Halo ladies and gentlemen.
It’s summertime again in
the northern hemisphere!
There will be
no more school and
no more homework,
so we will have
a LOT of time
doing EVERYTHING
we want to do.
Wouldn’t that be just great?
So, what’s your plan
for summer vacation?
I’m-a chillin’ by the lake
With my buddies
and my pet
I think
I’ll jump into the water
and I’ll get myself all wet
‘Cause it’s vacation time
I’m on vacation time
It’s a time we all enjoy
Every adult, girl and boy
It’s vacation time
All the ducks and geese
are playin’
And the birds are flyin’ high
Everybody’s happy,
as the summer passes by
‘Cause it’s vacation time
I’m on vacation time
It’s a time we take a rest
Or do the things
we like the best
It’s vacation time
Long long ago,
in Australia, our most
ancient ancestors told
the Stories of Dreamtime.
Stories of Dreamtime are
about the creations
of our Earth, people,
plants and animals.
They told these stories
by making dot paintings.
Today, we will learn
how to create
our own dot paintings
just like the Aborigines
of Australia did
thousands of years ago.
Halo!
Halo, I’m here
with my friends today,
because we’re going
to do a very good
environmental activity
for children.
Do you know what an
environmental activity is?
No.
One that doesn’t hurt
the environment.
We’re coming to you
from Brisbane, Australia.
And today,
we’re going to do
some Aboriginal painting,
using natural resources.
Natural resources are
things from nature,
so we’re going to go and
find things from nature
to do our painting with.
We’re not going to
use paintbrushes today.
Are we going
to use our fingers?
Oh, our fingers!
No, we’re going
to use natural resources,
things from nature,
we’re going to use sticks!
We’re going to go
looking for some sticks,
and we have found some
recycled paper today.
We have drawn our hand
on the paper.
We’re going to be
doing some dot painting
using natural resources,
sticks and leaves
and…ha! Look Gabe!
What did we do? Ahh!
We didn’t use containers,
we used the leaves.
We didn’t use containers,
we used leaves.
We found some leaves,
and we put our paint
on the leaves
and we’re going to
dip our sticks in the paint
on the leaves and
do some dot painting.
Where are the sticks?
We have to go
and find them in
the Australian Outback.
I know
where we can get sticks!
Do you? Can you help us?
Right up the top.
Up the top.
We’re going to go
and find some sticks.
So, we’ll see you
in a minute. Okay.
What you have to find
is a little stick.
Ha! Look,
this is a really good one,
this is a good one that
you can use for painting.
You need more than one.
You need maybe three.
Three little sticks each
is a good idea.
Seanne,
would you like one of mine?
I’ll share mine with you.
Ok more, come on!
Excellent, let’s go!
Very good, excellent.
Hold on to that.
Okay, now
we are going to go back.
Are you ready? (Yes!)
Everybody got sticks?
(Yes!) Let’s go back
and now we have to go
and paint our hands with
Aboriginal dot painting.
Aboriginal people
from Australia,
they are famous
for their dot paintings.
So today, we’re going
to use our sticks
just like they do
and use them
to dot paint on our paper,
and make a design
on our hands.
Can you all dot?
Use your sticks and
put some beautiful paint
on the end like this
and dot, dot, dot.
And you can do
a beautiful design
on your hands.
Let’s get painting!
I’m doing different colors.
You’re doing
different colors!
That’s beautiful!
Very, very good.
Me too,
I’m doing different colors.
Now on our paintings
today, we’re going
to write something.
Do you know
what we’re going to write?
(What?) We’re going
to write one wish that
we have for the world.
(A real one?)
A real, real, really, really
real and true wish that
you have for the world.
Renata!
Ah, wow, it’s beautiful!
How’s everybody going
with their dotting?
We’re coloring in,
very good.
Next, we will take a look
at our friends’ dot paintings
and hear their wishes
for the world!
So keep your dial tuned here
to Supreme Master
Television.
We’ll be right back.
We’ve been working
oh so hard
Every day we go to school
But vacation is a time
where having fun’s
the only rule
‘Cause it’s vacation time
I’m on vacation time
We’re going
to have a little fun
Soak up a little sun
It’s vacation time
Welcome back to
Enlightening Entertainment.
Renata and other children
have just finished their
Aboriginal dot paintings
and they are going to
show us their masterpieces.
But before that,
let’s sing a song with them
– an Australian song!
Okay, so,
before we show you our
beautiful paintings today,
we’re going to do
a little song with some
Aboriginal actions in it.
Are you ready everybody?
When I sing eucalyptus,
what you are going to do?
Eu-ca-lyp-tus,
Eu-ca-lyp-tus!
When I sing cockatoo,
what you are going to do?
Cock-a-too, Cock-a-too!
When I sing wallabies
and wombats,
what are you going to do?
Wallabies and wombats,
wallabies and wombats,
very good.
