- All right, my paper plane
nearly hit the fence, sally.
- I can b*at that, nick.
- Whoa, good throw.
My next one's going right
into your back yard.
Oh, no.
We've run out of paper.
- Did you say paper?
- It's the cat.
- The cat in the hat.
- I have a newspaper,
a paper cup, a paper hat,
And a paper chair.
- Oh, cat.
We just need regular paper.
- For making paper planes.
- Plane paper,
why didn't you say so?
Hm, I don't have a single sheet.
But I know who can help.
- Who?
- Dr. Twiggles, the tree doctor,
in the woody-wood-woods.
He knows all about making paper.
- What does a tree doctor
know about making paper?
- Well, he makes paper
from trees, of course.
Let's go and see how.
Your mother will not mind at all
if you do.
- Mom, can we go visit dr.
Twiggles in the woody-wood-woods
To find out how to make paper?
- Dr. Twiggles
in the woody-wood-woods?
Sure, I hope there's
not a paper-wait to see him.
- Thanks, mom.
- We can go!
We can go!
- I know! I know.
To the thinga-ma-jigger.
- Can you ask dr. Twiggles
for some waterproof paper?
- Why do you want that, fish?
- I'm a busy fish, and I don't
like soggy to-do lists.
- There's only one thing
That you actually
need to do now: buckle up.
Flick the jigger-ma-whizzer!
Isn't this fun?
Woo-hoo!

