[cheerful music playing] Do you know what time it is? It's Tab Time. ♪ Come on inside the room ♪ ♪ Open your heart and mind ♪ ♪ You never know what you find ♪ ♪ When you let A little love inside ♪ ♪ Hey ♪ [all] ♪ Do, do, do Do, do, do, do, do ♪ ♪ Hello, friends of mine ♪ [all] ♪ Do, do, do, do, do ♪ ♪ Come on in, it's Tab Time ♪ [boy] Pets. All right. Well, hello there. I'm Ms. Tab and welcome to my garden. Flying bird seeds, what is going on? Come on, get in there. Holy guacamole, Ms.
Tab. Did I get you? I didn't mean to. It's all right, Avi. Okay? I'm fine. This is Avi the Avocado. -He's one of my best friends. -[Avi the Avocado] Sorry. I was just trying to fill the bird feeder in that tree behind you but it's too hard for me to reach, so I guess the birds will have to find somewhere else to eat. Well, you know, Avi, I can always move you closer if you like. Whoa. [Ms. Tab] All right. There you are. And you know, it's really important to continue to feed the birds once you
start because they'll be looking for you. Oh. Does that make them my pets? Well, no. You see, these birds are wild. So they're more like our friends. -Whoa. -If they were your pets, you would have an extra special responsibility to take care of them. What's a responsibility? Well, responsibility is like a job that you do every day. Kind of like taking a dog for a walk. I guess it would be kind of hard to walk a bird. [chuckles] Exactly. So I think it's best that we let these birds fly free. Whoa
. Can I tell you something that's been on my mind? I can? Very good. You know, I've been thinking a lot about pets and why we have them. You know, some of them make the perfect play partners and they even cuddle with us. Some of them cheer us up when we're sad. And some of them become just like part of our family. But that makes me wonder, how do we know which animals are pets and which are not? -[chiming] -You hear that? That's our friend Breezy the Wind Chime. I think we should go say hello. A
ll right, Avi. Oh. -I will see you later. -Whoa. -Catch you nest time, Ms. Tab. -All right. ♪ Shake my pit, shake my pit ♪ Well, hello there, Breezy. You sure have a beautiful chime. [chiming] What's that, Breezy? It's time to go on a special adventure to find out more about pets? Would you like to go with me? You would? Very good. Now we go there by using our imagination. Do you know what imagination is? Well, it's where we pretend with our minds and our hearts. We can go anywhere and we can cr
eate anything. Now, the first thing we'll create are our imagination shoes. And then we'll wear them on our special adventure, okay? All right, Breezy. I'll see you later. Are you ready? Let's go. [Lenny the Lightning Bug] Whoa. -Wee. -We're in our magic playroom. Let's fill it with our imagination. ♪ Let's move our bodies ♪ ♪ So that we wake up our minds ♪ ♪ What do our imaginations ♪ ♪ Have for us this time? ♪ Let's find out. [singer] ♪ Imagination, my imagination ♪ ♪ Imagination, my im
agination ♪ ♪ Imagination, my imagination ♪ ♪ Is here for you anytime ♪ ♪ Just close your eyes Explore ♪ ♪ Look around, there's more ♪ ♪ See what we'll find ♪ ♪ Because imagination Is here for you anytime ♪ Wow. Look what our imagination took us today. We're on a flying unicorn named Corny. Wee. Oh. I'm okay. Hello there, Lenny. This is one of my best friends Lenny the Lightning Bug. Lenny, meet my new friend Corny. Hello, Lenny. Hey, Ms. Tab. Hi, Corny. Cool wings. How do I get mine spar
kly? Just put a little magic on them. I love it. Wait, I need a horn. We're like twins. You are. [chuckles] Now let's find some animals that might make good pets. Look, Ms. Tab. Fuzzy crayons. -Those are wolves. -Wolves. Let's give them a warm hug. Actually, let's give them some space. Wolves are beautiful but they don't make very good pets. They're wild, which means they need lots of space to roam and run free with their pack. What's a pack? A pack is a group of wolves who are all friends. [Len
