Speaker 3: Oh hello Billy.
Speaker 1: We're going attic hunting. Wanna come attic hunting?

Speaker 3: by the Lingo Kids, where we discover fascinating facts about
Speaker 3: the world around us and the fun of play learning.
Speaker 3: Today we're thinking about imagination and creativity and whether there
Speaker 3: are little tricks we can use to spark new ideas.
Speaker 3: Let's get back to the story and see if Lisa
Speaker 3: really needs.
Speaker 1: An imagination hat.
Speaker 3: When that Billy says he's heard about a magic hat
Speaker 3: in the attic that helps create ideas.
Speaker 4: But you're too busy finishing your painting. We understand it's
Speaker 4: gonna be a masterpiece.
Speaker 1: See Elisa, Wait, no, I could come with you.
Speaker 3: I can put down the paintbrush for a while since
Speaker 3: I haven't picked it up yet.
Speaker 1: Great, let's go at a hunting Wow, it's pretty dusty
Speaker 1: up here. Billy. Look a poko stick. Oh, look at
Speaker 1: this old lamp.
Speaker 4: And this you have armored. This is awesome, Lissa, come
Speaker 4: chuck this stuff out right.
Speaker 3: Hey, Billy, do you know where that imagination hat might be?
Speaker 1: Billy says it's right there.
Speaker 3: But Billy, you just grabbed the first hat you saw.
Speaker 3: Billy says, that's definitely the imagination hat.
Speaker 1: He wants you to try it on, Lisa.
Speaker 3: But if you say so, hmm, I got sure I
Speaker 3: really feel any different.
Speaker 2: If I do find some treasure, I could I use
Speaker 2: it to put on a tramling show, use it dancing juggling,
Speaker 2: tightrope logging.
Speaker 1: Should I start my own circus? Oh? A circus would
Speaker 1: be fun. Callie. Wait, why did you say that?
Speaker 3: You were just talking about what you do if you
Speaker 3: found some treasure, Lisa, I wasn't talking.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she hasn't said anything for a minute or two.
Speaker 1: But I just heard. Oh, never mind.
Speaker 4: I hope Lisa's okay. She seems a bit stressed today.
Speaker 4: Can I hope I can find some cool old books?
Speaker 4: Can I wonder if there's any good spots.
Speaker 3: For nap.
Speaker 1: Nat? I'm already Elliott.
Speaker 4: Hmm, I'm not tired.
Speaker 1: But you just said hang on or you're not talking either? Nope?
Speaker 4: Are you feeling okay?
Speaker 1: What's going on? It's like I'm able to hear everyone's thoughts.
Speaker 1: But that's impossible, right.
Speaker 3: So of course it is okay it Maybe I'll just
Speaker 3: look towards Billy. I won't be able to hear his thoughts.
Speaker 3: Billy says he figured you could use a spark of creativity.
Speaker 1: Lisa, Billy, you're a life saber. Wait, what's going on?
Speaker 1: The imagination hat? Every it works? H that old hat?
Speaker 1: Your word? Yes, I can hear everyone's thoughts.
Speaker 4: She can't hear my thoughts.
Speaker 2: I just heard that maybe she's just hungry at that.
Speaker 1: Billy, You've done it.
Speaker 3: This has given me I a great idea. Billy says
Speaker 3: he knew it would help you. Lisa, do you have
Speaker 3: any paper and paints?
Speaker 1: But wait?
Speaker 4: Can someone tell me what's going on?
Speaker 1: Hot kill? Really do that?
Speaker 4: Can't it?
Speaker 3: You're probably right, elliot, but Billy gon't be thinking that
Speaker 3: an imagination had existed. I don't know if it's true
Speaker 3: or not, but it helped me with the idea. Before that,
Speaker 3: I really didn't know what to paint.
Speaker 4: Wait, you didn't have any ideas before, but you always
Speaker 4: have ideas, Lisa.
Speaker 3: It seems like that may have been part of the problem.
Speaker 1: Lisa.
Speaker 3: You've always felt creative, so when you felt like you
Speaker 3: were out of ideas, you got stressed out. Billy's idea
Speaker 3: about the imagination hat took the stress away. Yes, and
Speaker 3: now I've done the best idea?
Speaker 1: Well show us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we can't wait see it. You'll just have to
Speaker 3: wait until the art fair tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Hello.
Speaker 1: There, I'm Judge Thompson and what would your name be?
Speaker 4: I'm Lisa and could you tell us about your painting please?
Speaker 3: Well, I've drawn three of my friends Elliot, Callie and
Speaker 3: Billy wonderful. And it's a very unique style you've created. Yes,
Speaker 3: I used three different painting styles to capture the differences
Speaker 3: in my friends. For Elliot, I've done a classic realistic style.
Speaker 3: It's natural, careful and thoughtful, just like him. I see
Speaker 3: cows picture in a fun, colorful painting style because she's
Speaker 3: full of energy, super fun.
Speaker 1: And a little wild, brilliant.
Speaker 3: And for Billy, I painted him with sharp legs and
Speaker 3: even spacing. Its precise and with a lot of different
Speaker 3: pieces that all know how to fit together.
Speaker 4: This is incredibly creative work, Lisa, How did you come
Speaker 4: up with a concept like this?
Speaker 1: Well, I tried.
Speaker 3: To picture what my friends would think inside their own
Speaker 3: heads then use that to inspire me.
Speaker 1: All it took was a little imagination. Well that's a
Speaker 1: wrap on this episode. Today, we learned that.
Speaker 3: It isn't always easy to come up with ideas, and
Speaker 3: sometimes the best way to come up with one is
Speaker 3: to do something.
Speaker 1: A little bit different.
Speaker 3: Take a walk, listen to a song, or think of
Speaker 3: how a friend might solve the problem. This takes us
Speaker 3: outside of ourselves and into endless possibilities.
Speaker 1: We hope you keep imagining too. We'll see you next time.
