Hi and welcome to Kids Jam.

I'm Kira Willey, and I'm so happy you're here.

You know, we can all make music in lots of different ways.

We can use our voices, we can clap our hands, we can tap our feet.

We could play an instrument.

At kids jam, we are all about making music.

And today we get to make music with Tim Kubart and the Space Cadets.

They're going to sing songs about our families, about growing up, and they'll get us singing along and clapping our hands too.

A little later, we'll head to the music room with some friends to create some of our own music and do some movement and mindfulness, too.

But right now, get ready to jam with Tim Kubart and the Space Cadets.

Thanks, Kira.

One, two, let's go!

Hi there.

So happy to see you.

My name is Tim.

This is Emily.

- Everybody say "Hi, Emily."

- Hi.

And Emily is playing the... Yeah, the keyboards, the piano, the piano or the keyboards.

And then to my left, your right, this is my good friend Matt.

This is everybody.

Say hi, Matt.

Hi, Matt.

Matt is playing the guitar.

I'm playing the guitar.

And we're going to be making music with you.

You can clap your hands, stomp your feet.

We like to make music all together.

We like to perform music and think about all different times we're performing.

Actually, this first song is about the first time that I ever performed, making music or doing a play.

My class put on a big play and I played a very important part in the play.

I was the tree in the play.

Actually, could you pretend to be a tree?

Can we take our arms, put them out to the side just like this?

Very nice.

And then when it's time, all you do is you shake them up, you get them loose like that.

And that's called the tree dance.

We'll let you know when that comes in.

But right now, can we clap our hands like this?

We'll go clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

Very nice.

Clap, clap, clap.

Keep that going.

Keep that going.

This song is called Second Grade Show.

It goes like this.

Here we go.

♪ Tonight's the night ♪ I'm getting ready to make my big debut ♪ I'm getting nervous for the curtain ♪ When it opens, what will I do?

♪ My little brother shows my father ♪ On the camera how to hit record ♪ I hope there's time to get my costume ♪ Some love on the ironing board ♪ Because I got to look good.

♪ In my brown and green Get ready ♪ I got to stay real still, arms out, arms out ♪ Next time you see me, I'll be playing a tree Shake 'em up ♪ My second grade show ♪ My family's coming to see ♪ Which way the wind blows ♪ And if you're trying to find me ♪ Where did you go?

♪ Well, I'll be shaking the leaves ♪ Up in the second grade.

Clap your hands.

Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

Oh, nice, Emily.

You got it.

Making music.

♪ Now we've been practicing for weeks ♪ How I'll be swaying in the breeze ♪ I don't have any lines ♪ I got a good face to test ♪ Hey, this scene is important ♪ And when they dim the lights ♪ When the curtain dies ♪ Be the first one there before your very eyes ♪ Hmm, that is some beautiful foliage ♪ I got to look so good in my brown and green Get ready.

♪ I got to stay real still Arms out, arms out.

♪ Next time you see me, I'll be playing a tree Shake them up.

♪ My family's coming to see ♪ Which way the wind blows ♪ And if you're trying to find me ♪ Where did you go?

♪ I'll be shaking my leaves Nice.

♪ In the second grade ♪ Jackie's got a line and Katie's got a line ♪ Desmond's got a line ♪ And Penny's got a line ♪ Hugo's got a line ♪ But I got a line for you My friends, one more time.

Can we all put our arms out to the side?

Very nice.

Like we are trees and can we all, and I mean everyone watching, can we make the sound of a tree as the wind rustles our leaves?

Whooshhh.

That's so nice.

That's so peaceful.

Let's hear it again.

Whooshhh.

Good job.

Good job.

One more time.

Whooshhh.

That's the way trees make music.

Oh, you know what?

Can we do the tree dance one more time with our arms out?

But do you think maybe we could, if you want to, if there's space, if that's what you want to do in your heart, could you stand on up and maybe do some jumping with the tree dance?

Grown ups too, if you'd like, you can stand up and do the tree dance.

Good job.

Arms out, arms, arms out.

Tree dance with jumping.

♪ Because I'm playing a tree ♪ Everybody's coming to see ♪ And if you're trying to find me ♪ I'll be shaking my leaves because I'm playing a tree ♪ My family's coming to see ♪ And if you're looking for me ♪ I'll be shaking my leaves ♪ In the second grade Clap, clap, clap ♪ We really got it made ♪ Underneath a shade in the second grade ♪ In the second grade, everybody jump, let's go ♪ Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, ♪ Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do My trees.

Give yourselves a big round of applause.

Very nice.

Very nice.