ny the Lightning Bug] Whoa. A yeti. [laughs] It's a St. Bernard dog. [Lenny the Lightning Bug] A St. Bernard dog. Thank you for rescuing me, Bernard. That's a good boy, Bernard. Oh, Bernard. That dog helped dig that hiker out of the snow, twice. Dogs make great pets and they can even help us get out of trouble. Incredible. No wonder they call dogs a lightning bug's best friend after batteries. Can we keep exploring? My horn is starting to freeze. Look where we are, Ms. Tab. Inside someone's hair
. A jungle, Lenny. A jungle. Wow, a tiger. Tigers are a very special type of big cat but they don't make very good pets. They're also wild animals and are endangered. What does endangered mean? It means there aren't very many of them, so we have to keep them protected. Ms. Tab, can we keep exploring? There are a lot of mosquitoes in the jungle. And when I get a mosquito bite, my light does a thing. That's the thing. Corny, let's get Lenny out of here. [meowing] Now that type of cat makes a much
better pet than a tiger. It's small enough to live indoors. And probably eats much less fish. Speaking of fish, it's time to set sail for the sea. Ms. Tab, look, water chickens. Those are dolphins, Lenny. Dolphins. Dolphins are smart and beautiful, but they don't make great pets. They need to live in the ocean with lots of space to swim, play, and talk with their dolphin friends. So I said to Marjorie, it says if you take the coupons to the cashier, you'll be able to get a full discount but it's
self checkout. [both] You'll never get the discount. I had no idea that dolphins love a deal. [Blacky barking] [Ms. Tab] Hey. That's my dog Blacky. He's a good dog and makes me very happy. So I invited him to be a part of my family. You know, that makes me wonder. When we invite an animal to become our pet, how do we take care of it so it can stay healthy and happy? -[chiming] -What's that, Breezy? It's time to visit Ms. Tab's Lab? That's a great place to answer our question. All right, Blacky.
You go and play and I'll see you later, okay? Goodbye, Lenny. Goodbye, Corny. -Goodbye, Ms. Tab. -Goodbye, Ms. Tab. Goodbye, Lenny. [upbeat music playing] Well, hello there. I'm Ms. Tab and welcome to my lab. Hello. I am Ranger Rory Roarsabunch. Well, very nice to meet you, Ranger Rory. Can I ask you why you're wiggling? Well, I'm wagging my tail because like a dog, when I'm happy, I wag my tail. But you don't have a tail. Right, which probably makes us look a little silly. Anything you wanna k
now about pets or animals, ask away because I'm your ranger. Oh, well, very good. I do have a question. What is a ranger? A ranger is someone who protects forests and parks and animals who live there. Today, we'll explore how to keep pets and animals healthy and happy in a game called Let's Get Pets Set. I love games. Do you love games? You do? Would you like to play along with us? You would? Very good. Okay. How do we play? Well, I'm gonna show you different animals and all you have to do is
guess the best way to take care of them. Ready for round one? We're ready. Pet-tastic. Our first animal is a guinea pig. Oh my goodness, can I pet it? You can, right behind the ears. They love that. Oh, it's so nice and soft. The question is what do we feed a guinea pig to make it feel happy and strong? Fresh veggies, a chef's hat, or a plate of mom's spaghetti? Hmm, a chef's hat, that's not food, so can't eat that. Fresh veggies, maybe. Mom's spaghetti is something that I would really like to e
at but I'm not quite sure that it's okay for a guinea pig to eat. What do you think? Fresh veggies? Okay. We're gonna say fresh veggies. [Ranger Rory Roarsabunch] That's correct. A guinea pig loves fresh veggies to stay happy and strong, which means... [announcer] This pet is set. Just like your grown-ups wouldn't feed you cat or dog food, as someone who takes care of a pet, you need to know what that pet wants to eat to make sure they feel happy and healthy. Oh. Well, that makes a lot of sense.
