Hi! It's you!
You're just in time.

It's so good to see
you. Come on in.

I was just about to go out
to the Otter Pond and...

[sniffing]

Wait a minute,
what's that smell?

[sniffing]

[sniffing]

[gasps] It's you!

[smells]

Ooh! You smell like you're
ready to play today. Are you?

Me too! As a matter of fact,

I was getting ready to do my...

Woodland Workout!

Stretchin'! Jumpin'!
Runnin'! Feelin' good.

The Woodland Workout!

And Pip and Pop are
gonna do it with me!

I'm just on my way out
to the Otter Pond to join them.

Wait a minute. I need my towel.

Now, where'd I put my towel?
Um...

Aha! I left it
in the living room.

Breathe in.
Breathe out. Very good.

Ok, well just take two icicles
and call me in the morning...

Icicles. Treelo loves icicles.

Hi, Ojo. Hi, Treelo.

-Bear!
-Bear!

-Bear!
-Bear, you don't look so good.

Me? But, I was just about
to do my woodland workout!

No.
No, no I don't think so, Bear.

-No, no, no, Bear.
-But I feel great...

No, no! Now, now. Just lie
down right here for us, Bear.

We're playing doctor,
we'll tell you how you feel.

I see! Ojo and Treelo
are playing doctor.

Um, Doctor Treelo,
could you please hand me

the tongue repressor?

-Tongue repressor!
-Yes! Ok thank you.

Okay. Open up, Bear.

[mouth opens]

[echoing] Hello down there!

Whoa! Doesn't look good, Bear.

Hey, Treelo, it's your turn
to check the nose please.

-No, no, no.
-Come on, Treelo,

it's just pretend.

[laughing]

-Treelo?
-Hey Treelo likes it!

Dr. Treelo!

Hey, could you join me
for a conference, please?

Please wait here, Bear.

Okay.

Hey, I'm waiting,

just like
in a real doctor's office.

Um, Bear, um...

well I don't know how to break
this to you,

but you have Big Bearitis!

[dramatic music]

Big Bearitis? Is that bad?

Well don't be silly, Bear,
it's just pretend.

Oh!

And we have medicine!

Yeah ok. Here, you need
to take this too, Bear.

-Medicine? Great! I think...
-Ok. Open up. Take this.

Hey wait a minute, Bear, let go!

Mmm...

Hey that's pretty good,
in a pretend sort of way.

[giggles]

Hey, ya know,
I'm feeling better already.

BOTH: Yeah!

Well, another successful case!

Um, but would you mind
getting up? We need the bed.

Sorry.

Well, thanks for the check up,
Doctors Ojo and Treelo.

I feel great now!

-Thank you, Bear.
-Bye-bye, Bear.

BOTH: Bye-bye, Bear!

[laughing]

[sighs]

It's great to be healthy!

Hey, now there's a word
to think about!

HEALTHY

Healthy!

I've been thinkin'
about being healthy.

I've been thinkin'...

How do you keep feeling
healthy all the time?

Well, food is an important way.

And there's some basic foods
you need to eat

in order to feel great.

Like for instance, um...

Oh! You need protein,
like meat and eggs.

And vegetable and fruits...
like apples.

[biting]

And bread and pasta,
like spaghetti...

[accordion playing]

And my personal favorite...
dairy... like ice-cream!

All these foods will
help you feel great,

[drummer roll]

Woodland Workout!

Stretch! Jump!
Run! Feelin' good.

Are you with me? To the pond!

BEAR: Hop, hop, hop.

[Tutter screams]

[Tutter screams]

-Bear!
-Sorry, Tutter. Are you ok?

Whoa, Bear!
Be careful, Bear. Be careful.

A mouse is working here, Bear,
a mouse is working!

Sorry, Tutter, I didn't realize.

I almost stepped
on Tutter's cheese.

[Tutter grunts in effort]

Um Tutter, Tutter?
What are you doing?

I just got lots
and lots of cheese, Bear.

Yep, lots of cheese.

Cheddar, Brie,
Gorgonzola, you name it.

