The Whale Episode

recommended age Unlock co-watching from 3

Sid wants to know how to measure a giant blue whale with the small ruler his dad gave him. He carries the question through breakfast, a classroom survey and a lab session where Teacher Susie shows the class how to measure using shoes, blocks and their own bodies, a method called non-standard measurement. After a story from grandma and helping his dad measure wood for a toy whale, Sid invents a 'whale ruler' of identical toy whales lined up to count. The episode closes with Sid reminding viewers to keep asking questions.

Super Science Tools

recommended age Unlock co-watching from 3

Sid is a young boy who collects science tools and cannot decide which is his favorite: his magnifying glass, estimation jar, chart or ruler. He brings the magnifying glass to school, where teacher Susie and his friends explore each tool through hands-on investigations, from magnifying tiny bugs to estimating balls in a jar and measuring the classroom with their bodies. Real children appear in short clips trying the same activities themselves. By bedtime Sid decides he likes all of his science tools equally.
