Good morning and welcome to your Wednesday Newsround | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Here's a sneak peak at today's top news stories. | :00:07. | :00:12. | |
Find out why this dress has won one family the loom band lottery. | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
And Potter Mania hits Japan. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
A dress made entirely from loom bands has sold in an online | :00:20. | :00:29. | |
There were more than 100 bids for the dress. | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
It's worn here by 12-year-old Sian from Prestatyn in Wales. | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
It was her mum Helen who helped make it, in just three and a half weeks. | :00:41. | :00:48. | |
It is not known whether the winning bidder will pay up but the website | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
rules say that they must. That is a cool dress. | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
A big effort to redevelop the Imperial War Museum in London | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
has been completed, just in time to mark 100 years | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
Parts of the museum had to be completely rebuilt to fit everything | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
There are more than 1,300 items on display at the museum, which is one | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
And here's what it looks like now it's finished. | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
Perhaps you went to school in fancy dress? | :01:17. | :01:28. | |
However you raised money for Children in Need last year, | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
you'll be pleased to hear that your donations are spent throughout | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
the year to help fund over 2,500 projects. | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
One of those is called Taking the Reins and CBBC's Sam and Mark | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
went along to meet a group of children who have benefited | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
Hi there, we are Sam and Mark and today we are | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
Which is a Children In Need funded project so we will hang out with | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
kids, horses as well, we are just going to hang out! | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
Behind us we have got Beatrix and Phoebe, the little pony as well. | :01:57. | :02:06. | |
That is what is great about this place, it is open to all | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
kids so we have children with disabilities, behavioural problems, | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
I have been coming here for nine years. | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
And it has helped me build my confidence | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
because I didn't use to be confident and I used to be really shy. | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
There is a kind of magic to it in that it draws out of the children | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
a lot of confidence, lots of self-esteem, as you have probably | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
seen already and communication beyond, often beyond imagination. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
We have children speaking for the first time ever when they | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
We have been watching this session here. | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
We have got his teacher and the horse, apparently the | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
biggest horse we have got here which is why Caden loves this horse. | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
Rhianne is teaching Caden basically how to command the horse. | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
She has taught him how to walk around, how to trot and stop. | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
Caden is doing it all, it is incredible, | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
you can see the smile on his face because he is making the horse do | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
Well, we have had a great day here at Taking the Reins, | :03:13. | :03:22. | |
It has been great to see how the money you raise for BBC Children | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
Hogwarts Castle has opened its doors in Japan in east Asia, to a | :03:28. | :03:41. | |
Actors Tom Felton and Evanna Lynch cast a spell at the entrance of | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
Hundreds of fans - many in costume - were | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
The new park includes a recreation of Hogwarts Castle | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
and a rollercoaster called Flight of the Hippogriff. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
It's an honour and a privilege to be here today. | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
I'm so excited to see the Japanese fans, getting this opportunity to | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
Very pleased to see some Slytherin T-shirts over there | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
as well, some home support, so thanks very much for having us. | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
Thank you for sharing your passion and enthusiasm for the films | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
and books with us as well because it means so much after all these | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
President Obama is probably more used to having a driver | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
and a security guard than getting behind the wheel himself | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
but that's exactly what he did at a research centre in America. | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
He was checking out new technology that could one day make cars smart | :04:29. | :04:38. | |
enough to know whether another vehicle is coming around a corner. | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
This is so exciting. I haven't been in a car in a long time. | :04:43. | :04:49. | |
He tested it out from the seat of a driving simulator, a rare chance for | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
him to get behind the wheel - even if it was only on a virtual road. | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
That's all for now, but if you want to see some super sporting dogs or | :04:58. | :05:01. |
