  • Welcome to the classroom.

  • Why don't you hop, hop on in, hi.

  • Can you guess what I am?

  • What am I? (giggles)

  • I'm a frog, ribbit, ribbit.

  • Frogs love to hop, hop,

  • and swim, glub, glub.

  • And they love to eat bugs,

  • (gulps) yum, yum. (giggles)

  • They catch bugs using their long, sticky tongues.

  • Got one! (giggles)

  • My frog mask uses magnets to catch these bugs.

  • Let's catch some more!

  • Got one!

  • Mmm another yummy bug.

  • Let's see you get some more.

  • Aw, missed.

  • Another one.

  • Got it.

  • Do you think we can get them all?

  • Let's see.

  • Yeah, lots of yummy bugs for our froggy friend.

  • Let's wave a big hello to all

  • of our friends here watching today.

  • Let's hop over this way.

  • Are you ready?

  • Hop, hop, hop, and we'll wave

  • and sing a big hello to everybody watching today.

  • Hello!

  • - Hi Caitie!

  • - Hi, it's Tobee everyone!

  • - Oh, hi everybody.

  • - How are you today, Tobee?

  • - I'm great!

  • Today at the park I saw some kids playing.

  • They were jumping over each other and making ribbit sounds!

  • - Oh, that sounds like leap frog!

  • - Oh, leap frog!

  • Yeah!

  • Oh, it looked like a lot of fun!

  • And then I went to the pond

  • and I saw some frogs making little bubbles.

  • - Oh wow!

  • You know, sometimes frogs will make little bubbles

  • with their mouths just for fun.

  • - Really?

  • I like blowing bubbles too.

  • - Well your trip to the park sounds really great.

  • - It was, but that's not the reason I'm calling.

  • - Oh?

  • - Before I went to the park,

  • I left something fun for you

  • and your friends to play with in the classroom.

  • It's in the green drawer.

  • - Okay, thanks Tobee!

  • I wonder what it could be!

  • - You'll see.

  • I hope you have a froggy good time!

  • - Thanks.

  • - See you later!

  • - Okay, bye Tobee.

  • - Buh bye.

  • - That was so nice of Tobee

  • to leave us something to play with.

  • Let's check the green drawer and see what it is!

  • Which one is the green drawer?

  • This one!

  • Let's see what it is.

  • Lily pads!

  • All different colors!

  • There's green, red, yellow, and blue.

  • Lily pads grow in ponds.

  • I know the perfect place to play with our lily pads!

  • In the discovery bin, whoa.

  • The discovery bin looks like a pond today.

  • It's full of blue water beads.

  • They're really squishy.

  • Lily pads grow in ponds

  • and frogs like to sit on top.

  • It's a great place to catch bugs

  • or to jump and hide underneath to stay safe.

  • Do you see him?

  • I see you little froggy!

  • Do you think there are other frogs

  • hiding in the discovery bin?

  • Maybe.

  • Let's search through and see what we can find!

  • Here we go.

  • Oh I think I see something.

  • Whoa, look at that.

  • A yellow frog.

  • Hi there.

  • Hop.

  • There ya go.

  • There's some frogs in here all right.

  • Let's see what else we can find.

  • Oh, you see this one?

  • That one has some speckles.

  • Hop.

  • There ya go.

  • Let's check this corner here.

  • Oh, this is a big frog.

  • It's a big, red frog.

  • Hop.

  • Big, big hop.

  • Let's try down here.

  • Hmm, where are you froggy?

  • I think I see something.

  • Bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop.

  • It's another green frog.

  • Hop.

  • We found lots of different frogs

  • in all different colors.

  • There's green and red, blue and yellow.

  • Hey, all the same colors of the lily pads

  • that Tobee left us!

  • Let's match the frogs with the same colored lily pad!

  • Let's see.

  • What about this one?

  • The green frog.

  • Do you see the green lily pad?

  • Right here.

  • Here ya go.

  • What about this one?

  • I like its fingers.

  • It's yellow so it goes on the yellow lily pad.

  • Nice job.

  • What about this froggy?

  • It's blue.

  • Do you see the blue lily pad?

  • Right here.

  • Here ya go.

  • And the big, red frog.

  • Do you see the red lily pad?

  • Ta da, that's right.

  • And one more green frog

  • and it goes right here.

  • We did it.

  • Nice work everybody.

  • This frog's gonna hop back in.

  • Great singing everybody.

  • I love that song.

  • It's a great song for practicing counting backwards.

  • Let's count backwards all together.

  • We'll start at five.

  • Can you show five fingers?

