Whoa!
He came over in this like, bicycle puppet.
Hi.
Hi Bow.
I wanted to show you a bike puppet.
Do you want to try getting on this thing?
[girls laugh] It's all done just strictly off the pedals.
So what I do is I take rope from the pedals to some pulleys.
When you pedal, you pull on a rope, which goes to the pulley and lifts the wings up.
He used a series of pulleys so every time he pedaled he didn't have to do anything, and then the arms would flap up and down.
So I just wanted to show you another idea to do rolling puppets.
Let's go inside.
We've got a really good idea of what we want to be doing now.
