0:00:59 > 0:01:03Radzi from Blue Peter tells us how you can get one of these.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26# So come on and have some fun

0:01:26 > 0:01:31# We've got a lot of things going on at the Let's Go Club

0:01:31 > 0:01:33# Let's go! #

0:01:36 > 0:01:41- Hi, I'm Jamie.- And I'm Hannah. Today we're learning Chinese lion dancing.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- Let's go!- Let's go!

0:01:45 > 0:01:51Chinese lion dancing is performed during Chinese New Year and

0:01:51 > 0:01:54other special occasions, to bring good luck.

0:01:56 > 0:02:02This is Mr Tang, and he has been teaching lion dancing for 30 years.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04He is going to help us today.

0:02:04 > 0:02:10'Before we start anything, we have to bow to our teacher.'

0:02:10 > 0:02:13OK, now we're going to do some stretching, OK?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15OK, slowly go down.

0:02:15 > 0:02:17And go back up.

0:02:17 > 0:02:19Go at the back.

0:02:19 > 0:02:21And go down.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25- OK? Ah, yes, really good.- Why do we need to do stretches, Mr Tang?

0:02:25 > 0:02:28Oh, the stretching is very important.

0:02:28 > 0:02:32It's just helping the muscle not getting hurt

0:02:32 > 0:02:34and more flexible, as well.

0:02:36 > 0:02:41'Now we can try some lion-dancing actions and poses.

0:02:41 > 0:02:45'They are called stances and come from kung fu moves.'

0:02:45 > 0:02:48I'm going to show you the square horse.

0:02:48 > 0:02:52'This move gets its name because this is how you might look

0:02:52 > 0:02:55'when you sit on a horse.'

0:02:55 > 0:02:59I'm going to show you the kneeling horse.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03This is the bow stance.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07It's called that because this is how your feet would be if you

0:03:07 > 0:03:09were shooting a bow and arrow.

0:03:12 > 0:03:17OK, we're now using some Hula Hoops to do some exercise, OK?

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Put the hoop on your neck. OK. Hold it.

0:03:20 > 0:03:25'We are using Hula Hoops to practise holding the lion's head.'

0:03:25 > 0:03:27Now you need to use the lion to do the bow, OK?

0:03:27 > 0:03:33'The first thing the lion does is bow as a mark of respect.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36Open.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39Yeah. On the floor.

0:03:39 > 0:03:45'The lion dance is important because people believe that the lion

0:03:45 > 0:03:48'chases away bad spirits.'

0:03:48 > 0:03:53'People have been performing the lion dance for thousands of years.'

0:03:53 > 0:03:55Back.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57Yeah, that's it.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02Next, we're going to try on the lion costume.

0:04:02 > 0:04:07Yes. You should flick this one, OK? Yeah, OK.

0:04:07 > 0:04:11'Now we can try some lion-dancing actions.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13'We are putting all the moves together...'

0:04:13 > 0:04:16Go back. OK, really good.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18'..to move like a lion.'

0:04:18 > 0:04:21Yes, that's it! Really good. Yeah!

0:04:24 > 0:04:26- BOTH:- We are ready to dance!

0:04:26 > 0:04:29To help us do our dance, we've got

0:04:29 > 0:04:32Kandi, Somye, Dennis and Hauyang.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Let's go!

0:04:37 > 0:04:41'They've all been dancing for a long time.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45'They are really good at lion dancing.'

0:05:02 > 0:05:04# The Let's Go Club. #

0:05:04 > 0:05:06# Let's go! #

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Hannah and Jamie, you were so good at that Chinese lion dance.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12That's got me in the mood to move.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Today's Cool Move is called the Dougie, and it goes like this.

0:05:16 > 0:05:18MUSIC PLAYS

0:05:20 > 0:05:24Yeah! It's called the Dougie because it's named

0:05:24 > 0:05:28after an American musician. It's really easy to get the hang of.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31All you need to do for this is make sure that your legs

0:05:31 > 0:05:33are a little bit apart, like mine.

0:05:33 > 0:05:38And your knees need to be a bit springy and bendy. Boing! Like this.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41First, we're going to step to the side and make

0:05:41 > 0:05:43a little arrow with our knee.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46So arrow, and then bring it in - in -

0:05:46 > 0:05:49and then the other way - arrow - and bring it in.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52And then we do a double arrow going this way.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Arrow and arrow.

0:05:55 > 0:06:02And the other side. Arrow and arrow and double arrow.

0:06:02 > 0:06:06Perfect! You've got it! Now we're going to use the arms.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10We bring them up like we're riding a motorbike. Brrrm!

0:06:10 > 0:06:13They don't need to stay here, they can follow your body

0:06:13 > 0:06:17as you move from side to side. So let's try it with the arms.

0:06:17 > 0:06:22We're going arrow and arrow and double arrow.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27That's it. Arrow and arrow and double arrow!

0:06:27 > 0:06:30Brilliant! And that's how you do the Dougie.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34Now, to see this Cool Move again, head to the CBeebies website.

0:06:34 > 0:06:39We might even use it in the club dance later. So keep practising!

0:06:39 > 0:06:45Oh, there was one thing I was wondering. Why do people dance?

0:06:48 > 0:06:49# Let's go! #

0:06:49 > 0:06:56# Why do we dance, dance, dance? Why do we dance, dance, dance?

0:06:58 > 0:07:01# People have been dancing Since their time on earth began

0:10:24 > 0:10:27- It's not that easy. You have to earn them.- Ah, OK.

0:11:43 > 0:11:47Now, who wants to find out how much fun cows have in springtime?

0:11:47 > 0:11:52- Yes, please!- Well, it's time to hand over to our Club Reporters.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02- My name is Ava. - And my name is Stephen.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06- And we're reporting from Down On The Farm.- Let's go!

0:12:11 > 0:12:16Today we are with JB to help farmer Stephanie to look after her cows.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19At the moment, the cows are still in the barn,

0:12:19 > 0:12:22but soon they'll go out into the fields.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26The grass hasn't grown enough outside yet,

0:12:26 > 0:12:28so the cows are eating silage.

0:12:28 > 0:12:32It's made from the grass that was cut last summer.

0:12:33 > 0:12:37The silage is very smelly, but the cows love it.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Hi, JB. What are you doing now?

0:12:42 > 0:12:45Well, I fed this cow earlier, and now I'm giving her a wash.

0:12:45 > 0:12:48What's your favourite part about being a farmer?

0:12:48 > 0:12:53I like going to see other people's farms. I love driving tractors.

0:12:53 > 0:12:56But most importantly, I get to do incredible things,

0:12:56 > 0:12:59like washing cows.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01There we go!

0:13:08 > 0:13:10That was our report from Down On The Farm.
