- Whoa.

Wow.

Man, someday I'd love to host my own show.

Oh, I can imagine the set, working with my friends, and there'll be lots of laughter, and songs and so much more.

Oh, wow.

You know, we all start somewhere.

(upbeat music) ♪ Wimee creates all the day through ♪ ♪ And you can do it too ♪ Think of words and of rhymes ♪ And make wimages please do (woman vocalizes) - For the opening song, share with us something a baby does.

What does a baby do?

I'll take the first one.

♪ One little, two little, three little baby ♪ ♪ Four little, five little, six little baby ♪ ♪ Seven little, eight little, nine little baby ♪ ♪ 10 little babies sleeping (Wimee laughs) Hey Brody, got an idea?

What is something that a baby does?

- Do cry.

- Oh, they sure do.

♪ One little, two little, three little baby ♪ ♪ Four little, five little, six little baby ♪ ♪ Seven little, eight little, nine little baby ♪ ♪ 10 little babies crying (babies crying) (Wimee crying) I sometimes cry too.

(Wimee laughs) Hey, let's see.

Michael, got an idea?

Make people smile.

I'll do that one and let's go to Michael too.

I'll do two in a row.

So Michael, what's another thing babies do.

- Hello Wimee.

Babies love to give hugs.

- Oh, got it.

Perfect, okay.

Okay.

So Siblee said make people smile.

- [Siblee] Yeah, that's what I said.

- Okay, good.

♪ One little, two little, three little babies ♪ ♪ Four little, five little, six little babies ♪ ♪ Seven little, eight little, nine little babies ♪ ♪ 10 little babies making people smile ♪ ♪ 10 little babies giving a hug ♪ ♪ 10 little babies sleeping (Wimee laughs) Man, so, so far babies, oh and they do eat.

I love it.

I was gonna list it all.

They eat, they sleep, they cry, they give hugs, they're huggable.

They poop.

(Wimee laughs) I had to go there.

(Wimee laughs) Oh, they crawl.

Okay, let's wrap it up with crawling.

♪ One little, two little, three little baby ♪ ♪ Four little, five little, six little baby ♪ ♪ Seven little, eight little, nine little babies ♪ ♪ 10 little babies crawling They grow up so fast.

They crawl, they walk, they run.

(Wimee exclaims) All right.

Let's see what Moby's gonna share with us today.

(upbeat music) - I was just reading about all the different names that animals have for babies.

For example, a baby cow is called a calf.

A baby cat is a kitten.

Dogs have puppies and pigs have piglets.

Baby sheep are lambs, and when I was a baby chicken, I was a chick.

Yeah, yeah.

Baby humans and baby goats are both called kids.

Really.

I'm not kidding.

(Moby laughs) That was for you Siblee.

(Moby laughs) (upbeat music) (Wimee laughs) - That's funny at the end, that for you Siblee.

- [Siblee] Thank you Moby.

(Wimee laughs) - So I don't know if you know this at home friends, Siblee's usually over there on the side, that's where his set is for when he performs and usually during the show, he's kind of reading or taking a nap or sometimes he plays checkers too with Moby in fact.

Okay, so let's see.

It's time for today's Three Sentence Story, Beginning, Middle, End.

And the three words come from you.

So let's read a story.

Share with us a person, place or thing.

We love nouns.

In the first sentence I set the scene, in the second sentence, there is a problem, (Wimee exclaims) but in the third sentence, there comes a solution.

I'm gonna go to Jim for the first word to start things off.

Horse.

Let's see what Jim thinks.

Jim, how do you feel about horse?

Is that, you're cool with that?

- I think horse is a good one to go with.

I think Siblee knows what he's doing.

- Okay, lets do it.

Okay, so horse, okay, ready?

Here we go.

Horse, okay.

Once upon a time, a lone horse galloped up the mountain side.

Whoa, can you picture that in your brain?

A horse galloping, (Wimee vocalizes) up the mountain side.

All right, but no, here comes the problem.

Oh man.

Friends, what word might inspire today's problem in our story?

So a horse going up a mountain side, guitar.

Jim, you know Jim agreed on the horse, I bet he agrees with the guitar, but wait a minute, the problem is the guitar.

Oh no.

Okay, I got it, I got it.

How do you feel?

- Here's the thing, I've never really known a guitar to be a problem.

I love guitars, unless maybe you break a string.

That could be the problem.

Is that the guitar, just trying to think, maybe the horse, the horse somehow breaks the string.

Maybe the horse is playing with the guitar, and because he has a big hoof.

- Oh.

- It breaks the string.

- I think you're onto something.

What I was, let me brush this by you.

- All right.

- I was thinking that someone was playing the electric guitar so loud that it waked up all the babies around town.

- I like that too.

- But- - Where does the horse fit into that though?

- It's got I guess nothing to do with the horse.

