Oh! Hello there! Great to see you again!

I'm just about to go bird-watching!

Why don't you join me? It'll be great fun!

Hmm, now. I'm looking for a very rare bird.

It's the marvellous, multi-coloured, Makerland bird.

Yeah! I've never seen one before!

Oooh, nothing yet!

Maybe I should perform my very special bird call, yeah!

Cukcaw-cuckaw-cukaw!

Now that's done, let's see what we can see!

Oh wow! There she is!

Oh the marvellous, multi-coloured Makerland bird!

And do you know, she's given me a great idea!

Let's try something!

Try making a brilliant bird's nest picture! With a woven, woolly nest!

Let's make it! We'll need some things from the doodle drawers!

Some wool.

Some card.

A hole-punch.

A pen and some scissors.

And some sticky white stickers, and some gloopy PVA glue!

Now, to make your own brilliant bird in its own wonderful woolly nest,

like this one here,

we first need to draw a half-circle shape on some coloured card.

Now the easiest way to do this is to draw around something big and round!

Like a plate.

Now this should give us a big circle.

It does, great.

If we take a ruler and draw a line across the middle of it...

Perfect!

Now, let's cut out just one of these half circle shapes,

but be careful because scissors are sharp!

Next take a hole-punch, and very carefully punch holes

all the way around the curved edge of the half circle.

Here we go. Now this can be a bit tricky,

so you might want to ask an adult to help.

Next take a long piece of wool! It's time to make a woolly nest!

Thread the wool through each hole, one side to the other,

there we go.

Now feed the wool through every hole,

backwards and forwards across the nest!

If you want your nest thicker, pass it through the same holes again!

Don't worry if you run out of wool,

you can use another piece and keep going!

Once you're happy with your nest, turn it over and tie up

all of the loose ends with knots and snip off any extra bits of wool!

Now we've got our nest, we need two birds to live in it!

Let's get some bits of coloured card.

It works well if they are different colours.

And let's draw two birds!

Each bird is a big circle shape,

with a smaller circle shape on top for the head!

And curvy wings.

Now carefully cut out two triangle beak shapes from orange card,

and cut out your bird shapes.

Next we need to take some white-circle stickers,

and put them on for eyes!

We can add a black dot in the middle with a pen.

Stick on the beaks.

Little bit of glue there.

Now, we can stick our birds inside our nest!

We can even stick our bird's nest on another piece of coloured paper

or card to make it really stand out!

Fantastic!

You don't just have to make a bird's nest. you know. Oh no!

How about...

a woolly spider's web!?

With a card spider!

Or even a cottage with a woolly thatched roof!

It's up to you!

But now, let's get back to our marvellous,

multi-coloured Makerland bird!

And have a look at what she's up to! Come on!

Hey! She's looking at ME through her binoculars!

Honestly, how rude!

There! I like to have some privacy, you know!

SNORING

Oh. What's that noise?

It's coming from the shelves!

We know what that is, don't we? Come on!

That's right! It's the shapes!

They're asleep again!

Let's wake them up!

Whoa! Hey! Ha! Yeah!

ALL SHAPES: WHEEE!!

# 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 square!

What do you think the squares are making today?

Any ideas yet?

It's a train!

Well done, square!

Time to get back on the shelf!

ALL SHAPES: WHEEE!!

ALL SHAPES: Oh, hee-hee-hee!

SNORING

-Oh I really do love those shapes, you know, they're so funny!

-SQUAWK!

Tocky here! Minute make-time!

It's minute-make time! Come on!

Here's what we're going to make today!

A wobbly bug! It's a bug that's wobbly!

I'm wibbley-wobbley!

To make one, you will need:

A glue stick.

A pipe-cleaner.

Two pom-poms, that's one big and one small.

And we'll also need some air-drying clay, some googly eyes,

and half of a plastic egg!

You can get these from a toy shop or an arts and crafts shop!

I'll be back in a tick, wait there!

CAR ENGINE STARTS

I've got them!

Here we go!

Let's have a look!

One googly eye.

There's two.

And there's the ball of air-drying clay.

Also, here's a plastic egg which splits into two halves.

I'm going to use this half, which has a rounded bottom.

Now you don't just have to use a plastic egg, oh no!

There are lots of plastic containers that you can use!

Just make sure they split into two halves.

Do you think it's possible to make this in just one minute?

No way!

Oh! Well I think I can do it, Tocky!

I'll have be quick! I'll remind you how to do it at the end!

Start the clock!

Here we go!

Let's get our ball of air-drying clay

and squidge it into the bottom of our half of the egg.

Then we get a pipe-cleaner

and wrap it around our finger to make a spring!

I'm gonna spring into action, Tocky!

And push the spring into the clay, like that.

That's looking wobbly and good!

Now let's make our bug.

I'm going to put plenty of glue on to the small pom-pom,

like that, to make a nose.

Then I'm gonna put on the googly eyes!

Here we go, one googly eye.

And here's the other googly eye going on!

There we go!

And now I just need to stick him into the top of the spring.

Like this!

