00:00Oh, hi. Welcome to Sesame Street. I'm a wonder why Baby Bear is taping that spoon on that paper.
00:13Oh, well, one do no longer, my friend. Right there? Perfect. I'm making a collage. You know what a collage is?
00:22Uh-uh. Well, a collage is a bunch of different things put together to make a picture like this.
00:30See, look, I found this beautiful picture of a bowl of porridge right there.
00:37And then I taped it onto the paper. The paper?
00:41Yeah, right there. And then I took the plastic spoon over here and I taped it onto the paper, too.
00:47And now it's the spoon for eating the porridge with. Yeah.
00:51Oh, but what's that string for?
00:54Oh, the string represents the steam coming out of the piping hot bowl of porridge.
01:00Wow. Yeah, that looks like steam.
01:03Yeah. And I call the picture, breakfast.
01:07Wow. Oh, Elmo wants to do that. Elmo wants to make a collage, too.
01:12Oh, really? Yeah.
01:13Be my guest, Elmo. There's the tape over there. And here's some paper for you.
01:19Yeah. And what do you want to put on it?
01:21Oh, well, does Baby Bear have any more of those spoons?
01:24As a matter of fact, I do, Elmo.
01:26Oh, good, good, good.
01:27Here we go.
01:28Okay.
01:29There you go.
01:30All right. Now just tape it onto the paper.
01:32Okay.
01:33Hey, Elmo, you're going to put the spoon right here.
01:36Does that look good, Baby Bear?
01:38Yeah, looks pretty good to me.
01:39Okay.
01:40Peek back a little bit. Then we'll get some tape.
01:49How's that?
01:50Wow. That's terrific, Elmo.
01:54What a picture.
01:55It's bold.
01:56It's simple.
01:57You can call it spoon.
01:59Oh, no, no. Elmo can't, Baby Bear.
02:01Why not?
02:02Well, because it's not done yet. Elmo has a lot more to do. Elmo will be right back.
02:07I wonder what Elmo's going to put in his collage. Oh, well. Time for a nice wheel bowl of porridge. An artist has to eat, you know. I'll be back. Bye-bye.
02:19Wow. Terry has a lot of nice triangles in his collection.
02:23Yeah, thanks, Elmo. And each one is very special.
02:27Really?
02:28Yeah, yeah. This is a triangle that my buddy Baby Bear gave me. Every time I look at it and count the three sides.
02:34Here?
02:35One, two, three sides and three angles. One, two, three angles. I think of him.
02:44Aw, that's nice.
02:46Yeah, sure is.
02:47Any more in there?
02:48Oh, lots of them. Look at this one. Look at this one.
02:51What about that one, Terry?
02:53This one my mommy gave me. Look at that. Look at that beautiful triangle.
02:57Aw, that is so special.
02:59Oh, yeah. Sure is. Sure is.
03:02Oh, look. You've got to see this one. This one is cool.
03:05This one the Grand High Triangle Lover himself gave me at my very first Triangle Lover's meeting.
03:12Look at that.
03:13Wow.
03:14Yeah.
03:15That's great.
03:16Yeah, it is great.
03:18Yeah. Every triangle brings back a memory.
03:21Does Telly have a triangle in Telly's collection for the collage Elmo is making?
03:26A collage? You're making a picture by putting a bunch of different things together on a piece of paper?
03:32That's right, Telly.
03:34And you want to put one of my triangles in your collage? What an honor.
03:39So, Telly, will you give Elmo one, please, please, please?
03:43Well, sure. Let's see what we got here.
03:46Oh, good.
03:47Hey.
03:48What?
03:49Hey.
03:50How about this one?
03:52Wow, it's beautiful.
03:54But, Telly, isn't this one too special? Doesn't this one bring back some memories?
04:00Uh, no. Actually, I don't remember where I got this one.
04:05Oh. Oh, thank you, Telly.
04:08Boy, it sure is special to Elmo. Elmo loves it because this triangle reminds Elmo of Telly.
04:19Thanks, Telly.
04:20You're welcome.
04:21Bye.
04:22Bye-bye.
04:23I love spreading the love of triangles.
04:28Okay. There.
04:31Oh. Elmo?
04:32Huh?
04:33I love it.
04:34I love it.
04:35I love the spoon.
04:37I love the triangle.
04:39It's great.
04:40Well, it's okay, baby bear, but there's still something missing.
04:45Are you kidding, Elmo?
04:47It's perfect.
04:48Oh.
04:49Look at the way the spoon floats over the triangle, huh?
04:53Well.
04:54And the triangle, it looks like a big, furry, purple pile of ice cream.
04:58Yeah, maybe.
04:59Hey, you know, you could call it big, furry, purple pile of ice cream about to be eaten.
05:05Huh?
05:06No, no, that's not it.
05:07Um, it's, uh, it's not done yet. Elmo will be right back, baby bear.
05:13I still say it's perfect the way it is.
05:17Man, you can almost taste that furry, purple ice cream just looking at it.
05:24Haha.
05:25I, uh, I don't know how tasty, furry ice cream is, but you can taste it nonetheless.
05:30There.
05:32Aw, thanks for the chocolate chip for Elmo's Collage Cookie Monster.
05:37You're welcome, little Elmo.
05:39Yeah, me have plenty chips left on this cookie.
05:42Ah, good.
05:43But me better go quickly.
05:45Just looking at that beautiful chip make me want to eat collage.