- Maybe the horse is who's playing the guitar and waking up the babies.

(Wimee gasps) - Okay, and the string breaks.

So there's two problems.

- And the string breaks so, - Okay.

- when the (exclaims) of the string breaking, that's what wakes the babies up.

- Okay.

Okay.

- Wait 'cause now, all right I got this.

So the horse was playing a lullaby for the babies, - Yeah.

- so they were being lulled to sleep until the horse broke the string and the (exclaims) that woke the babies up.

- Got it, got it.

Okay.

Here we go.

From the top.

Once upon a time a horse was galloping up the mountainside.

He instantly began to play the guitar to, he instantly began to play lullabies on guitar, when suddenly the string broke and woke up all the babies on the mountain.

I think, Jim I gotta work on revising that a little bit, but I think we got there.

Now the solution.

How do we solve this problem?

The babies need to go back to sleep, and the guitar's broken and bugs are the solution.

(Wimee laughs) I love it.

Joe, thanks for the word bugs.

Okay, so the bugs are gonna, so here we go.

Once upon a time, a lone horse galloped up the mountain side to play guitar lullabies to all the babies.

At the end of the song suddenly the guitar string broke and all the babies woke up.

Just then the bugs on the trees started to play a gentle melody of cricket, a cricket sonnet.

Is that a cricket sonnet, the crickets lulled, the bugs, including the crickets lulled the babies back to sleep.

Oh, but who fixed the string?

We'll have to, I'm gonna revise that a little bit more later to see who, how we fixed the string.

Maybe there's a particular bug.

Friends if you have an idea, which bug could help fix the string.

We had two problems in the story today.

Friends let's go to Brody in the Grandville Wimage Lab to see what he's got going for today's Wimage.

Hey Brody.

- HI Wimee, hi friends.

I have a little Baby Wimee back there.

(Wimee laughs) - [Wimee] I was just looking at that when you said that.

Oh, should we speak quieter so we don't wake up Baby Wimee?

- Maybe.

- Okay, good, good, good, great.

So, what have you got Brody for today's Wimage?

- So I have the horse and the mountain, but the horse is playing the guitar, and the string broke, and Wimee is holding the baby but... - [Wimee] Yeah.

- The noise of the guitar string broke and it woke up- - [Wimee] Yeah.

- The little baby, but the bugs helped it out.

- Man, I love it, it's so cool.

Okay, so let's add some more things.

Friends if you have ideas, let us know.

I was wondering in the story, I was thinking about another bug to help fix the guitar maybe an ant?

- Okay.

Okay.

- Do ants know how to fix guitar strings?

I think so, 'cause they're really strong.

They can carry so much, like a hundred times their body weight.

I think I have to research that exactly.

(Wimee gasps) Oh look at that ant right there, on the guitar hoping to fix it.

(Wimee laughs) That's fun.

Okay, so let's add, let's see.

Let's add one more thing and then we're going to come back to you later to see what three things you change.

A baby bottle, I think, I saw a comment that said a baby bottle.

So how about this?

You can add the baby bottle, and then we'll look for, in addition to the baby bottle, three other changes, whether it's something added or colors or maybe something that's bigger or smaller.

(Wimee laughs) - Okay.

- Thanks Brody.

I'll make sure we stay quiet throughout the show.

I think, yeah, 'cause I think Baby Wimee might still, no I think actually, well Brody you let us know if we're too loud, okay?

Okay, friends, it is time to go to Ms. Stephanie for today's Language Explores to find out how to say today's words in sign language, American Sign Language.

Hi Ms. Stephanie.

- Hello Wimee, hi friends.

It's good to be here with you today.

So I know that today's theme is babies, can you guess how we might say babies in American Sign Language?

- Can we guess?

Is it with our eyes crying?

(Wimee sobs) - That's a great guess.

No, you take your arms like this, like you're holding the baby and rocking it.

- Oh, that's how Brody had me holding the baby in the Wimage.

- Exactly, baby.

All right.

- Baby.

- So then the first word in our story was horse, and this is how you say horse.

You take your hand, put your fingers like this, put it up to your head, horse, horse.

- Nice.

- Yeah.

- Nice, Brody is doing a great job.

Look at Brody doing the- - Lets see.

Let's bring him in.

- Yeah, look at.

- Exactly.

Horse.

- Are we too loud Brody?

Is it okay?

Okay.

Okay, and then guitar.

- I'm gonna guess, Brody guess, how might we say guitar in American Sign Language?

I want you to guess.

- This?

- Yes.

(Wimee chuckles) This.

- Perfect.

- So Jim's probably super great at it.

Let's see.

- Let's ask him, and let's ask Jim if he knew that.

Did you know that Jim?

- I didn't know that, but I love how much it makes sense.

both baby and guitar.

They just both make sense, right?

- Yeah.

