[laughing]

Hi there!
It is so good to see you.

I was wondering
when you were going to get here!

Come on in!

[music]

I am so excited today. Today…

[sniffing]

[sniffing]

Wow! I bet you smell
this good all the time!

[laughing]

Well, as you can see,

we've had a very busy day
here at the Big Blue House.

And you're just in time
for the best part.

Ojo, Pip and Pop,
Tutter and Treelo,

are all sleeping
in the living room tonight

and you're just in time
for the bedtime story.

[exhales]

I love a bedtime story at
the end of the day, don't you?

And then…

[yawning]

[tongue clicking]

It's off to bed for this old bear.

ALL: Bear! Bear!

We're ready for our story time!

Story, story story!

Story, story story!

Okay, okay. Are you
ready for one of Bear's

super-duper bedtime stories?

-ALL: Yeah!
-Come on.

Story!

-All set, Bear.
-BEAR: Okay, then.

Now…

Once upon a time…

[laughing]

I just love it when
stories start out that way!

Just love it, love it, love it!
[laughter]

ALL: Tutter!

Sorry, sorry. Go ahead, Bear.

Thank you, Tutter.

Anyway, once upon a time,
there were two otters…

Hey, just like us!

…a mouse…

That must be me!

…a lemur…

Treelo lemur.

…and a little girl Bear cub.

Hey! Me! I knew I had
to be in there somewhere!

[laughing]

Well these five were
such good friends

that one day,
they set out on a journey.

Over hills, and through valleys,

until they came upon
a great big castle!

[exclaims]

ALL: Look at that castle!

And inside the castle,
was a fire-breathing dragon!

Oh, dragon!

And do you know why
the dragon was breathing fire?

Maybe he needed a breath-mint?

[laughter]

Well, no.

Actually, it was because,
before he went to bed,

he had too much spicy food.

-Big mistake.
-Can't do that!

So,
to help the dragon feel better,

our five travelers gave
him a big glass of water

to help put his fire out

and they all lived happily ever after.

The end.

So what do you want to do next?

Have a snack?
Or how about another story?

[snoring]

[snoring]

More cheese for King Tutter.

Hm… Looks like
everybody's worn out.

Why don't we let them
get their sleep? Come on.

[click]

Sweet dreams, everybody.

Wow! What a day we've had!

Yeah… a day.

Aren't days amazing?

Anything can happen in them.

Like… First,
the sun rises and you wake up!

And then, at noon, you get to eat lunch.

Mmmm… Peanut butter.

[tongue clicking]

And then, in the afternoon, well,
you might want to read a book…

or fly a kite!

And then, before you know it,
it's night time.

That's when the world settles down
and the crickets sing.

And everyone gets ready for bed.

Yeah. Days are wonderful.

Anything can happen.

It's all up to you.

But what do you think?

What are you going to do today?
Hm?

What do you think?

Today, I'm going to do…

go to the playground,
the pool later…

Play baseball.

Blast a home run into the outfield.

I'm going to go
to my grandma's house.

Celebrate my birthday.

Play in my backyard.

I have tennis lessons.

I'm gonna go home
and play video games.

I like to play games every day.

And practice my piano.

And my five motions of ballet.

Wow! You sure do know
how to make a day fun!

Me? I have three
favorite parts to my day.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner!

[laughing]

Hey, look!

It's Pip and Pop's Beach Ball!

They must have left it here
after we came back from the pond.

It was such a great time!

There's nothing like swimming
on a warm, beautiful day.

And we had so much fun
down at the pond.

[clock ticking]

Everybody loves the Otter Pond.
But not as much as Pip and Pop.

Well, I think I'll put their ball
in the closet for tonight.

PIP & POP: Hey, Bear!

Pip, Pop!
I thought you were asleep.

-Oh, we were, Bear.
-But, you know, now we're, um…

awake!

I see.

Oh! Hello! Our ball!

Hey!

You going swimming without us, Bear?

-At night?
-Yeah, what's up with that?

Well, no, actually I was
about to put it away.

I, for one, could use
a little… dipparooni.

Piparooni?