Now when I sing kangaroo,
it’s not
a jumping kangaroo.
It’s using your hands.
Show me how you do it.
Kang-a-roo, Kang-a-roo.
Eu-ca-lyptus
Eu-ca-lyptus
Cock-a-too
Wave your wings
Cock-a-too
Wallabies and wombats
Wallabies and wombats
Kang-a-roo
Kang-a-roo
These are all things from
our country, Australia.
This time
we’re going to go,
really, really, really.
(Loud!) Fast and loud!
Eu-ca-lyptus
Eu-ca-lyptus
Cock-a-too
Cock-a-too
Wallabies and wombats
Wallabies and wombats
Kang-a-roo
Kang-a-roo
Wallabies and wombats
Wallabies and wombats
Eu-ca-lyptus
Eu-ca-lyptus
Kang-a-roo
Kang-a-roo
Cock-a-too
Cock-a-too
How about we go
and get our painting
and show everybody
our one wish for the world?
Let’s go
and get our paintings.
So now we have finished
our aboriginal dot painting.
We’ve used
natural resources.
What have we used,
what’s this one called.
Paint!
Paint and?
Leaves.
Leaves and sticks, yes.
The Aboriginal people,
when they used paint,
do you know
what they used to do?
(What?)
What did they do?
They used to rub two…?
(Rocks.) Yes!
They used to
rub two rocks together
and get the powder
and then
put a little bit of water
and use paint,
but today we had to
use some water paint.
So we have all done
a beautiful dot painting.
Everybody hold up
your paintings!
Aren’t they beautiful!
On our paintings today,
we have written
our one special wish
for the world.
So I might ask Seanne first.
It’s Seanne turn.
Seanne,
what is your special wish
for the world?
Looking after pets.
That’s a nice one,
looking after pets nicely.
And Angel,
what’s your wish
for the world?
Everyone goes to
a fun house a week.
Everyone goes to
a fun house every week.
That sounds like
a great idea!
Look.
This is Gabe’s painting
with sticks and
he says that his one wish
for the world is?
(Cookies!) Cookies
and for everyone to…?
Share!
To share!
Yeah, that’s a great wish.
Well done, very good.
Arianna,
what’s your special wish
for the world?
My wish for the world is
so that everyone
could be vegan
so that the world can live
for longer.
Wow, that’s a great wish,
everyone to go vegan.
I like that wish.
So, at your house
maybe you can do a nice
environmental activity.
Maybe people at home
can find sticks and leaves
and do some dot painting
like we did today.
Do you think
that’s a good idea? (Yeah!)
Wow!
Those were some
really fantastic wishes!
Do you have a wish
for the world?
If we believe,
some day all good wishes
will come true.
Now let’s sit back, relax
and enjoy a song
about a pig, a duck,
an ant, and a cow.
It goes like this.
Pinky, Pinky, Princess,
soaking up the rays.
and silent beams
of love extend
to her piglets in the hay.
Tina has no desire
for such an idle state.
Although for some
to be a park duck,
Is a ticket
on the “gravy train.”
Antenna’s up for tourists,
to insinuate a place.
At a picnic banquet,
And introduce the family
to the human race.
Bernard’s proudly bovine,
a picture of strength
and grace.
In his youth
he was imprisoned,
and would snort
at manmade gates.
But a lovely vegan
freed him,
and restored his faith.
Now in the green fields,
He shines out love…
All the ducks and geese
are playin’
And the birds are flyin’ high
Everybody’s happy,
as the summer passes by
‘Cause it’s vacation time
I’m on vacation time
It’s a time we take a rest
Or do the things
we like the best
What a fantastic day!
I learned so many things.
First, I learned that
an environmental activity
is one that doesn’t hurt
the environment.
I also learned
how to make an
Aboriginal dot painting.
What else?
We also know that
animals are our friends.
And the best way to be kind
to the environment and
our animal friends is to
Be Veg,
Go Green
2 Save the Planet!
Let’s hear our pals
in Australia
say it one more time.
Be Veg,
Go Green
2 Save the Planet!
Bye-bye! Bye-bye! See you!
Thanks for
joining us today on
Enlightening Entertainment.
Coming up next is
Words of Wisdom,
after Noteworthy News,
here on
Supreme Master Television.
May you have fun and
smile wherever you are!
Bye for now!
We’re going
to have a little fun
Soak up a little sun
It’s vacation time
It’s a time we like to share
Let everybody know
we care
It’s vacation time
Studies of near-death
experiences reveal
that all accounts have
common elements,
regardless of
the person’s religion,
national origin or culture
People feel intense love,
compassion,
connectiveness, oneness.
They really feel
that even though
they’re in a mystical,
unearthly realm,
that realm is truly home.
Hear about fascinating
findings such as these
from Dr. Jeffrey Long,
a physician who is
on the forefront of
near death experience
research on the first
of a three part series
beginning Monday,
July 19, on
Science and Spirituality.
