Welcome to "Elmo's World."

Oh, guess what Elmo is wondering about today.

Wait for it.

[giggling] Wait for it!

[laughing] Oh, whoa!

Crafts!

Oh, that means really cool things you can make with stuff around the house.

Oh, a birdfeeder, yeah!

Boy, Elmo loves crafts and wants to find out more about them.

Hey, let's ask Elmo's friend, Smartie!

Let's call her together.

Oh, Smartie!

[bright chime] Smartie: Hello there.

Elmo: Um, Smartie, is that you?

Smartie: [laughs] It's me all right.

I'm wearing a mask that I made out of a paper plate.

Elmo: Oh, well, that's perfect, Smartie, because today, Elmo wants to learn all about crafts.

Smartie: Well, what do we do to learn something new?

all: We look it up!

Smartie: Looking up info on crafts.

Here we go.

♪ ♪ You could turn rocks from the yard into animals like owls.

You can make dolls out of pipe cleaners or you can fold up paper and make things like a flower.

♪ ♪ Elmo: Wow, that's so cool!

Smartie: Wait till I show you what my older brother, Flip, made out of popsicle sticks.

Elmo: Whoa, an airplane!

Smartie: Happy crafting, Elmo.

See you.

Elmo: Oh, thank you, Smartie.

Bye-bye!

Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.

Oh, let's play a game together.

[chuckles] Yeah.

Come on, come on.

[chuckles] ♪ ♪ Oh, let's try and figure out which things from the kitchen we can use to make crafts.

Are you ready?

Let's play!

child: Cardboard tubes!

Elmo: Think we can use that?

child: Sure!

child: Let's use that ball of string.

Yeah, string will be great.

Elmo: What about a kitty cat?

child: [chuckles] No way!

child: Use that empty plastic jar too!

Elmo: Okay, so we have cardboard tubes, string, and an empty plastic jar.

Let's find out what crafts we can make by putting those together.

Oh, a horse!

Giddyap, horsey!

Wow!

Boy, making crafts is craft-astic!

[laughs] And that makes Elmo wonder even more.

Oh, what kind of crafts does Mr. Noodle like to make?

Oh, let's ask him.

Hey, Mr. Noodle!

Oh, hi there, Mr. Noodle.

Mr. Noodle, Elmo was wondering.

Does Mr. Noodle make crafts?

You do?

Oh, show us children: Yeah, show us!

child: A train.

He's making a choo-choo train.

Elmo: What is Mr. Noodle going to use to make the train?

Ah, shoeboxes covered in construction paper, some string, a paper towel tube, and a crayon.

child: You're going to draw the wheels first.

Not on us, Mr. Noodle, on the train boxes.

Elmo: Silly.

Oh, what's he doing?

Oh, Mr. Noodle is drawing the wheels on the box.

Cool.

Very nice.

What's Mr. Noodle going to do next?

child: He's making the engine.

child: He's going to put the boxes together with string.

Uh-oh, he's all tangled.

Elmo: Uh-oh.

Try again, Mr. Noodle.

Yay, Mr. Noodle did it!

child: He made a train.

Elmo: Thank you for showing us how to make crafts, Mr. Noodle.

Bye-bye!

It makes him want to dance.
