- Hi, neighbor! Thanks
for visiting me at school.

- Hi, neighbor!
- I'm drawing a picture

of my family with crayons.
Come draw with me.

(Katerina babbling)

Hi!
- Hiya, toots!

- Want to see what
I've drawn so far?

Here's my mom...
and that's my dad.

And now, Margaret,
my little sister.

Margaret is smaller
than everybody in my family.

Aww, she's so cute.

I'm going to make
a big O mouth,

like this. She can be loud,

Hm-hmm. And she can be cute.

Guess who else I have to draw.

Me! OK!

Here's me...

and my red sweater

and my red shoes.

That's my whole family.

Ugga mugga, Mom!

Coochie-coochie-coo, Margaret!

I'm playing with my picture!

I wish I could really play
with my pictures,

then I could draw
whatever I wanted to play with.

(laughing)

Hey, do you want to make believe
with me?

Let's make believe
that we could go

inside the paper,
and draw, and play!

♪♪ Draw what I want to see ♪

♪ Draw and it's in front of me ♪

♪ Draw Tigey by my side to dance
with me in a silly line ♪

♪ Draw a tasty apple to eat ♪

♪ Or a drum that makes a b*at ♪

♪ Draw a cloud up in the air
and a rainbow to take us there ♪

♪ Imagine anything
you want to see ♪

♪ Draw what I want to see ♪

♪ Draw and it's
in front of me ♪♪

Ha! Ha!

Ha! Ha! Ha!
Wasn't that grrr-ific?

(Daniel gasps.)
I have a tigertastic idea!

I can make my picture so special

and sparkly with glitter!

Oooh, glitter!
Here's some glue...

Shake, shake, shake,
shake, shake... glitter!

Aw, it's so sparkly now!

I think I want to add
a little bit more glitter.

Shake, shake, shake. Maybe...

a little bit more glitter?
Shake, shake, shake.

Oops! All gone.
I guess that's enough glitter.

My picture
is so, so sparkly now.

Let's go put it in my cubby.
I like to draw, a lot.

What do you like
to draw pictures of?

Bye-bye, picture. See you later.

- Daniel! Come to my store!
- OK.

- Ahem! Oooh, Daniel,

what a surprise!
Nice to see you at my store.

- Wow! Look at the dinosaur.

(Daniel gasps.)
And the train,

and the doll, and the robot.
What kind of store is this?

- Everything Store!
(Daniel laughing)

- What do you sell?
- Everything!

- I like everything.

Hey, want me to make a sign for
your store, so everybody knows?

- Good idea, toots. I'll help!

- Come with us! You can help
pick out the colors

for our sign.
- This sign needs to be big!

- Really big!

So we can draw pictures
of... everything!

- Yeah! Everything is
a lot of stuff. There we go.

- Here's a train...
(girl humming)

...the engine. And...

what shape are the train cars?

Oh yeah! Rectangles! Choo-choo!

- I'm-making-a-ro-bot.
(Daniel giggles.)

- Here's a green dinosaur
with a long tail

Roaaar!
- And a round tambourine!

- Oh, that looks good.
- Everything!

- Did we draw everything?
- Yes. But... I think

the sign needs to be
so sparkly, toots,

so everyone will notice it.

I know what we need... Glitter!

- Yeah! Glitter!
Glitter! Glitter!

Grrr-ific idea, Miss Elaina.

I'll do the glue.
- Here we go!

Heeeey, where's the glitter?

Hmmm...Oh no, no, no, no!

- What's wrong?
- What's the matter,

Miss Elaina?
- Look, Teacher Harriet.

I need glitter to make my sign
sparkle, but it's all gone.

- Hmmm... This container was
full of glitter this morning...

- Oh! Um... I used up

all the glitter when I was
making my picture of my family.

- You used all the glitter?!

- I... I guess so.
I didn't mean to.

- I know you didn't
mean to, Daniel, but...

♪ Whatever you do ♪

♪ Think about
what other people need too ♪

The other kids in your class
need the glitter for
their art too.

- Yeah, I need
glitter for my sign!

- But there's no glitter for you

because I used it all up.

I'm sorry.
- I know you are, Daniel.

You'll remember next time.
- Well, let's go take this sign

to the store.
- OK.

I'll meet you there.
I want to do one more thing.

- OK. Come to
the Everything Store!

We have everything!

- Miss Elaina needs
lots of things to sell

in her Everything Store,
so I want to make her something.

She'll be so surprised.

Help me squish the clay,
like this.

Squish! Squish!

I'm going to roll these pieces
into one...

two...

three balls!

Now, I'll roll out
this piece of clay...

and curl it up like this.

Oooh! I like that curly part.

I think I'm done now. Uh oh!

I used up all the purple clay.

That means if someone else
needs the clay,

there won't be any!
What should I do?

I'm going to put some clay back.

- Hi. My name is Olivia

and my friend Belle is gonna
teach me how to make a bowl.

Hi, Bill.
- Hello, Olivia. How are you?

- Good.
- This is how you make pottery.

What I'm doing now is called
opening the clay.

- Cool!
- Kind of magical, huh?

- Mm-hmm.
- Alright, so now I got a bottom

and I'm going to start pulling
the pot up, from right there.

See how nice
and smooth that is?

- Yes.
- So, come on over here,

and you can see...

That's where it started

and this is where it finishes.

That's going to be
your piece of clay,

and we're gonna make
something out of that.

So you pick it up
and bring it over to the wheel.

I'll go with you. Right there.

Cool! Now I'm gonna show you
how to do it once,

and you're gonna do it.
So, you start

the wheel, and watch what I do.

There we go. OK, sit down.

Now, we're gonna put your right
hand like a Kn*fe.

Feel that pressure?
- Mm-hmm!

- You see that's uneven,

so I want to cut this
to make it even.

That's a great job.
You can come back any time.

- Thanks for coming,
neighbors. Bye.

(theme music)

- That looked like fun!
Thanks, neighbor.