I gotta put it away
before it spoils, Bear,

before it spoils. [exclaims]

Putting cheese away,

that's a good workout,
for a mouse.

[laughing]

And... what...
are... you... doing...

today... Bear?

I was just getting ready
to do my Woodland Workout!

Stretchin'! Jumpin'! Runnin'!
Feelin' good. You know.

[chuckles]

Woodland Workout...
how nice how nice.

[Tutter grunts in effort]

BEAR: Um...

-Tutter, Tutter, Tutter?
-What?

How long have you been
trying to move this cheese?

Um, since sun up, Bear.

Or was that before sun up?

I guess you could say,
a long time.

Yeh, yeah.
A long time, Bear! Long time!

[struggling]

I think Tutter's looking
a little tired, don't you?

[Tutter screams]

You know when you want
to do something

and you don't feel good?

I think it's one of those
times for Tutter.

Oh, boy!

Tutter? Um, maybe you
should take a little rest.

I think it's time you put down
the cheese my little friend.

No, Bear!

♪ Well, you're tired
you're feelin' kinda low♪

♪ Put down the cheese
you don't have far to go ♪

♪ It's time for quiet time ♪

-No, Bear!
- ♪ Time for some quiet time ♪

But time is exactly
what I haven't got!

♪ Bear! I'm busy, busy,
busy can't stop to chat! ♪

♪ I gotta push this cheese
across my welcome mat ♪

♪ Just take some quiet time ♪

But Bear...

♪ Time for some quiet time ♪

How can I possibly
take quiet time?

♪ I can see
you're out of breath ♪

♪ You barely drag
yourself along ♪

But I'm not even tired, Bear!

♪ If you just take
some quiet time ♪

♪ I know you'll soon be
feelin' strong ♪

[yawns]

♪ Now that you mention it,
bear I think that I'll ♪

♪ Just rest my head
here for a little while ♪

♪ -And take some quiet time
-Quiet time... ♪

♪ -Time for some quiet time

[Treelo snoring]

[sigh of relief]

[snoring]

♪ Quiet time... ♪

[snoring]

Shh!

Looks like Tutter's resting now.

And looks like
an excellent time for me

to get in my Woodland...

[whispers] Workout.

Stretchin'! Jumpin'!
Runnin'! Feelin' good.

Are you ready?
The pond is just outside.

To the pond!

[indistinct shouting]

-Hey, Bear!
-Hey, Pip. Hey, Pop.

Where have you been, Bear?

Yeah, what happened
to your Woodland Workout!?

I was just on my way
outside to see you guys...

-Sure, Bear.
-Yeah. Whatever you say, Bear.

-No, no, no really...
-It's OK, Bear.

We went ahead and did
the workout without you!

-We missed you!
-What?

And we feel great!

But I'm ready to do
the Woodland Workout now!

-Nah! Been there! Done that!
-Bear?

BOTH: Why don't you
work out with Tutter?

Well,
Tutter is resting right now.

-BOTH: He is?
-Mm-hm.

Hey!

-Tutter!
-Tutter!

BOTH: What's wrong?
What's wrong?

Shh!

Pip, Pop?
Tutter needs his rest now.

But Bear don't ya think
Tutter would feel better...

-If he were running around...
-Jumping...

BOTH: And having fun!

Shh!

Guys! When you're tired,

the best thing you can do
is to take some Quiet Time.

Yeah, but...

You know... Quiet Time?

Quiet time? Ooooohhhhh!
That sounds like a good idea!

If Tutter needs us to be quiet,
we'll be quiet!

-Quiet!
-Quiet!

Like a mouse!

-Hello, everybody.
-Bear, look. He's awake!

Yes, he is. So Tutter,
how are you feeling now?

Well, I'm, pretty good...

that Quiet Time was really good,
Bear...

Why, thank you, Tutter.

Bear. How do you know
when to take some Quiet Time?

I'll help you explain, Bear.
I'll help you explain.

