Animal Friends
Thank you very much Mr Forbes for
agreeing to an interview Oh it's my
pleasure Brooke So what is your angle
going to be with this interview i
thought we should do a story on each
member of the management team So when
did you first join the station oh I
first joined the station 15 years ago I
came straight out of college What was
your first job working in the tape vault
keeping track of all the tapes for all
the shows Was that fun no it was boring
but I was happy to be working in
television so I enjoyed it What's
happening Billy everyone's starting
their jobs on the newspaper What are you
guys going to do i want to work on the
design and layout of it I have some
ideas on how it should look I love art
Can I help you sure thing k*ll the host
If there's one thing we love on this
show it's our animal friends This next
video stars the fluffy white rooster
beautiful Himalayan cats and a lovely
old gray mare So let's visit them down
at the animal I went to the animal The
birds and the beasts were there The big
by the line in the room was combing a
hair You ought to have seen the monk He
jumped on the elephant trunk The
elephant seized and fell on his knees
And what became of the monk and what
became of the
monk our kids song's animal family is
very special to us They're very friendly
and so so sweet So let's be careful in
how we handle them Can I pick them up
sure you can
[Music]
Scooping up the field and popping them
on the head Down came the fairy and she
said "Little bunny boo I don't like your
attitude Scooping up the field and
popping them on the head I'll give you
three chances and if you don't behave
I'll turn you into a goon."
That cat looks like the one in my
bedtime story book
cat cat where have you been
i've been up to London to look at the
king cat cat what did
you chair
i'm going to teach you a nursery rhyme
about a black sheep We already know it
[Music]
Ba black sheep have you any w yes sir
yes sir three bags full One for my
master and one for my dame and one for
the little boy that lives down the lane
This horse is named Apache and she's
lived at Camp Kid Songs for 14 years
She's getting a little old and gets
tired a bit easily but she's still the
best horse a kid could ever
have The old
mar she ain't what she used to be Many
long years ago
many long years ago
Look at that fluffy rooster That's a
Chinese silky rooster and his name is
Gus I had a little rooster by the old
gate And that little rooster was my clay
mate And that little rooster
said
[Music]
de I went to the animal fair The birds
and the beasts were there The big and
the light of the moon was going in a
hair You ought to have seen the monk He
jumped on the elephant's trunk The
elephant seized and fell on his knees
And what became of the monk and what
became of the month So I'll take
Trucks Song
pictures of all the new things that have
been added to the studio lately like the
new bigle sign and I'll take notes and
write the story Let's start over at the
new lunchroom It's very popular
You're introducing I like trucks next
Got it This next song's trucks Not only
do kids love them but we all really need
them Trucks move just about everything
around from delivering milk to your door
and food to your market Trucks even
bring cars to the dealership and gas to
the gas station So as the song says I
like trucks
Big or small I like them still I like
trucks I always will I
like shiny red with a ladder So long a
milk truck comes before I wait for milk
to make me strong A garbage truck a
pickup truck They're also big and tough
Oh and when I see them I can't seem to
get enough Cuz I like trucks I always
will Big or small I like them still I
like trucks I always will I
like moving truck carries things you
want to move around
and go between every city and town I
guess I just appreciate all the things
that they can do And when I can drive
one it'll make my dreams come
true I like tricks I always will Big or
small I like them still I like I always
will I like
trucks I like
trucks I
like them Looks like we're all set for
Question Time
question time We are indeed Good Roll
the graphic in three two one and take
it And cue Aaron All of us here at Kids
Songs are very interested in what it
takes to make a newspaper So we invited
Pat Morrison of the Los Angeles Times to
explain it all to us today on Question
Time with Lindsay Bartles Welcome Pat
Thank you Aaron And thank you Pat
Morrison for joining us today Why do we
have newspapers we have newspapers
because we can't be everywhere we need
to be to know the things we know You
need to know about pollution about
what's going on in Washington about
what's going on in Russia And you can't
be in all those places but reporters can
We have reporters in China and Japan and
Africa All of them to bring news to you
about what's going on in the rest of the
world Wow So what do reporters do and
how do they do it reporters get up very
early in the morning and they talk to
their editors and they figure out what
is the thing I have to write about today
What should people know should they know
about government should they know about
the space shuttle should they know about
sports sometimes and we do like sports a
lot So who else works at a newspaper
well there are editors of course and
photographers to get the pictures you
see in the newspaper There are people
who write the headlines that you see
there on page one and in the newspaper
There are people who sell the
advertising that you look at There are
people who buy the comic strips There
are people who put together the
horoscopes to read to see what's going
to happen to you today There's a lot of
people who put together the newspaper
physically And the last person to touch
it is the person who delivers it to your
doorstep Cool So finally what advice do
you have for kids that want to work on a
newspaper well first of all you have to
be curious Are you curious i'm very good
That's a very good start You have to
want to know about other people in other
places people who speak different
languages and live in different ways
from you And you have to read the
newspaper every day in order to find out
about all those people too It's a pretty
good bargain isn't it yeah So thank you
so much for joining us today We learned
so much Thank you Lindsay The bigles are
Sing Along

out what I want to do for the newspaper