Are you ready for round two? -I'm ready. Let's do it. -Pet-tacular. Now our second pet is a lizard. Oh, well, hello there, lizard. He doesn't talk much. -Oh, why is that? -A frog in his throat. Anywho, some lizards live in the wild and some can be pets in your home. But the question is, where should a lizard live -inside your home? -Oh. In the refrigerator, in the bed, in a terrarium with a heat lamp. Well, the lizard is super cute. -So I'm gonna say in the bed. -[buzzer buzzes] [Ranger Rory Ro
arsabunch] Sorry, but that's incorrect. The lizard may appear cuddly enough to sleep in the bed. There's a danger though. You could roll over him. Oh, and that would be very bad. Okay. Well, I will say the refrigerator because there's a lot of food in there. [buzzer buzzes-] -Not right unfortunately. Lizards are something called cold-blooded, which means their blood changes to the temperature of where they are. So if the lizard lives in the refrigerator, it would be very cold and very unhappy. -
Okay. -So the correct answer is the terrarium with the heat lamp. If there's one thing that lizards love, it's being warm and toasty. Well, who doesn't love being warm and toasty? Now it's time for the final round. Get this one correct and you win the game. All right. Well, are you ready? Because I'm ready. Okay. Let's do it. Pets-traordinary. Now all dogs need exercise to feel happy and healthy but the question is what kind of exercise should a dog do? Ride a bicycle, go for a walk, or paint an
abstract picture of me? Well, I really do like to ride bicycles and I like to paint. But I don't think a pet would like that very much. But I do know if I took a dog for a walk, it would make him feel happy and healthy. So I think we all know what the answer is, don't we? Yeah. We're gonna say going for a walk. That's correct. [announcer] This pet is set. Congratulations, Ms. Tab. You won. [announcer] Let's Get Pets Set. You know what, that makes me feel like wagging. -Does that mean I'm happy?
-[laughter] Thank you so much, Ranger Rory, for coming today and teaching us all about pets. Yay. -[chimes] -Oh. That's Breezy. I'm gonna help Ranger Rory clean up. And after that, I'll see you at craft time. [singer] ♪ Hey ♪ ♪ Hey ♪ ♪ Hey ♪ ♪ Hey ♪ [Ms. Tab] Hello, there. -Hi. -How are we doing? -[both] Good. -I'm Ms. Tab. Can you tell me your names and how old you are? I'm Charli and I'm seven. Nice to meet you, Charli. I'm Michael and I'm six. Nice to meet you, Michael. Do either of you h
ave pets? -[Charli and Michael] Yes. -You do? I have snakes. -Oh. -Fish. -Yes. -I have cats and I have chickens. -Do you live on a farm? -No. -Do you live at the zoo? -No. You don't, and you have all those pets? And what about you, what pets do you have? -I have a dog. -What's the dog's name? -Mio. -Mio. What do we love about Mio? I love helping taking him on walks. Oh. And you know, I have a dog too. And I love to take him on walks as well. I think he might like the walks more than Ms. Tab like
them. Do we love to take care of our pets? -[both] Yeah. -[Ms. Tab] All right. The other thing we've been talking about today is what animals are pets and which ones are not, like a zebra or a lion. -Those are not our pets, right? -No. Those are wild animals. I think I have somebody who's gonna help us to make a craft that's all about pets. -Would you like to meet them? -[both] Yes. -DJ Khrafty. -Oh. [both] Hey, DJ Khrafty. Hey, Michael. Hey, Charli. I am so excited for you to meet my new pet S
ticky. -[both] Hi, Sticky. -He's very cute. [Charli] I like how blue you are. Well, very nice to meet you, Sticky, especially today because we've been talking about pets and how to take care of them. DJ Khrafty, do you have a craft that could help us with that? You petter believe it. Today, we're making paper bag pet puppets. Oh, well, that is a great craft, because not everybody can have a pet. And now we can make one of our own. That's right. So to make these, here's what we'll need. Some pap
