won

zoomo here's a fun way to turn ordinary

sock into these groovy tiey

socks cat a of Yuma Arizona emailed us

the directions here's what you'll need

some fabric dye a disposable pan and a

plastic spoon the Dy can stain so be

sure everything you use is disposable

some rubber gloves so your hands don't

get covered with

thy some white cotton socks that have

already been washed soaked in water and

rung out and some thick elastics

first cover the area you're working on

with

newspaper then dissolve the D package in

warm water according to the directions

on the back of the package now for the

tie dying

part to make

Stripes wrap several elastics around

your

sock very tightly so wrap this around

here so I'm going to have 1 two three

four stripes in that sock

there we

go make sure it's really tight or the

stripes won't come out as

well here we go

okay to make

circles pinch a section of your sock and

tie it with an

elastic so here I'm going to pinch this

part of the sock right

there and I'll tie it like

this

go one more

time

here make it really

tight okay

there now put on your rubber

gloves

here

on oops my pinky finger stuff okay and

the other

one

get in there okay there we go now dip

your socks into the

dye you make here actually I'll start

with this one dip middle and yellow

o you want to leave your socks in the

diee for about a minute

so in

there squeeze it

out there we go now I'll ring it

out

there here I'll dip the ends in the

pink

ooh there we

go wow this looks really

cool there okay yeah put

here and now these here here's a really

cool way to do this if you grab the

circles like this and dunk the other

section of the sock in one color I'll do

it in

yellow bring that out and then put the

circles in a different color so here put

them in the

pink

wow really neat okay and now lay your

socks on the newspaper

to

[Music]

dry after your socks are dry run them

under cold water to rinse

them take these rubber gloves off

okay here we

go here are some that are already

dry you take the elastics

off they

look whoops like

this pretty groovy

huh make sure that you wash your socks

separately from the rest of your clothes

the first few times that you wash them

just in case the dye runs a little bit

you can also tie-dye other things using

these techniques like

pillowcases t-shirts and

napkins try it at

jine

[Music]

hi my name is Lexi I live in tishia

Connecticut and I'm 11 years

old I've always wanted to dance when I

was little so I asked my parents if I

can take dance lessons and they SED me

up and I've been dancing ever since I

was

three the dancing that I do is tap the r

Jazz tap is my favorite kind of

[Music]

dance the difference between the regular

shoe and the tap shoe is the tap shoe

has metal plates on the bottom which

makes a

sound I learn new steps by watching the

older girls I just watch them and I try

to do it

myself

and what started me into dancing was

watching old movies and Bradway dance

shows I tap everywhere I

go I even tap at the grocery store when

I'm with my mom I'll start skipping and

doing all these crazy

things I don't know why don't know how I

just do

it

if you wanted to try tapping for the

kids out there who really want to then

you should try it because it's really

fun you don't even need tap shoes you

can do with your bare feet on the floor

wherever you

[Music]

are I think my feet are instruments cuz

I can make them play any beat I hear

like for instance

ticktock

musical patterns are such a part of T

this is a slow

Rhythm this is a medium

Rhythm this is a fast

rhym and that is musical

pattern I have a lot of Dreams one dream

that I want to come true is for me to

get straight 80s to go off the C and be

a good dance teacher and open up my own

Studio but for now I'm going to keep on

[Music]

dancing

ooh okay Zoomers are You Ready for

today's Zoom side challenge it was sent

in by Anita e of Fresno California see

this grid it has six squares going this

way and six squares going that way for a

total of 36 squares here's aita's

challenge a player thinks of a repeating

pattern the pattern could be to start in

this square and take one step forward

and one to the left one step forward and

one to the left see how it repeats one

step forward one to the left

forward left and forward stop

players keep doing this until they reach

a square in this row I drew the pattern

on a smaller grid to show you what it

looks like see one step forward and one

to the left forward left forward left

forward left and forward see how it

repeats once a player thinks of a

pattern then the other players have to

try to guess what it is but if you move

into the wrong Square then you have to

move into the square that you came from

we're going to use orange plates to Mark

our paths we already came up with a

bunch of patterns I'm going to go first

everybody close your eyes okay all

right this is my

pattern

okay Eric why don't you be the first to

guess all right so pull down my pad I'll

get the excuse me get some plate my down

get a bunch of plat and don't forget if

you go in the wrong one you go back yep

[Applause]

[Music]

Zoom game dear Zoom we have a Zinger

that we love to play with friends

everyone takes off their shoes and

places them in a big pile next sit in a

circle and hook your arms

together without unhooking your arms

find your shoes put them on

and tie them as fast as you can Nina and

Gina s of wiing

Illinois okay guys I I think I have a

strategy before we start goe I think we

should um try to find our own shoes and

then the two people next to you so we

can help each other but I think if we

helped everyone like one at a time it

would be too slow that's a really good

idea so search for the search for those

shoes your own Sho I have mine well make

stay link oh yeah guys you have to stay

link I think this is mine I found I

found one of my oh I found them okay

this is somebody's it's not mine I'm not

sure if this is my shoe or

not I think that might be mine one

second Caroline has something to say

okay now we have our own shoes and

Francis is working on putting hers on we

first get hers on and then we'll all and

then we all tie them I almost have all

mine

on no no no wait hold on oh my gosh do

you see what Kenny did what he got of a

really good Str let's just show them

really quick we'll do it again we'll do

it again ready watch me and me and Kenny

pulled then I we switched laces I I went

under and then I finished went down and

then we let Eric finish oh that's a good

idea so will you do that for

M

I'll try it again I'll go underneath go

underneath yeah no the other way around
