07:51 [speaking in French]
07:55 We are not finished yet, let's add more colours.
07:57 Okay.
07:58 I'm following the road in red bricks.
08:02 Oh look, the Maroccan sea!
08:08 The whole park is radiant with the colours of nature!
08:14 Yes, all colours are shining in the sun.
08:17 And for the final touch, a big wheel in the colour of the rainbow.
08:22 [cheering]
08:29 A very beautiful rainbow park!
08:31 [cheering]
08:37 Get ready for the grand finale!
08:40 [cheering]
08:44 It's changing colours!
08:45 [cheering]
08:48 Everyone loves rainbows!
08:50 [cheering]
08:58 Thank you! Goodbye!
09:00 The rain has made us the colours of the rainbow!
09:04 [cheering]
09:05 I never thought we could make so many colours with what we have!
09:09 [laughing]
09:10 Goodbye again, thank you! Goodbye!
09:13 [crying]
09:19 [music]
09:22 And now, let's play Animal! Animal!
09:25 Hello everyone! Are you ready to play with us?
09:29 There is an animal hidden here, and you have to guess what it is.
09:32 Let's see your first clue.
09:34 Hm, I don't see what it could be at all.
09:39 And you? Let's try to know a little more.
09:41 Now we see his eyes, and that looks like his beak.
09:49 [music]
09:53 Look at his big paws with his claws.
09:56 I can tell it's a bird. But what kind of bird?
09:59 [music]
10:01 It looks like a vulture. Do you know what kind of bird it could be?
10:05 [music]
10:09 Oh, now I know what it is!
10:11 It's one of the biggest birds in North America.
10:14 Have you guessed now?
10:15 [music]
10:16 It's a condor!
10:18 [laughing]
10:19 Condors are powerful and graceful birds.
10:22 They can spend hours flying and spinning around,
10:25 beating their wings about once an hour, looking for food on the ground.
10:30 Goodbye!
10:32 And now, let's play with Mr. Bunny and Kitty's friend.
10:39 There's something hidden under these leaves.
10:43 Let's see if we can guess what it is.
10:45 So, Mr. Bunny, are you ready to play?
10:48 [laughing]
10:49 Okay!
10:50 [laughing]
10:53 [laughing]
10:54 [music]
10:56 It looks a bit like a stone, don't you think?
10:59 Can you show us a little more?
11:01 Okay!
11:02 [laughing]
11:04 It looks like a shell, don't you think?
11:07 Let's try to find the animals that live in shells.
11:10 [music]
11:13 Now I see its legs.
11:15 It has a shell and pretty little legs.
11:17 I wonder what it might be.
11:19 Is it a turtle?
11:22 No, no, it can't be a turtle.
11:24 Uh, Mr. Bunny, can we see it in its entirety?
11:28 Okay!
11:29 Come on, friends, come and help me! Come on, guys!
11:32 [laughing]
11:35 Now I know what it is.
11:39 It's a tattoo!
11:40 Its claws are used to dig the ground and its shell is used to protect itself from other animals.
11:45 Goodbye!
11:46 [music]
11:49 Life is a song with Kiddy
11:52 And for Kiddy, she's a welcome one
11:55 Dance to it very gently
11:59 Learn it by having fun
12:02 It's funnier to get used to it
12:05 Learn it by having fun
12:08 Life is a song with Kiddy
12:11 And for Kiddy, she's a welcome one
12:15 I'm starving. It's not time for breakfast yet.
12:25 Oh, I wish Mom would hurry.
12:28 I'm so hungry, I feel like I'm going to faint.
12:31 Make a wish, okay?
12:33 Does that mean you're going to make a wish to the magic ball?
12:37 We'd like to go to a pastry shop.
12:39 We'd like to eat lots of cakes.
12:41 That's a really great wish.
12:43 I couldn't have wished for anything better.
12:45 Come on, ball, let's go on a trip!
12:47 Let's go on a trip
12:51 To the sky and the clouds
12:54 To the land of dreams
12:57 To the village of the kids
13:00 Fly, fly, my ball
13:04 Carried by the wind
13:07 Adventure awaits us
13:10 Let's go on a trip
13:12 To make me happy, you must be with me
13:16 And nothing in the world will ever separate us
13:19 Come and have fun in the rainbow
13:23 Let's go on a trip
13:25 Our imagination must be on our side
13:29 Because we never know where we'll be carried
13:32 Come with me, I'll take you on a trip
13:37 Pastry shop
13:45 Here's our pastry shop
13:47 It's the cakes, come on, let's go!
13:49 That's strange, there's no one here
13:54 The shop is empty
13:56 I hope it's not closed
13:58 That's really strange, the pastry chef wouldn't leave without locking the door
14:02 It's true, but there's no cake here
14:06 Oh look, the baker left a note saying he'd be back soon
14:10 What?
14:11 He said he went to the market to buy raisins
14:14 I'll make fresh cakes as soon as I get back
14:17 If you can't wait, you can make your own cakes
14:20 We're doing it?
14:21 I hope he meant it and that it wasn't a joke
14:24 We'll start by lighting the oven
14:26 We've got everything we need on hand
14:28 We just need to decide what we're going to make
14:30 Chocolate biscuits!
14:32 I'm thinking about it all of a sudden, we won't be able to do anything if we don't have a recipe
14:35 The best and most creative pastry chefs don't need a recipe, we'll just have to improvise
14:40 Ok
14:41 I hope I haven't kept my customers waiting too long
14:45 Lucky me, there's no one here
14:49 Apparently no customer has come by
14:51 It's more fun than buying fresh cakes
14:54 At least that way, we're sure the cakes are exactly how we like them
14:58 Don't look! I'm using a secret recipe that no one should know about
15:02 Ok
15:03 And hop!
