Bear
[after the word "Discovery" appears] Do you know what letter "Discovery" begins with? [a cartoon magnifying glass appears] "D"! That's right! A discovery is something that you never knew about before. And there are lots of ways to discover things. Like... Folks dug up bones from the ground and discovered dinosaurs. [animated bones appear, forming the shape of a dinosaur] And if you use a telescope, you can see things far, far away and you might discover a new star or planet. [an animated telescope appears, along with a group of stars] And if you look hard enough at the ground, you might discover a new bug no one's seen before. [an animated bug appears in front of him] But, you don't need to discover a new star or a planet or a dinosaur to make a discovery. If something is new to you, that is a discovery!
[the word "Smells" appears with six yellow letters]
Bear
Smells. Mm-hmm. And you use your nose to sniff smells. Sweet smells, like honey. [an animated honeypot appears] Honey. Then there are some smells that are kind of sour from food that should have been thrown away! [an animated ham appears]
[This causes the ham to rot. Bear waves his hand around the ham.]
Bear
And then there are some spicy smells that tickle your nose and make you sneeze, like pepper! [an animated pepper shaker appears]
[The pepper shaker releases little pieces in front of him. This causes Bear to sneeze. The pepper shaker slides away and the entire kitchen shakes like an earthquake.]
Bear
See. Smells are everywhere and they're with us all day long.
Ooo, it's definitely in here. [sniffs the books on the shelves] That's sweet but that's not it. [sniffs something else] It's definitely getting stronger over here.
[to the viewer] Wow. That is one little bear cub that is ready to wait. Say, have you ever had to wait for anything? Yeah. Wait.
[He begins to say "wait", but the word didn't appear]
Bear
Ahem. [the word "wait" appears] Wait. Yeah. We all have to wait but it's just a part of life. Even though sometimes it can be really hard to wait for things. [the word disappears] Like, for example, when you have to wait your turn to ride the carousel.
[Two animated carousel horses passes Bear]
Bear
Or when you have to wait for the cookies to bake. [an animated oven appears] Mmm. I can taste them already. [he taps his lips and the oven disappears] Or when you have to wait till you're a little older to have your next birthday. Now that's something worth waiting for.
[Animated balloons, presents and streamers rises]
Bear
See. No matter who you are or what you want, sooner or later, we all just have to wait.
[the word "Morning" appears, along with the Sun disguised as the letter O] "Morning". Do you know what letter "Morning" starts with? That one right there? "M"? That's right. "Morning". The morning starts when the sun rises! [the animated sun moves away from him] And when you wake up rested after a good night's sleep. [an animated windowsill and bed appear, the crescent moon sinks and sun rises] And you stretch and go to the bathroom. [an animated toilet appears] Or your Mom and Dad might give you a diaper change. [the animated diaper from "When You've Got to Go!" appears also] And then you have breakfast. [an animated plate appears with pancakes, along with utensils] And get dressed and go do all the fun things that you wanna do. [animated clothes appear, forming a human making it look like it's walking]
[confusing, unable to tell what that smell is] That word is a fruit. You know, the fruit that's red on the inside and white on the inside. It grows on apple trees. What's the word? [gets the idea] Apple? That's right! Apple!
[an animated apple appears]
Bear
[as the world "Apple" appears] "Apple" is a word that begins with "A".
By the way, if you ever need to do or see something that needs to be plugged in, why don't you get a grown up to plug it in for you and turn it on; okay?
[about the word "Interactive" with 11 yellow letters] Wow, that's a big word. In-ter-ac-tive. But we interact every day. When you say or do something, and someone or something says or does something back to you, that's interactive. For example, when you throw a ball [an animated ball appears with two human hands] and someone catches it and throws it back, that's interactive. [an animated flower appears] Or... when you give your grandma a flower and she smiles... that's interactive! And, well, let's see, [thinks for a moment] what else is interactive? [gets an idea] Hey, I know! Something I love to do is very interactive! Dancing! When you dance with someone, you're interacting! How about I teach you the Bear Cha-Cha-Cha? Would you like to learn and dance with me? Great! Stand up! It's not hard, and I'll show you how to do it! Watch me and then you do it. Now, first you stamp your feet... [stamps feet] Stamp them again. [stamps feet] That's great! Now throw your head back! [he does this] And stamp your feet again! [stamps feet again] One more time! [stamps feet another time] Now, spread your legs, and wiggle them! Put them together. And stamp your feet again... [stamps his feet] One more time! Now wiggle and spin. [whistles] And Bears love a big finish, so I want you to pose and say Cha Cha Cha with me. Okay? Now you try! Stamp your feet and pose!
[about the word "Thanksgiving" he loved] It's a big word and a special day for being, well, thankful. It's a day you get together with your family and friends and make a wonderful meal! [a table with Thanksgiving food appears, passing him by] It's a way of celebrating everything you have like a happy home [an animated house appears along with the Sun] full of people who care about you! There's a lot to be thankful for. And Thanksgiving is the perfect day to think about them.
You're not mistaken, Luna. See, I was expecting a storybook in the mail, but I got. Doc Hogg's cookbook instead. But Jeremiah finally brought the new book.
