- [00:00:55.290]Silly is the way I feel when I make a funny face
- [00:00:57.920]and wear a goofy, poofy hat that takes up lots of space.
- [00:01:01.680]Let's see your silly faces.
- [00:01:09.410]I'm shaking because I'm scared,
- [00:01:11.120]all alone in the dark at night.
- [00:01:12.830]The thunder and lightning crash and roar,
- [00:01:15.460]hold me close and turn on the lights.
- [00:01:18.720]It looks like she's scared from
- [00:01:20.280]sounds of the thunder and the lightning.
- [00:01:25.950]The smile that you see upon my face
- [00:01:28.540]as the sun shines in the sky,
- [00:01:30.430]that shows the world that I feel happy
- [00:01:33.091]and my mood is soaring high.
- [00:01:36.250]What are some things that make you feel really happy?
- [00:01:39.180]I feel happy when I'm able to go outside and
- [00:01:42.640]talk to my mum and my dad.
- [00:01:47.960]Sometimes I feel so very sad
- [00:01:50.080]and really don't know why.
- [00:01:51.920]Instead of playing and having fun,
- [00:01:54.500]I cry and cry and cry.
- [00:01:57.960]What are some things that make you really sad?
- [00:02:00.590]And how do you make yourself feel better
- [00:02:04.130]when you're feeling sad?
- [00:02:10.337]Angry is how I feel right now,
- [00:02:12.770]I shout with a mighty roar.
- [00:02:14.680]I mostly want to frown and growl
- [00:02:16.980]and stomp upon the floor.
- [00:02:20.250]I wonder what made him feel so angry
- [00:02:22.550]that he want's to stomp his feet.
- [00:02:29.690]I'm bouncing like a rubber ball,
- [00:02:31.370]I'm more excited than I can say.
- [00:02:33.120]It's really hard for me to sit,
- [00:02:34.940]when I'd rather jump and play.
- [00:02:36.900]What are some things that make you so super excited?
- [00:02:40.340]I love when the sun is shining and it's not raining
- [00:02:42.900]and I'm able to go outside for a walk.
- [00:02:45.380]That makes me feel really excited.
- [00:02:49.310]I did it, I did it!
- [00:02:50.680]I shout to the crowd.
- [00:02:51.730]Getting dressed all by myself,
- [00:02:53.230]makes me feel so very proud.
- [00:02:59.810]Feelings come and feelings go,
- [00:03:01.390]I never know what they'll be.
- [00:03:03.250]Silly or angry, happy or sad,
- [00:03:05.370]they're all a part of me.
- [00:03:08.750]And it's okay to feel all these different ways,
- [00:03:12.470]different feelings and emotions.
- [00:03:15.354]The end.