15:06 A big glass of water
15:08 I hate dry cakes
15:10 The dough doesn't look like Mum's
15:13 I wonder what's wrong
15:15 I don't think Mum uses as much water in her recipe
15:17 I know but I wanted to vary it a bit
15:22 You know, something tells me we're going to revolutionise the art of pastry
15:26 That's right, a great pastry chef must know how to take risks to innovate
15:32 Don't you agree?
15:33 Yes
15:34 You see, something tells me I could become the greatest pastry chef of all time
15:39 An egg, there you go
15:41 Then we mix it again and again and again and again and again
15:46 Now we're going to give our biscuits a shape
15:50 You don't use a cookie cutter?
15:52 You're going to shape them by hand one by one?
15:55 Oh Kitty, you're really a great artist!
15:57 I'd even say better, I'm a genius!
16:00 What have you done so far?
16:02 So far I've made birds, little rabbits and I don't know what else
16:07 They're not bad at all and I don't know what else
16:10 Now we're going to bake them until they're golden brown
16:14 Then we'll take them out and taste them
16:18 And that's it! Now we just have to rest
16:21 It's a good thing for me because I'd like to take a nap
16:24 How long do they stay in the oven?
16:27 We'll take them out when they start to smell good
16:30 I'm not sure I can stay awake
16:34 Me neither
16:37 I'm so hungry
16:39 I'd better hurry and take the biscuits out of the oven
16:59 Otherwise they'll be completely burnt
17:02 Oh no! They're inedible!
17:04 Oh my goodness! How long have I been asleep?
17:11 My biscuits have disappeared!
17:20 What do you mean?
17:22 I want to eat them
17:24 I'm hungry!
17:26 I'm hungry!
17:28 I'm hungry!
17:30 They've disappeared!
17:32 What do you mean?
17:34 I mean our biscuits have disappeared!
17:36 What happened?
17:38 That's the mystery
17:40 These biscuits were a real masterpiece
17:42 They were really good, we need to call the police
17:45 Rule number one, a good baker should never fall asleep while he's baking something
17:51 Now if you like, let's get to practice
17:53 I'm ready
17:54 Me too
17:56 Mix the ingredients together in any way you can to make a good pastry
17:59 You need to know how to choose and measure them
18:01 Yes sir!
18:02 First, sift the flour so that it's as smooth and light as a cloud
18:07 Sift the flour so that it's as smooth and light as a cloud
18:14 Put in the right amount of butter first
18:16 You always have to follow the recipe carefully
18:19 Before adding the eggs, you have to break them
18:22 I forgot to do it last time, I won't make the same mistake again
18:26 Then mix again and again and again and again
18:30 Now add the flour to the eggs and butter and mix again
18:34 Slowly and gently, it's very important
18:36 Look at us, we're doing as much as we can
18:39 I never thought it was so fun to follow a recipe by heart
18:42 That's true and it's the best way to get a good result
18:45 But once you've learnt it, nothing will stop you from making your own recipes
18:49 We'll spread the dough out well and that way we'll get very strong cookies
18:52 I'm going to make thicker ones so they're softer
18:55 And now, here are the cookie cutters to finish
18:58 Yes!
19:00 I have a preference for those in the shape of a heart
19:02 Me too, I'm going to make lots of hearts
19:05 Let's start with making one
19:07 Who wants to make star-shaped cookies?
19:09 I'm going to make a few for my mum
19:12 Press very gently
19:14 I'm going to make a circle and I'm going to make a triangle
19:17 A little rabbit
19:18 A bear
19:19 A deer
19:20 A flower
19:21 And a tree
19:22 You must never use a fork with an adult
19:25 Now we wait
19:27 I always fall asleep here
19:30 I'm way too excited
19:32 Well, everyone's still awake
19:39 And you'll recognise that it was worth the wait, right?
19:43 Watch out, it's hot
19:46 They're perfectly done
19:48 I'd even say better than that
19:49 I think we've just made the most beautiful cookies in the world
19:52 They're delicious! I want to make more, don't you?
19:58 We haven't even finished eating those
20:00 What else do you like besides cookies?
20:05 Tarts with apples, strawberries, rhubarb, flan with apricots and cherries, millefeuille,
20:10 plums with grapes, beignets with raspberries, eclairs, religious cookies and everything
20:14 Very good, I think you're ready. Now I'm going to watch you make them
20:17 And this time I'm going to make a cookie for you all by myself
20:21 Now that you know the basic rules, you can make cookies of all shapes and all flavours
20:26 Here's one for you, Kitty
20:28 Oh, how nice
20:30 You've become real bakers
20:33 Star cookies and grapes
20:36 This one's chocolate
20:38 This one's fresh and this one's hazelnut
20:40 Ginger, almonds
20:42 What's that?
20:43 Fish!
20:45 Oh, Kitty, you're so...
20:47 You really have a lot of ideas
20:51 Here, taste this one, it's tuna
20:53 And now we're going to play with Mr Bunny, Kitty's friend
21:00 Mr Bunny will help us find out which animal is hiding under the bed
21:06 Let's go
21:07 Okay
21:08 [laughing]
21:15 Here's a part of the animal's body that's been hidden
21:20 We need another clue, please
21:22 Okay
21:23 Let's see, it looks like an insect's paw
21:28 But what kind of insect? Let's try to find out more
21:30 Okay
21:31 I think that's its head
21:36 But I'm not sure, it's hard to say for now
21:39 Have you guessed what it is?