My friends, if you're having a fun time, say, "Yeah."

Yeah!

If you're having a good time, say "Oh, yeah."

Oh, yeah.

If you want to hear another song, say, "More."

More.

If you want to hear another song, say, "More!"

More!

OK. We'll do another one.

Here we go.

My friends, we like to write songs all about different things.

You can write a song about anything that makes you happy or makes you sad or makes you scared or makes you excited.

This song is about something that makes me really excited and that's getting to play at the playground.

If you like playing at the playground, put one hand up high.

Nice.

If you like playing at the playground, put both hands up high.

Nice.

If you like playing at the playground, shake your body.

OK. My friends, there are all kinds of parts of the playground.

Hey.

Hey, Matt.

Do you have a part of the playground you like?

What do you like?

The tire swing.

Oh, the tire swing.

Oh, my goodness.

That's a good one.

That's good.

Emily, what part of the playground do you like?

- I like the slide.

- Oh, the slide.

I like how you did that with your hand, too.

Oh, you didn't have to say slide.

I know what she's talking about.

My friends, do you have a favorite part of the playground?

I'll let you know my favorite part.

It's the swings.

I love going on the swings.

They have those two ropes that come down.

Maybe we could pretend to be on a swing right now.

Can you take one hand?

Reach up high.

Grab hold to one of the ropes.

You got it.

Take the other hand.

Reach up high.

Grab hold to the other rope.

Nice.

Now swings.

They go forward and back.

Maybe could we do a little hop or move our bodies forward and back?

Here we go.

We'll go forward back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Forward, back.

Nice.

We'll let you know when that comes in.

We'll say something like swing dance.

But right now I think we could do some more hand clapping.

But we'll clap our hands way up high over our head.

So reach up high.

Maybe even on your tiptoes.

Good job.

Here we go.

We'll go... Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.

Keep that going.

Clap, clap.

I'm going to play guitar, too.

Here we go.

♪ When I got home from school, there was not much for me to do ♪ All my friends had plans today ♪ Mom's at work till past five, baby-sitter's hanging inside ♪ I'm solo, but that's OK because the sun is shining Grab hold to one rope, swing set, grab hold to the other ♪ Me to go flying Let's fly, jump.

♪ l'm in the back yard swinging ♪ I got my head back singing ♪ In the back yard swinging, hands up high ♪ You could easily mistake me for a spaceship, maybe ♪ Or an airplane soaring by, soaring by ♪ You can squint your eyes and make out ♪ Superhero flying over your town ♪ I wouldn't blame you ♪ It wouldn't be the first time ♪ Because the sun is shining Grab hold to one rope ♪ Swing set's inviting ♪ Need to go by and let's fly Here we go.

♪ I'm in the back yard swinging ♪ I got my head back singing.

♪ I'm in the back yard swinging, freeze ♪ And if I swing so high.

might just swing up to the sky.

Freeze another way.

♪ And I could join the clouds.

♪ And look down at my tiny house.

Can you freeze on one foot?

♪ When I'm in the air ♪ I might just think of living there Now like a superhero.

♪ Maybe never come back down Oh.

Can we pretend like we're asleep now?

Goodnight.

Good job.

Goodnight.

Up in the clouds.

Falling asleep.

Goodnight.

♪ The family I know Get ready.

Grab hold, let's go.

♪ Great jobs.

Welcome to the music room.

We are all about making music here at Kids Jam.

And you at home can make music with us, too.

Let's get ready with a few deep breaths.

Let's stand on up.

Can you stand up with us?

Take a long breath in.

Let it all the way out.

Let's see if we can balance on one foot, put one foot in front of you, lift it up and see if you can balance.

Take a breath in.

Put it down.

Beautiful job.

Let's try the other side.

See if you can put the other foot in front of you.

Lift it up in balance.

Yeah.

Can you breathe in?

And out.

And sit back down.

Now we're ready.

I have a question for you.

Have you ever heard a grown-up say, "Will you please pay attention?"

Have you guys ever heard a grown-up say that?

Yeah.

Yes, I know.

Paying attention can be really hard.

It's something we have to practise and a great way to practise it is with rhythm.

Let's try some different rhythms using the sounds we can make with our bodies.

You really have to pay attention.

Here we go.

I'm going to do a rhythm.

And you do it right back to me.

Ready?

You do it with us, too.

Here we go.

Very good.

Yeah.

Are you doing it with us?

All right, let's keep going.

Let me do that one again.

It was boop, boop, boop, boop.

Yes, you can say the boop.

I just made that part up.

That's good.

Does anyone else want to do a rhythm that we could all follow?

Yes, please.

