them and Mark Harden will be bringing in

his capuchin monkey and we made this

really neat video one of our best ever

wait till you see it it's called Five

Little Monkeys and we actually got them

to jump on the bed not only does it make

you laugh but it's also a fun way to

teach accounting well I can't wait to

see it but first I have an assignment

for you every year the station picks a

project in our community that we help

with and this year we've chosen a

homeless shelter downtown there are a

lot of children there who need our help

and your assignment is to help us raise

money for the shelter but we're just

kids what can we do you can do a lot and

I'm sure you will now let's sing those

jumping monkeys

[Music]

no more monkeys on the bed and Mrs

wilson was very firm that we need to

find a way to help out the shelter but

what can we do we're just kids that's

exactly what I said there's got to be

something we can do but what we're on

the air in five four 3 two roll the

opening title in three two one and take

[Music]

it and the host good morning and welcome

Animal Family

to the Kids Songs TV show the one and

only show made by kids for kids and

starring kids hi I'm Krisha Wood and I'm

Alexander Paul and I'm Billy Bigle we're

your hosts for the day and what a

wonderful day it is we have lots of

great music videos for you and our

special guest today is a monkey what's a

monkey a cute furry creature i bet he's

not as cute as me of course not Billy

now let's get started with a very cute

song about some very cute barnyard

animals like little bunny foo i went to

the animal the birds and the beasts were

there a big fellow by the line of the

moon was combing a hair you ought to

have seen the monk he jumped on the

elephant's trunk the elephant kneed and

fell on his knees and what became of the

monk and what became of the monk

our kids song 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]

little bunny booopping through the

forest scooping up the field and the

head down came the fairy and she said

"Little bunny boo I don't like your

attitude scooping up the field and

bumping 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

dare hide right in the little mouse

under his chair

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

playmate and that little rooster

[Music]

said I went to the animal fair the birds

and the beasts were there the big by the

line in the room was combing his 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 so Chris I

thought you would look good in this for

your top 10 segment today i really like

it and Janet I think we should put your

hair up for question time whatever you

think Katie you always make me look good

okay that was easy now what are you

going to do about Mrs wilson's

assignment she was serious this

assignment gives us a chance to do

something that really makes a difference

but the question is how what are we

Splish Splash

video features some very talented high

divers and some very acrobatic dolphins

and a very silly song and when we put

these three things together we got a

very amusing result it's called Splish

Splash splash splash i was taking a bath

kind of monkey is Shane shane is a

capuchin monkey where do they live they

come from South America the jungles do

they jump naturally yeah they're great

jumpers they live up in the trees and

they play around in the trees and jump

that's their whole life are they very

much like humans

well no we're related in that we're all

primates all the way from monkeys apes

to people are all primates but other

than that there's not a lot they're more

closely related to a bird actually they

behave like a bird oh but their hands

and feet look a lot like human hands and

feet well they are their hands and feet

are a lot like uh human hands you can

see she has a thumb on her foot give me

a hand give me your foot she has a thumb

on her foot and they can hold things

it's called an opposable thumb it

reaches over and that's how they grab

things they also have a thumb on their

hand which is opposable

is she easy to train they're not really

easy to train they're they're kind of

difficult because one they're real

flighty they like to take off to the

tops of the trees and then you have to

worry about getting them back they also

have a very short attention span they

don't they can't concentrate for very

long so you can only do a lot of little

tiny sessions a day to get them to learn

this is a big project we're all going to

work on it together and get help from

our families and neighbors and

schoolmates children I am really very

proud of you this is going to be

wonderful oh yeah this is going to cost

me money mr forbes

I knew they could do it they're such

fantastic kids yeah I guess sometimes it

seems that a job is just too big for a

kid to do but instead of giving up I

guess you just have to think a little

harder to find a way and get your

friends to help you a big job is easier

and a lot more fun when you have help
