What's that?

Just what it sounds like.

Check out this situation.

Mismatched?

Magnificent.

Bold stripes and patterns?

Brilliant!

Different colors?

All are welcome here.

You can wear some, too.

Feeling crafty?

Check with an adult and decorate a pair however you'd like.

So bring it on.

Or should I say...put them on.

Curiosity and wonder.

Let's discover together.

It's Science Wow!

Walk outside in the cold, and you may find that your breath is now visible.

But why -- [ Exhales ] -- does your breath form a cloud?

♪♪ Hi, everybody.

My name is David Henry Wrigley, and I am a traveling science show presenter with the Franklin Institute.

And I am very excited today to share with you a phenomenon that I've noticed since I was very young.

When you breathe out, you actually breathe out water as a vapor.

[ Exhales ] Let's dive a little bit deeper.

So, when we're breathing in and breathing out [exhales] there are hundreds of different chemical elements that are in our breath.

But the most important thing that we're breathing in and out, if we're going to be able to see our breath, is something we can call condensation nuclei.

These are hundreds or even thousands of tiny little particles that are in our breath.

That might be soot or dust or cell particles or hundreds of other volatile organic compounds that are just in the air, upon which the water in our breath can condense.

Let's say you're in Antarctica.

It's very cold there, but it's also got very clean air.

There's no cities, no cars.

There's practically no life happening there.

So when you breathe out, even though it's very cold in Antarctica, you cannot see your breath.

But here, back in Philadelphia, where I've got plenty of condensation nuclei, and I breathe outside into the cold air, or perhaps I breathe over a Dewar of liquid nitrogen, which is resting here at about -320 degrees Fahrenheit -- very cold -- the water in my breath can condense upon those nuclei and form a cloud of my design.

[ Exhales ] Now, that's cool.

Spark of Science signing off.

Nice to see you back.

Who's ready for today's... Zach Challenge?

This guy!

[ Chuckles ] Over there, a pile of silly socks.

Over here, your head counselor with bare feet.

How many socks can I put on my right foot in 15 seconds, you say?

I'm glad you asked.

[ Countdown beeping ] [ Exhales sharply ] [ Clock ticking ] [ Clock dings ] [ Sighs ] Alright, let's see.

I got... one, two, three, four.

Four socks!

That's the way!

Maybe next time, we'll go head-to-head.

But for now, head over to your next activity.

I guarantee it will knock your socks off.

♪♪ Who's ready for a field trip?

My name is Arvolyn Hill.

I'm the Coordinator of Family Programs at the Everett Children's Adventure Garden.

And we miss all of our families at the Children's Garden.

And I hope that you are all cozy at home, and I have a fun activity for you to do while you're at home with your family.

So, one thing that I love to do and experiment is called a regrow garden.

It's where you take food scraps that you no longer are eating and you can grow new plants with them.

So, I have a couple of different vegetables with me.

And I'm going to show you how to regrow them in water to make even more plants at home.

The first one we have is a green onion.

And you'll see at the bottom here there are roots already growing.

So, if you have -- You can use your hand.

You can use a little butter knife.

And when you're chopping the onions, this is the part that you'll eat, but this part if you save and you place in water, in a few weeks, you'll start to see the new plant regrow.

Another vegetable that you can do is a red onion, as well, too.

This one, I already cut all of the other parts of the onion that I'm gonna eat, and then you see at the bottom there are roots.

So, you're going to find another water container.

Any dish can do.

And you want to submerge it so that only the bottom of the onion is in water 'cause that's the part that's going to grow roots, and the rest is gonna pop in at the top right here.

We also have basil.

[ Sniffs ] Mmm!

I love this one.

If you look down, you have a stem.

And so you can eat different basil leaves, but save the top 'cause we're also going to put this one in water.

And then in a few weeks, it'll also start to grow roots.

And then lastly -- actually, not lastly -- second to lastly, we have a pineapple.

I already cut up my pineapple, and I've been snacking on it all day, but I saved the top.

And guess what.

We're going to also put this in water, and then it's going to start to grow even more.

So, you can grow a new pineapple.

