Mister Maker!

Hello there!

Someone's left footprints on my floor!

DRAMATIC MUSIC

Yes, and they're too big to be mine. Look.

Look at that!

So, come on then, own up. Who's left their muddy footprints behind, eh?

Who was it, huh?

No-one prepared to admit it. Don't worry. I'll look into it later.

These footprints have given me an idea!

DING!

Try setting your footprints in stone

and make them look really old in a stone picture.

Let's make it!

We'll need some things from the Doodle Drawers.

SILLY TUNE PLAYS

Three pieces of card.

Some ripped up bits of tissue paper.

Some white sticky PVA glue.

Whoa!

And most importantly you'll need some play sand.

You can get that from your local DIY or pet shop. Won't be a minute.

KERCHING!

I've got it!

Now, to make your stone picture like this one,

the next thing you'll need will be, um...

That's right, a foot!

I'm popping upstairs to take my shoes and socks off.

Now, to make your stone footprint like this one,

take one your pieces of card

and draw round your foot with a pen.

Then cut this out with some scissors.

Now, be careful cos scissors are sharp.

GROWL!

You might want to ask an adult to help you with this bit.

Next, use your cut-out foot as a guide and draw around it

onto your second piece of card.

And then cut this one out too - carefully!

Now take your other piece of card

and stick your cut-out feet onto it. One on top of the other.

Next, cover the whole thing in glue.

Next, place tissue paper all over your picture.

Scrunch it up and then stick it on.

If you want,

you can add extra bits to build up your toes

and the other parts of the foot.

Now, put it in a tray

and whilst it's still wet,

sprinkle play sand all over it.

Now, sprinkle off all of your extra sand and look,

it's a stone footprint. Wow!

Why not try some other shapes, like a stone hand?

It's made in the same way - that is handy!

Or how about a stone crab?

NIP! NIP!

You can do that by drawing a crab shape onto cardboard.

What a little nipper, eh?

So go on, try making a stone picture - they're great!

But back to the question - who left these footprints?

-DING-DONG!

-Oh!

-VERY DEEP VOICE:

-I did! Got a problem with that?

No! No problem! Sorry.

HE GULPS

SNORING

Who's that snoring?

THEY SNORE

These are the Shapes.

Aw, they're asleep.

I've got an idea.

Let's wake them up!

Rise and shine! Come on.

Oooh! Aaah!

HE GIGGLES

Take it away!

Oh! Hey! Ah!

Ohh!

-# I am a Shape

-La-la-la-lah

-# I am a Shape

-La-la-la-lah

-# I am a Shape

-La-la-la-lah

-# I am a Shape

-La-la-la-lah... #

I am a circle.

I am a triangle.

I am a square.

I am a rectangle.

I am a Shape.

I am a rectangle.

What are the rectangles going to make?

Can you guess?

It's a house. Well done, Rectangle.

Time to get back on the shelf.

Whee! Oooh!

SLEEPY MUTTERING

I love those Shapes, they're brilliant! Did you...?

Squawky, here!

-Oh!

-Minute Make Time! Minute Make Time!

It's Minute Make Time!

Let's make a torch-projector.

I'll show you. Turn the lights down.

Now torch-projectors are great

for shining spooky patterns in the dark.

Like this spider.

The spider's appeared as if from nowhere!

Ooh! Let's turn the lights back up.

Right, to make a torch-projector you will need

a crisp tube with a lid,

some black paper,

a glue stick,

a pencil, some scissors

and, of course, a torch.

Do you think it's possible to make a torch projector in just a minute?

No way!

Really? I think it is. Let's find out.

I'm gonna have to move very quickly, but don't worry,

I'll remind you how to do it at the end.

Here we go! Let's make it in a minute!

Let's get our rectangle of black paper

and fold it in half.

With our pencil, let's draw a spider shape

like that... Here we go.

Now our scissors.

Be very careful with this cos scissors are sharp.

It's time to cut out the spider shape.

This is quite fiddly,

so you may want to ask an adult to help you with this.

Yes, this is tricky to do.

Be careful!

I'm being careful. Don't worry!