There he goes! You've got yourself one wobbly bug!

Stop the clock!

And if you've got more than a minute,

there are other wobbly bugs you can make!

How about using a yellow pipe cleaner with a purple pom-pom?

Or why not try making a really big wobbly bug?

By using a bigger pom-pom, and a bigger egg!

Wobbly bugs made in a minute! Why don't you try making one?

Here's a reminder of how to do it!

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

Put a ball of air-drying clay into the egg.

Curl a pipe-cleaner around your finger to make a spring,

and then stick it into the clay.

And then stick a nose and two googly eyes on to the pom-pom!

Push the pom-pom on to the spring to finish your wobbly bug!

Why don't you make it in a minute?

ALL: WE'RE HERE, MISTER MAKER!

Oh, hello everyone!

ALL: WATCH THIS!

I wonder what they're up to!

I am green!

I am red!

I am grey!

I am black!

I'm light blue!

I'm dark blue!

EVERYONE: It's a cement lorry!

Well done everybody! See you next time! Now it's time to...

Frame it!

Frame it!

Frame it!

Now, take a look at this!

It's an umbrella in the rain! It's really easy to do,

but looks so good, you'll be able to frame it!

You will need dark coloured paper,

a silver pen, a pencil,

paint, a brush, glue,

beads and buttons

and lots of blue stickers.

Draw an umbrella on dark coloured paper, with a pencil.

Then paint each panel of the umbrella a different colour.

When it's dry, outline your umbrella with a silver pen

and colour in the handle.

To make the rain, stick down your buttons,

beads and stickers in lines across the picture!

Use small ones at the top...

..and big ones at the bottom!

Fantastic!

And great fun to do on a rainy day!

What a brilliant picture!

Why don't you have a go?

And then...frame it!

Oh dear, looks like rain again!

I'm starting to feel a little bit hungry!

Mmm! Oh, excuse me! I'm just having a quick snack!

I do like yoghurt! Ha-ha!

Actually, I REALLY like yoghurt! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

All right, I really, REALLY like yoghurt!

Don't worry, all these yoghurt containers will come in handy,

isn't that right, Mr Yoghurt Pot?

-Yes!

-Ha-ha-ha!

Wait a minute! This has just given me a great idea!

Let's make something!

-Let's make an amazing yoghurt pot puppy-puppet!

-Woof-woof-woof!

Let's make it!

As well as a yoghurt pot,

we'll need things from the doodle drawers!

Some glue.

Some coloured paper and a black pen.

And some scissors!

So now you can make your very own yoghurt pot puppy-puppet,

like this one here.

Now, to make one of these, you need a plastic yoghurt pot like this

that's split into two halves.

You need to get an adult to help you find one,

and clean it out!

Then we need to paint it.

You can paint your puppy-puppet whatever colour you like,

but I think we should paint this one with a brown face,

and then maybe a black nose and a black mouth!

Now to paint our dog, we need to make a very special painty mixture,

that's made up of half paint...

and half gloopy glue!

Now this will really make sure that our painty mixture

sticks to the plastic.

Let's give them a mix!

Here we go! Now, let's get painting!

When the paint is dry, you can add some more detail with a black pen!

You can draw a line doing down from the nose to the mouth,

and we can add on some dots for whiskers!

Great!

Now we need to give our puppy some ears.

So for that we're going to bring in a piece of brown paper,

and we're going to slide it like this underneath our dog,

and then we're going to draw on two big ears!

That's one ear here, and another ear here!

Now let's remove the pot and add on a little bit extra.

Then we're going to cut out the ears,

but be careful, because scissors are sharp!

Glue the ears on to the back of the puppy's head,

there!

Our dog is starting to take shape, but now he needs eyes and teeth!

So for that, we're going to need some white paper or card.

We're going to start off with the eyes.

A good way to draw a circle is to draw around something round,

like this glue stick.

There are our circles, they will be the puppy's eyes.

Let's add pupils now with a black dot.

We can draw some nice dog teeth now as well.

And for the tongue, we need some pink paper!

Let's draw a nice big fat tongue shape!

Now we can cut all of our shapes out very carefully!

Next we can glue the eyes on the puppy's head,

For the teeth,

we need to very carefully fold over the teeth there along this edge,

and then we can glue along this edge here,

to help the teeth stick in position. And the roof of the mouth there.

And last, we've got the tongue! Let's put some glue on that!

And we can stick that on the bottom part of the dog's mouth here.

Here it goes.

Just bend his tongue down.

And there it is!

Your very own yoghurt pot puppy-puppet!

So let's put our fingers in the top part of the yoghurt pot there,

and our thumb in the bottom section.

Then you can bring your puppet to life!

Hello, Puppy-Puppet! How are you today?

Rruff!

Oh I'm sorry to hear that!

And you can make other yoghurt pot dogs in the same way!

How about a bigger dog?

Made from a salad container with a feather for hair!

Or how about a tiny poodle?

Made from a small snack pot, with pom-poms for fur!

So why don't you try making your very own yoghurt pot puppy-puppet?

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!
