1 00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:06,400 Speaker 1: Hmm, there's someone at the door. Oh, it's a package delivery. 2 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 1: Let's have a look at what's inside. Ah. Welcome to 3 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,439 Speaker 1: Storytime by Lingo Kids, where we discover fascinating facts about 4 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 1: the world around us and the fun of play learning. 5 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,320 Speaker 1: Today we are going to learn about shapes, and it 6 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: is shaping up very well. Shapes are everywhere around us. 7 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: In fact, every object that you see has a shape. Oh, 8 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: I forgot about my package. Let's unwrap it and see 9 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: what we've got. Oh. Look, it arrived in a box. 10 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: Any ideas what we call the shape of a box. 11 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: It's not a square, Billy, but a cube. Do you 12 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: want to know what's inside this cube? Or I mean 13 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: this box? Yes, so do I. It's a soccer ball 14 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,199 Speaker 1: in the shape of a sphere or a lucky day. 15 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: I have an idea. Let's take the soccer ball and 16 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: go for a walk. Maybe we can spot other shapes 17 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood. Let's get blue. Look, here is our 18 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: neighbor Sam drinking a glass of water with that's right, Billy. 19 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: With ice cubes and they are also in the shape 20 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: of a cube. All of a cube's sides are equal, 21 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: and you can stack them up as you do with 22 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: building blocks. Those are cubes too. Oh. Look, here is 23 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: my neighbor Amy taking her groceries out of the car, 24 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: and she's got a box of cereal. Do you think 25 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: it's a cube? You are right, billy. Although it looks 26 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: like a cube, it is not a cube. It has 27 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: sides that are longer than the others. This shape is 28 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: called a cuboid. Okay, Elliot, pass me the ball. Nice kick, buddy. 29 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: Remember we said that the ball is in the shape 30 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: of a sphere. Yes, it's round and it rules. Now 31 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: can you see other spear shaped objects? What about this 32 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: bag of oranges? Yes, you are right, elliot. Ooh, don't 33 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: look now, but there's an ice cream truck coming. I 34 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: love ice cream. I do too, elliot, and I love 35 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: having my ice cream in a cone. Yummy. A cone 36 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: is actually a shape as well. It has a smooth 37 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: and curved body. One end is wide and flat, while 38 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: the other end is pointy, like an ice cream cone 39 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: or a party hat. That's right here. There's a bonus question, Lingo, 40 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: kids listeners, what shape is the ball of ice cream 41 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: on top of an ice cream cone? Uh? A sphere? Correct, Elliot, 42 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: you nailed it. It's a sphere too. As you can see, 43 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: some objects can be made up of more than one shape. 44 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: Here is a task for you. Look around and find 45 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: as many shapes as you can. A house almost like 46 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: a cube, trees almost like cons yes, Philly, a road 47 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: sign shaped like a triangle, but it's different from the 48 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: others we've been talking about. Do you know why? You're right? 49 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: A triangle is completely flat, and the other shapes are 50 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: not cubes, cuboids, and cones. They're all solid and not 51 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: flat like pancakes. There are other flat shapes that you've 52 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: probably heard of before, like circles, squares, and rectangles. What 53 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: do you think makes them flat? Billy? You got it. 54 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: With a flat object, you can't measure its height. Think 55 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: about this. Some of us are taller than others, and 56 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: some of us are shorter, but none of us are 57 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: completely flat. That would be funny. Aren't you glad we're 58 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: solid like spears and cubes and not flat like circles 59 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: and squares. Yeah, alright, lingo kids listeners, learning about shapes 60 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: is fun, But we better make use of this soccer 61 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: ball and play as we're outside.