One leg to go.

Hurry up!

Don't want to cut a leg off.

And there's our spider shape.

Let's get our glue.

Stick with glue on the lid

like that.

And if you put our torch inside,

put it on there and it's done! I did it!

Just in time.

You're not wrong. Woo!

Let's check it works.

Let's turn the lights down.

There we go.

Let's have a look. Where's my spider?

Oh! There he is.

Look, it's a spooky spider.

You don't have to make a spooky spider.

There's lots of shapes - like a spooky bat.

If you don't like spooky bats, you could do - a star!

That's great.

Now, let's turn the lights back up.

You can decorate your torch-projectors like this.

Torch-projectors 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.

Fold the piece of card in half and then draw half a shape on it.

Carefully cut around the lines and then open it out

and look - it's a full shape.

Stick the shape onto the crisp tube lid

and with your torch on inside the tube your projector works!

Try making it in a minute.

ALL: Hello, Mister Maker.

Guess what we're making today.

Oh, I don't know. Mmm... Let's have a look.

THEY LAUGH

I'm brown.

I'm yellow.

I'm green.

-ALL:

-It's a snail!

Well done, everybody. See you next time.

Now it's time to frame it!

Frame it!

Frame it!

Now, have a look at this.

Look at this great exploding firework picture.

It's easy to do, but looks so good that you'll be able to frame it.

You'll need some dark coloured paper,

brightly coloured paint, glue,

glitter and a paintbrush.

First, squirt some blobs of paint all around your paper.

You don't have to be neat.

Now, flick the paint out of each blob with a paintbrush, like this.

This is great fun.

Then make it extra explosive - use your paintbrush

to splash some sticky white PVA glue

all over your picture.

Now, shake some glitter over it...

Shake it all off and wait for it to dry.

What a great firework picture!

Why don't you try it?

When it's all done, it looks really explosive. Ka-boom!

FIREWORKS EXPLODE

What a great way of making a really clever picture.

-Now all that's left to do is...

-CLICK!

..frame it!

Doesn't that look amazing!

Now, have a look at this.

Woo-ooh! Woo-ooh! Woo-ooh!

Hello! It's only me.

These plastic jars are useful for keeping things in.

That's why I've been collecting some to keep things in.

Yes, you've guessed it, they've given me a great idea!

DING!

Impress your friends and fit an ocean into a jar

with its very own ship sailing on the high seas.

Let's make it. We'll need some things from the Doodle Drawers!

A plastic jar with a lid that's big enough

for you to get your hand in and out of easily.

A straw.

Some white rice.

Some blue food colouring.

Some modelling clay.

And some kitchen roll and a glue stick.

Whoa!

Now, this is quite a lot of stuff, but it's worth it

because the ship in a jar is a great make.

First, we need to make some sea.

We take some white rice and add a few drops of blue food colouring.

There we go. Then give it a stir.

There.

Whilst that dries, we can make our ship.

And for this we take our modelling clay

and squeeze it into the shape of a ship.

-Let's get shipshape!

-SHIP HORN BLOWS

SEA SHANTY TUNE

There.

Now get a square of kitchen roll and cut off two corners,

one big and one small.

These are going to be the sails.

Like this.

But remember to be careful because scissors are sharp.

GROWL!

This leaves you with one big triangle and one small one.

Now fold them in half.

Like that...

and like that. There.

Remember your straw? We need to very carefully cut two bits off it

about the same size.

Like that

and like that.

Now, we need to stick our cut-out kitchen roll sails to our straw.

All done.

Next, push the finished sails into the ship.

There. Now we need to slide our ship into our jar.

Very carefully... In it goes.

And press it down

nice and hard like that.

There, we're nearly done. But there's one thing missing.

Remember? The blue rice.

We need to carefully pour it inside

because this... is going to be our sea.

So let's screw our lid back on.

There. Fantastic!

So try making your very own ship in a jar...

SEAGULLS CALL

..complete with a lovely realistic blue sea!

Not that realistic!

Time to go! Time to go!

Oh! That's it for now.

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

See you soon!

It's time to put all this stuff back in its box.