- Welcome
to the woody-wood-woods.
- Wow, there are so many trees
down there.
- Why, of course.
That's the way
dr. Twiggles likes it.
- Hm, I can't see dr. Twiggles
anywhere.
- Ah, but can you hear him?
- ♪ Trees, trees,
glorious trees ♪
♪ From roots below
to crowning leaves ♪
- That's him!
- ♪ This tree's a pine
so prickly and fine ♪
♪ With cones so coney
and needles divine ♪
- Dr. Twiggles, you remember
my good friends nick and sally?
- Hi!
- I sure do.
What can I do for you?
- We have a question for you.
Is paper really made from trees?
- Yes, most paper is.
- Can you show us how it's made?
- Oh, I'd be delighted.
First of all, we need a tree.
Luckily,
one fell down this morning.
Ah, here we are.
- Oh, my.
Oh, me.
I see a tree.
- How do we make
that into paper?
- Let's take it to my paper
plant and you'll see.
Run this way.
Wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh.
- Wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh.
- Welcome to my paper plant.
Stand back, now.
That chomper looks hungry.
- I have a sandwich.
- No, my chomper only eats wood.
[Chopper chomping]
[Chopper belches]
Oh, I do beg your pardon.
It chomped too fast.
- Cool, the chomper turned
the tree into little bits.
- It doesn't look
much like paper yet.
- It will soon.
Hm, but we're going to need
more wood than this.
We'll have to find another tree.
- Hm.
- It's a shame to cut down
a beautiful tree to make paper.
- Could we use something else?
- I still have part
of a sandwich.
- You can't make paper
from a sandwich.
- But you can make paper
from paper.
Waste paper, like this.
We'll make some of our brand
new paper from wood,
And some of it from old paper,
like this.
But we'll need
more than one piece.
- Want some waste paper?
Here's what to do.
Call for some help
from thing one and thing two.
- Hello, ta-da!
- Uh-oh.
[Both giggle]
- Huh?
- Excuse me.
- Sorry.
- Huh? Uh-oh.
- We'll help you.
- I found a newspaper.
- I found a candy wrapper.
- I found a paper chain.
- Then let's recycle our paper.
- Did you say cycle our paper?
- No, recycle.
Recycle means use it again.
- Same as my cycle.
I've used it before,
and I'll use it again.
- We picked up all the paper.
- Hello!
- Bye-bye!
- There you go.
- Thanks, guys.
Nice work.
- Excellent.
Now, for the exciting part.
[Chopper chomping]
Mm-hmm, excellent.
Now, run this way.
Wee-ooh, wee-ooh.
- Wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh,
wee-ooh.
- This is my digester.
- And this is my digester.
It's digesting my part
of a sandwich right now.
- The digester will mush
together all of the wood
And the paper that we found.
Pull that lever please, nick.
- Okay.
- Now we add water.
Sally, turn that handle,
if you'd be so kind.
- Sure.
- And then we add some special
cleaning stuff too.
- It's like our washing machine
at home.
- That's right.
And like a cooker too.
- Hey, it's getting hot.
- Clean, white bed sheets
come out of our washing machine.
Does this machine
make clean sheets of paper?
- Let's take a look.
It takes a long time to finish,
But here's some I made
earlier coming out right now.
- Mm, oatmeal porridge,
so tasty.
- Wait!
That's not porridge.
- Are you sure?
It looks like porridge.
Let's take a closer look
with my micro-ma-bootle.
- I see lots of tiny bits.
- That's right, gazillions of
little pieces of wood in water.
It's called pulp.
- Don't eat that stuff,
or take a gulp.
It's not porridge or soup.
No, that's called?
- Pulp.
- Yes, and that's
what we need to make paper.
- Whoa, I see pulp.
- It's falling onto that net.
- I call it a screen.
Do you see what's happening?
- Oh, the water's going
through the screen.
- Yeah, only the little bits
of water left.
- It's like when your mom
pours peas through a sieve.
