[narrator] The babies are playing
on the playground.
But where are they?
Hey, big kids.
We're playing hide-and-seek.
I'm "it" and I found everyone.
Except Party-in-a-box.
-Yeah, Party-in-a-box is a good hider!
-Yeah!
Is it time for Follow the Leader yet?
No, Lulu. We haven't finished
hide-and-seek yet.
But I want to be the leader.
You will, I promise.
Just as soon as we find Party-in-a-box.
Big kids, will you help us?
[big kids] Yes!
Do you see Party-in-a-box anywhere?
-[big kids] There, there!
-[Kip] What?
What? Did you see him?
-[big kids] There, there!
-[Kip] Where?
-Did he go that way?
-[big kids] Yes!
Follow me. Cheetah speed!
[Kip] Cheetah speed!
They always follow Franny.
But I want to be the leader.
My turn.
[boing]
[panting] Hey, Bailey.
Have you seen Party-in-a-box?
Oh, sure. He's a little red box
with a big button you push, and--
No, no! I mean, have you seen him today?
Oh.
-No.
-Oh.
You'll find Party-in-a-box.
Is it time for Follow the Leader, now?
Not yet, Lulu.
But he must be around here somewhere.
Ah!
You come help us, Bail-Bail?
Oh, no, you go ahead. I'll play later.
I'm happy sitting here right now,
under my favorite tree.

[Kip giggling]
Where is Party-in-a-box?
Hey, hey! I know how to get him
out of his hiding place.
-How, how?
-[Kip clears throat]
[loudly] Gee, I sure wish
we could have a party!
Yeah, I would love to have a party!
Party, party, party!
[all] Party, party, party!
-[b*at playing]
-We found you, Party-in-a-box!
[Kip] Good hiding!
[all] Party, party!
[boing]
Clickety Clock! What time is it, big kids?
[ping]
[big kids] Time to eat!
[all cheering]
Oh, good, because I am hungry!
But what about Follow the Leader?
I get to be the leader, remember?
You said.
[tummy rumbling]
Oh. Sorry, Lulu, but it's time to eat.
We'll play later, okay? Come on.
-Come on, Lulu.
-[Tilly cooing]
Okay.
I guess.
[boinging]
Oh! Chef Franny!
[Franny chuckling]
It is lunchtime.
So what should we eat?
I want something that is nice
and warm and yummy.
Okay. "Nice and warm and yum..."
Oh, Franny, Franny, I know.
Okay, what should we eat?
The food I like to eat all the time,
because it's the best food ever!
And what food is that?
I think I know!
And you're going to sing about it, right?
Yes.
Yes, I am.

You sure do love noodles, Lulu.
Yeah, noodles are good,
but how about rice?
Oh, I like rice. It's nice and warm.
Noodles are warm.
Well, that's true.
I like noodles too.
This is really a win-win for me.
We always have noodles. I want rice.
Well, we can't eat lunch until we decide
what to eat, so which is it?
-Noodles.
-Rice.
-Noodles!
-Rice!
You know, Lulu,
we do eat noodles an awful lot.
Maybe today, we could eat rice?
I never get what I want, today.
No Follow the Leader,
no noodles, no nothing.
[gasps] Wait!
I have a way to make everyone happy.
What is it, Chef Franny?
I know a food that's nice and warm.
-Yes?
-And it could be eaten with rice.
-Yes?
-Or noodles.
Yes?
-Well, what is it?
-It's called...
Uh...
Oh, I can't remember what it's called.
I'm the chef, I should know.
Well, that's okay, Franny.
If you can't remember the word,
we can call...
[all] Word Wally!
[Bailey trumpets]
-[Kip] There he is!
-[Lulu] Word Wally, I want noodles!
Come on, big kids.
Let's figure this out quick so we can eat.
Cheetah speed!
[narrator] The babies are here to learn
words for foods in two languages:
English and Mandarin.
You help us. Go, go!
Oh, I love that food.
What's the word for that, big kids?
[drum roll]
[big kids] Rice!
[narrator] And in Mandarin, you say...
Fàn.
Fàn means rice.
That's the best food
in the whole wide world!
What's that word?
[drum roll]
[big kids] Noodles!
[narrator] And in Mandarin...
Miàn.
I love Miàn.
Oh! That's the food
I was trying to think of.
It's warm and can have rice, or noodles.
What's the word for that, big kids?
[drum roll]
[big kids] Soup!
[narrator] And in Mandarin...
Tāng!
Tāng means soup. That looks good!
Now I can make soup,
so everyone gets what they want.
This calls for a...
[all] Word party!
Yee-ha!

Am I getting a sticker?
[narrator] Franny is getting a sticker

A fork and a spoon, for my chart!
Perfect for a "souper" chef!
[Franny chuckles]
Thanks, Sticketybot.
[whooshing]
Ha!
[humming happily]

Well, lunch is done.
What should we do next?