A fine idea, Poparini. Shall we?

To the Otter Pond!

Guys?

Yeeees?

I don't think right now,

in the dark, would be
a good time to go swimming.

-But, Bear…
-Guys, it's okay.

We can go swimming tomorrow,
if you want.

After all,
tomorrow is another day.

But right now,
you two should get your sleep.

Well… I guess.

Okay, Bear.

But if you're going to have
some more fun tonight,

promise you'll come get us?

I will, guys. I promise.

Well…
okay, then! Night, Bear!

Night, Pip. Night, Pop.

Now, I think it's time
for me to start cleaning up.

[background music]

[background music]

[background music]

[background music]

At the end of the day,
after I've tidied up,

I always like to have a nice cup
of warm milk before I go to bed.

[slurping]

There's nothing like a cup of warm milk
to give you the sweetest dreams.

Hey, look!

It's Tutter's carrot.

[laughing]

That Tutter.
Do you know what he did today?

Well, I'll tell you.

It all started when he found out
he needed to go in for a check-up.

He was at his mousehole,

and he had all this
food in front of him…

Oh, so many carrots…
so much bran…

so much… Bear. Bear!

Hi, Bear!

[laughing]

Hey, Tutter, what are you doing?

Plenty, Bear! Plenty!

I'm going to have the best
checkup that anybody's ever had.

I've got a lot to do for my check-up
tomorrow.

A lot to do.

Yeah, but, Tutter, a check-up is…

Very important, Bear!

And I have to be in tip
top shape. Tip top!

I've already run three times
around the living room.

Got to get my exercise.

And I have to eat all these carrots.

Carrots are very good
for your eyes, you know!

And then there's all this bran.

-Yeah, Tutter, but actually…
-Bran is very important!

That's right Bear! I gotta be
regular, Bear. A regular mouse!

I see.

Tutter's trying to do all
his healthy things in one day

to get ready for his check-up.

That's right, Bear.

I've got to eat right.
I've got to exercise

and I've got to get plenty of sleep.

The only problem is
I don't have time to sleep

with all this healthy food to eat,

then there's all the exercise,
and this bran, Bear…

What's a mouse to do!

Tutter.
Can I ask you something?

Sure, Bear, sure.

Tutter, don't you always eat right,

and sleep well,
and exercise all the time?

Well, I try to Bear.
You know, I try.

So, you're already
for your check-up, right?

I am?

That's right! A check-up day
is just like any other day.

Really?

You mean I'm already ready?

But wait a minute,
then what happens in a check-up?

Well, the doctor checks you
from your head to your toes…

Head to tail, you mean.

Yes, head to tail.

And then you can ask him any question

you have about your body
or your health.

Huh! You mean Old Doc Hogg will
answer my questions about me?

Wow!

That's right.

You can ask your doctor any questions

about your body and your health.

They're always happy
to answer any questions.

Well then, Bear, I've got to think

if there's anything that
I want to ask Doc Hogg!

You do that, Tutter.
See you later.

Bye Bear…

Hmmm.

Yep, and that's how Tutter
learned all about a check-up.

See? Like I said,
a lot can happen in one day.

You can learn new
and interesting things!

Just ask someone!
[laughter]

In fact,
I'll bet Tutter's in bed,

dreaming up new questions
for Doc Hogg right…

Bear? Bear?

-Oh!
-Down here, Bear.

Tutter?
I thought you were asleep.

oh! Well, yes.

Bear, yes. And I was asleep…

But, you see…
But, you know, Bear?

I just feel so healthy!

All those carrots! All that bran!

I'm just so full of energy.

Full of Energy, Bear! How can
I sleep with all this energy?

Well, Tutter, maybe if you
had some of my warm milk,

it might help you go to sleep.

It'll make your tummy
all cozy and warm.

Hmmm.

Well, Bear, I do need my beauty rest.

Ok, then. Bring on the milk!

Ok.

Here you go, Tutter.

[slurp]

[big sip]

[big sip]

[exhales]

Thank you, Bear.

Um…

Well…
you're welcome, Tutter…

-Good night, Bear.
-Oh, yeah. Good night, Tutter!

