  • Ooh, there are colors everywhere.

  • You can find lots of colors all around you.

  • Fruits and vegetables are all sorts of colors.

  • Sometimes colors tell us things,

  • like when it's time to stop or go.

  • When you mix colors together, you can make new colors.

  • Blue and yellow mixed together make green.

  • Yellow and red make orange.

  • Red and blue turn into purple when you mix them.

  • And all the colors together make a beautiful rainbow.

  • - There are so many beautiful colors!

  • - Well, I've got some important coloring to do.

  • Catch you later, Elmo.

  • - Bye-bye, Smartie!

  • Elmo has three colors. Red, yellow, and blue.

  • And Elmo wants to paint this pumpkin.

  • - [Children] It's orange. Pumpkins are orange.

  • - [Elmo] Right, pumpkins are orange, like this one.

  • Let's paint this pumpkin to match.

  • - [Child] Let's start with red.

  • - [Children] That's red, like an apple.

  • - [Elmo] What would happen if Elmo adds blue?

  • - [Children] Now mix it. Red and blue make purple.

  • Pumpkins aren't purple, they're orange.

  • - [Elmo] Let's try again.

  • What colors should Elmo try now?

  • - [Children] Yellow and red. Try that.

  • - We did it! Yeah!

  • We used yellow and red to make the color orange

  • and paint our pumpkin.

  • Good job, everybody!

  • Oh, that's not red, Schmoodle, but try again.

  • Bring us something red.

  • - [Child] You can do it!

  • - [Elmo] That's a very nice ball, Schmoodle,

  • and even your fingers to paint on paper

  • or any surface you want.

  • Painting is all about using your imagination.

  • You can paint things you see every day,

  • things in photographs, swirls, shapes,

  • and even yourself.

  • But most importantly, painting is fun.

  • - Wow, thank you for helping Elmo

  • learn more about painting, Smartie!

  • Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.

  • Let's play a game together.

  • Yeah, come on, come on.

  • Elmo wonders which of these tools

  • can we use to paint the rainbow?

  • There's a handprint, a triangle sponge, and a roller.

  • Can we paint the rainbow with the handprint?

  • - [Children] No.

  • - [Child] That's not the right tool.

  • - [Elmo] What about the roller?

  • - [Children] Yeah, the roller!

  • - [Child] That's the right tool.

  • - [Elmo] Yeah, we painted the rainbow with the roller.

  • What about the other pictures?

  • - [Children] The star!

  • - [Child] Try the sponge. It's the right shape.

  • - [Elmo] We use the sponge to paint the star.

  • - [Child] Only one left.

  • - [Children] The handprint.

  • - [Elmo] And we use the handprint to paint the hand.

  • Good painting, everybody.

  • - [Children] Yay! We did it!

  • - Yeah! Boy, there's so many different ways to paint.

  • And that makes Elmo wonder even more.

  • Does Mr. Noodle like to paint?

  • You do? Oh, boy!

  • Show us how you paint, Mr. Noodle.

  • - [Child] Yeah, show us a painting!

  • - [Children] No, that's not painting.

  • - [Child] That's a hairbrush, not a paintbrush.

  • - [Elmo] Try again, Mr. Noodle.

  • No, you need a paintbrush, not a broom!

  • There you go, yeah! Good job.

  • - [Children] You're doing it!

  • - [Child] What's he painting?

  • - [Elmo] Let's see!

  • Oh, wait a minute!

  • Is that supposed to be you, Mr. Noodle?

  • - [Children] That's not Mr. Noodle.

  • - [Elmo] It doesn't really look like Mr. Noodle.

  • You're missing something.

  • - [Child] There he is. That's him, all right.

  • - Bye-bye!

  • Boy, learning new things makes Elmo so happy,

  • it makes him want to dance!

  • Come on!

  • Happy happy dance dance
