Hello. We're going for a drive in the Makermobile today.

-I wonder what we'll see?

-Waah!

Tocky here! Mini Maker message.

Hello, I'm Elizabeth.

Hello, Elizabeth. Can I help you today?

-Yes, please, Mister Maker.

-OK, I'll be right with you.

Here I am.

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

-Can we make a picture using water?

-Yes, we can.

We can make a picture using water. And I've got just the idea for you.

It came to me the other day when I was painting.

I was just about finished...

'I'm just about finished.'

..when it started to rain.

'Oh, no! It's starting to rain! My painting!'

I was upset at first, but then I realised

that my painting wasn't ruined after all.

In fact, it looked quite interesting.

Oh, yes! That gave me a great idea.

Let's try something.

Try making a wonderful, watery, paint picture

for a really great effect.

BOTH: Let's make it!

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

-Ahhh!

-Ho-ho!

We'll also need some things from the Doodle Drawers. I'll be back soon.

Some paint.

In fact, lots of paint!

Some paper or card, and some felt-tip pens.

Ah! All this running around the Doodle Drawers has made me thirsty.

Huh! I think I need Scraps' help.

HE HONKS HORN

-Hello.

-Oh, hello, Scraps, my friend. Have you got any water, please?

SPLASHING

Oh, lovely! Thank you very much. Right.

Ahh! Ha-ha! Thank you, Scraps.

Have you got some water for our picture?

-Hmm.

-Thank you!

SPLASHING

Oh, well done, Scraps. A jug of water. Thank you.

-Bye!

-See you soon. Hee-hee!

Don't forget, some paintbrushes.

And we also need some plastic cups.

Let's make a watery-paint picture, like this one here.

Wow! Very colourful.

-OK, Elizabeth, are you ready?

-Yeah.

Brilliant! Are YOU ready?

Fantastic! Let's get making.

The first thing we're going to do

is make a special watery-paint mixture in...

a plastic cup.

-Now, what is your favourite colour?

-Pink.

Well, you're in luck, because we've got pink paint.

Can you put a big squirt of that paint in the cup, please?

Our special mixture is made up of half paint and half water.

Elizabeth, give it a mix, please.

We need to make lots of these mixtures in different colours.

Let's do blue next.

And any other colours you like.

Good. Here are all of our watery-paint mixtures.

I'm going to put them over here.

It's time to bring in a sheet of card.

I'm going to pass this over to you, Elizabeth.

I'm going to give you a brush and some water,

to brush all over the page.

Make sure you make the paper nice and wet.

Well done, Elizabeth!

I'm going to pick up our wet card.

Good job, it's very wet.

I'm going to put it down here

and I'm going to drip and move

blobs of the colourful painty mixture across the card.

OK, Elizabeth. Now it's your turn to have a go,

with a different colour.

Go for it!

Well done.

Put the brush back in there.

It's time for another colour. I think we should try orange.

Keep on doing this with all the mixtures

until your card is full of colour.

When the paint

is dry,

draw around all of the painty splodges with a felt-tip pen.

This looks great if you use lots of different colours.

There, it's all finished. A fantastic watery-paint picture.

You can make all kinds of pictures, using different colours and shapes.

How about using blue and green watery paint?

You could try brightly coloured watery paint, on a dark background.

Watery-paint pictures. Why don't YOU try one today?

-Did you enjoy that watery fun?

-Yeah!

We made it! Now, your home is where the art is. High-five!

Ha-ha! Brilliant!

What a wonderful watery picture. Great work, Elizabeth. Bye!

Ahhh.

Ha-ha-ha! Lovely. He-he!

It's brilliant being out and about.

There's always so much to see and do.

LAUGHTER

What's that noise?

LAUGHTER

Guess who that is?

Wooo! Heeeee!

Hey-hey! Wooo! Ahhh!

# 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 triangle.

What's hiding in the triangles?

Can YOU guess?

It's a saxophone.

Well done, Shapes.

-It's time to get back in the Doodle Drawers.

-Woo-hoo! Woo!

He-he!

Ah! I'm out in the fresh air, having a drive in the Makermobile.

-There's nowhere else I'd rather be.

-Wahh!

Minute-make time!

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

I've arrived.

It's minute-make time, everyone!

THEY CHEER

What does this sound like?

Thhrrrup!

I'll give you a clue, OK?

-Thhrrrup!

-Ribbit!

ALL: A frog!

-That's right. This...

-Thhrrrup!

..sounds like the croak of a frog.

Today, we're going to use these things to make a croaking frog!

We can make it in just one minute, using these things.

Some pom-poms, scissors,

coloured card, stickers,

a black pen, a pencil,

a glue stick and an empty plastic jar like this one, with ridges.

You can also use a plastic bottle, but you need to cut the top off,

so it's best to ask an adult to help you.

