Music plays as an animated slate reads "TVOKids Summer of Fun."
The name of the episode reads "Fantastic fun 15: Number 8."
Monica stands in the park holding a Badminton racket.
Monica is in her twenties, with long straight brown hair in pigtail braids and wears a yellow T-shirt and a denim overall.
She says HEY, TVO KIDS, I'M MONICA, AND I LOVE BADMINTON. I'M GONNA GIVE YOU THREE QUICK TIPS TO HELP IMPROVE YOUR BADMINTON GAME. OKAY, LET'S GO. TIP NUMBER ONE: THE SERVE. HOLD THE RACKET WITH YOUR DOMINANT HAND. I'M RIGHT HANDED, SO I'M HOLDING IT WITH MY RIGHT HAND. THEN HOLD THE BIRDIE WITH YOUR LEFT HAND. TAKE A STEP IN, LEAN IN, GRAB SOME MOMENTUM AND THEN LET IT GO. TIP NUMBER TWO: THE NOODLE WRIST. ROTATE YOUR SHOULDER OUTWARDS, AND THEN FLICK THE BIRDIE DOWNWARDS. WHEN YOU HAVE A RACKET IN YOUR HAND WITH A LOOSE WRIST, YOU CAN HIT THE BIRDIE FROM THIS POSITION. THAT'S THE SMACK SOUND. TIP NUMBER THREE: THE SMASH. A BADMINTON SMASH IS A FINISHING MOVE THAT'S REALLY HARD TO RETURN, BECAUSE YOU'RE TAKING THE BIRDIE HIGH IN THE AIR, AND YOU'RE SMASHING DOWNWARDS, SO IT'S REALLY HARD FOR THE PERSON TO DEFEND. HAVE FUN ON THE COURT AND TRY TO NOT LOSE TOO MANY BIRDIES.
The clip ends.
Back inside the tree fort, Laura and Monica each stand next to an ironing board containing crafting materials.
Laura says I LOVE IT SO MUCH, TVOKIDS THERE ARE MANY FUN THINGS TO DO THIS SUMMER BUT FIRST OFF, ONE LAST GRADUATION ACTIVITY. CHECK IT OUT. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE BOOKS, ALL THE PLACES YOU'LL GO BY DR. SEUSS.
Monica says IT IS FUN AND WE'RE DOING A CRAFT TODAY, MORE OF A BAKING CRAFT ABOUT THE BOOK SO YOU CAN CHOOSE A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT ICING COLOURS AND DECORATE YOUR CUPCAKES TO LOOK LIKE THE COLOUR OF THE BOOK.
Laura says EXACTLY AND THE REASON WE'RE DOING THIS IS BECAUSE THIS IS A GREAT BOOK TO READ. IF YOU ARE GRADUATING IT TALKS ABOUT ALL OF THE AMAZING ADVENTURES AND OBSTACLES YOU MIGHT FIND ALONG THE WAY. BUT, IN THE END, YOU WILL ALWAYS SUCCEED. SO LET'S GET TO THE CUP KICKS.
Monica says ALL RIGHT. THE FIRST STEP IS TAKE SOME ICING. WE HAVE VANILLA ICING HERE.
As she mixes colours, she says TAKE YOUR TWO COLOURS AND WE WANT TO MAKE PURPLE SO WE'LL TAKE 3 DROPS OF RED, ONE, TWO, THREE AND 3 DROPS OF BLUE, ONE, TWO, THREE AND THEN MIX IT UP WITH OUR LITTLE SPATULA.
Laura says THIS IS SO FUN. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PARTS IS MAKING THE FUN COLOURS OF ICING. OH, THIS IS A VERY NICE PURPLE.
Monica says IT IS! AND THE NEXT STEP IS WE'LL TAKE A CUP WITH A LITTLE ICING BAG IN THE CUP TO HELP YOU FILL IT. TAKE THE ICING SCOOP AND SLIDE IT ON THE SIDE OF THE CUP AND KEEP PACKING IT INSIDE THE CUP UNTIL IT'S FULL.
Laura says AND THEN ONCE IT'S READY THAT'S WHEN YOU CAN ACTUALLY START DECORATING YOUR CUPCAKES WHICH IS THE FUN PART AND WE WILL LAYER THEM JUST LIKE THE COVER OF THE DR. SEUSS BOOK.
Monica says WHILE DO I THIS ICING, LAURA CAN YOU READ US A PASSAGE FROM YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK.
Laura says YES! A BIT OF A SPOILER HERE I'M READING THE LAST PAGE BUT IT'S A GOOD ONE.
She opens the book and reads
YOU WILL BE ON YOUR WAY UP. YOU WILL BE SEEING GREAT SITES. YOU WILL JOIN THE HIGHFLYERS WHO soar TO HIGH heights. YOU ARE OFF TO GREAT PLACES, TODAY IS YOUR DAY. YOUR MOUNTAIN IS WAITING SO, TVOKIDS, GET ON YOUR WAY!