  • Here we go.

  • Five, four, three, two, one.

  • Great job.

  • Now let's practice counting up!

  • Oh, how many frogs do you see?

  • Let's count them.

  • I see, one, two!

  • Two frogs!

  • Let's hop two times, one for each frog!

  • Ready?

  • Hop, hop!

  • Nice job everybody.

  • Oh, how many frogs do you see now?

  • I see, one, two, three, four.

  • Four frogs!

  • Let's hop four times!

  • Here we go.

  • Hop, hop, hop, hop!

  • Nice job.

  • Ribbit, ribbit.

  • I feel just like a frog.

  • Oh wow.

  • That's a lot of frogs.

  • I wonder how many there are.

  • Let's count them.

  • One, two, three, four, five, six, seven!

  • Seven frogs, wow.

  • Let's hop seven times!

  • Here we go.

  • Hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop, hop.

  • Phew, that's a lot of hopping and a lot of frogs.

  • Great counting everybody.

  • You're all excellent at counting and hopping.

  • I know another excellent hopper.

  • I'll show you.

  • They're gonna need lots of room though.

  • Let's move this out of the way.

  • Take a look.

  • Ready?

  • Hop.

  • I'll show you how you can make a hopping frog craft

  • like this at home.

  • Let's gather some of the things we need.

  • Some things we need for this craft are

  • a glue stick,

  • googly eyes,

  • paper cups,

  • and a grown-up.

  • To get started, we'll use our paper cups

  • to make the base of our jumping frog

  • and you might need a grown-up to help you with this part.

  • We're gonna make two cuts an inch away from each other

  • about halfway up the cup

  • and the exact same thing from the other side

  • and these cups are perfect because they're green.

  • They're perfect for frogs.

  • Then fold those cuts that you made up the cup like that

  • and take an elastic band, this one's green too,

  • and loop it around one of those flaps.

  • Then take a stapler and staple it in place.

  • Now twist your elastic band to make an X shape like that

  • and loop it around the other flap

  • and this part's a little tricky.

  • Gotta take your stapler and staple that in place too

  • and now we have the base for our jumping frog.

  • It goes on top of the other cup, like that.

  • You pull down and let go.

  • Woo.

  • And it hops.

  • It's all ready to go.

  • All we need is our frog.

  • So to make the body,

  • I cut a perfect circle out of dark green paper

  • and to make the legs, take a lighter green piece of paper

  • and fold it in half

  • and we'll draw a frog leg.

  • It looks like half a heart shape

  • and then three little toes at the bottom, like that.

  • Then, we cut it out and open it up

  • and then cut it in half.

  • So we have two frog legs that are the exact same

  • and we'll glue that on to our frog body.

  • A little bit of glue on either side

  • and we'll stick it on to the circle.

  • That's looking more and more like a frog.

  • And now we can decorate our frog's body.

  • I have a green dotter here,

  • but you could use a crayon or markers.

  • Now it's a speckled frog.

  • And we'll add some eyes to our frog.

  • You can draw some eyes or use googly eyes.

  • It's kind of cute to have the eyes sort of sticking off

  • of the frog's body like that.

  • There we go.

  • Now we'll make a face with a black marker.

  • A nose and a big smile.

  • But it's still missing something.

  • It needs its long, sticky tongue.

  • So I cut a tongue shape out of a red piece of paper

  • and if you twirl it around a pencil like that,

  • it makes it kinda twirly.

  • How neat is that?

  • We'll add some glue.

  • Stick it onto our frog mouth.

  • Ta da.

  • Now our frog is ready to go on the base of our frog craft

  • and I have some double sided tape on here,

  • but you could use glue.

  • Whatever you like to stick it onto the cup just like that.

  • There we go.

  • And our frog is ready to hop.

  • Ready to see our froggy hop?

  • Put it on top of the other cup.

  • We'll push down.

  • Let's count to three.

  • One, two, three!

  • Whoa.

  • Let's try it again!

  • Push down.

  • One, two, three!

  • Hop!

  • That's so much fun.

  • I hope that you make this jumping frog craft at home.

  • It's a lotta fun to play with.

  • All of you are a lot of fun to play with, too!

  • I had a great time playing in the classroom with you today!

  • It's time for us to sing our goodbye song,

  • so let's hop over here.

  • Hop, hop, hop!

  • And we'll wave and sing.

  • ♪ Bye, bye, good bye ♪

  • ♪ Thanks for playin' with me ♪

  • Hop, hop.

  • See ya soon!

  • (upbeat music)

  • - [Child] Woo.
