[Music]
won
zoomo here's a fun way to turn ordinary
sock into these groovy tiey
socks cat a of Yuma Arizona emailed us
the directions here's what you'll need
some fabric dye a disposable pan and a
plastic spoon the Dy can stain so be
sure everything you use is disposable
some rubber gloves so your hands don't
get covered with
thy some white cotton socks that have
already been washed soaked in water and
rung out and some thick elastics
first cover the area you're working on
with
newspaper then dissolve the D package in
warm water according to the directions
on the back of the package now for the
tie dying
part to make
Stripes wrap several elastics around
your
sock very tightly so wrap this around
here so I'm going to have 1 two three
four stripes in that sock
there we
go make sure it's really tight or the
stripes won't come out as
well here we go
okay to make
circles pinch a section of your sock and
tie it with an
elastic so here I'm going to pinch this
part of the sock right
there and I'll tie it like
this
go one more
time
here make it really
tight okay
there now put on your rubber
gloves
here
on oops my pinky finger stuff okay and
the other
one
get in there okay there we go now dip
your socks into the
dye you make here actually I'll start
with this one dip middle and yellow
o you want to leave your socks in the
diee for about a minute
so in
there squeeze it
out there we go now I'll ring it
out
there here I'll dip the ends in the
pink
ooh there we
go wow this looks really
cool there okay yeah put
here and now these here here's a really
cool way to do this if you grab the
circles like this and dunk the other
section of the sock in one color I'll do
it in
yellow bring that out and then put the
circles in a different color so here put
them in the
pink
wow really neat okay and now lay your
socks on the newspaper
to
[Music]
dry after your socks are dry run them
under cold water to rinse
them take these rubber gloves off
okay here we
go here are some that are already
dry you take the elastics
off they
look whoops like
this pretty groovy
huh make sure that you wash your socks
separately from the rest of your clothes
the first few times that you wash them
just in case the dye runs a little bit
you can also tie-dye other things using
these techniques like
pillowcases t-shirts and
napkins try it at

jine
[Music]
hi my name is Lexi I live in tishia
Connecticut and I'm 11 years
old I've always wanted to dance when I
was little so I asked my parents if I
can take dance lessons and they SED me
up and I've been dancing ever since I
was
three the dancing that I do is tap the r
Jazz tap is my favorite kind of
[Music]
dance the difference between the regular
shoe and the tap shoe is the tap shoe
has metal plates on the bottom which
makes a
sound I learn new steps by watching the
older girls I just watch them and I try
to do it
myself
and what started me into dancing was
watching old movies and Bradway dance
shows I tap everywhere I
go I even tap at the grocery store when
I'm with my mom I'll start skipping and
doing all these crazy
things I don't know why don't know how I
just do
it
if you wanted to try tapping for the
kids out there who really want to then
you should try it because it's really
fun you don't even need tap shoes you
can do with your bare feet on the floor
wherever you
[Music]
are I think my feet are instruments cuz
I can make them play any beat I hear
like for instance
ticktock
musical patterns are such a part of T
this is a slow
Rhythm this is a medium
Rhythm this is a fast
rhym and that is musical
pattern I have a lot of Dreams one dream
that I want to come true is for me to
get straight 80s to go off the C and be
a good dance teacher and open up my own
Studio but for now I'm going to keep on
[Music]
dancing
ooh okay Zoomers are You Ready for
today's Zoom side challenge it was sent
in by Anita e of Fresno California see
this grid it has six squares going this
way and six squares going that way for a
total of 36 squares here's aita's
challenge a player thinks of a repeating
pattern the pattern could be to start in
this square and take one step forward
and one to the left one step forward and
one to the left see how it repeats one
step forward one to the left
forward left and forward stop
players keep doing this until they reach
a square in this row I drew the pattern
on a smaller grid to show you what it
looks like see one step forward and one
to the left forward left forward left
forward left and forward see how it
repeats once a player thinks of a
pattern then the other players have to
try to guess what it is but if you move
into the wrong Square then you have to
move into the square that you came from
we're going to use orange plates to Mark
our paths we already came up with a
bunch of patterns I'm going to go first
everybody close your eyes okay all
right this is my
pattern
okay Eric why don't you be the first to
guess all right so pull down my pad I'll
get the excuse me get some plate my down
get a bunch of plat and don't forget if
you go in the wrong one you go back yep
where do you end where does he end yeah

Zoom game dear Zoom we have a Zinger
that we love to play with friends
everyone takes off their shoes and
places them in a big pile next sit in a
circle and hook your arms
together without unhooking your arms
find your shoes put them on
and tie them as fast as you can Nina and
Gina s of wiing
Illinois okay guys I I think I have a
strategy before we start goe I think we
should um try to find our own shoes and
then the two people next to you so we
can help each other but I think if we
helped everyone like one at a time it
would be too slow that's a really good
idea so search for the search for those
shoes your own Sho I have mine well make
stay link oh yeah guys you have to stay
link I think this is mine I found I
found one of my oh I found them okay
this is somebody's it's not mine I'm not
sure if this is my shoe or
not I think that might be mine one
second Caroline has something to say
okay now we have our own shoes and
Francis is working on putting hers on we
first get hers on and then we'll all and
then we all tie them I almost have all
mine
on no no no wait hold on oh my gosh do
you see what Kenny did what he got of a
really good Str let's just show them
really quick we'll do it again we'll do
it again ready watch me and me and Kenny
pulled then I we switched laces I I went
under and then I finished went down and
then we let Eric finish oh that's a good
idea so will you do that for
M
I'll try it again I'll go underneath go
underneath yeah no the other way around
so who is already done
Kenny all right can somebody try this
one for me I
will this is cool is everyone almost
