripes oh I can

feel where the sugar is little by little

add the

flour stir

it it's really it's getting harder to

[Music]

stir still pretty comfy there's a lot of

big pieces of

flow it's weird bonaka is spelled with a

p but it sounds like it's a b so it's

kind of crazy now you need to melt the

butter I already melted the butter in

the microwave I'm going to use these

mitts cuz the Butter's going to be

hot here we

go

there we go close

go I stirred the butter every 30 seconds

until it was melted I also put a piece

of waxed paper over the top of the dish

so that the butter didn't splatter when

it was in the microwave I got to put the

the MS back on

sometime okay take this off now add your

melted butter into the

mixture

oh it smells really good smells like

popcorn but the Butter's getting on my

NS here we

go I'm going to mix

it oh now it really looks cool the

butter made it a lot more colorful

that's good poured into a greased 9 by

13in pan I already have one that's

greased with

[Music]

butter we go all the butter and all

the baked for about 20 minutes in an

oven that has been preheated to

450° open this

[Music]

down it's wavy it's hard to car got to

be

careful there we

go this is what makes this pancake

different from the ones you might be

it's baked in an oven not fried in a pan

once your pancake is cooked and curled

you can serve it with different toppings

like maple syrup jelly honey or powdered

sugar cut it into squares to serve I

already have one that's

made

M that's finished for tastes

good get some powdered

sugar it's really good

here's a

simple

[Music]

you hello what would you like Miss do

you have Frog's legs why yes then hop

over there and fix me a

[Music]

[Music]

burger do you think we could pour the

water from this cup into this cup we

could if you could just go like

this but what if the cup always have to

be 2 ft apart Alicia C A Sheffield

Alabama sent us this challenge the only

material we can use besides our cells

and the cups is

string whichever team either Courtney

and me or Shing ying and estuardo is the

first to get the water from this

cup to the line of this cup is the

winner ready guys yeah all right all

right so all right how could we do this

we could use like we have to pour the

water somehow without physically

moving but if we somehow

like cut a hole at the top and we

knotted this and we knoted it to that

and we LIF to this exactly same about

just all right let's try adhesion is the

ability of molecules to stick together

yeah so so how can we get the water to

stick

today well since M want to stick

together maybe we should soak it and

then try what we were thinking of

before so if we tie this

here oh we still have to make sure that

the string is 2 ft long will that

stick no it's it's not doesn't look like

it's sliding either I would think it

would just drain right into

it

oh little a little higher drops go go

little

drops

[Music]

