[Music] hey I'm Jeremy one one seven let's hop

out of here come on give it a try [Music]

funding for zoom is provided by the

National Science Foundation America's investment in the future the Corporation

for Public Broadcasting [Music] and by viewers like you

hi rumors want to have a party we've got some great new ideas and even to do

activities that will make any party a success aha we'll show you how to make

cool invitations and delicious treats look for tie-dye okay lots of crazy

games and Ingrid's that you've never seen on do we cook we've got recipes

brainteasers even magic tricks but most of all we'll show you how to have fun

with a bunch of friends or just a party of two so come on and join us

because any day can be a party day it's time to party with zoo [Music]

hi I'm Pablo and I'm Alisa and welcome to a very special zoom along with the

rest of the Zoomers we're going to show you how to throw a party it doesn't matter if it's a birthday party a pool

party or just to get together with friends we've got great ideas for any party and everything you're about to see is boomer

tested and approved so if you're thinking of planning a party what's the first thing you have to do send out

invitations of course you can't have a party without a party gift so problems

going to show us how to make cards for any occasion cards that really get your attention today we're going to make a

pop-up card here's how you make it you take one piece of paper and you fold it

then on the folded edge you're going to draw a dot but find the center first

here it is alright then from the dot

draw two inch lines going to the outer edge

then on the folded edge cut to the line

now you have two flaps fold them so that you have two triangles like this so that

kind of looks like a collar then press

on the edges so that you have sharp creases here we go then fold the flaps

back and open up your card then push in

the top triangle and pinch on the whole design almost got it there we go so when

you push them two triangles back you have sort of like a V when you open it

up you'll have a mouth then design it by

putting eyes ears can draw let's do C

put some lip some eyes pupils and some

long eyelashes

hello then take another piece of paper

and fold it like you did the first time [Music]

then place it evenly the other one and

you can put teeth tongue whatever see so

I'll put a tongue [Music]

and then just school the back making sure you don't glue your drawing that

you did and then just put this paper on

top of it and write something like welcome home and then there you have it

your own little card make you a pop-up card and send it to them thanks Pablo

once you send out your cards you need to think about what you're going to feed your guests if you're not a cook don't

worry because Keiko has an easy recipe for cookies that requires no baking all you need is a microwave Camilo

a Phoenix Arizona sent us this recipe to make no baked cookies first you need to make sure you have a

microwave safe Bowl then put one stick of butter or half a cup of butter into

the bowl now add 1/2 a cup of milk

one cup of sugar oops and I spelt right then you put in one

cup of sugar 6 tablespoons of cocoa you

can just use your finger to level off the top 1 2 3

four five six now add a half a teaspoon

of salt not over your bowl because if

you pour it over your bowl and you pour too much so it's too much in your bowl of ingredients so now you just mix this

up a little bit and then you put it in the microwave for five and a half minutes and start every two minutes but

I already have some made oh you want to put on some ah bring this because the

bowl can get really hot now you can stir

it up a little bit more then add three

cups of oats I am making a big mess one

[Music] two three then add one tablespoon of

vanilla or it in and stir this up kind

of smells like hot chocolate but doesn't look like it now cut off a piece of wax

paper about as big as a plate

that using a spoon take them out and

drop it onto the wax paper now put them

in the refrigerator and let them cool overnight I have some that are already

made don't they look good

Bon Appetit one of my favorite party

games is charades do you know how to play before the party write down the names of popular books

movies and TV shows each on a separate piece of paper and put them all in a hat now watch and you'll get the idea

here's a magician you've seen before on Zoom hi my name is David Cowell and some

eight years old and I'm a magician come on in well the way I got started magic

performing like first I'm just nervous I'm afraid I'm going to do something

wrong so on the counter now when you throw all that color into this coloring book okay but then after I just feel

good great everybody's like you know everybody likes it it's a good job just

really fun I here's a trick that you can

do at home with a pen and a penny now what I'm going to try to do here is make

the penny disappear with my magic pen i watch carefully one two three and the

penny is still there put the pen disappear that's that and I'll not that

an illusion but this [Music] I know you're wondering how I did this

chick and I'm going to tell you just roll back the tape while you were

watching the coin I sneaked the pen behind my ear and while you were

watching a pen I sneak the penny into my pocket and that's how I've in the penny

and you can do this trick at home with the pen and a penny I hope you enjoyed

learning a little bit more about magic and I hope to see you at one of my shows

[Applause] that was one magic trick you can do

yourself here's Alisa with another trick you can try on your friends anytime ok I'm going

