Hi, neighbor.
I'm King Daniel!

Come and play with me.

This blanket
can be my king robe!

(laughing)
I'm king of the castle

and I'm going to sit on my...

pillow throne.
(laughing)

Look, there's Prince Elephant.

So, why are you at my castle,
Prince Elephant?

I came to tell you
something important.

What is it?
There's a dragon in the kingdom!

Ah! Oh no! A dragon?

We have to scare him away.

(gasp)
Prince Wednesday can help us

scare away the dragon.
He's really good at that.

Let's ask my mom if
Prince Wednesday can come over.

We really need him.
(Mom Tiger humming)

Mom! Mom!

Can Prince Wednesday
come over? Can he?

- (laughing): Slow down, Daniel.

Tell me what you need.
- I'm playing king of the castle

with our neighbor, and we have
to scare away a dragon,

and we really, really need
prince Wednesday's help.

So can he come over?
Can he, Mom?

- Oh, Daniel, Prince Wednesday
can't come over today.

- What? Prince Wednesday
can't come over, why?

- Because he's visiting his
cousin Chrissie all day today.

- Grrr! But I wanted him
to come over

and play king of the castle.

- Aww, I'm sorry.

Maybe you can help me
with my pictures.

Look! This is you as a baby. You
liked to play king then, too.

- Oh yeah!
Look how little I was.

(Daniel sighs.)
I really wanted Prince Wednesday

to come over.
- Oh, Daniel...

- Hey, maybe we can play
the trumpet.

Maybe I can play a trumpet song

that will make
the dragon come out.

♪♪♪

Hey! My trumpet's broken!

Hmmmm!

We need to go to Music Man
Stan's shop to fix my trumpet.

We so need to! Mom!

Mom, my trumpet, it's broken.

We need to go
to Music Man Stan's

to fix my trumpet.
Need to.

- But we can't go
to Music Man Stan's today.

- What?! Why can't we?

- Because Music Man Stan's
shop is closed today.

- Closed?! Grrr!

But that means I can't get
my trumpet fixed.

Grrr...
- Oh, my little Daniel.

- First Prince Wednesday
can't come over,

and now I can't go
to Music Man Stan's?

I can't do anything today!

- Aw, Daniel... I know
it feels like you can't do

what you want to do.
And when you feel like that

it means you're frustrated.
- Frustrated?

I am. I'm really frustrated.

- Now, I'm sure
there's something around here

you can do. You just have
to keep thinking.

- I can't! Grrr!

I'm too frustrated.

I will help you.

Do you want an idea
for something to do now?

- Yes, please.
- Why don't you feed the fish?

- Oh... OK.

Hi, fishies, are you hungry?

Blurp-blurp! Blurp!
Blurp-blurp-blurp!

Would you play
king of the castle with me?

You can be princes

and trumpet players
of an underwater castle.

(gasp)
Hey, that gives me an idea.

Do you want
to make believe with me?

Let's make believe
that I live with the fish

in an underwater castle!

- OK... how are you feeling now?

- I feel better.

But maybe you could play with me
for a little while?

- OK, I can do that.
- Let's go play in my room!

Maybe we can play
with the blocks?

- I would love to.

What a wonderful idea, Daniel.
(Daniel humming)

What do you want to make?
- A king's castle!

You can play too!
And Tigey can be King Tigey,

king of the castle!
- OK, you start

and I'll help.
(Mom Tiger humming)

(Daniel and Mom humming)

- Ha! Ha! Mom,
we're humming together!

(Mom laughing)
- Yep.

And building together too.
- I like when we play together.

- So do I!
- Almost there.

- Almost.
- Our castle is done!

Look how tall
we made the castle!

OK, King Tigey,
you should sit on the top

because you're the king! Ha! Ha!

King Tigey!

Uh-oh! He fell off.

- Here. Try again.
- Thanks.

Oh!

Grrr!
- Here.

- Grrrr!

There! Don't fall again,
King Tigey, OK?

Ah! Grrrr! Why can't I get Tigey

to stay on the castle
like I want him to?

I'm so frustrated! Grrrr!

What are you doing today,
neighbor?

- (Katerina Kittycat):
Meow-meow, hi, neighbor!

Today, Kieran is coming
to Brayden's house to play.

She's here!

Today they are making
an art project.

They have lots
of colorful paper,

and markers, and glitter!

That's a beautiful crown,
meow-meow!

See how Brayden
placed his decorations?

You can make your crown
any way you want.

Use your imagination!

What beautiful crowns
you're making!

Kieran made
her own special crown too.

(Katerina laughs.)

Time to let
the glitter crowns dry!

Careful!

Brayden's mom
has an idea to help!

She uses fabric from around
the house to make costumes!

What lovely silver capes!

And the finishing touch.

Mom helps
with some of the steps,

like using the stapler.

Brayden and Kieran
made their own special crowns

using their imagination.
And you can too!

Goodbye, neighbor!

- That looked like fun!
Thanks, neighbor.

- And that goes right here
and turn a bit.

There, there we go.
Just like that.

(Daniel sniffs.)
- Awww!

Hi, neighbor! I'm playing
restaurant at school.

I'm the cook. Come and play!

Hi, Katerina.
Is the table set?

- Allllmost.

OK, fork,
I'm going to tuck you

into your napkin bed now...

And, plate,
you go right here.

Yes, meow-meow,
table is all set.

The restaurant is now open!

hungry restaurant customers!

You sit here and, monkey,

Teacher Harriet, will you help
me find the pretend spaghetti?

- I will. When you lose
something, it can be helpful

to think of
the last place you saw it.

- OK...

- When was the last time
you played with the spaghetti?

- Umm... I think I was...

playing house this morning.

And I was pretending
to have spaghetti for dinner.

- OK, now think
hard and remember...

where were you playing house?

- I was playing house...
in the block corner!

- Well, let's go!

(Miss Elaina humming)
- There it is!

Hi, Miss Elaina, are you using
this pretend spaghetti?

- No thanks, toots.
I already ate.

And it was yum-yum-yummy
in my tum-tum-tummy!

- OK, thanks!

The spaghetti was in the block
corner, right where I left it!

- That's great, Daniel.
- And I'm not frustrated
anymore.

Thanks, Teacher Harriet.
- Happy to help.

- Better get back to the
restaurant, I have to cook!

Here we are.

Phew! I'm so glad
I found the spaghetti.

sometimes it helps to go back

Let's see what some of
our neighbors are doing today.

(Italian music)
- (O the owl): Hi, neighbor,

Meet our friends Leo
and chef Larry. They are going

to make spaghetti
and meatballs.

- The first thing we have to do
is wash our hands.

- OK.
- Let's do it.

And we're gonna take this meat
and this meat,

You put them in this bowl and
smash 'em all up together.

Would you like to squirt this
in there? Squirt it in there!

There you go. We're gonna
take a little bit of meat

and roll it into a ball.

Now we're gonna take the flour,
and put it right on the table.

I like your technique.

This is the way that my sweet
little grandmother taught
me how to do it.

You have to get it all together.

Now we're gonna roll it.

This is a pasta maker machine.

You take the dough
that we just made and you run it

through the machine
and it gets longer

and it gets flatter.
And then when it's all done,

we're gonna put it through
another part of the machine

and turn it into spaghetti.
Now we have spaghetti.

Now we're gonna put
our pasta into the pot.

Here we go!

- (O the owl): Hoo-hoo!
That looks delicious.

Thanks for making spaghetti

with us, neighbors. Bye.

- I like meeting new neighbors!
