-Mister Maker. #

Hello! Nice to see you again. I've come out for a drive.

There's so much to see and do

when I'm out in the Makermobile.

Tocky, here. Mini Maker message.

Hello, I'm Aman.

Hello, Aman. Can I help you?

-Yes, please, Mister Maker.

-I'll be right with you.

Here I am.

Hello, Aman. Lovely to meet you. How can I help you today?

-What can we make with this?

-What can we make?

Ah, this is cotton wool. And it's very useful stuff.

We could make...

'a cotton wool wig.

'Or a cotton wool beard.

'Or even a cotton wool moustache.

'Hey, Mister M, looking good!'

Ah, yes.

Cotton wool is soft, cuddly, and looks a bit like hair.

That's given me a great idea.

Let's try something.

Try making a cotton wool picture

of a woolly dog.

-BOTH: Let's make it!

-But first, we'll need somewhere to make it.

Ha-ha-ha!

And we'll also need some things from the Doodle Drawers.

I'll be back soon.

Some coloured card or paper.

Some scissors, a pen and a glue stick.

We also need some stickers. I wonder if Scraps can help us.

Hello, Scraps. You look smart. Love the bow tie.

And, actually, those sticky spots are just what we need.

Could I take some off, please? Thank you very much.

That's one.

There's another. One more should do. Excellent!

Thank you very much, Scraps.

Oh, Scraps? Where are you going all dressed up?

SCRAPS SINGS

The Doodle Drawer disco?

-Why wasn't I invited?

-MUFFLED MUSIC PLAYS

OK, Aman. Let's make a cotton wool picture like this one here.

It's a wonderful, woolly dog.

-All right, Aman, are you ready?

-Yes.

-Are you ready?

Fantastic! Let's get making.

First, we're going to draw a curvy shape

onto some coloured paper.

This looks like a bean.

We need to cut it out, but I need to be careful

-because scissors are...

-Sharp.

-That's right.

This is going to be the dog's body.

Now we need to stick this onto a sheet of coloured paper.

Can you put some glue on the back of that, please, Aman?

That's brilliant. I'll bring in a different sheet of coloured paper.

And I'll stick on our grey shape, like this.

Let's keep that to one side for now.

Cos it's time to unroll some cotton wool balls

to make them into nice, long strips.

Then unroll lots more, to make lots of woolly dog hair.

Now, I'm going to pass these over to you, my friend.

Cos we need to stick these onto the body of our dog.

Because the strips are going to be the dog's hair.

Can you put some glue on those strips for me?

That's it. Thank you very much.

When all the strips are stuck down,

we can stick on black stickers

for the dog's eyes

and the dog's nose.

But our dog needs a tongue.

So, Aman, can you take this pink card

and draw a nice tongue shape for us?

All we need to do is cut it out

and stick it on.

There! Finished.

A fantastic cotton wool picture of a woolly dog.

You can use cotton wool to make lots of pictures.

How about a brown dog,

with white, woolly spots?

Or even a pink poodle,

with lots of pink, fluffy, cotton wool balls.

Wonderful pictures with cotton wool.

-Did you enjoy that, Aman?

-Yes.

-Brilliant! We made it.

And now your home is where the ART is. High five!

Well done!

What a wonderful dog!

Great work, Aman. Bye!

It's brilliant being out and about in the Makermobile.

There's always so much to see and do.

What's that noise?

Who could it be?

Yay! Yeah!

# I am a shape

# I am a shape

# 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. #

'How many circles can you see?

'One.

'Two.

'Three.

'Four.

'Five.

'Six.

'Seven.

'There are seven circles.

'Well done, Shapes! It's time to get back in the Doodle Drawers.'

Hee-hee!

It's such a brilliant day for a lovely drive

out in the Makermobile.

Minute-make time!

Hey, it's minute-make time. I'm on my way.

Here we are.

-It's minute-make time, everyone!

-Yay!

Now, quiet, quiet. Ssh.

'So Mister Maker, here. One putt for victory. Can he do it?

'Pressure really starting to show, now.'

Get in the hole.

'Yes! He's done it! Let's look at that again.'

'Mister Maker is the golfing champion of the world. Marvellous!'

If you like golf but you haven't got room for it indoors,

why don't you make one of these?

A minute-make, mini golf game. Isn't it great?

Watch this!

Hey-hey!

And you can make one of these in just one minute, using these things.

A paper strip, a pencil, a straw,

a small bead and a small piece of felt,

a plastic lid, a glue stick, a rolling pin,

some sticky tape and we'll also need some air-drying clay.

You can find that in an art and craft shop. I'll be back very soon.

I've got it. Right. Here is our air-drying clay.