♪ When you're tired
and feeling kinda low ♪

♪ That's when you know
it's time to take it slow ♪

♪ And take some quiet time ♪

♪ Time for some quiet time ♪

♪ Whoa, it's so nice
to relax and take a nap ♪

♪ -Just find a bed or a chair or
-BOTH: Someone's lap ♪

♪ And take some quiet time ♪

♪ -Time for some quiet time
-Quiet time ♪

♪ Time for some quiet, quiet,
quiet, very quiet time♪

[yawning]

[snoring]

♪ Quiet time! ♪

[snoring]

-Hey, Pop, look!
-Bear fell asleep.

Hey, Pop. Maybe we should
have some quiet time, too?

Nahhhh!

PIP AND POP: Quiet! Quiet!

[guitar music]

Gee, I guess I fell asleep.

Nothing like a little quiet time
to make you feel refreshed!

Whoa! Whoa!

Ah! [exclaims loudly]

So, how you feeling, Tutter?

How do I feel, Bear?
How do I feel?

After that rest,

I feel like I could push
that cheese from

here to the pond and back!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah...

Hey,
Tutter's feeling a lot better.

Bye, Bear.

Tutter? Hey, where you going?

Ha-ha!

Watch this, Bear,

this mouse has
some cheese to move!

One, two, three!

Wow! What a strong mouse!

-See ya later, Bear.
-See ya later, Tutter.

Bear?

About that quiet time...
it really did the trick!

Thank you, Bear.

You're welcome, Tutter.
Any time.

[both laughing]

[sighs]

Sleeping can do a body good.
So, what shall we do?

Sleeping can do a body good.
So, what shall we do?

-[laughing from afar]
-Mm?

Hey, did you hear that?

That sounded
like my little friend, Shadow.

[Shadow laughing]

Mmm…

Sounds like she's up
to one of her old tricks again.

But, if we look real hard,
and sing a little song together,

maybe she'll appear.

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

♪ Where-o where-o
where is Shadow? ♪

♪ Where-o where-o
where is Shadow? ♪

♪ Where can Shadow be? ♪

[Shadow laughing]

Hi, you furry ο' Bear.

Hi, Shadow. Nice to see you.

So, what have you been
up to today?

I was just dancin'
about the walls

and playing
in the corners, Bear.

Oooh, that sounds like fun.

Well, I was wondering, Shadow...

would you tell us
one of your stories?

Mmm… Now let's see...

Here's a story you might like.
Just watch!

[Shadow humming]

Wow, those five little monkeys
sure know how to jump and play.

Like a lot of kids I know.

Well, Bear,
sometimes you feel like resting

and sometimes you feel like
laughing and flying around...

That's true, very true!

Well, Bear, I'm off to play,

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

[Shadow laughing]

-Bye!
-Bye, Shadow.

[sighs] Well, I'm not really
feeling like doing

my Woodland Workout anymore.

In fact, I'm feeling...

[dance music]

Oh-oh!
I'm getting that feeling again.

Yeah, it's an itchin',

a scritchin', a scratchin'!

Hey, I'm curious,
were you Cha-Chaing?

Well, I think
we should go up and tell Luna

all about our day
and everything we did. Come on.

[calm music]

Aha! There she is.

It's Luna, my friend, the moon.

-Hey, Luna!
-Hello, Bear.

I was just getting ready
to cast my glow

over the night sky...

And how was your day
in the Big Blue House?

Great, Luna.

I had fun playing Doctor
with Ojo and Treelo.

Guess who the patient was?

-Was he big and brown?
-Yep, that's me!

[Luna laughing]

And my favorite little mouse,
Tutter?

Tutter was a little too pooped
to push the cheese,

but we had some quiet time
and he felt better.

Well, it's time for me
to get back up in the sky.

I don't want anyone wondering
what happened to the moon!

Hey, Luna. Would you join me
in a song before you go?

Of course, Bear!

♪ -Hey, this was really fun
-We hope you liked it, too ♪

♪ Seems like we've just begun ♪

♪ When suddenly we're through ♪

♪ Goodbye, goodbye,
Good friends, goodbye ♪

Bye now!

[guitar music]

Well, thanks for visiting
the Big Blue House!

Remember, tonight,
get a good night's sleep.

And for all you

no more jumpin' on the bed.

[laughing]

See you soon!
