♪ Two basketballs for you and me.

♪ ♪ Two basketballs for you and me.

♪ ♪ Two basketballs for you and me, ♪ ♪ cause two basketballs are better than one.

Might be kind of tricky with two?

You'd be like, which one do I get?

- Ba doom, ba doom, boom.

- Oh man, okay.

My first example, already (laughs) sometimes one's better than two.

But it's a good backup, backup, okay.

Let's go see what Moby's got to.

I'm pushing all my stuff off the table.

Let's go see what Moby's got to say today.

(upbeat fun music) - [Moby] I was thinking about the number two.

Yeah, lots of things come in twos.

Two eyes.

Two ears.

Two feet.

Yeah, I have two wings.

Yeah.

We also call things that come in twos a pair.

You can have a pair of gloves.

A pair of socks.

A pair of shoes.

I don't understand a pair of pants.

I mean, I guess it's because there are two legs but it's still only one thing.

Hmm, Yeah.

Cause shirts have two arms but we don't call them a pair of shirts.

Hmm, I'm gonna do some more research on that one.

(upbeat fun music) - [Wimee] Okay, okay.

Friends, it's time for today's - [Wimee] ♪ 1, 2, 3 sentence story.

♪ - [Wimee] That's right friends.

Let's write a story together.

In the first sentence we'll set the scene.

In the second sentence there is a problem!

(crying) But, good news because in the third sentence there is a solution.

Ah!

Friends, let's go to Brody for the very first word of the story.

He will inspire you the first sentence.

Any word at all Brody.

What do you think?

- What about a pear?

- A pear.

(laughs) Now are you talking the fruit?

Right, first, you kind of got me for a minute.

I first thought of pair like two but then suddenly I realized wait a minute.

A pear.

Okay, I got it I got it.

I'm on it.

Thanks Brody.

A pear.

Okay.

Oh.

A pair of pears.

Oh, this is just getting more fun by the minute.

Okay, here we go.

First sentence.

I sat down to make lunch and I had a pair of pears sitting next to me on the table.

Yeah, okay that's cool.

Gonna work on making some lunch, and I got a pair of pears, and oh, I wonder if I wanna make fruit salad.

But oh no!

There's a a problem.

The wimage board is here.

Oh, wimage board.

You got a pair of wimees.

(laughs) Okay, we need a pair of pears.

So two pairs on the table.

Friends, I need someone at home here watching.

Share with us another word, a person place or thing.

A noun and let's see that word will inspire the problem.

Carrot.

(laughs) Okay, got it.

Carrot is our second word.

Here we go from the top.

I sat down at the table, ready to make lunch, and I had a pair of pears.

I was hoping to make a salad.

I was gonna say the carrot.

I had no carrots.

But the carrot I'm thinking instead, wimage board you inspired me.

The carrot is actually going to... push the pears off the table.

That's what it is.

(laughs) Watch this.

From the oh no, look at that, poof!

Okay, from from the top here's the story.

I was ready to make lunch and I had a pair of pears on the table.

Out of nowhere a carrot came by and pushed that pear.

Ooh Ooh, wimage board, can we duplicate the pear?

I wanna have two pears on the ground and that carrot.

There it is.

Oh man, oh man!

Look at that.

That sneaky carrot pushed those pears right off on the ground.

Friends, how do we make the fruit salad?

I guess it's a pear salad for now.

How do we fix the problem, with the pears on the ground, trying to make a fruit salad umbrella?

Okay, umbrella.

Oh I got it, I got it!

(laughs) Perfect, thanks for that idea.

Okay.

I was sitting down at the table ready to make some lunch and I had two pears on the table.

Out of nowhere, a sneaky carrot came by and pushed those pears right off the table.

I immediately picked up an umbrella, scooped up the.

I just put my hand in my mouth, I got so excited.

I scooped up those pears and put them right back up on the table to continue making lunch.