Do you think it's possible to make this

mini golf game in just one minute?

No way!

I think I can. But I'll have to be very quick.

Don't worry, I'll remind you how to do it.

-Are you ready?

-Yes!

Are you ready? Brilliant. Let's make it in a minute.

-Three, two, one, go!

-Start the clock!

Let's get our plastic lid and air-drying clay.

We're going to squash it down and use our fingers

to push it into all the corners.

This is messy, so ask an adult

to put down some old newspaper first.

Now we get our rolling pin

and roll it flat.

We can clear off these bits around the edges.

Now we get our felt and glue,

and put some glue on the felt.

Then get our straw.

If we push that together,

that can make a flag.

We stick that in the clay.

With a pencil we can make a hole by the flag, and one here.

That's where the ball starts.

Now we get our paper strip

and put some sticky tape on it.

We can wind it around the golf game,

and we've finished! I did it! Just.

And when it's dry,

you can pick up a bead to use as a golf ball,

and pop it in the hole.

And if you've got more time, you could paint it.

Or try this mini football game

with a goal made of drinking straws, modelling clay and net.

Or how about a mini cricket game

with straw cricket stumps and a lolly stick bat?

Or even a mini snooker table,

with coloured beads for balls, and a pencil for the cue.

Mini sports games made in a minute.

Why don't you try one?

Here's a reminder of how to do it.

Let's go back and take another look.

Squash some clay into a plastic lid,

and push it into the corners.

Roll out the clay to make it flat.

Glue felt around a straw to make a flag.

Push the straw into the clay and make two holes with a pencil.

Tape some paper around the edge for a border.

Pop in a small bead for a golf ball,

and your mini golf game is finished.

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

Time for me to go.

Thank you for another marvellous minute-make.

-Goodbye!

-Bye!

Where shall we go next?

Hello, Mister Maker.

Oh, nice to see you!

What do you think we're making today?

I'm not sure. Let's take a look.

I am grey.

I'm yellow.

I am orange.

I am green.

It's a desert island.

Well done, everyone! See you soon.

Hello. Are you ready

for a big surprise?

'These Mini Makers are not expecting me.'

Hello!

It's lovely to meet you.

-Can you hear that?

-Yeah. TRAIN TOOTS

It sounds like a steam train in the distance.

That gives me a great idea.

Woo-Woo!

I think we should make a big steam train.

Will you help me?

Yeah!

Fantastic. All right.

Arisha, Jack, Joel, Millie and Matthew.

Let's make it!

All aboard! Off we go!

OK, we're going to make a really big steam train.

-How big should it be?

-Massive.

-That big!

-As big as that, Matthew?

What can we use to make our train?

-What have you got there, Jack?

-We could use this for the steam.

-That could be what the steam comes out.

-Let's try.

Woo-woo!

-What shape are the wheels?

-Circles!

Can you find any circles here?

Pass me all the circles.

-These paper plates are good. I think we're ready, aren't we?

-Yeah!

Come on, then. Let's make it!

We are painting the train.

'And here's the steam.

'And this is a nice, blue sky.'

Well done, Mini Makers, that's it, put them down.

This big surprise has been great fun,

so why don't you join in and make your own mini make?

'All aboard! Try making this terrific train.

'Make it, play with it, have fun with it.

'To make one, you will need paint, some boxes and a plastic container,

'a pot with a lid,

'glue and stickers,

'a paintbrush,

'bottle tops and a pipe cleaner,

'some coloured paper,

'and sticky tape.

'First, glue two boxes together.

'Then stick on a pot like this

'to make the front of the train.

'To make the trailer, take a small box

'and glue on a plastic tray.

'Bend the ends of a pipe cleaner.

'Tape one end to the trailer,

'and the other end to the back of the train.

'Glue on plastic bottle tops for wheels,

'and paint the train and the trailer any colour you like.

'Once your train is dry, you can add on some details.

'Use paper for windows, and stickers for the insides of the wheels.

'Glue on strips of shiny paper for decoration,

'and lids for the train's chimneys and funnels.

'Your super steam train is ready to play with. All aboard!'

Why don't you try to make that train?

It'll be great fun to play with.

Now, let's see how our Mini Makers are getting on. Hello, Mini Makers.

Brilliant. Right, get the cab for me.

Well done, Matthew, well done, Arisha. In it comes.

Pass the funnel, please. Well done.

Very good. And the steam, now.

Hey, perfect!

Ha-ha! Great!

Finished, Mister Maker.

-Well done, everyone.

-We made it! Yeah!

'What a splendid steam train. Tickets, please!'

Mister Maker, time to go.

That's it for now. My making time is over.

But yours is just beginning!

It's time to put the Makermobile back in its box.