- Exactly.

- Perfect.

- Yeah.

- Guitar.

All right.

Thank you, and lastly was bugs, and bugs you, again, take your fingers.

Kind of strange that we had horses and bug or insect, your same fingers, you put it on your nose, and you do this.

(Wimee laughs) - [Wimee] I love that.

- Bug or insect.

- Oh, that's so cool to see on the side.

(Ms. Stephanie laughs) Yeah.

- Let's see.

Brody how about you?

(both laugh) Excellent job men.

- That so fun.

- Man, the horse, the baby, the bugs, we should all play guitar and that's a good stuff 'cause the ant's gonna fix the guitar so we can keep playing.

Yeah.

Oh, some babies use ASL to speak.

You're right Siblee.

- That's true.

- [Siblee] Yeah, that's what I thought.

They can communicate.

It's amazing.

- It is amazing.

- That's true.

Wimee when we adopted our son, and that's what we taught him is sign language as well.

So he had a few words that he would speak with his mouth, but he would also use American Sign Language to communicate.

It was great.

- I love it.

- Yes, - That's so cool.

Ms. Stephanie, thank you so much for today's words in American Sign Language.

- You're welcome, see you later.

- Let's see what Siblee.

Siblee, it's time for your joke, okay?

- [Siblee] Yeah, I know, I recorded it earlier, I'm ready.

- Okay, here it is.

(children cheer) - How do you keep a baby astronaut from crying?

- [Wimee] I don't know.

- You rock it.

(Siblee exclaims) (Siblee laughs) (children cheer) (Wimee laughs) - That's funny.

Friends, it's time for Jim Time.

(upbeat music) Hi Jim.

(Jim Shushes) - Quiet.

That intro was so loud it woke the baby up, - Oh no, oh no.

- I think I got the baby back to sleep.

(Jim shushes) - Okay.

- Okay.

Okay.

So I was thinking- - You've been part of the show so much today, I got distracted.

- I think we've already had Jim Time.

(Jim laughs) - I know, okay, but now it's officially Jim Time.

- Okay.

So I have a quiet song that we can sing while the baby's sleeping, it's called "The Baby Is Sleeping".

So we're gonna put our finger to our lips like this, - Oh.

- and go, (shushes) - Okay.

(Wimee shushes) - And then we're gonna sing like this.

♪ The baby is sleeping (Jim shushes) ♪ The baby is sleeping (Jim shushes) ♪ The baby is sleeping (Jim shushes) ♪ The baby is sleeping (Jim shushes) Now here's where the fun comes.

- Are you sure that was, wow.

- Yeah, - I don't know what to say Jim.

- I don't either, it's probably better left on set.

- But the baby's sleeping?

- Baby's sleeping, everything's great.

- Okay, thanks Jim, I'll keep being quiet.

We'll see you later in the show.

Hopefully Baby Wimee is still sleeping too.

(Wimee sighs) Wow, friends.

Okay, Siblee, now it's your time.

- [Siblee] Yeah, don't forget Jim Time.

- Okay.

(Wimee laughs) Wait a minute, oh no!

Oh, I think the baby is in charge.

- [Siblee] Yeah, you already did that, right?

I didn't catch it either.

- Yeah, we both mixed that.

Oh man.

I was so concerned about the baby, I think I've just got all disheveled.

Okay.

So the joke, the Siblee, it's time for, it's time to hang out with everybody and play something fun.

It's time for Guess The Rhyme.

(lighthearted music) This has been a fun, goofy episode I tell ya.

Okay.

We gotta just think of babies, you guys decide if you wanna stay focused to babies or not, but I'll take the first rhyme.

I'll go with sleep.

So anyone raise your hand if you've got the rhyme for sleep.

Yeah Jim.

- Sheep.

- Yeah, that was it.

You count sheep and it helps you sleep.

Okay Michael, you wanna, you pick a word and then any one of us we'll try to guess to your rhyme.

- Diapers.

- Oh, diaper.

- That's gonna be a tough one to rhyme with.

- Oh Brody's got it.

Yes.

- Swiper.

- Oh.

(Michael gasps) - I like it.

- Swiper.

- Yes.

Some babies do swipe things.

(all laugh) - It reminds me of Dora, and the part of that show.

- Right?

- Okay, okay.

Jim, you got a word?

- How about, I think, I keep thinking words that'll be tough to find a rhyme.

What about bottle?

- Bottle.

- Bottle.

- I got one.

I got one, I got one.

- All right.

- Throttle.

(both gasp) - Good.

But with the car you- - Yeah.

- That's a part of a car, right?

Throttle.

- Yeah, nice one.

- Yeah, did you have one too Brody?

- Yeah.

- What was yours?

- Let's do cheeks.

- Oh, cheeks.

(Michael exclaims) - Cheeks.

- Cheeks.