(laughs) Problem solved.

(laughs) Friends at home share with us more ideas for this story.

Wimage board is gonna keep working.

Oh, a pig!

Wimage board, there's going to be a pig in the story too and a banana.

Oh man, I love this!

So many good ideas coming in.

A playground!

Okay wimage board, you got all this?

Playground, uh, banana and you keep working on it.

We'll check back with you later in the show to see what you got for that deluxe wimage of today's story.

- Ah ha, that sound, I was still thinking about that from the start of the show.

(laughs) All right, what?

I know, I know, don't get me started.

What can we learn from you today in Swahili?

- [Brad] (laughs) So the word two is mbili.

It's time for today's Math Moment brought to us today by our friend Carson.

(upbeat electronic music) - Hi Wimee, Hi Friends, I'm Carson.

Today, we're having fun with the number two.

So, we're going to play a game called finding pairs.

I have these pairs from all across my house.

(pleasant guitar music) - [Carson] Now, it's your turn.

What pairs can you find all around your house?

(upbeat electronic music) - Ha ha that was so cool.

I saw a pair of boots.

What friend?

What did you see?

A pair of boots.

I saw a pair of socks, gloves, pants.

That one I'm still wondering about, but I think Mobi's kind of onto something there with the two legs.

A pair of glasses and more.

So friends, what pairs can you find?

As you look around.

Friends, we love jokes!

It's time for laughing with Siblee.

(kids cheering) - Why can't a bike stand up on its own?

- Hmm, um, I don't know.

- Because it's too tired.

(laughs) (kids cheering) - Ha ha, pair of wheels.

Yeah, two tires, ha.

Friends, I invite you to take a deep breath right now.

Breathe in.

(breathes in) Hold it.

1 2 3 4 - And let it loose.

(breathes out) Ha ha, friends, we love books!

Miss.

Joanna from Los Angeles Public Libraries here for today's Check Out This Book.

(upbeat electronic music) Welcome back.

- Thank you.

I am so happy to share this book, Twogether by Susan Gal.

- I love that title.

- The first reason why I love this book is because it takes place on the beach.

And I think a story about a warm sunny day is a good thing to be reminded of or to dream about in the second month of the year when we're still in winter.

Another reason why I like this book is because it's about playing.

Right here, this is a shrew.

And when the shrew gets to the beach he's looking for someone to play with.

Could he convince elephant who is happy to surf, sail, and sing by herself?

And what if more than two animals want to join in the fun?

There are so many different ways to play whether it's by yourself, with two or with a crew and all of those ways are okay.

This fun story can help you find the words to say how you like to play.

And that's why you should check out this book at your local library.

- Oh, this so so great.

I love the way you said you can play alone, with two or with a crew.

I like the sound of that and I can't wait to check that book out.

A shrew and an elephant playing on the beach.

So cool.

Thank you so much, Miss Joanna.

We'll see you in a little bit cause we're gonna play our next game!

Ha ha!

Man, I gotta go find that book.

There are so many good books friends.

Seriously.

So many good books in the world.

Okay, okay, I'll stay focused.

Friends, we are going to play the game.

(laughs) - Friends, that was so fun playing Make A Rhyme!

Woo hoo hoo!

Friends, you can play that game anytime.

You could pick a topic, a theme, keep it wide open.

So many fun ways to play, I love it.

And Miss Joanna was talking about the sounds of the birds.

- Oh, there's a bird.

I can just hear the bird tweet, tweet, tweet.

The wind's about to blow, Oooh.

the sound of the wind, remember?

And then Mr. Brad might come by and go (tongue click) (laughs) And then would be and then we'd have like a whole game where we would see who could make the loudest (tongue click) noise.

We should bring Mr. Brad back in.

Hey Mr. Brad, could we hear that sound on the playground?

Right, right now?

(tongue clicks) (laughs) That's just fun.

Thanks Mr. Brad.