21:44 I think I've found it but I'm not sure yet
21:47 Let's see if we can guess before it's completely discovered
21:50 Come on, guys, come and help me
21:52 Now you've found it
21:59 It's a beetle, just like the ones that live in my garden
22:03 You've never seen a beetle before
22:05 Well, there you go, thanks Mr Bunny, bye!
22:09 And now we're going to play Animals, Animals
22:14 Can you guess which animal is hiding?
22:18 Every time the cubes spin, we get a clue
22:20 Let's see how quickly you can solve this riddle
22:24 Here's clue number 1
22:27 Look at the cube in the middle, have you guessed what it is?
22:32 Not me
22:33 I see a little paw, and that wouldn't be its tail by any chance
22:38 Here's another clue
22:40 I was right, it's definitely its tail
22:43 And I think I know what animal it is
22:46 I'm sure you've guessed as well
22:52 Very good, now let's see if we were right
22:55 That's what I thought, it's the tail of a beetle
23:01 That's what I thought as well, it's a kangaroo
23:04 It carries its baby in the pocket on its belly
23:07 Do you know where kangaroos live? In Australia
23:10 As you can see, kangaroos carry their babies in their belly pockets
23:14 and they move around making big sounds
23:16 They're really adorable, don't you think?
23:19 Bye!
23:20 And now, very slowly so as not to drop everything
23:30 Mimi, can I play with you?
23:33 Oh how nice, are you making a castle?
23:36 Wow!
23:39 Oh no!
23:41 Oh no, I'm sorry, will you forgive me?
23:47 Don't worry, it's alright
23:49 I've had enough of playing alone
23:51 -It's a good thing -Me too
23:53 I don't really know what to build
23:56 Do you want to start?
23:58 Look, it looks like a little house
24:01 It's very simple, you just need a rectangle with a triangle on top
24:05 I know, put that little rectangle on the roof of the house
24:09 -You mean like this? -Yes
24:11 It looks like a fireplace
24:12 It's very clever, we're having a good time together
24:15 Yes, it's because we have imagination
24:17 Look, that's the moon in the sky
24:21 It looks like it's night, it also looks like it's the sun
24:27 No, that's the moon
24:29 I don't agree, it looks more like the sun
24:31 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, that's not the sun
24:34 I'll show you the sun, look carefully
24:37 That's the sun, do you see the rays?
24:40 That's right, you're right, that really looks like the sun
24:43 So we agree, that's the moon
24:47 Very good, now we have day on one side and night on the other
24:51 Don't you think there's something missing?
24:53 What do we see at night in the sky besides the moon?
24:56 You'll find it stupid to ask me that, but what else is there in the sky?
25:01 The stars! We'll put a lot of triangles to make the stars
25:05 I know, we should look for another shape
25:08 Or another colour
25:10 No, that's not right at all, it doesn't look like stars at all
25:14 I've got an idea, let's make the sun as it was
25:17 We could have made a star, remember? Look
25:20 You started with a circle, then you put triangles and we'd have made a star
25:25 That's not a bad idea, but it still looks like the sun I think
25:30 And it's really weird to see the sun at the same time as the moon
25:34 That's true, I was wondering what was wrong
25:37 Do you see a solution?
25:39 Er, yes!
25:41 We just have to remove the circle and what's left will form a star
25:46 That's perfect! You're really brilliant!
25:50 Without bragging, I think you're right
25:52 We'll fill the sky with stars and then we'll do experiments
25:58 We'll invent all kinds of houses
26:00 Playing with shapes is a good exercise for your imagination
26:04 We need to see big, ok? We'll build a whole city
26:08 That'll make a lot of houses to build
26:10 What can we do? We've got all our time, we've got nothing else to do
26:13 Ok, let's get to work!
26:14 Perfect, let's get to it!
26:15 You start with one end and I'll do the other
26:18 One more thing, wouldn't it be boring to build the same thing over and over again?
26:23 Yes, you're right
26:25 Let's drop the city, let's move on to plan number 2
26:28 Actually...
26:29 What is it?
26:30 Why can't we make as many things as possible with shapes?
26:34 Yes!
26:35 Great! That'll be a great game!
26:38 Let's see how many things we can imagine in the space of 5 minutes
26:41 Have you found anything? Turn back time!
26:44 Look, Titi! I've made a bus!
27:02 You've won 10 points for that!
27:05 Now let's see if you can guess what it is
27:09 Oh that's easy! It's a knot for the hair
27:12 I've just thought of something so big that I'll need 3 cubes
27:18 Guess what it is
27:19 Oh I've got it! It's a sailboat
27:23 It looks like you want to travel
27:27 I love taking the bus and the boat, that's for sure
27:30 You know, one day we'll be able to travel to the stars
27:33 and we'll be able to go to other planets too
27:36 Wait a minute, look! I've got a good idea!
27:39 You can't take the bus or the boat to go into space
27:43 What you need is a rocket
27:45 Wow! It's beautiful!
27:50 Now it's your turn
27:52 I'll make an animal, then you'll have to try and guess what it is
27:58 It's a bear!
28:04 Hey! What if I made your portrait?
28:07 I think it looks like you too
28:10 Since we're twins, it's hard to recognise us
28:15 Maybe this will help us
28:17 Oh yes, it's perfect!
