1
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Tomorrow is my friend Cindia's birthday, and I want to

2
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: make her painting. What are you going to paint? That's

3
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: just it. I look at this piece of paper and

4
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: Anne want I have no idea. Maybe we can help Lisa.

5
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to Stories for Kids by Lingo Kids, where we

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: discover fascinating facts about the world around us and the

7
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: fun of play learning. Lingo Kids listeners, let's help Lisa

8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,639
Speaker 1: figure out what she can paint to make her birthday

9
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: gift a guaranteed hit. Yeah, Lingo Kids listeners will be

10
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,599
Speaker 1: getting a little messy in this episode. If you are

11
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: listening at home, you could follow along and draw or

12
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: paint with us. When painting, be sure to cover the

13
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: table with newspaper to catch any drips, and wear an

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: overall so clothes stay clean. If you want to join

15
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: in and do a painting too, ask a grown up

16
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: for help. Okay, let's help Lisa with her painting. I

17
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: need some ideas.

18
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 2: I'm not so good at painting a picture of myself, Billy.

19
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: What does Cynthia like?

20
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 2: She likes math. Maybe a painting is a dumb idea.

21
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: Doing something nice for someone is never a dumb idea.

22
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: Don't give up, Lisa, Hey, you know what might be

23
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: fun abstract art? What's that? It's art that doesn't look

24
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: like a person or a thing. And since Cynthia the

25
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: frog likes math, we can use geometry. What kind of

26
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: tree is that? Not a tree? Geometry is about shapes

27
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: like circles and squares and triangles. What about red tangles?

28
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: Sure you could use any of those. You can be

29
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: like the Dutch painter Peter Moudrion. He would squint his

30
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: eyes to see the world as basic shapes. We can

31
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: dry it. Squint and look around. Do you see geometric shapes?

32
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: I do.

33
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 2: The chair is a square, the sofa is a rectangle,

34
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: the table is a circle.

35
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 1: You got the idea. Moudrion used thick black lines to

36
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: make squares and rectangles of different sizes. What do you think, Lisa,

37
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: I am a big black marker. I could use it

38
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: to draw Cynthia's home. Oh yeah, she lives in a

39
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: little glass terrarium. There's a small log, a rock, a

40
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: bowl of water, and a plant growing inside. Let's squint

41
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: and notice what shapes we see? Well, the terrarium is

42
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: a square. Okay, use your black marker to make a

43
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 1: big square. On your paper, right, Billy, the log could

44
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: be a long rectangle near the bottom of the square. Okay,

45
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: I did that.

46
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: The water bowl is a big circle, the rock is

47
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: a small one.

48
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: I'm on it.

49
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: I'll add a big circle to the middle of the

50
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: square and a small.

51
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: Circle to the right. That looks great, Lisa.

52
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: The only thing left is a plant growing on the left.

53
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: When I squint, the leaves look like triangles.

54
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: Sounds right to me. How about four triangles along the

55
00:03:49,400 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: left side of the square? One? Two, three four?

56
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: I love it, but I wish I had more colors.

57
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: I only have red, yellow, and blue. Paint. We can

58
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: make orange, green, and purple, Lisa, try mixing red and yellow. Okay,

59
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 1: some red and a little yellow. I made orange. Cowie,

60
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:36,799
Speaker 1: try blue and yellow, blue and yellow. Make grease. Dear Elliott,

61
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: try red.

62
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: And blue, red and blue, make purple.

63
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: We have a rainbow of colors. Let's paint the leaves,

64
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: I mean triangles.

65
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: Cowie, you paint too green, and I'll paint too yellow.

66
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: Super What color should the long rectangle be? Is it

67
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: okay to make the love for a bull? Sure? Remember

68
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: abstract art doesn't match the real world.

69
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: Elliot, can you paint that one purple Laga rectangle coming up.

70
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: The ball is a red circle with blue in the

71
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: middle of the water. Billy want to dry and I'll

72
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: paid the small circle orange.

73
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: Nice teamwork. Everyone idiot's going to love it. Combining geometry

74
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: and art adds up to a whole lot of fun.

75
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: Lingo Kids Listeners, we had a great time today painting

76
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: abstract art with Lisa. We learned how to make orange,

77
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: green and purple by mixing colors. Lingo Kids Listeners, If

78
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: you made a piece of geometric art, you can ask

79
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,480
Speaker 1: a grown up to help take some pictures and send

80
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: them to us. We can share on our social media.

81
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,640
