1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:08,600
Speaker 1: It's summertime, which means lots of fun in the pool.

2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: I have a question for you. What if you are

3
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 1: really good at swimming, but your friend is more comfortable

4
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,639
Speaker 1: in the shallow end of the pool. What would you do?

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: How would you treat your friend? Welcome to story Time

6
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: by Lingo Kids, where we discover fascinating facts about the

7
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: world around us and the fun of play learning. Join

8
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: us at the pool, where we learn how to be

9
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 1: a good friend and encourage others.

10
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: Come on in the pool, everybody, let's play sharps and minnows.

11
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 3: I want to play. I'm scared as a deep end

12
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 3: of a pool. Don't be silly, Elliot.

13
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: It's jacked water. A lot of people, pople are afraid

14
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: of swimming, Lisa. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Learning

15
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: to swim can be scary.

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 3: Swimming is hard.

17
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: Yes, learning to swim can be hard to you don't

18
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: like getting your head wet, Humbilly, I don't blame you.

19
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: So Lisa's a really good swimmer, and Elliott, Cowie and

20
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: Billy are all learning. That's great.

21
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: That is not great. Lisa can do it, but we can't.

22
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: Everyone is different, Elliot. We're all good at some things

23
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: and other things we're not so good at, but we

24
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: can learn to become better.

25
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 2: I'm good at art, but I'm not good at bouncing

26
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:45,559
Speaker 2: on one leg.

27
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: I'm good at playing blocks, but I'm not good at

28
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: playing violin yet.

29
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: Yes, Billy, your ex at making inventions, but you're still

30
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: working on learning to bake chocolate chip cookies. Oh no,

31
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: your last batch of cookies tasted like super stinky slimeballs.

32
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Lingo kids, listeners, can you think of some things that

33
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 1: you're really good at and other things that you're still

34
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 1: working on? I'm sure you all came up with a

35
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: good list. Lisa, we didn't hear from you yet. What

36
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: are you good at and what things are you still

37
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: working on?

38
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: I'm good at swimming, and I'm working on getting my

39
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 2: friends to get in the pool and play sharks and

40
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: minnows with me.

41
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: They're acting like babies.

42
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 3: Hey, I'm not a baby, me neither. I just can't

43
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 3: swim and the deepened.

44
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: Yet, Lisa. I can tell you're feeling impatient, but there's

45
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: no excuse for name calling. Name calling hurts your friend's feelings.

46
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Picture everyone having a bucket, and the more full people's

47
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: buckets are, the better. They feel buckets.

48
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: But I don't have a bucket.

49
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: They are just imaginary buckets Lisa, Okay.

50
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: I get it.

51
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 2: And full buckets mean that people are full of good feelings,

52
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 2: they feel happy.

53
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: Yes, how do you think calling people names makes them feel?

54
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: It makes them feel sad?

55
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: That's right, It empties their bucket?

56
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: What can I do to fill their bucket back up?

57
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: You can start with a very important word Lingo, kids listeners,

58
00:03:49,840 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: can you guess what that word is?

59
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: Is it sorry?

60
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: Yes? Saying sorry is a good start to filling back

61
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: up your friend's buckets?

62
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 3: What else can I do?

63
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: How about offering some understanding and encouraging words to your friends?

64
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 2: Elliott Cawie, Billy, I'm sorry. Swimming can be hard, especially

65
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 2: at first, but I know you can't do it.

66
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: Maybe I can help. Wonderful you changed from being impatient

67
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: and making fun of your friends to saying encouraging words,

68
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: and even better, you offered to help them out. How

69
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: does that make your friends feel?

70
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 3: Really good? Lisa, you are filling up my bucket?

71
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: See Lisa, look at how your words and actions can

72
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: be used to fill up your friend's buckets. Wow, and

73
00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: guess what I think I found a secret Oh, what's that, Lisa.

74
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: I think my bucket is getting killed up too.

75
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: That's very interesting, Lisa. Why do you think that is?

76
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 3: It feels better.

77
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: To help my friends than it does to feel like

78
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 2: I'm better than them. It makes it so we're all

79
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: on the same team.

80
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: Go team.

81
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: But now I'm not on your team because I'm the

82
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: shark and all of you are the minnows.

83
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 3: But I still can't go to the deep end, not yet.

84
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 1: At least that's okay.

85
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: Let's stay in the shallow end and one day I'll

86
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: help you learn to swim in the deep end too.

87
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 3: Hooray that you can't catch me.

88
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: I got to get here.

89
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,720

92
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: and filling up buckets can be a useful metaphor to

94