28:18 Hello Mimi! Now everyone can recognise you
28:22 And when I want to be you, all I have to do is change my ribbon
28:26 Yes
28:27 Come on, let's keep playing
28:30 Yes
28:31 That's original, but I don't know what it's called
28:40 First it was a ribbon, now it's a butterfly
28:46 Hey, what do you think of that?
28:51 With four triangles, we make a square
28:54 What do you mean?
28:56 I understand, by putting them together with the top in the middle
28:59 That's it, you got it right from the start
29:02 Actually, mine is a rectangle
29:06 Oh yes, and I've just noticed something else
29:09 These two triangles placed side by side make a bigger triangle
29:16 The two same triangles placed this way make a rhombus
29:27 Wow, playing with shapes is interesting
29:30 Yes, and the best part is that we can discover shapes for hours
29:34 It's really fantastic
29:35 I know, look at all the ones around us
29:38 Can you count them?
29:39 I can see squares and rectangles all over the room, can't you?
29:43 The drawers where Mum puts our shirts, socks and underwears are all three rectangles
29:49 And you don't know, look, we also sleep in a rectangle
29:53 Oh yes!
29:55 The door is rectangular too
29:57 Imagine how stupid it would be if it was round
30:00 Yes, but that could be original
30:04 A round door would be really artistic
30:08 Or a triangular door, that would be original too
30:11 Oh Kitty, stop saying such nonsense!
30:14 But the roof of the house is really triangular
30:18 Look at the drawers, they're round
30:22 Stop joking around, will you?
30:24 There's another rectangle here, our bedside table
30:28 Oh yes, the biggest table is the one in the dining room and it's all round
30:34 Let's take a break
30:35 I wonder how many shapes there are
30:40 There must be billions and billions and billions
30:43 I don't know, Dad could tell us that
30:46 He always says that
30:49 he knows everything that needs to be thought about
30:51 If he doesn't know the answer, he'll tell us it's because it's not worth it
30:55 So let's ask Mum
30:57 She always knows everything
30:58 That's true
30:59 What does it mean when someone's not in shape?
31:03 Everyone has a shape
31:05 I have the shape of Kitty for example
31:07 And in a twin, I'd say it's great
31:10 And now let's play with Mr Bunny
31:16 I wonder who's hiding under the bed this time
31:19 Are you ready to play?
31:21 You too, Mr Bunny?
31:23 Enjoy your meal!
31:24 Ok!
31:25 That looks like a wing to me
31:39 It's a bit like a bird
31:42 That looks like a wing to me
31:44 If it's a wing, it's a good start
31:46 I think it's an animal that flies
31:52 Yes, a kind of bird
31:54 I think I've got it!
32:00 But there must be a trap
32:02 Let's try to find out more
32:03 Look very carefully
32:06 I've got what it is now
32:08 Let's see the rest of his body
32:10 Come on, boys! Get to work!
32:13 I think it's his beak that's betrayed him
32:15 That's the colour of his plumage
32:17 It's a bird that can talk
32:19 It's a parakeet!
32:21 You guessed it right!
32:22 Hello Mr Parakeet!
32:24 Goodbye!
32:28 I promise, Mum, it won't be long
32:39 And above all, be very careful
32:41 Understood!
32:42 Mimi!
32:46 What?
32:47 Something's wrong, girls?
32:49 It's really strange but my shoes have got a bit of a wrinkle
32:52 I've got trouble getting my feet in too
32:54 They've become too small for you
32:59 You'll have to get bigger ones
33:01 If you play in the park with these, you'll risk getting your feet hurt
33:04 You wouldn't want to suffer the martyr, would you?
33:06 It's alright, Mum, don't worry about us
33:09 Very well, but if your feet hurt, come straight home, ok?
33:13 Yes, I promise, Mum!
33:14 We'll just go and get our feet a bit bigger and we'll come back right after
33:17 As you wish, I hope it'll be ok
33:21 [children laughing]
33:39 What's wrong, girls?
33:48 Are you having a funeral tonight?
33:50 They've got a foot injury, poor things
33:52 They've got a foot injury, both of them?
33:53 But what's happened? Tell me
33:55 We played cat and mouse this afternoon but I think my shoes were too small
33:59 Mum told us not to go but it was so sunny we couldn't resist
34:03 But why did you put on shoes that were too small to run all afternoon?
34:07 They're the ones we prefer, they're the most practical for running
34:10 They used to be very comfortable, now they're too small
34:13 I think it would be more fair to say that you're the one who's grown up
34:17 What? We haven't done anything, they've grown up
34:20 You think we've grown up? I don't feel any taller than I did before
34:24 But you do, shoes don't change their size, it's our feet that grow
34:29 Soon you won't even be able to put on your shoes
34:31 So it's not because they're too small that they've grown up
34:37 They look smaller because we've grown up
34:42 So how do you explain that, Dad?
34:44 If we've grown up and our shoes are still the same, what's small?
34:48 What? I don't quite understand what you mean
34:50 Well, that's what I was just saying too
34:53 Wait, I think I understand what she's trying to say
34:57 It's a bit like what they sometimes say in books
35:00 They always say things like "it was a small town with huge houses"
35:05 or "it was a big bouquet of pretty little flowers"
35:09 It's hard to imagine what they're trying to say, you know
35:12 So how do you know if it means that something is big or small
35:15 or if it's huge or tiny? You'd have to know
35:18 Well, I must say that's a very good question
35:20 It's such a good question that I don't really know how to answer it
35:23 Well, everything is relative, really
35:25 Saying that something is big or small depends entirely on the person who's looking at it, you see?