M-mm-mm.
- It looks more like a doormat
now
That the water's drained away.
- But it's still all gooey.
- Wow.
- Cool.
- Let's go in to see
how to make it less gooey.
- Wee-ooh, wee-ooh.
- Wee-ooh, wee-ooh, wee-ooh.
- What happens in here?
Ah, my hat.
- There it is.
- If we hurry,
we might catch it.
- Oh, ah, my poor hat.
- Over here.
Wow, it's hot.
- And flat.
Ah, toasted sandwich, anyone?
- Is that what happens
to the paper too?
- Yes, the rollers
dry it and make it flat.
- Ah, just like my hat.
- Wow, it really is paper.
- That's the biggest piece
of paper I've ever seen.
- Paper is always made
in big sheets like this.
But I'll cut you some
to take home with you
That's just right
for paper planes.
Both: wow.
Thanks, dr. Twiggles.
- See?
It's easy to make paper.
It's just little bits of wood.
- Or old paper.
- And that's even better.
Because that way we don't have
to cut down any trees.
- Let's go
and make some paper planes.
Both: bye, dr. Twiggles!
- Come back, soon.
Bye!
- First make some pulp
from small bits of wood.
Strain, dry, and flatten it.
My, it looks good.
The paper you use starts out
as a tree.
It takes time to make.
So use it carefully.
- Over the fence,
woo-hoo!
- Yay, we both win.
- The paper form dr. Twiggles
makes great paper planes.
- That's not the paper
from dr. Twiggles.
We used old paper planes.
- We're recycling.
- We kept dr. Twiggles paper to
make something special, for you.
- Oh, my.
It's me.
The cat with the very flat hat.
- To remind you to never, ever
drop it in a paper roller again.
[Laughter]
- Today, I have a very hard
question for you.
Which of these three animals
have four noses?
Is it a porcupine?
Or is it an owl?
Or is it a slug?
Did you say that the slug
has four noses?
That's right; their noses
are called tentacles.
And slugs use them to smell
and see.
Did you get it this time?
Well, next time
I'll stump you for sure.
- Time to take a picture
with our snap-o-rama cameras!
- I'll take the picture.
- And I'll guess what it is.
It looks like a bunch
of needles.
Oh, it's some kind of animal.
Hm, a porcupine.
- You're right.
- Why is he covered in needles?
- Those are called quills.
They use them for protection.
- Next time,
I'll take the picture.
- [Giggles]
- Hm, he must be here somewhere,
sally.
- The snow has covered
everything.
So, we can't find him, nick.
- Maybe he's over there
behind the tree.
- Let's take a look.
[Both shouting]
- It sure is slippy.
- And slidey.
- And snowbally.
- It's the cat.
- The cat in the hat.
- Have you guys lost something?
- We're looking for teddy bear.
- We were outside playing
with him,
But then it snowed.
- And now we can't find him.
- Why, a bear in the snow
is not all bad, you know?
- Isn't it too cold for bears?
- Not at all.
Some bears love being out
in the cold.
- They do?
- Sure.
Why not come and see my friend
polly the polar bear
In freeze-your-knees snowland.
She has fun out in the snow.
- Can we go? Please?
- Of course you can.
Your mother will not mind at all
if you do.
- Mom, can we visit polly the
polar bear in freeze-your-knees
Snowland and see how bears
have fun out in the snow?
- Polly the polar bear
in freeze-your-knees, snowland?
Okay, I'll make you some hot
chocolate for when you get back.
- Thanks, mom.
Both: we can go!
We can go!
- I know! I know!
To the thinga-ma-jigger.
- I hope we're off to the beach.
I'm freezing.
- Next stop,
freeze-your-knees snowland!
- Are you kidding?
It's even colder there.
If we're going to
freeze-your-knees snowland,
I'm bringing my earmuffs.
- Good idea.
We don't want it to be called
freeze-your-fins snowland,
Do we?
[Laughter]
- Are you ready?
Both: yes, we are!
- Are you steady?
Both: yes, we are!
- ♪ Are you sure you're ready