to magically get this coin to go through the table and I'll do that by taking a

salt shaker putting a piece of paper on top and putting another then I'm going

to tighten and I'm going to put it on top of the coin okay

and abracadabra right okay

it didn't go through but now I'll do a recap

abracadabra Oh leave me alone okay all the overtime

credit okay how do you say abracadabra

and Abbey daddy I'm a brother coming Deborah brother okay where he just said and I got the front acre through but not

the coin okay how'd you do it okay well

with my great skin and there it is I

when I have a paper over it the second time when I said it's not working I lift

it into my lap and let the paper as a section and a burr broke and what you

just said and Jericho's thank you thank

you thank you very much if you're not very good at magic how about comedy

Jared says the easiest way to do a comedy act is grab a puppet and make up your own jokes take a look at this and

you'll see what we mean here's mr. Jones and mr. bone [Music]

hey mr. bones yes with the scones we're

on Halloween whoa I don't feel skin get

it they were skinned because they don't have any you know as a costume like oh please stop talking to me

hey mr. bones good mr. Jones what kind of art just goes like write it up

sculptures get it sculptures in funny I

need you just ask mr. troll yeah mr.

buns when I laugh at your jokes I don't know every party needs snacks one of the

easiest trees to make is popcorn here's a great way to eat popcorn and play a game at the same time be a zoom place a

piece of popcorn on each shoulder and holding your hands at your sides eat the popcorn without letting it fall to the

floor also you can't move your shoulders kierra an Amherst Massachusetts

alright look is it okay here okay mmm you can turn your shoulders okay

put one hand easy hit okay okay hard

so yeah if you moved your shoulders Hey

ah she moved to Solon it's like a ball this is our alright you come for me baby

I got I got that any difference I don't man you move I got it but now I need to

eat it

[Music] Oh guys I got it I know you can't move

your shoulders I'm not oh that's amazing

a fat game makes quite a mess you might

want to play it outside but what do you do if you plan for an outdoor party and

it rains well here is a baseball game you can play indoors just grab some pennies choose up teams and play ball

here's Jared to explain the rules for penny baseball to play you slide a penny

across the table and try and get it as close to the edge as possible now if it

goes over you get one out alright if it's three fingers away from the edge

you get a single and go to first base if it's two fingers away from the edge you

get a double and go to second and if it's one finger away from the edge you go to third base but if it's less than

one finger away from the edge you get a homerun and if it's more than three

fingers away from the edge it's a strike three strikes and you're out I probably

want to play sure okay I'll go first alright the top of the first inning

[Applause] one out one out that's it two out oh

[Applause] that that's that's a double double for

it alright man on second two out

[Applause] what's that I think that's a home one

hold on guys my my fingers overlapping it okay and it's a home run

I have two right yep two points two out

try all right is it oh my turn I come on

do it oh oh so that one out right now point

out one strike okay come on it you can do it so I want to hold all right oh

it's one two right one two - come on get another run and it's all tied up

strike one strike two

[Applause] sing sing

a single I have a single Franklin

there we go No thank yous also that was a foul I have a person on first place

right yep we can get a triple strike three you got two out two out man on

first ready yep double alright a man on

perks and a man on third oh the great

thing about penny baseball is that you can play as many innings as you want and have as many players as you want we've

got another game you can play indoors called the blonde Cup game but before you can play you have to make it so

here's Kate gonna show you have first you take your cup and you poke a hole in

it you will just want the hole to be big enough so that just doing all right

throw like there now you tried a piece

of string about a foot and a half long maybe a little bit shorter and you put

it through the hole in the bottom of the cup you pull it up and eat I knot so

that it won't go through the hole like

that now you have to make the ball

take a piece of tinfoil doesn't really matter how big it is because gonna get

crinkled and take the end of the string

take the end of the string and you handle it up into a ball around the end

I need to go to ball making school

oh that's a good bar the object of the

game is to get the ball into the cup [Applause] [Music]

guess I'm not very good at oh I got it try it at home thanks Keiko

here's another game with cup said everyone can play together it's the cupcake you've seen us played on zoom

here's a real refreshing treat for summer it's cranberry server and Jared's at cafes in with the recipe ingredients

you'll need are evaporated milk and thawed frozen cranberry juice

concentrate okay first you pour in 3/4 of a cup of evaporated milk and mix it

together with a 12-ounce can of thawed

frozen cranberry juice concentrate looks

like tie-dye okay once it's all mixed

together you take plastic wrap and lay

it over the top to keep it fresh now put

it in the freezer now it should be in

the freezer for about two hours so it's get to look like this at all now chop it

up a little so that it'll be easier to blend all right

now pour your cranberry glop into the

blender and blend until it's like juicy

and make sure the motors off when you do that now pour in two small cups for

serving later and once again put plastic

wrap on top then freeze them until

they're firm like this