35:29 Here, I have an example that might help you
35:32 You must have noticed that up in your room, you have clothes that are perfectly your size
35:37 But what if your mum tried to put them on?
35:39 They'd be way too small
35:45 Exactly! Whereas your mum's apron is perfectly fine, it's just the right size
35:49 But for me, they'd be too big
35:54 Exactly! That's why they say that something is big or small
35:58 Do you understand?
35:59 Yes, I see, I think I understand
36:01 So, would you say in a bus that it's big or small?
36:04 Big!
36:05 And why?
36:06 Because we know, you can see it
36:08 I see, they say it's big because it's bigger than us
36:11 Exactly! But how is it compared to a plane?
36:14 Well, I don't think a bus is bigger than a plane
36:18 What do you think, Kitty?
36:20 I'd say it's smaller than a plane
36:22 Wait a minute, Dad, you're not making us walk, are you?
36:25 Oh, I just wanted to tease you a bit just to have some fun, my dear
36:28 So, it all depends on the person who's talking
36:30 The point is to know if that person is small or big
36:33 It's getting more and more complicated, I think
36:35 I'm starting to get lost in all these explanations
36:38 Our shoes were too small for us
36:41 But Mum's apron would be too big for us
36:44 A bus is something big
36:46 But they say it's smaller than a plane
36:49 Don't worry, you'll understand when you're older
36:56 So, how can we be sure when we see something?
36:59 It could be a big house or a small bus
37:02 Or a huge flower bigger than our shoes
37:05 Or a big apron, but it's not that big
37:08 Big, small, large, narrow!
37:15 Remember when Mimmy was talking about books
37:21 and how it was a question of huge houses and little flowers?
37:24 Well, how can we tell if it's big or small?
37:27 There's no such thing as a good faith to tell if you're big or small
37:31 No, there isn't
37:32 So, imagine you're reading a book and it's a question of a house
37:36 What kind of house do you see? Tell me
37:38 I see a nice house, just like ours
37:40 With a red door and a blue roof
37:44 What I see is...
37:46 a nice little house with a pink roof and lots of flowers
37:50 That's very nice, but have you noticed how you've seen 2 different things starting from the same word?
37:55 And that's why it's difficult to tell with exactitude
37:58 what's big or small, good or bad, pretty or ugly
38:01 That's also one of the reasons why reading is so appealing
38:06 Everyone can see things differently from their neighbour
38:08 and we all take part in the action in our own way as we read
38:11 The flowers I see can be blue, whereas the ones you see can be red
38:15 Yes, of course, but all the rest of the time, I mean when you don't read
38:19 Imagine you're a bigger apple than ordinary apples
38:22 Because it's bigger than the apples you usually see
38:25 you can say it's really a big apple
38:27 And if it's smaller than usual, you can say it's a very small apple
38:31 Ah, ok! So there's no real answer, is there?
38:34 It's up to us to say whether something is big or small
38:37 Is that what you mean?
38:38 Remember you're still very young
38:40 Things will seem very different to you when you're older
38:43 You'll see things very differently, except...
38:46 Except?
38:47 Except the things everyone agrees on, if I may say so
38:51 Like planes, right Dad?
38:54 Like planes
38:56 So things I find really big now will seem much smaller to me in a few years
39:01 They'll even seem very, very small to me, right?
39:04 That's right, just like your shoes today in the park
39:08 I see, so something that seems small to me now
39:11 could seem much smaller to me in a few years, is that right?
39:14 Yes, I think you'll see it often in the future
39:18 Do you really think so?
39:19 If that's the case, you'll keep our shoes so we can see how small they are
39:23 What a funny idea!
39:24 No, not at all! We want to see how small we can make them
39:28 Why would you do something like that?
39:31 Wouldn't it be more like seeing how much you've grown?
39:34 No Mum, it's just to look at them and see how much they're getting smaller
39:38 What?
39:39 And while we're on the subject, why are there always too many vegetables and not enough meat?
39:45 And the dessert is even smaller
39:49 Huh?
39:50 I think everyone agrees, the dessert always seems small
39:58 But where could they be?
40:09 How could I have lost them?
40:17 I don't know where to look anymore
40:19 Tell me what you're looking for, I'll help you
40:21 I can't find these things anymore
40:23 A thing, maybe anything
40:25 You know, we played with them the other day
40:27 They're tiny, shiny, with lots of pretty colours
40:30 I forgot the name of these things
40:32 If you drew them, it would help us
40:34 They have little holes so we can put a thread through them
40:37 Can we play with them?
40:38 Yes, but Mum wears them around her neck
40:40 She bought us some the other day when we went to school
40:43 Pearls!
40:45 When Mum had her necklace re-stitched, the shop we went to sold pearls to people who wanted to make their necklace
40:51 She said "Yes, and we've decided to start a collection"
40:54 It's silly to forget such a simple word
40:59 It happens to everyone, you know
41:01 I've already forgotten easier words
41:03 Since I've forgotten the word "pearl", I'm not surprised I've forgotten where I put mine
41:09 I wonder if my memory doesn't look like a piece of gravel
41:13 I think I remember where you put them
41:15 I think they're in the first drawer of your cupboard
41:18 But of course, they're in my jewellery box
41:21 I made a bag to put them away
41:23 I don't have as many as you do
41:26 That's because you bought lots of sweets with your pocket money that day
41:30 I spent all my money on pearls
41:33 Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, twenty-eleven, twenty-twelve, thirty-three
41:38 You know what, Mum? I'm lost
41:40 I don't know where I am
41:42 Let's start again
41:43 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen and...