Both: yes, we are!

- Wow, everything is so white.
- And so is polly.
- Then how will we see her
in the snow?
- Don't worry.
Polly will find us.
- I told you
we should go to the beach.
- It sure is cold here.
- Why are you jiggling
and wiggling like that, fish?
- Haven't you heard?
If you move around,
it helps keep you warm.
- Great idea, fish.
Let's do it.
- ♪ Jump, jump, jump,

♪ Jump, jump, jump,

- Cat, whatcha jumping
up and down like that for?
- Hiya, polly.
- Hello.

- I must admit
I am a little pooped.
- I feel warmer already.
- Me too.
- Good to see you.
I'd like
you to meet my new cubs.
- Cubs?
- Cubs are baby bears.
- Petra, patra,
it's safe to come out now.
- Hi, guys.
- Aw, aren't you cute?
- Which one's petra
and which one's patra?
- I'm petra.
- I'm patra.
- You know, sometimes I
find it hard to tell myself.
- Brr, I'm freezing.
- That's why it's called
freeze-your-knees snowland.
- If we had fur like you, polly,
we would be really warm.
- Can we feel it?
- Don't mind if you do.
Go ahead.
- Wow, it's so soft.
- And so thick.
- And I'm so clever.
'Cause I found these in my hat.
- Fur coats, just like polly's.
- Kind of,
this is just pretend fur.
- Yay!
- Mm, I'm as warm as toast now.
- Mm, me too.
What about you, cat?
- Don't worry about me.
I already have fur.
[Both giggling]
- What are you trying
to tell us?
- If they wag their heads, then
they want you to play with them.
- Yes, come and play.
- Yeah.
[Giggling]
Come on!
- Looks like they want to race
you to the top.
I love races.
- Cool.
- Let's go.
- Oh, I can't get a grip.
- I'm slipping.
And sliding.
Like I did in the back yard.
- I'm right behind you!
[Both gasp]
- Cat?
- Hello, anyone out there?
- Where? Where?
Hey, wait for me.
- Whoa.
- Are you having trouble,
back here?
- We keep slipping and sliding.
- We can't climb as well as you.
- Look, polly's footprints
are so much bigger than ours.
- Maybe the secret of great
climbing is in her big feet.
- I never thought about it
before.
- Can we see your paw?
- Sure thing.
- Wow, look at those long claws.
- And those dark pads, here.
Hm, it feels rough.
- Ah, that must be it.
Claws for gripping,
and pads for not slipping.
- I bet we could be
great snow climbers, too,
With feet like that.
- These ice-a-magrippers
should do the trick.
- Hey, these are just
like polar bear feet.
- Thanks, cat.
- Race you to the top.
- Okay.
- Let's go.
- Yeah!
- Yay, these feet
are great for climbing.
- The claws really grip the ice.
I'm going to win.
- No, I am.
- Okay, it was a tie.
- What's happening?
- Oh, dear.
There's a snowstorm coming.
- Not the best weather for hats.
- Kids,
we need to take shelter now.
- This way, cubs.
- Okay.
- Come on, cat.
- We need to go.
- Wait, we can't forget fish.
- We left him
way back down the hill
- If fish needs a lift,
here's what to do.
Give a quick whistle
for thing one and thing two.
- Hello!
- What's going on?
- A-okay.
- When you two say it's okay,
it usually means it isn't.
Hey!
Hang on things, whoa, careful.
Whoa, my. Oh.
- Ready, hm.
- Fire!
- Wait!
- Bye-bye!
- Woo-hoo!
- Safe landing, old buddy.
Both: hurray!
- I'm a goldfish,
not a flying fish.
- Whoa, the wind's
getting even stronger.
- Follow me.
Come on, everybody.
This is my den.
- Wow, we build dens
in our backyard too.
But not like this.
- Everyone inside, quickly.
- Okay, mom.
- Me next.
- Cuddling together
like this helps us keep warm.
- And cozy.
- I think you're actually
sitting on my tail, polly.
- Sorry, cat.
- What do we do now?
- We wait in here
for the storm to pass.
- Sounds like a good plan to me.
Ah.
- Ah.
- It stopped snowing.
Thanks for letting
us share your den, polly.
- Maybe we better go home
and find our teddy.
- We lost him in the snow.
- Hm,
perhaps he has his own den.
- Let's go find out.
To the thinga-ma-jigger.
- Bye, cubs.
- Bye, polly.
- Good-bye.
- Bye-bye!
- Come back soon.
- To walk on the ice,
you need some sharp claws.
And tough gripping pads,
like on polar bear paws.
Cuddling up in a den
to hide from a storm,
Is another great way
to keep cozy and warm.
- No more slipping and sliding
in these extra grip snow boots.
- And these thick coats
are extra warm.
- Hey, look.
- What is it?
- I found something.
Teddy!
- We must've left him in there
when we played hide and seek.
- There he is.
Looks like he had his very own
den to keep him warm after all.
- Clever teddy.
- Sally, nick, hot chocolate.
- Time to head home
to your own den.
- For yummy hot chocolate.
- Yay!
- This is the best
and yummiest way to stay warm.
Mm.
[Giggles]
Ah, that's better.
- Welcome to hat chat.
- Today we're going
to chat with dr. Giggles.
- Happy birthday!
- Well, thank you very much.
- Oops, I got the card dirty.
- Ooh, wait just a minute.
A fingerprint.
- What's that?
- Look.
- Oh, you have a bunch
of loopy lines on your finger,
Dr. Giggles.
- Those are my fingerprints.
Those lines are ridges
in our skin
That help our fingers
feel things.
Every fingerprint is different.
Let's look at yours to compare.
- Look, mine are different.
- Every time you touch something
you leave behind fingerprints.
- Thanks for chatting with us
about fingerprints.
- And thank you for the card.
- I have so many senses.
Did you know that?
And you have the same ones
as the cat in the hat.
There is of course,
our sense of sight.
And to see with our eyes
can be such a delight.
Our sense of hearing
makes things clear,
As ears hear sounds
both far and near.
Luckily our sense of smell will
tell us when the smell is swell.
Can you guess which sense
I'm using now?
If you said touch,
then take a bow.
My favorite is our sense
of taste.
When in your mouth,
a treat is placed.
Our other senses
can tell us a lot.
If something's too cold,
or if it's too hot.
They sense movement and balance
when we dance, slide, and sway.
Our sense help guide
when we play, every day.

Both: time to take a picture

- I'll take the picture.
- And I'll guess what it is.
- Okay, sally, take a guess.
- Oh, a puzzle.
I see an animal
with a long tail, and big feet.
It looks like a kangaroo?