- Cheeks.

- Yeah Jim.

- Weeks?

- What about beaks?

- Beaks.

- Or weeks, that works too.

- Yeah.

- Beaks, weeks.

- I said leaks.

- Beaks.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, there's some leaks under the faucet.

It takes weeks to fix it.

- I like that too.

- You got it.

It was weeks.

- Weeks.

(Wimee laughs) Nice.

- All right, last one.

Who wants to take the last one?

- How about bonnet?

- Bonnet?

(Wimee laughs) - Bonnet.

♪ My bonnet lies over the ocean ♪ Bonnet - Bonnet.

- Brody.

- Wallet.

(Wimee laughs) - I'll go with it.

- Your wallet.

(rings) A bonnet.

(all laugh) That's fun.

Man, this is so fun guys.

I love playing this game, it was Guess The Rhyme.

Thanks friends.

Hey Brody, let's go see right now what you've got for has anything changed?

What changed?

One, two or three things?

Lets see, okay, friends.

Let's see.

Oh, (laughs) I see one of them.

I see two of them.

Anyone at home see 'em?

What changed?

I'm still looking for the third thing.

I will say one that I found, I see the baby has got a bottle.

- That was always there.

- [Wimee] Oh it was there?

Oh no.

- Yeah.

- [Wimee] I don't see one thing that has changed.

The colors?

Michael, do you see any changes?

We've gotta find three changes.

What do you notice?

- The ninja again.

- Oh yeah, there's one, the ninja.

(both laugh) - That ninja is everywhere.

- I'm wondering if, yeah, Brody does love those ninjas silly.

(Michael exclaims) (Michael laughs) I think some colors must've changed in, right?

Did any colors change Michael or Brody?

- No.

- No?

Oh man- - Is there another, did you add another bug?

- No, but there is something with the bugs.

- [Wimee] I see the ninja.

The different types of bugs?

- Yeah, one of them is different.

- [Wimee] Okay.

The lady bug is new.

- Yeah.

- [Wimee] Oh, ladybug.

Okay, ninja and a lady bug and, man this is tricky Brody.

Got one more there to find.

Anybody at home see- - Something next to the mountain.

- [Wimee] Next to the mountain.

The horse?

- Yeah.

- [Wimee] The horse changed?

- Yep.

- [Wimee] Oh nice.

- You wanna see the old horse?

- [Wimee] Yeah.

What was the old horse?

- Okay.

- Oh cool, this is a great idea, you can show us what changed.

- It used to be that.

- Oh man, that was, that's cool.

That's subtle.

I love it Brody.

Man, you got it, you got it.

The ninja, the horse and the bug changed.

Good stuff.

We should wrap up today's show with, Find It Fast.

(upbeat music) All right friends, we gotta find something that starts with B, like baby.

Find something with a belly button, like a baby, and find something you can hug, like a baby.

What starts with B?

Baby, beans, Bob.

Anybody got a Bob, a Bob or something?

Let's see Brody, oh wait a minute, (Wimee laugh) I think I might know what you saying.

Brody anything that starts with B?

- It's myself.

(Wimee laughs) I start with B.

- Do you have a belly button?

- I can hug and I have a belly button.

(Wimee laughs) - Perfect.

(Wimee exclaims) All three.

(Wimee laughs) Jim, what'd you got?

- Like Brody, I've also got the trifecta.

I've got a baby that has a belly button that you can hug.

(Wimee laughs) - I love it, I love it.

Let's see what else start with B. Michael, what you got?

- So I've got this book.

- Oh, starts with B.

- And I love books so I hug my books, (Wimee laughs) and I also hug little Wimee.

(Wimee exclaims) - Lots of hugs.

Hugs all around.

Does that little Baby Wimee have a belly button?

Bursch, I love it.

That starts with B.

And maybe something with a belly button.

I love it.

Lets see.

What else has a belly button?

Animals?

Teddy bears?

Animals?

Something you can hug.

Oh man, (speaks softly) - Well Baby Wimee which starts with B, I can hug him.

(Wimee laughs) - I think maybe I gotta have, you know what?

I got lots of buttons.

That's true, I got all kinds of buttons.

So I got a belly button.

What you got Steph?

- A blue pen and a pillow which I can hug.

- Oh.

- And I have a belly button.

(Wimee laughs) - Belly buttons are fascinating.

They're amazing.

Well friends, it's been such a fun show.

Oh, a black cat, nice.

That starts with B, and something you can hug, and I don't know, do cats have belly buttons?

I gotta do some research on animals.

I'm not sure, I've never really thought about it.

Interesting.

I love it, I love learning new things, wondering new things, thinking about possibilities.

Well friends, let's get ready to dance.

It's time for the dance party.

Thanks friends, it's been another fun great episode.

(Wimee laughs) Baby Wimee's dancing.
