Welcome to Music to our Ears,

0:07

where we share some interesting tidbits

0:09

and stories related to our favorite

0:11

Lingo Kids songs. What's

0:17

going on here, Elliott

0:19

and Kelly? You're watching cartoons? We

0:22

love this one.

0:25

You've seen it one hundred times.

0:29

Okay, maybe not one hundred.

0:32

Let's open up these curtains. Whoa,

0:36

it's so bright, right,

0:38

it's a beautiful day. Oh,

0:41

I can't believe it. You're still in your pajamas.

0:44

Time to get some fresh air and outdoor

0:47

playtime. Why the

0:49

sun gives you vitamin D for strong

0:52

bones. Outdoor play helps

0:54

your heart and lungs. Plus it's fun

0:56

to run, skip, bike, slide,

0:59

and play games. I

1:02

still prefer watching cartoons,

1:05

Cowie, did you know you blink less

1:07

when you stare at a screen? This can

1:09

dry your eyes out. Eyes

1:12

are meant to look at all sorts of things, some

1:15

close, some far away, and

1:17

some in between. When you stare

1:19

at a screen, your eye muscles don't

1:21

get the practice they need. Natural

1:24

daylight is also needed for your eyes

1:26

to develop properly. Geez. Kids

1:29

who are active outside do better in

1:31

school and have longer attention spans.

1:34

Play is good for the brain, so grab

1:37

your jackets. And sunglasses and let's

1:39

go play. Okay, Hey,

1:44

someone drew hopscotch squares on the

1:46

sidewalk. Who wants to jump

1:48

me? Whine? Two,

1:51

three, four, five, six,

1:54

seven, eight nine

1:57

ten, Dan, How

1:59

funny? Way better than sitting

2:01

inside? Right, Elliott Elliot?

2:05

Where'd he go over here?

2:08

Oh? A sandbox? A

2:10

great place for imaginations to

2:13

grow. Callie, jump in. There's

2:16

a bucket and a shovel, plus

2:18

lots of toys to create a world

2:20

of your own. We need Lisa

2:22

good idea. I'll call her.

2:32

Hi, Lisa, what are you doing

2:35

watching a movie? You're bored?

2:38

We're at the playground. Come join us.

2:41

Look nice sand castle,

2:44

Elliott Cowie. Did you make

2:46

the wall out of sticks? Yes?

2:48

Clever Lisa.

2:52

Hi, anyway you

2:54

got here quickly? I peddled

2:56

fast. A fun way to get

2:58

your heart pumping. Hey, see

3:01

those four swings over there? Yes,

3:03

yes, we can pump our legs

3:05

until our toes touch the sky. We

3:08

can pretend to fly that music.

3:12

Well, then let's swing and sing

3:14

a song about ways to play outdoors. Ready,

3:18

here we go, one, two,

3:20

three, fall.

3:21

Everybody play outdoors. It's

3:30

a beautiful day

3:32

to go outdoors. Let's play

3:35

outdoors.

3:36

It's a beautiful.

3:38

Day to play

3:40

outdoors. We escape

3:43

if we escape on a scapeboard,

3:46

right, if we rock on a

3:48

vice in the sand?

3:49

Bars dig dig dig

3:52

dig one

3:56

two three fall.

3:57

Everybody play outdoors. It's

3:59

a beautiful day

4:02

to go outdoors. Let's

4:04

play outdoors. It's

4:06

a beautiful way

4:08

to play outdoors.

4:12

We skate, yes, we skate on roll

4:14

escates. We hop, yes, we hop

4:17

in a game of hops between the one,

4:26

4:27

Everybody play out doors.

4:29

It's a beautiful day

4:31

to play outdoors. To play

4:34

outdoors.

4:35

B pay outdoors.

4:38

One two three four. Everybody

4:41

4:43

Kay, now

4:55

that was music to our ears.

4:57

We hope you like the song. You can sing

4:59

it all day long. How

5:02

much time are you spending staring at

5:04

a screen? What could you do outside

5:06

by yourself or with friends? Think

5:09

about it, Go by until

5:11

next time.