41:51 Is this one yours or mine?
41:55 I'm ashamed to say it but I've still got it mixed up in my accounts
41:58 I think I had fourteen, but I'm not sure
42:01 We'll have to start all over again
42:04 Ok
42:05 You know, Mimi...
42:07 What?
42:08 It's very hard
42:09 Yes, and with all these colours, it's easy to get it wrong
42:12 Can Dad help us?
42:15 With pleasure, girls
42:16 There's nothing funnier than a game of calculations
42:19 What's a game of calculations?
42:21 It's a game of counting pearls
42:23 Yes, it can be
42:24 You know, numbers can be very funny
42:26 Let's do a bit of calculations
42:28 Oh no! Calculations aren't a game, they're work!
42:31 It's the subject we learn at school
42:33 I hate doing calculations
42:35 It gives me a stomach ache just thinking about it
42:38 But you like playing the game of riddles
42:40 Calculations are games in which you use numbers instead of words or drawings to find the answer
42:44 Calculations are a game for you because you like numbers
42:47 but I always get it wrong when I try to count
42:50 Every game has its rules and calculations are easy when you know the rules
42:54 I knew there was something about that
42:56 I'll teach you a few of these tricks if you like, Kitty
42:59 What you want to do is find out how many pearls you have
43:02 The only thing to do is count them all
43:04 Come on, let's do this
43:05 Kitty, you start. I want you to count the pearls I have in front of me
43:09 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
43:12 Very good, it's easy to count up to 5
43:14 So we'll stop at 5 and then we'll start again from scratch
43:17 We'll count another row of 5 pearls and we'll put them near the first row
43:21 There we go, we now have 2 rows and each row has 5 pearls
43:25 2 times 5, what does that make?
43:27 2 times 5 makes 10
43:29 5 pearls in the first row and 5 pearls in the second row
43:32 5 plus 5 makes 10
43:34 Wasn't that too hard?
43:36 Exactly, we have 10 pearls
43:38 Now we'll put those 10 pearls aside
43:40 Nobody got it wrong, we've already counted 10 pearls
43:43 So we'll start from scratch and we'll count 2 more rows of 5 pearls
43:46 and we'll get another group of 10 pearls
43:49 10 pearls here and 10 pearls there
43:51 2 times 10, what does that make?
43:53 I've got it! 10 plus 10 makes 20
43:56 Calculating isn't that hard, it's fun
43:58 See? And now that you know how to count the rows of pearls, you can count anything
44:03 That's what's so good about maths
44:05 It works the same way as counting pearls or elephants
44:09 I'd be surprised if Kitty and I ever counted elephants
44:12 But if that were to happen to you, you'd know what to do
44:15 Thanks for helping us
44:17 I love helping my girls
44:19 Great! We've got the smartest pearl in all the land
44:24 I've got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 pearls
44:28 I've already got 2 rows of 5 pearls
44:30 You need to make another one
44:32 Ok
44:33 There we go, 5 plus 5 makes 10
44:35 Now we each have 10 pearls
44:37 And all together, 10 plus 10 equals 20
44:40 We'll add more
44:42 There we go, I'll add 1, 2, 3, 4 more
44:45 And here I'll add 5 more
44:47 5 plus 4 makes 9
44:49 So we both have 29 pearls
44:52 I'd like it to be fruity and sweet but not too sweet
44:56 I need to follow the recipe exactly
44:58 Are you making strawberry jelly?
45:01 Yes, that's right
45:02 Can you help me count these strawberries please?
45:04 I need to do it properly because I need to have the exact number of strawberries I need
45:08 Don't worry, I'm very good at counting things
45:11 I know but if that's what you want, I won't entrust this job to anyone else
45:16 I can't let myself get distracted, I need to focus
45:21 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
45:24 I'm glad you're doing this for me
45:26 I always get confused when I count
45:28 The important thing is to keep your mind focused on what you're doing so you don't lose track of your thoughts
45:33 Oh no, that's not true, I don't remember where I was
45:36 Oh, I'll have to start again
45:38 What do we do now?
45:41 Can we count them by colour?
45:44 First we'll see how many colours we have
45:46 Then we'll count the pearls of each colour
45:48 Ok, go on
45:50 There's red, blue, orange and yellow
45:54 That makes 4 colours
45:55 The best way to count them would be to make groups of 10 of each colour
45:59 I don't have 10 of a single colour and even less in the 4 different colours
46:05 How do I do that?
46:06 Well, we make groups of 9
46:08 I have 2 groups of 8 pearls, 1 group of 7 pearls and 1 group of 6 pearls
46:12 How do I make all the groups the same?
46:14 Hey, I'll do what Dad would do
46:17 I'll take out other pearls from my bag and I'll add them to each group, ok?
46:22 8 blue pearls plus 2 blue pearls makes 10 blue pearls
46:26 6 orange pearls plus 4 makes 10 orange pearls
46:29 8 yellow pearls plus 2 yellow pearls makes 10 yellow pearls
46:32 But he's making groups of 5 and we'll see if the count is right
46:35 5 blue pearls plus 5 blue pearls equals 10
46:38 5 yellow pearls plus 5 yellow pearls makes 10
46:41 5 orange and 5 orange makes 10 orange pearls
46:44 But you only have 7 red pearls and there aren't any more in the bag
46:48 It's no big deal, we can still count the number of pearls by adding the 4 groups of each colour
46:54 10 blue, 10 yellow, 10 orange, 3 times 10 makes 30
46:58 Plus 7 red pearls makes a total of 37 pearls
47:01 Wow! See, we found the problem on our own without asking Dad or anyone else to give us the answer
47:08 Dad's gonna be proud of us when he knows how fast we've learnt to play with maths
47:13 We're gonna follow in the footsteps of the maths genius
47:16 And if the book contains our gift for maths, we're lucky to have it
47:20 That's true! When you see maths as a game, it's a lot easier and more fun
47:25 So I'll start again with a group of 1, 2, 3...
