Mister Maker Around The World!

Hello. It's making time.

Get ready for an arty adventure around the world!

Today, we travel to South Africa, to find out how to make

a frightening finger pen in just one minute.

We build a super snowy scene

and showed you how to create a little log cabin.

First, we're off to Australia, in search of an underwater arty idea.

Wow! We're in Australia.

Hey, we're down by the sea and look!

There's an aquarium.

What a fantastic place to get some arty ideas. Ha-ha!

Wow! Look at all these fish!

They're so colourful and all different shapes and sizes.

Look at that shark. There's something fishy going on here.

I've just had an idea.

Let's try something.

Use salt to make this amazing salty sea picture.

Let's make it!

Oh, lovely. We'll need a mini maker to help us.

Let's see if there's one nearby.

PHONE BEEPS

Hello, mini makers. Now, who's going to help me today?

-Hello, Mister Maker. My name is Madeline.

-Hello, Madeline.

-I can help you!

-Fantastic!

Thanks everyone. We'll see you soon.

Great! Madeline is on her way to help us make the picture.

But first, we need somewhere to make it.

Wonderful! The Marvellous Maker Case

has become a marvellous making table.

Now we're ready to make our picture, by using these arty things.

Some sheets of white paper...

.. some water...

..a washing-up sponge and a bowl...

..some food colouring...

..some brushes and some pens...

..some salt...

..some scissors and a glue stick.

And last, but not least,

we also need a tennis racket.

A tennis racket? We don't need a tennis racket.

Scrappz. How did you get here?

We don't need one of these, but we do need some stickers, please.

Take the racket back. Go on, that's it. Be careful! That's it.

Oh, brilliant. Well done, Scrappz. Thank you!

We've got some stickers!

Now we've got everything we need.

But it feels like something's missing. Mmmm.

-Do you know what it is?

-I'm here, Mister Maker!

-Madeline! Of course.

It's you! Thank you very much for coming.

You're just in time, because we're going to make our picture,

like this one here.

It is a salty sea picture!

Now this can get a little bit messy,

so it's a good idea to put down some newspaper or some old paper

first and, Madeline, I think we should put on some aprons.

-Does that sound like a good idea?

-Yes.

-OK, then, lead the way.

-Look at us. Now, Madeline, are you ready?

-Yes.

-Brilliant.

Are you ready?

Fantastic. Let's get making.

The first thing we're going to do is turn our plain white paper

into some patterned paper.

Let's use a sponge and some water for this. That's it, Madeline.

Now, make the paper nice and wet.

And whilst it's still wet, we are going to need some of this stuff.

It is food colouring.

Now you can buy food colouring from a food shop, but you might

have some at home already, so ask a grown-up to help you.

First, we're going to use blue food colouring

and spread it onto the paper.

Now, whilst everything is still wet, it's time for our special

ingredient - salt. Here it is.

And when we sprinkle the salt over the wet food colouring,

it leaves an amazing pattern behind.

Now you can sprinkle this ordinary salt

or you could even use this. Ha-ha!

Rock salt. Ha-ha! Let's try this, Madeline.

Sprinkle rock salt wherever you like.

It comes in much bigger pieces and it leaves bigger marks

on the paper. When you've finished sprinkling,

leave it to dry.

We've made lots of different colours of paper, like this,

and brushed off all the dried salt.

We're ready to start drawing now, Madeline. And what shall we draw?

-Seaweed and some fish.

-Seaweed and some fish. That's a great idea.

I tell you what, why don't you take this pink paper

and let's get drawing!

When you've finished drawing, carefully cut everything out.

Remember to keep one piece for your background.

Now we can arrange all of the pieces in our picture.

And when you're happy with your picture, glue everything down.

We've finished. We've even added some stickers for eyes and mouths.

A brilliant salty sea picture!

And if you enjoyed that, how about trying these ideas, too?

A salty octopus, with orange fish.

Or you could even try a wonderful whale in a salty sunset.

Why don't you try one of those pictures today?

Well, thank you so much for your help, Madeline.

BOTH: We made it!

High-five! What a fantastic picture!

What a brilliant salty effect! Well done, Madeline.

Oh! It is wonderful travelling the world. There's so much to see.

Oh, look! That's Sydney's famous Opera House.

SUITCASE BOINGS

What's that noise coming from the Marvellous Maker Case?

Can you hear that?

DOOR BOINGS

It's the shapes! They're off on their journey around the world.

# I am a shape (la-la-la)

# I am a circle

# I am a triangle

# I am a square

# I am a rectangle

# I am a shape

# I am a shape

# I am a shape

# I am a shape

# I am a circle. #

What's hiding in the circles?

Can you see?

Any ideas, yet?

It's two koalas!

Well done, shapes. It's time to get back in the Marvellous Maker Case.

ALL: Wheeee!

Ohh! It's so much fun travelling the world.

You never know when you're going to meet new friends. Hello, you guys.

PHONE RINGS

The Maker Phone's ringing.

Oh! It's Tocky!

-Warrr! It's minute-make time in South Africa.

-Thanks, Tocky.

It's minute-make time!

CHEERING

That's right, my friends. Today, we're going to make something

that's really, really spooky.

HE LAUGHS EVILY

Mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha.

It's this frightening finger pen.

But it's not just spooky, it's really useful, as well. Watch.

It's a real, working pen.

Now, we can make one of these fantastic, frightening finger pens

by using these arty things.