Well, I guess I'll have
some warm milk later.

[laughing]

But I bet Tutter will sleep now.

You know, you should get
a good night's sleep.

That way, you'll have
all the energy you need

to have fun the next day!

[yawning]

I think it's almost time
for my bedtime, too.

But, I have a few things
I have to do. Come on.

[music]

Now, let's see…

I tidied up, had my milk…
What's next…

Brushing my teeth.
To the bathroom!

[Shadow laughing]

Did you hear that?
That sounds like Shadow.

Maybe if we sing her song
together, she'll appear.

♪ O Where-o,
where-o, where-o is Shadow? ♪

[Shadow laughing]

Hey, you big ol' Bear!!
I'm right here!

Hello, Shadow!
It's so nice to see you.

So what have you
been doing today?

I was just playing hopscotch
in the attic with the sunbeams!

That sounds like fun.

Well, Shadow,
would you tell us a story?

Why certainly, Bear!

Here's the story of the day!
Just watch.

Well, I'm off.

But when you need another story,
just try and catch me!

[laughing]

Thanks, Shadow. Bye-bye!

Now, where was I?

Let's see…
Tidied up, had milk…

teeth…
Teeth! To the bathroom.

I am getting a lot done.

But, at the end of a busy day,

I always like to brush my teeth.

And it's a good idea to wash too.

Hey. You know what
this reminds me of?

Ojo! You should have seen
what she was doing today

with Snowbear.
[laughing]

Hey, Ojo!

Hey, Bear!
I've got a baby. Look.

Oh, I see!

Ojo is pretending that
Snowbear is her baby

and she's giving her a bath!

So I see you're giving your baby
a bath in the sink now.

Yes. Snowbear is my little baby,

and I'm her mommy.

Aaaah!

Have you ever pretended
you are a mommy or a daddy?

-See you, Bear.
-Where are you going?

Oh, Bear, I've got to go to the kitchen
now and feed Snowbear.

She just loves mashed
up yams and honey.

That sounds good.

Well, oh, bye-bye.

[spits]

[laughter]

Mushed yams and honey!
Sounds good to my tummy.

Well, all done.

-Bear?
-Ojo! Why aren't you asleep?

Well… Bear, Snowbear said
that she couldn't sleep

without a good-night kiss.

She did, did she?

Well, Ojo, I don't mind giving
Snowbear a good-night kiss.

Come here, Snowbear.

[kiss]

Here you go.

Sweet dreams!

What? Oh, just a minute, Bear.

Mm-hmm. Yes.

I agree. I see. Absolutely.

Um, Bear?

Um, Snowbear says that, since I'm here,

that maybe I should have
a good night kiss too…

Oh, she did, did she?

Well, I agree.
Good thinking, Snowbear.

Here you go, Ojo.

[kiss]
[laughing]

You have the sweetest dreams of all.

Thank you, Bear. Night­-night!

Night!

That Ojo.

Well, looks like the Big Blue House
is going to have

a busy day tomorrow too.

But there's still one more thing
I have to do to end this day.

That's right.
Let's go find Luna. Come on.

[music]

Now, let's see…

Oh!
There she is! Hello, Luna.

Hello, Bear!

I was just peeking over
the edge of the earth

to see if I could catch Ray!

-Any luck?
-No.

Oh…

But, tell me, how was your day
in the Big Blue House?

Well, Luna, we all had quite a day!

Doing all the things…
well, you do in a day!

-Oh, really?
-Yes!

Tutter took a lot of care
to take care of his body.

And Ojo played pretend
mommy with Snowbear.

Sounds like fun to me!

Oh, and then we all danced
and swam at the Otter Pond!

-What a great day!
-It sure was.

And now everyone's getting
a good night's sleep,

so that we can do it
all again tomorrow!

Well, Bear, you know,

each and every day is
a new beginning.

It's a chance to learn
and do new things

that you've never done before.

It's like an adventure
each time you wake up.

And there's always more fun to have!

Well, my day wouldn't be complete without
you singing the "Goodbye Song" with me!

Well, I would love to, Bear.
I would love to.
