hi everyone I wanted to use a different

way to say hello to you today instead of

saying it out loud I use Pappy's pencil

to write the word

h-e-l-l-o what does that spell right it

spells hello I know a different way to

say hello to you too Pappy I can wave my

bristles hey hello waiting that's very

nice here we go Lily

there are lots of ways to speak without

using your voices

did you see that grand cap you wait that

has to say hello hey Sonny don't you

know what time it is

what in pappyland are you doing now drew

it I'm tipping my hat to the girls and

boys it's another way to say hello I'm

tipping my head to Tiana and miles and

to Marissa and Stacy and Laura and of

course I'm tipping my hat to you too if

you don't have a hat to tip you can use

your hand and pretend it's a hat watch

me tip my hand to say hello

that's why I see lots of your hands

tipping that reminds me I don't say it I

already know what you have in mind you

probably have a riddle to ask us today

that's exactly what I have in mind I

didn't say a word it's written all over

your face Elmer let's hear your riddle

what has two hands and a face and runs

both all day and all night hmm lots of

Pappy's friends have two hands in her

face but nobody I know when's all day

and night they would be too tired to do

that it's a clock a clock has to and a

face and it runs all day long too bad my

favorite clock was kicked out of the

library today Oh Elmer I'm sorry to hear

that and what was your clock doing it

was talking too much

Elmer you always keep us laughing

it's time for us to get inspired today

let's see there's the pappy scope at the

cap at express at the wishing wheel or

let's go for anybody

[Music]

hey buddy bear you don't have to get all

gussied up just for a little old Pappy

oh well no offense happy but I'm not

getting gussied up for you then who are

you getting gussied up for before my

friend Elizabeth she's visiting me today

oh I remember you talking about

Elizabeth as she's the pen pal you head

right yep we've been writing to each

other since last summer and we've become

great friends through our letters how do

you feel about meeting Elizabeth in

person I feel like I swallowed a dozen

honey bees that are all buzzing around

in my stomach why is that Elizabeth's

ears can't hear Pappy so I won't be able

to talk to her she won't hear a single

word I say I understand that her ears

won't be able to hear your words but

there are other ways to speak to our

friends there are like what Pappy like

drawing for instance that when I use my

pencil I'm communicating or talking

through my picture and when I dance I'm

talking by the way I move and I can talk

with my face to watch how do I feel

you look awfully tired Pappy

maybe it's time for my nap wake up buddy

I'm not really tired I'm just showing

you how I can talk without using words

and look at me now what's the matter

path is there something scary in the

hamlet let's get out of here fast

there's nothing to fear buddy I was

showing you how you don't need to use

your voice to tell someone how you feel

do you see what I mean I do I knew you

look tired and I knew you look scared

and you never made a sound there's

another way you and Elizabeth can talk

to each other it's called sign language

what's that sign language is a way to

talk with your hands and you don't need

to say words out loud instead of using

your voice to speak the words you use

your hands to draw a picture of what you

want to say it's called signing would

you like me to draw a picture to show

you

see Pappy I said yes without making any

sounds you sure did buddy and I knew

what you meant I

see lots of you have your paper and your

markers pencils and crayons in front of

you if you don't have yours yet run and

get them now here we go

all righty we're going to draw a special

little boy

and Pepe likes to start off by drawing

the face first so starting right here

let's draw a half circle and a half

circle is a circle that's not complete

it's almost

complete but we're going to bring this

line around and we'll stop right there

good all righty now

let's show the front of his hair right

here and we're going to connect this

line this curve line we're gonna connect

it right here okay so let's go

good

alrighty let's draw one ear

there and we'll draw his other ear

now let's draw the top of his hair and

that's just another hat circle and I'm

gonna get a good feel when I say I when

Pepe says he's gonna get a good feel

that means he's gonna kind of practice

before he puts the point of his marker

tran or pencil down he's just gonna

really get a good feel I feel pretty

good now I'm gonna bring it around good

alrighty let's put some eyes on our

little boy okay so let's put one that

right there

alrighty let's put a nose on our little

boy and that's a curb line like that

no let's put a happy smile on his face

and when peppy draws a happy smile it

looks like a you and it's pointed upward

because I'm happy see now if I'm said

the line would go down it be the

opposite you draw a curve downward but

because our little boys happy we're

going to draw the curve line upward

there he is smiling good all right

starting right below his chin let's just

draw curve line like so

and starting right here let's show his

sleeve and bring it there and stop let's

do the same thing here a curve line and

connect it right there now will draw the

bottom of his t-shirt will bring a wound

down and stop