Do you think it's possible to make this croaking frog

in just one minute?

ALL: No way!

Let's find out. I'm going to have to be very quick.

I'll remind you how to do it, at the end. Are you ready?

-ALL: Yes!

-Are YOU ready?

Brilliant. Let's make it in a minute.

ALL: Three, two, one, go!

Start the clock!

Draw a big smiley mouth and a nose on the piece of paper.

Then we're going to roll it up, like that.

Then pop inside our empty jar. That makes our mouth.

Get the other piece of card and fold it in half, like that.

Get the scissors and cut a curved arch-shape.

-Take care with scissors, because they are?

-Sharp!

That gives us some froggy feet. Put some glue on there,

then stick on our frog. He needs some eyes.

Get the pom-poms and put those down.

Put one white sticker on there and another on that pom-pom.

We can put the black stickers on here, for a pupil,

and one more, like that.

Put more glue on the top

and we can put on the eyes, and we've made...

-ALARM RINGS

-..a croaking frog!

THEY CHEER

I did it just in time.

Now, we can take a pencil and run it

along the ridges of the frog

to make him croak.

If you've got more than a minute,

you can make lots of frogs.

How about this?

A little yellow frog, made from a small jar, with froggy feet.

Or you could make a sparkly, glittery frog, with eyelashes.

You could even use a really big jar to make a purple, spotty frog.

A croaking frog, made in a minute.

Why don't YOU try it?

Here's a reminder of how to do it.

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

Draw a smile and a nose onto card.

Roll it up and push it inside the jar.

Fold some more card in half,

cut an arch-shape at one end, then unfold it to make feet.

Stick them onto the jar.

Add stickers to the pom-poms for eyes.

Glue them to the top of the jar,

and your croaking frog is finished.

Why don't YOU try and make it in a minute? It's time for me to go.

Thanks for being part of a marvellous minute-make.

Goodbye!

ALL: Goodbye!

I wonder where we're off to next?

ALL: Hello, Mister Maker.

-Oh, nice to see you.

-Can you guess what we're making today?

What are they going to make?

I am black.

I am red.

I am grey.

I am orange.

I am brown.

I am peach.

ALL: It's a toaster!

Well done, everybody. See you next time!

-HE WHISPERS

-Hello, are you ready...

for a big surprise?

These mini-makers are not expecting me.

-Hello!

-Mister Maker!

Hello. It's lovely to meet you. Do you like funfairs?

ALL: Yeah!

Roll up, roll up, mini-makers! We're going to make a big fun fair game.

One where you have to...

hook a duck out of the pond.

Does that sound like fun?

ALL: Yeah!

Hannah, Grace, Jake, Lydia and Kwazi, let's make it!

We're going to make a big duck pond game. Let's start with our ducks.

How can we make a duck?

Get a paper plate, put a beak...

and then put some feathers on.

That's a great idea. What should our duck pond game look like?

Swift seas with ripped up water.

Ah, the waves of the water in our pond.

What colour tissue paper do we have?

-Light blue and dark blue.

-Light blue and dark blue.

-How can we catch the ducks?

-Get a stick and then wrap it around,

then, get a hook and attach it to the string.

That's a good idea. I think we're ready, aren't we?

-ALL: Yeah!

-Come on, then.

Let's make it!

These are the ducks.

Can I help, Jake? Here we go. Let's wrap this round.

This is our duck pond.

Here's a nice blue sky.

We need to make the grass. Come on, everyone! Spread it out.

Making this big surprise has been great fun.

Why don't YOU join in and make your very own mini-make?

Have all the fun of the fair. Make this fantastic catch-a-duck game.

You'll need washing up sponges and some wool, paint,

a glue stick, a cardboard tube and a clean yoghurt pot,

a button and some stickers,

some magnets,

scissors, a paintbrush and a pen.

First, paint a cardboard tube and leave it to dry.

Next, take a piece of wool and thread it through a button.

Tie a knot in the end, like this.

Tie the other end of the wool around the cardboard tube.

Glue one magnet to the button

and the other to the top of a clean, empty yoghurt pot.

Take some kitchen sponges, like this, or pieces of coloured card.

Draw a leaf-shape for wings,

a long tail-shape, and a triangle shape, for a beak.

Carefully, cut them out.

Stick them onto the yoghurt pot.

Add stickers for eyes,

and you're ready

to play catch-a-duck!

Will YOU be able to catch the duck? Why don't you try it?

Let's see how our big duck pond game is coming along.

Hey, mini-makers, come on! Let's make it.

Oooh.

Ha-ha! Well done, everyone!

ALL: We made it! Yay!

That game looks a lot of fun. Those ducks are going quackers!

Mister Maker! Time to go!

That's it for now. My making time's over, but yours is just beginning.

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