that did work I don't think that's going

to work I think you needed higher so

that it'll slide down faster oh these

aren't making it into the cup oh is your

hand in the way I think so um just let

it um oh how can we do it without

getting your hand in the way

though perfect if it was all the way St

see how it stops here because then it

started going level if if we put this

cup down all the way down to this whole

thing in the street and we did the exact

same thing it probably works so

see no tilt the cup so it's like that

yeah all right oh we've got some

coming oh I feel it I can feel it keep

on pulling that's a good speed yay it's

working oh my gosh it's working this is

so good no it's not

don't go any

faster look at it look at it is it

coming yeah it doesn't when you go

really slow like that you can see the

water you can see the water like

speeding down it's like repelling up

it's not even like on it's just going

right past it's like using it as a water

slide yeah I

know that's really

cool just keep just keep let do it

flow

want to try to fill the whole cup

actually might not be a bad

idea that's really cool we're almost

there you done yeah I think we're done

oh wow I think we got it we definitely

have more oh my goodness do you guys

want to come up and see ours oh sure

okay here's what we did we cut a hole on

both sides and then we put the string

through both and then put knots on both

sides and then we like k*lled the drop

on a diagonal and then we slowly kind of

really slowly poured it cup and so we

thought of like adhesion you know how it

can seure different molecules and so

this way as he adhesive to the water so

when you tied the knots was the string

um dry or was it wet well it was dry at

first but it didn't work as well so we

wet it so we kind of stuck it in the

thing of water work oh here's the scoop

on why this works water molecules have a

strong attraction to other water

molecules this means that they stick

together really well this is called

cohesion water can also stick to other

materials like string this is called

adhesion that is why when we pour the

water down the string except to the

water molecules on the string and the

string you can see this in action next

time you're taking a shower stick out

your arm and all the water that falls on

your hand will go under your hand and

drip down your arm this is because the

water is sticking to your arm and to the

other water here's another cool thing

you can do with water and string using

two strings instead of one you can make

a water Bridge okay this is a little

like

going oh that is so cool wow it's like a

waterfall almost it's going definitely

it's going straight down it's like wow

it goes real fast too yeah it definitely

goes faster you can you can also sort of

see like little Stripes that's neat yeah

keep watching because later in the show

we're going to have a water string

Zoom reviews

books Olivia K of Seattle Washington

sent us a review of the book called my

father's dragon by Ruth Styles ganet

here's what Olivia wrote the book starts

when a boy named Elmer meets an alley

cat the cat tells him about a baby

dragon who needs help Elmer decides to

travel to the island where the dragon is

trapped and helps him Escape Elmer takes

a backpack full of stuff like chewing

Comm and hair ribbons to help him on his

journey he uses these things to trick

the animals who won't let the dragon go

there are two other books in this series

and I really like them all they are

called Elmer and the dragon and the

dragons of blueland you will really

enjoy reading these books you know you

could have a lot of fun reading to a

younger brother or sister I share

stories with my younger brother all the

time give it a

[Music]

try

[Music]

action I'm Kelsey I'm Angela and we're

members of the Zoom

team we volunteered by raising money for

a homeless shelter and an animal shelter

we did this by holding a swimon at our

school and asking people to pledge money

for every lap that we swam at first we

thought it would just be the two of us

but then the whole Orca swim team got

involved and together we were able to

raise

$1,400 do you volunteer in your

community if you do you're already a

member of the Zoom team we want to hear

all about it send your story along with

any photos or videos to this address

remember the little things you do can

sometimes make a big difference zoom

into action and join the Doom

team

[Music]

now that we know how to use string to

transfer water we're going to have a

race to see who can get their water from

this side of the

room all the way to this side the first

chance to get their hand back is the

winner each team gets to choose the type

of string they want to help us make our

decision we get to experiment with

different types of string for a while

want to try the big one yeah defin might

be hard to

soak is it

who wow it's like very it's not

all this one

looks fishing L okay no way that one's

pretty good let's put on the maybe list

maybe list how's that working it's

working good

too

uh that was a lot though oh actually

that one was really

well yeah this one this one really works

this is going to be our pick hey string

in the water are you guys ready to race

y totally right okay let's do it

basically we chose our string because we

tried it out and it absorbed a lot of

water out of our cup and also it's not

Twisted it's not braided it's just it's

very smooth basically so the water can

just STM down the reason we chose ours

is well in our opinion it ran the

fastest and it had a lot of water

running through it and I think the

spirals and the braided helped us just

and it went real down so it was like the

opposite for us okay guys let's

start ring it

out can find okay guys Courtney let's go

to end s you got it okay you guys ready

now I was

ready who's going to say when I will I

guess keep keep your P down until she

hold the handle pull it make it

straight okay guys get your water ready

okay all right ready set

go oh

wow work I'm not feeling anything I need

to wait till you actually get go

down Mike are you it's not going it's

not going

this I don't feel anything oh it's

stopping I think it's

stopping

I don't think it's wet enough or

[Music]

something oh

whoops Mike

Mike got the jum I think no he didn't

come on

Mike no don't K it it was going oh I

found it I found it I found it wo got it

I got it good

job down there yeah it's definitely you

can see it woo awesome I sh was really

wet the white Rob worked a lot better

for a few reasons one of the reasons is

it's more tightly twined and this makes

it smoother and that makes it easier for

water to pass down the Rope as for

shinging in a spartos twine it was

twined and tied a lot looser which made

fibers hang off because of these fibers

the water had a difficult time traveling

down this rope what else could you do

using string to transport water could

you water the plants on your patio while

you're inside your house how about

catching the rain and sending it

somewhere useful like your dog's water

dish let us know what you come up with

by sending your ideas to

zoom me what to do you