We've got a pencil, a pen

and a scrap of paper or card.

This scrap is in the shape of a teardrop.

We'll also need some green air-drying clay.

Now, you can find this in an arts and craft shop.

Today, to save time, I'm going to order some on my Makerphone. Right.

Here we go. Ooh, yes. Green air-drying clay. Right.

Add to cart. Oh!

That was quick. Let's have a look, see what we've got inside.

How perfect! Look, everyone. It's some green air-drying clay.

Now, don't worry if your air-drying clay isn't green,

because you can use whatever colour you like.

Now, we've got everything we need.

But do you think it's possible to make this frightening finger pen

in just one minute?

ALL: Don't be silly!

Me, silly?! I don't think so.

But I will have to be very quick.

But don't worry, I'll remind you how to do it at the end. Are you ready?

ALL: Yes!

Brilliant. Are YOU ready?

Fantastic. Let's make it, in a minute.

ALL: Three...two...one!

Start the clock. The first thing to do is get our air-drying clay

and squish the pen into it, like this,

making sure that we leave the nib outside, like that.

Then we're going to squeeze the clay all around it, like this,

into the shape of a very spooky finger, like that.

Round and round it goes, like this. It's very bobbly.

And you can make it any shape you like

and it can be really, really fun if you use a pencil like this

to make some wiggly lines like this

and some wiggly lines there. Here we go, in the middle.

And some wiggly lines at the back like that.

You can even make some dots, as well.

And if you get a ball of air-drying clay,

you can roll it like this to make a wart to go on your finger, as well.

Just squidge that on. Last but not least, you stick on

your scrap of paper and you've made a frightening finger pen.

I did it just in time, but if you've got more than a minute,

you could leave your frightening finger pen to dry and paint it.

You could even try these other ideas, too.

How about this gorgeous, glamorous finger with a plastic jewel ring

and a bright red nail?

Or you could even make a weird werewolf finger,

with a nasty brown nail and fun fur.

Why don't you try and make it in a minute?

Here's a reminder of how to do it.

Let's go back to the beginning and take another look.

Cover a pen with air- drying clay,

making sure you don't cover the nib end.

Make wiggly lines with a pencil.

Add a wart, with a small lump of clay.

Stick on a scrap of paper, for a nail,

and your frightening finger pen is finished.

Why don't YOU try and make it in a minute?

Thank you so much, my friends,

for being part of another marvellous minute-make.

ALL: Bye!

What's this?! It's a Mini Maker postcard.

Let's see what we've been sent today.

Hello. My name's Roberto and I drew a helicopter for you, Mr Maker.

I used paper and I used plastics.

I drew up a propeller and wings.

I hope you like my helicopter, Mr Maker.

Hello. My name's Trinity and I made a picture for you.

It's a sun, made out of pipe cleaners,

and a rainbow, made out of pipe cleaners,

and a bird, made out of feathers. Do you like my picture, Mr Maker?

What fantastic ideas. Why don't you try one of them at home?

-TELEPHONE RINGS

-Oh. Excuse me.

The Makerphone's ringing.

Ah, some Mini Makers are calling.

Hello, Mr Maker. I'm Elysee from the UK and these are my friends.

Hello, Mini Makers.

-Please can you help us make a picture?

-I'd love to.

I'll be with you for a high-five in five...

four...

..three...

..two...

one.

We're in the UK.

I made it! I told you I would, Mini Makers.

Let's get some high-fives. Excellent. Nice.

What picture would you like to make?

ALL: Snow!

A snowy picture. That sounds like a great idea.

-What's going to be in our snowy picture?

-Trees with snow on.

-Is it going to be quite cold in our picture?

-Yes.

Brrrrr. Very cold. And what else shall we have in our picture?

-A house with snow on.

-Lovely.

-A reindeer.

-A reindeer? Brilliant.

-I think we're ready, aren't we?

-ALL: Yes!

Let's make it together.

These are the mountains.

And this is the snow.

This is the log cabin.

We're making the logs.

And we need a nice blue sky.

We're having great fun making our big picture

and that's just given me an idea.

Why don't you make something, too?

Try making your own little log cabin. It's great fun to make.

You will need corrugated card and a pen,

a clean, empty juice carton,

coloured card and a glue stick,

a plastic or paper plate and stickers

and some scissors.

First, find some corrugated card, with grooves running across it.

Turn the card over and place the closed carton onto the card.

Draw around the pointy side first

and, then, the other side, like this.

Do this again underneath, so that you have two of each shape

and carefully cut them out.

Now, glue the shapes on to the carton, like this.

Stick on a card door and a window

and a folded piece of card, for a roof.

Next, glue the log cabin onto an upside-down plate.

Then decorate everything with coloured stickers, however you like.

Your log cabin is finished and ready to play with.

What a great idea. Why don't you try it?

But right now, look, the Mini Makers are building a house.

Very good. Good work.

Well done. Good chimney.

Well done, everyone.

ALL: We made it together! Yay!

what a brilliant snowy picture.

Brrrrrr. It looks pretty chilly.

Wow. What an exciting arty adventure we've had today.

Remember, wherever you are in the world, keep making.

TELEPHONE RINGS

Excuse me.

Oh, it's Tocky.

Time to go. Time to go.

Oh, thanks, Tocky. I'll be home soon.

Well, that's it for now.

My making time's over, but yours is just beginning.

It's time to put the marvellous Maker Case back in its box.

Make it, Mr Maker!