And then lastly now, I have a red pepper.

And this one we're not going to put in water, but if you see right here, these are all pepper seeds.

So, I'm just going to take a few and I have a little pot with some soil.

And I'm going to make a hole.

And I'm going to place the seeds in there, and I'm going to put them -- all of these things into a sunny window in my home.

And I want you to do the same thing with vegetables that you have and keep track of them and look for those roots.

And in a few weeks, you'll start to see certain things grow.

The only thing you need to remember to do is every few days change the water so that the water doesn't start to get smelly.

You want to have fresh water for your plants every day.

You change the water, and you spray them.

And it's like an experiment.

We're going to grow new plants together at home.

Thanks, everyone.

I just wanted to do a quick video to give you an update on my regrow garden video.

I filmed that video about two months ago, and I just wanted to show you some of the plants from that video and how they're doing now.

So, the first one I want to show is the green onion, or the scallions.

I've been keeping them in water since that last video, and they've regrown.

I cut them about once a week.

And within a few days, they start to grow really fast.

They're starting to get really big now, so I'll probably want to cut them soon, but I would say this one has been the fastest growing of all of the plants.

And you just see really quick results.

The other one is the pepper seeds from the red pepper that I had in the video.

I put the seeds in soil, and within a few weeks they started to sprout.

And I transplanted them into these bigger pots.

And I'm going to keep them in these pots probably for a little bit longer until they get a little bit bigger, until I eventually decide to put them in my garden.

So, thank you so much for watching.

I hope you're also enjoying growing food scraps at home as well, too.

Have a great day.

Arts and crafts?

Yes, please!

Let's Get Artsy.

Hi.

Welcome back.

You know, while you were gone, I started thinking about silly sock day, how much joy it brings us Camp TVers.

But what about the socks themselves?

Let me explain.

So, I've been pretty focused on the single socks, ones without their "soul mates."

Don't you think they must feel a little lost?

I mean, after all, these socks had a very clear purpose in life -- be the right socks to the left or the left to the right.

And now -- well, now they're just stuffed in the back of a drawer, jealous of their friends still out there doing what they do best.

Don't you think they deserve a little better?

Let's give these single socks a second chance.

A makeover, if you will.

So, I present to you... Sammy the Sock-topus!

If I can do it, you can do it.

Ask an adult for an old tube sock and the following -- some pillow stuffing, a rubber band, some scissors, and a marker or googly eyes.

♪♪ First, put some stuffing into the top of the sock and make it into a ball.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ Next, take a string and tie the top closed.

♪♪ Next, very carefully, or with the help of an adult, cut the long part of the sock in half and then that half in half and then that half in half, for a total of eight legs, or tentacles.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ So now we have four tentacles.

We have to cut it in half one more time.

♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ And lastly, draw on some eyes or put on the googly eyes.

♪♪ And bam -- your very own sock-topus.

♪♪ Ready for some math that counts?

Count On.

♪♪ Miss Cristal: Whoa!

Hey, friends!

What's up, guys?

I hope you're ready to hang out today.

I think you should grab some paper 'cause we are going to talk about... [ Rhythmic tapping ] ...fact families!

Hey, guys!

Welcome to another episode of "Critical Thinking" with me, Miss Cristal.

So, today we're going to be talking about triangles.

Cool, right?

And families.

Yeah.

Matter of fact, fact families.

Get it?

Matter of fact, fact families.

[ Laughs ] I'm so funny sometimes.

Anyway, so, have you heard a fact family?

They're really cool.

It's kind of like how they work together 'cause families, you know.

work together.

So, if you think of it like this -- You get this triangle, right?

And in the triangle, you can move around, up, you can come down.

Well, in a fact triangle, in order to go up, you need to add.

In order to come down, you're going to need to subtract.

Get it?

Addition and subtraction -- they work together, but they're opposites.

Get it?

Cool.

I know you already knew that.

So, let's use some basic numbers as an example.

Let's deal with, like, 3 and 2.

Let's find their sum.

And those of you out in math land, who knows what sum is?

When we find the sum, that means we're going to add.

All right, cool.