47:29 Just a question, I'm using 70 pears per pot, do I need to...
47:33 Oh no, not again! I can't believe it, I don't know where I am anymore
47:37 I can't concentrate, I can't do it
47:39 We'd better ask our girls for help, they're very good at maths
47:43 Did you know that?
47:45 Another very funny little game, this one's called Animal Animal
47:52 It's a riddle and it's fun
47:55 Are you ready? An animal is hiding in here
47:58 You have to guess what this mysterious animal is
48:01 It looks like a wing, doesn't it? Can we see more?
48:11 What could it be? Maybe a tail?
48:15 Look! I think I know what it is
48:22 Did you find it? Did you guess what it is?
48:29 Come on, one last clue
48:31 I knew it! It's a hen! A big, well-behaved hen
48:37 We had a lot of fun, didn't we?
48:40 See you soon! Bye!
48:43 Let's continue with more little games
48:56 In this one, we're going to connect little dots
48:59 Are you ready to play with me?
49:02 Ok, look carefully
49:04 You're going to try and find the shape that's drawn when you connect the dots
49:09 Here are a few clues
49:11 The mysterious object can take you to the other side of the earth
49:13 and it needs air, but it's not a plane
49:16 It can be big enough to hold a hundred people
49:20 and small enough to hold in your bathtub
49:23 Have you already guessed?
49:26 I bet you're almost there
49:30 Hey, can you spin it?
49:33 No
49:34 What is it?
49:44 That's it, you know it!
49:46 And here it is in its entirety
49:47 Did you guess correctly?
49:49 Yes, it's a sailboat
49:51 Bye!
49:53 The End
49:56 Thanks for watching!
49:59 Kids, life is fun
50:01 And kids, it's welcoming
50:04 Don't dance too slowly
50:08 Learn it by having fun
50:11 It's funnier to learn it by having fun
50:17 With Kids, life is fun
50:20 And kids, it's welcoming
50:24 Hello! We're going to start with a little game
50:28 It's called Animal Animal
50:30 There are lots of animals hidden in this cube
50:33 You can guess which one will come out
50:36 Is everyone ready?
50:37 Come on, let's go! First clue
50:39 That's not much
50:44 We'll need to look a bit more
50:46 Wow, I don't know what it is but it must be really big
50:56 I think I've already guessed
50:58 What about you? Do you have an idea?
51:00 This time, it's starting to take shape
51:03 And here's the very last clue
51:05 So, did you guess this time?
51:07 Let's see if you've found the answer
51:09 This animal is an elephant
51:12 You weren't wrong, were you?
51:15 No? Well done! Bye!
51:17 Bye!
51:18 So the prince made the evil dragon run away
51:34 Then he smiled tenderly at the pretty princess
51:37 As the prince was handsome, intelligent and brave
51:40 Now that the dragon was gone, he had nothing to fear
51:44 And so they lived happily ever after and had lots of children
51:47 It's over
51:49 Yes, it wasn't bad at all
51:51 In any case, it was better than the other silly stories we read
51:55 Don't you think?
51:56 Yes, this one's better than the others
51:59 But it's still a bit the same
52:01 What? This one wasn't the same, it was great
52:04 There was a huge angry dragon and a very pretty princess
52:07 Yes, alright, that's true, I like that kind of story
52:10 But you know what I'd like? For something different to happen
52:14 Wait, if it's a problem for you, we'll solve it
52:17 You'll tell me the things you like and the things you don't like
52:19 We never know if we can make a list of them
52:21 It might help us find a better story
52:24 Right, action! You like it when there's action
52:27 That's true, it's cool but there should be more
52:30 And maybe the princess should take part in it
52:33 Ok, your idea's funny
52:34 The princess would be more interesting
52:36 And that huge dragon, did you like the dragon?
52:38 Yes, we need to keep the dragon
52:40 But maybe less mean
52:42 Yes, that's the kind of story we need
52:44 What's the matter, miss? Can I do something for you?
52:58 Yes, Dad, we'd like to find books that are different from the ones we have
53:01 But you already have loads of books, don't you?
53:03 That's true, we have lots of them but they're all the same
53:06 I don't understand
53:08 You have books about animals, books about history, books about lots of other things
53:12 Yes, I know but the history books are all the same
53:15 Let me think. Go and look at one of your books about animals
53:19 We like them but we prefer the history books with action and monsters and dragons and princesses
53:24 where there's loads of things going on
53:26 I see what you mean. There's nothing like a good novel
53:30 I love that too. I like it when there's a huge problem
53:33 and the heroes have to solve it by facing great dangers
53:36 and at the very last minute, they save the situation
53:39 Oh, Mimi and I think it's funnier when the bad guys aren't as bad as that and the heroes make mistakes
53:45 It annoys us that they always live happily ever after. We'd rather everything wasn't so perfect
53:50 You're right, girls. I'd like to read stories like that too, if I could find any
53:55 We read lots of interesting things but there's nothing about them that makes them fascinating
54:00 There aren't any more fabulous books like there used to be
54:03 That's a shame
54:05 So, can we find any anywhere?
