Daniel Tiger: Hi, Neighbor!

Can you guess where I am today?

I'll give you a clue...

I'm wearing my bathing suit...

But I'm not at the beach...

I'm at the Neighborhood....

Pooooool!

Come on!

♪ [playful music]

Whoa. Look at the pool!



Do you like to play in the water?

I do!

And mom! Look over there!

There are sprinklers - and grr-ific slides!!

Mom Tiger: Who's ready to have fun in the sun?

Mom/Daniel: [giggle]

Prince Wednesday: [giggle]

Daniel: Ready to play, Prince Wednesday?

Prince W: Mhmm... almost ready, Daniel!

Queen Sara Saturday: I just want to put a little more

sunscreen on this nose.

Prince Tuesday: Welcome to our neighborhood pool, everyone!

Daniel: Hi, Prince Tuesday!

Prince T: Hi, Little D!

Daniel: Are you gonna play in the water with us?

Prince T: I can't play with you today because I'm the lifeguard.

Daniel: Lifeguard?

Prince T: Yup! Lifeguards watch our neighbors

at the pool to make sure everyone

is safe and follows the rules.



♪ Follow the rules to stay safe at the pool! ♪

Daniel: Do you know any rules for the pool?

Prince W: Ooh! I know a rule!

Listen to the lifeguard.

My brother told me that one this morning.

Prince T: Right, little bro.

Listen to the lifeguard - that's me!

That's a rule at our pool.

Daniel: Ooh! I know the next rule.

No running.

Prince T: That's right!

No running at the neighborhood pool.

The ground here is wet, so it can be slippery.

If you run, you might fall and hurt yourself.

The next rule is, you always have to ask a grown up

if it's okay to go in the pool.

Daniel: Okay!

Prince T: Do either of you have any questions?

Prince W: Yes!

Um...

What if I forget the rules?

Prince T: That's why it's important

to listen to the lifeguard!

If I see that you're forgetting a rule,

I'll blow my whistle and remind you.

That's how I keep you safe.

[whistle sound]

Daniel/Prince W: Whoa!

Prince T: When you hear that whistle,

and see my arm go up like this;

that means to stop what you're doing and listen to me.

Daniel: Ok, Prince Tuesday.

Prince T: Do you have any other questions?

Prince W: Oh, oh oh!

Prince T: [chuckles] Yes, Wednesday?

Prince W: Can I have a whistle too?

Daniel: [gasps] Me too?

Prince T: [laughs] No.

Only the lifeguard should have a whistle at the pool.

That way, if you hear it,

you know you'll need to stop and listen.

Mom Tiger: Thank you for explaining the rules,

Prince Tuesday.

Prince T: You're welcome.

A lifeguard is here to keep you safe!



And now...

the pool is open!

Daniel: Yay! Prince W: Hooray!

Queen Sara: That means it's time to play!

Prince W: Ooh! Can we try the sprinklers first?

Daniel: Pleeeeeease?

Mom Tiger: [chuckles] Sure!

Just make sure you walk there carefully.

Daniel: Ok. Come on!

Mom Tiger: Ok, we'll be watching you right over here.

Daniel: It's raining! [giggle]

Prince W: Drip! Drippy-dippy-drip-drop-drip!

[giggles]

Daniel: Splishy-splashy!

Prince W: Drip-drop-drip! [giggles]

Prince W: Look, Daniel. Let's sliiiiiide!

Daniel: Okay!



Hippoooooo!

Prince W: Elephaaaaaant!

Daniel/Wednesday: [giggle]

Switch! [giggle]

Daniel: Woah! Oof!

[lifeguard whistle]

Prince T: Hey, Little D.

Are you okay?

Daniel: Uh-huh.

I was running...

and I fell.

Mom, I slipped.

Mom Tiger: I saw that.

That's why there are rules at the pool like 'no running',

to keep you safe.

Prince T: And that's why I'm here - to remind you.

♪ Follow the rules to stay safe at the pool! ♪

Daniel: ♪ Follow the rules to stay safe at the pool. ♪

Prince T: So, do you think you can both remember the

"No Running" rule?

Daniel: Yeah, I think I can.

Prince T: Then I think you're ready to keep playing.

Mom Tiger: Hmm. I do too.

Daniel: Tigertastic!

Come on!

Prince T: Have fun!

Prince W: Come on, Daniel! Let's slide!

Daniel/Prince W : [giggle]

Daniel: Hippoooooooo!

Daniel/Prince W: [giggle]

Prince W: Look, Daniel! I'm an elephant!

[elephant sound]

Riding down a...elephant!

Daniel/Prince W : [giggle]

Prince W : [elephant sound]

[giggles]

Daniel: I'm an elephant too!

[elephant sound]

We're jungle friends! [giggle]

Prince W: [elephant sound]

Daniel: [elephant sound]

[giggle]

Hey... do you want to make-believe with me?

Let's make believe

that we're splashing around in a real jungle!

♪ So many animal friends I see, ♪

♪ And they all want to play with me! ♪

♪ Let's splash and laugh and move our feet, ♪

♪ At the watering hole, where we meet! ♪

Daniel: [giggles]

[giggles]

Water ball!

[gasps] The beach ball!

Oh no!

Prince W: I got it!

[lifeguard whistle]

Prince T: Stop!

Before you go into the pool, you need to ask a grown up.

Queen Sara: ♪ Follow the rules,

Prince W: Oh, I forgot.

What about the ball?

Daniel: It's in the water!

Queen Sara: If something falls in the water,

ask a grown up,

and we can get it together.

Prince W: Ok, Mom!

Can we go in the water together?

Queen Sara: Thank you for asking.

We sure can!

Prince W: Ugh, we're getting closer, Mom!

Got it!

Hey, Daniel!

The water feels royally nice!

Daniel: Mom? Can we go in the pool too?

Mom Tiger: Yup! Let's go.

It's good that you asked first, Daniel.

Okay!

Daniel: The water is a little chilly!

Prince W: [giggles] Queen Sara: Toot tooooot!