- OK. - OK Oh, my goodness.

Let's try that.

You ready?

Is that what it was?

I don't think I got it right.

Did you try it?

Let's try it again.

- Go ahead again.

- OK. Oh.

Ready?

Yeah, that was tricky.

Does anyone else have one?

Yes.

Wow.

Ready?

Yes.

Very nice.

One more.

Oh, my goodness.

Beautiful.

That was great.

Amazing job playing these rhythms, my friends.

Now let's go back to the Kids Jam Studios for more songs.

We'll see you next time in the music room.

Bye.

If you're having a good time, say, "Oh, yeah."

Oh, yeah.

If you're having a good time, say, "Let's go."

Let's go If you want to hear another song, say, "More."

More.

If you want to hear another song, say, "More!"

More!

OK, we'll do it.

We'll do another song.

Sounds good.

On the count of three, can I see your biggest, highest, tallest jump that you have ever jumped?

Here we go.

One... Two... Three.

Let's jump.

Very nice.

Very nice.

Let's try it one more time.

As big as you can jump.

Here we go.

One... Two... Three.

Let's jump.

Very good.

Very good.

Oh, my friends.

There's part of this song where everybody needs to make a lot of noise.

So right now I'll count to three and you can clap your hands and go, "Woo!

Yay!"

Like that.

Here we go.

One, two, three.

Yay!

Woo!

We'll try it again.

One, two, three.

Wow!

Yay!

You know, we're going to need kind of a cue instead of counting - something that I say that then everybody knows to make a lot of noise.

This next song is about being in the kitchen, so maybe it could be a food.

A food.

And how about a food, maybe your favorite food or one that you like?

- Hey, Emily.

- Yeah?

What is your favorite food?

Or maybe one that you like?

I'd say apples.

Apples?

Oh, those are great.

Those are great.

Crunchy.

Crunchy.

Yeah.

Matty.

What's a favorite food?

One that you like?

Oh, gosh.

I was going to say apples.

You can say apples.

That's OK. - Also apples.

- I love that.

- I love it.

- Crunchy.

Believe it or not, apples, apples.

My favorite food, bananas.

I could eat them all day.

I could eat them all day.

My friends, Actually, how about the cue be apples and bananas?

- What do you think?

- Oh, I like that.

Oh, what is your favorite food or one that you like?

Nice.

Nice.

So when we say apples and bananas, you could also say one that you like as well.

So when I say apples and bananas or when I say apples and bananas, and then you say the one that you like, we can all make a lot of noise, so get ready already.

Apples and bananas.

Yay!

Apples and bananas.

Wow!

You know, they do, apples and bananas, they do deserve some cheering.

They do.

I think so too.

My friends, this song starts off with some jumping.

And don't forget, when I say apples and bananas... - Woo!

- ..you can make a lot of noise.

It's called Dancing in the Kitchen.

It goes like this.

One, two, let's go.

♪ Another cold and rainy Saturday ♪ I've been sitting on my couch all day ♪ And then I heard steps on the floor, ♪ Turned around to see what for ♪ There was Grandma Green ♪ And she took my hand and said to me ♪ Get on up, you don't know what you're missing ♪ Everyone, we're dancing in the kitchen ♪ Pots and pans, holding down the rhythm ♪ Get on up, move into position ♪ Everyone grooving is the mission ♪ Pots and pans, get set in the kitchen Apples and bananas ♪ So I planned out my next move ♪ Went to my sister's room ♪ Yesterday we had a fight but a kitchen dance party ♪ Could make things all right ♪ She'd been waiting to receive ♪ An invitation from me ♪ I knocked and said, "Get excited ♪ "You're my sister, of course you're invited" Get on up, you don't know what you're missing ♪ Everyone, we're dancing in the kitchen ♪ Pots and pans, holding down the rhythm ♪ Get on up, move into position ♪ Everyone, grooving is the mission ♪ Pots and pans, dancing in the kitchen Apples and bananas.

My friends, we have one more song.

All show long, we have been giving you some ideas of how to move your body, how to make music by clapping your hands, stomping your feet, singing along.

This next song, though, it's all about creativity and doing whatever you feel in your heart.

It's called Sunday Crafternoon, so if you feel like dancing, if you feel like clapping along, if you feel like hooting and hollering, or maybe find a family member to dance with, whatever you want to do, this song is for that because it's all about expressing yourself and what is in your heart, because that's what we want to hear and that's what we want to see.

Are you ready?

This song is called Sunday Crafternoon.

Grown ups, also, if you've been sitting down, this is the time.

Here we go.

We're so happy to be here.