54:09 No, I don't think so
54:11 I'd like to know why people always, always like the same things
54:15 Well done! That's a really good question
54:18 Lots of people like the same things because they don't have the spirit of adventure
54:21 But since you like it when things change, why don't you write a story yourself?
54:25 But we can hardly read
54:27 That's true
54:28 But that's not a problem, girls. You'll do just fine
54:32 Besides, when you can't find what you want, all you can do is make it yourself, right?
54:38 That sounds difficult to me
54:39 Mimi, don't you think it's a great idea?
54:42 We can write whatever we want, we can make up the characters we want and the actions we want
54:47 Daddy, you're really brilliant!
54:49 Thank you. Sometimes it's better to do things yourself
54:51 You should try it. I'm sure you'd make great...
54:57 But...
54:58 We never get bored with those two
55:03 So, what kind of story do you want to write?
55:07 I don't care as long as it's different from the others
55:10 Ok, let's leave the prince alone then
55:13 Yes, that's not a bad idea. Here, take a pen
55:16 You write the words and I'll draw. Don't forget to mention the dragon
55:20 Ok, I'll think about it
55:22 And you know, Daddy's gonna be happy with us
55:25 As long as I can draw properly
55:28 It's supposed to be a dragon
55:31 Oh, I messed up
55:32 Wait, let me try
55:34 Oh, Kitty, you've got two left hands
55:37 Don't tell my right hand, it'll get mad
55:40 That means you're clumsy
55:43 Ok, so what does it look like?
55:45 Well, it doesn't look right. Our dragon looks mean
55:47 Maybe he's a little hungry
55:49 No, in that case, he'd make that face
55:53 A big fat dragon!
55:55 Ok, so how do we start?
56:00 Why not with "Once upon a time"?
56:02 But all stories start like that
56:05 I thought we were supposed to do something different
56:07 Yes, I know but I like that sentence
56:09 Ok, we'll change it. Maybe we could start like this
56:13 The two princesses, Mimi and Kitty, shared an apple with their neighbour, the dragon
56:17 One day, the dragon was very hungry
56:21 But the apples had disappeared and Princess Kitty said Mimi had eaten them
56:24 She couldn't have eaten all the apples
56:26 But you don't know my sister, Mr Dragon
56:29 You must have hidden the apples somewhere
56:31 It's impossible that your sister ate them all. They're my apples
56:35 It's very sad, Mr Dragon is hungry
56:37 Yes, that's true but he's also very angry
56:41 He asked for more apples and chased the princesses away
56:44 He's not very nice, let's say
56:46 It's normal, I ate his apples
56:48 Yes, that's true but it's not a reason to be so hateful
56:52 What's going to happen next?
56:54 So he chased the princesses away
56:59 And yet Mimi didn't stop asking him for forgiveness
57:01 Dad and Mum will love this story
57:04 Don't you think it's oddly quiet, D?
57:11 I wonder what the girls are doing
57:13 They're writing a story for us
57:16 They're writing a story?
57:17 Yes
57:18 They're making one together
57:20 Well, that's promising
57:22 That's right, they want their story to be out of the ordinary
57:25 I'm sure it'll be special
57:27 Mum, we're done!
57:29 Dad, it's finished!
57:31 Look Mum, our story's finished
57:34 You did that all by yourself?
57:37 That's fantastic!
57:40 Well done! Mum's going to read your story to us, ok?
57:43 You know Mum, we're very proud of our book
57:45 We wrote and drew everything ourselves without anyone's help
57:49 Fantastic! I can't wait to see what it'll be like
57:52 Once upon a time, there were 2 princesses who lived in a magical kingdom
57:55 We liked it, it was once upon a time, so we left it
57:58 Oh no!
58:01 The dragon's furious
58:02 I'm going to bathe you in it until I've got my apples
58:05 He must be very hungry
58:06 Yes, keep reading, it's even funnier then
58:09 But we're telling you there aren't any apples left, says Kitty
58:12 "Stop bathing me in sugar!" cried Mimmy
58:15 The princesses were looking for a prince but they never found one when they needed one
58:20 That's true, except for Dad of course
58:23 Thank you
58:24 So Kitty started to tickle the dragon's belly
58:27 And she tickled him, and she tickled him so much that he was whistling and screaming "Where are my apples?"
58:32 And then he fell on Kitty who was all wet
58:35 But Mimmy went to his rescue and the 3 of them lived happily ever after
58:38 Except that Kitty's moustache was frozen
58:41 And Mimmy didn't feel very well
58:42 Well kids, you wanted a different story, this one's really out of the ordinary
58:47 I'm very proud of my little princesses
58:49 It's very successful
58:51 Thank you Dad, you've got a great idea
58:53 Without you, we'd never have written a story
58:55 It makes us want to write a lot more
58:58 Oh Kitty, help! The dragon's bathing me
59:03 Don't worry, Mimmy, I'll save you
59:06 I'd like you to help me one day too
59:10 Here, take this and this and this and this too, you old dragon who's bathing my sister
59:16 And we'll continue with another little game
59:23 This one's called Animal Animal
59:25 What's the animal that hides in the cube?
59:28 Are you ready, friends?
59:30 Yeah? Then let's start
59:32 What's that? I think it's rather strange, don't you?
59:37 We need another clue
59:39 What's that?
59:41 Oh, it's a black and white animal
59:45 It could very well be a panda
59:48 That's it, I think I've found it
59:53 It's not a panda, it's got palmy feet