If we're adding, the number's going to go up.

So, if we're going up, that means we got to start down low.

So they're actually sitting in the bottom of the triangle.

They're going to add to make what?

Mm-hmm.

Exactly.

5.

That's the missing piece in this triangle.

So, 3, 2, and 5 actually make a fact family, working together.

Now, watch what happens in this triangle.

We can do 3 plus 2 makes 5.

We can go 2 plus 3 makes 5.

That's how we're going to be able to add the two different ways.

But how do we come down?

How can we use that subtraction?

Well, we would start at the top.

5 lives up here.

He's like, "Yo, guys, the only way I can come down to you is if you subtract.

Because, remember, subtraction makes the number go down, and in order to go down, we need to start at the top.

So, here we are with that number 5.

He's the big guy sitting up there.

5 minus 2 equals 3.

What's another way we can come down?

5 minus 3 equals 2.

Right?

Cool.

Alright, so, how can I use this triangle to help me in other problems, with maybe not so simple, basic numbers like 3, 2, and 5?

Because big numbers, believe it or not, have family members, too.

So, here's an example of maybe a "word problem" that -- who knows?

-- you might get thrown.

Maybe, maybe not.

Who knows?

My sister collects marbles, okay?

And say the colors are blue and yellow.

So, she says to me, "Guess how many marbles I have now."

And I say, "I don't know.

Just tell me already."

She says, "79."

"What?

You've been collecting the marbles a long time."

And she's just like, "Yep, sure have."

And she's like, "I have 32 blue.

Guess how many yellow I have."

And I'm like, "Well, I don't really have to guess.

"I can kind of do, like, the work and figure it out "'cause you told me you have a total of 79 and 32 of them are blue."

Alright, so I start plugging in the numbers she gave me into the triangle.

But where?

She had a total of 79.

So that meant the blue and the yellow together made 79.

So, where is 79, then, in the triangle?

Oh, yes.

It lives up here.

Yeah!

Somebody said it, and I heard you.

Alright, so, where does the 32 live?

Miss Cristal, did you really just... You already took that spot.

32 has got to live down in one of these.

Alright, so, choose a side.

Choose a side.

Alright, we'll go over there.

So, 32 down here, 32 blue, with the -- I don't know how many yellow -- make the 79.

Alright, so, I step away, and I look.

Alright.

32 plus something makes 79.

Okay.

32 plus what?

I don't know.

This is where I say, "Well, how else can I travel in that triangle to make me get to this question mark?"

Well, this is where I go, "Well, then just start at the top."

79 can come down to the question mark.

Well, this is where you got to stop and ask yourself, "Am I adding when I come down, or am I subtracting when I come down?"

Yeah.

Somebody said, "Miss Cristal, "stop and think about what you just said!

You're coming down!"

I know, right?

It just -- It just feels natural to say, "Subtract already!"

You're coming down, right?

So, 79 minus 32 will equal my question mark.

So now I just have to do the math.

And once I do that math -- [ Tires screech ] My bad.

Sometimes I can get ahead of myself.

Why don't you guys go ahead and set it up and do 79 minus 30, see what you come up with?

♪♪ ♪♪ Sweet.

Now back to my story.

79, blank, 32.

I looked at my sister.

I said, "Um, sister, you have 47 yellow."

She was like, "How did you figure that out?

You didn't even count them!"

I said [exhales] "I did the math."

[ Cymbals crash ] Anyway, it really is very useful.

So, why not give it a try?

[ Laughs ] "Try"-angle.

Why don't you try it?

Get it?

Triangle.

Give it a try.

Yeah.

I'm so funny sometimes!

On another note...

I'm proud of you, you -- [ Tires screech ] Get it?

The other note?

Did you hear it?

[ Crickets chirping ] Maybe I'm not as funny as I thought.

Carry on.

I really am proud of you.

You, you, you, and you.

Just go try it.

So thank you once again for joining me, Miss Cristal, for the most critical thinking.

[ Laughs ] ♪♪ So, what do you think?

Up to silly sock day standards?

♪♪ Daytime or nighttime, it's always time for story time.