er lunch bags, construction paper, markers or crayons, scissors, and glue. I'm gonna make a bingo cat. Do you know what a bingo cat is? -[both] No. -So you know how a leopard -has all the spots on it? -Oh, yeah. But that's a wild animal, right? And so we can't have that as a pet. But a bingo cat also has spots on it but we can actually have that as a pet. But Charli, what kind of dog do you have? An Akita. He's so big and he's only two years old. Is he as big as Ms. Tab? Maybe if he jumps ove
r you, yeah. Oh, my goodness. -What about you, Michael? -Axolotl. [Ms. Tab] Can I ask you what that is? It's a salamander, except it's pink -and has gills up here. -Really? I don't know what they look like but as long as you know what they look like, you can make that if you want to. Okay? Very good. So we're gonna make them into pet puppets. Love that. So that we can make them do things. All right. So like that, is that gonna be all right? Yeah. So we have our bags. Whichever color that you lik
e. Which I am making the ears. You can draw or you can cut them out, whatever you like. I'm gonna make a little space here for my cat. -Okay. -My bingo cat. What do we have going on there? -Eyes. -Oh, look at those eyes. That's amazing. -Has anybody seen Sticky? -Oh. Sticky cut off his leash. Where is he? Oh, no. Has anybody seen him? [kids laughs] Oh, my goodness, Sticky. Hey, DJ Khrafty, I think I found him. Sorry, Ms. Tab. He gets really attached to people. That is quite all right, DJ Khrafty
. Okay. So next we're gonna glue on all of our things. Okay. Now I have two floppy ears. -Amazing. -Kind of like a bunny dog. That's a little thing that's on his tail. Oh, that's his tail? You're so creative with that. Ms. Tab, guess what my favorite type of dog is? A boxer. His name is Rocky Bowowa. Well, hello there, Rocky Bowowa. Nice to meet you. All right. I think that we're almost finished. Can you show me your pet puppet? -Yes. -Actually... I made a dog but upside down. Upside down dog. I
love it. A pink upside down dog. You did an amazing job. And let me see, turn the axolotl around, Michael, so we can see. That is the most beautiful axolotl I've ever seen. [both] Look, DJ Khrafty. Wow. That's pet-mazing work. Thank you for crafting with us today, DJ Khrafty. And you too, Sticky. And hey, be nice to Rocky. You two have to stick together. -Okay? -Petter believe it. [both] Bye, DJ Khrafty. Bye, little Sticky. Peace, Michael. Peace out, Charli. DJ Khrafty, you're welcome. -[chimes
] -Oh, that's Breezy. After I clean up, I'll see you at snack time. It's snack time. Don't forget to wash your hands. ♪ It's snack time It's snack time ♪ ♪ Let's make something tasty For snack time ♪ ♪ It's snack time ♪ ♪ Everybody, it's snack time ♪ ♪ Come on ♪ Well, hello there, Burnie and Starla. [both] Hi, Ms. Tab. So what is shaking with the shakers? Oh, they're our pets. This is Sal the salt. And this is... Ooh, let me guess. Pep the pepper? -Nope. Gina. -Oh, well, very nice to meet
you, Gina and Sal. We're training our pets. Wanna see? Of course. Sal, stand there and do nothing in a very safe way. Look, he did it. Good boy, Sal. [chuckles] You know, I'm so happy that both of you have pets, because that's what we've been talking about today. I've been thinking about how we invite pets into our home and make them like part of our family. So I have the perfect snack for us today. We're going to make pawsome pet pads on a plate. Hmm, sounds fluffy. I'll need a lint roller. Let
's get into it. [chuckles] Okay. We have some sliced grapes, pretzel sticks, some dried cranberries, raisins, blueberries, and then we have half grapes there. -Yummy. -[Ms. Tab] Okay. And then we also have some strawberries, pretzels in a square, coconut shavings, more strawberries, and kiwi. Let's do it. And we're making pets, so we're gonna do a dog and a cat. So first thing is we're gonna take a cracker. All right. We'll get a little bit of our almond butter. Spread it on there. Now, we're ma
king a dog first, so we need the dog ears. So like that. Okay. Then we're gonna top it off so your ears are hanging out enough. Yummy. We need eyes right there with your grape. We got to make sure he can see. Put a little bit more almond butter right there. Some more almond butter. It's holding everything together like glue. This is the glue you can eat. -Wow. -[Ms. Tab laughs] Now we need to put a tongue using the sliced strawberry, because you know how dogs go like that sometimes or... Uh-hmm.
Let's put our snout on with one of our sliced grapes and then nostrils to breathe out of, so we'll put a little bit more almond butter on a cranberry right on top. Look at that dog. That's when we'll use our coconut shavings. Look at that head. Very good. So we have our dog. Don't let them bite you, all right? [laughs] Okay. So next up, we gotta make our cat. Get you a cracker again. Go ahead and put our almond butter. So we're gonna use kiwi to make sure they stand up. Okay. Get you another cr
acker, put it on top. Look at those cat ears. I'm getting hungry. Use some blueberries. Put that on there. Another one. Now remember, we're making a cat. So what does the cat need? Did you say whiskers? You got it. All right. Let's get us a little bit of almond butter and we're gonna take the pretzel sticks that we have and we're gonna make our whiskers. Okay. Sal and I like to hang out on the couch and watch our favorite show, the Glove Boat. -Aw. -Okay. Here we go. Here's a dog. Starla, here i
s the cat. Here you go. [Starla The Spatula] Yum. Hmm, that was doggone delicious. -[chiming] -Oh, do you hear that? That's Breezy. She says it's Story Time. All right, Burnie and Starla, I'll see you later. [both] Bye, Ms. Tab. Okay. Well, now it's time to tell the story of our day. But first, I need to find my friend Lovey. You remember her, right? She looks like a glowing heart. Would you help me find her? You would? Thank you. Okay. Well, do you see her anywhere? She is? Under this table? We
ll, you're right. Hello there, Lovey. Would you like to join us for Story Time? You know, the wonderful thing about Lovey is that she always knows how I'm feeling. As my feelings change, Lovey's colors change too. Like right now, I'm feeling happy to be here with you at Story Time. So Lovey is green for happiness. Let's get started. Okay. So today in the garden, Avi and I got curious about all the different types of animals there are and what makes an animal a pet. And you see, Lovey is orange
for curiosity. And then we went on a special adventure and met all kinds of animals. Some of them make great pets but some of them were much happier living in the wild. Later in the lab, we met Ranger Rory Roarsabunch. And we played a game that showed us all about how we can take care of pets. I even got a little bit frustrated when I kept guessing wrong about how to take care of the lizard. And you see, Lovey is red for frustration. But I still learned so much today, like ho
w it's always our responsibility to take care of the pets that live at home with us. And sometimes we can even take care of the animals that live outside and that are just visiting. When we help keep animals healthy and happy, it brings them love and joy, just like family and friends. Blacky, you remember him from special adventures, don't you? Of course you do. He loves when I pet him and I love it too. It makes us both feel happy and relaxed. You see that? That's why Lovey is green, for hap
piness. How do you feel when you think about pets? Well, however you feel is the right way to feel, because those are your feelings and they matter. You know, sometimes you can even feel all different feelings at once and that's okay too. That's right, Lovey. -[chimes] -Oh, that's Breezy. She's saying it's time to say goodbye. ♪ Thank you for This time today ♪ ♪ The friends we've made ♪ ♪ The food we ate ♪ ♪ The stories and imagining ♪ ♪ So glad we had This time with you today ♪ I've had
the best time with you all today. You are amazing. So amazing that I think you should give yourself a big ol' hug. I'll give Blacky one too. Doesn't that feel good? ♪ So glad we had This time with you today ♪ Well, I think that Blacky is ready to go out in the garden and play with Avi. And I'm gonna tell Avi all about our special adventures. And you can tell your family and friends at home too.

sing up nobody else's, all right? I love you and I'll see you soon. All right, Blacky. Let's go.
