00:00Let's flap our wings and fly together, little butterfly friend.
00:17Flutter through the sky together, little butterfly friend.
00:25We can fly from here to there, we can stop and smell our rose.
00:36We can flutter up and down, you can land on Elmo's nose.
00:46Oh, hello.
00:48Let's flap our wings and go together, little butterfly friend.
00:58Flying high and low together, little butterfly friend.
01:06As free as the breeze on a sunny day, we're butterflying all the way.
01:17Let's flap our wings and fly.
01:23Little butterfly friend.
01:29Little butterfly friend.
01:44You're Elmo's friend.
01:46That tickles.
01:52La la la la, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la.
01:57Elmo's full of wonder, wonder what we will discover in Elmo's wonderful world.
02:03Hi.
02:05Welcome to Elmo's world.
02:08Oh, guess what Elmo is wondering about today.
02:12Wait for it.
02:14Wait for it.
02:18Oh, butterflies.
02:22Oh, hi, butterflies.
02:23Boy, Elmo loves butterflies and wants to find out more about them.
02:30Hey, let's ask our friend, Smarty.
02:33Let's call her together.
02:35Oh, Smarty.
02:36Oh, Smarty.
02:40Hiya, Elmo.
02:41Hi, Smarty.
02:42Look at me.
02:43I'm floating like a butterfly.
02:47Wow, pretty.
02:48Oh, that's perfect, Smarty.
02:50Because Elmo wants to learn all about butterflies today.
02:54Well, what do we do to learn something new?
02:57We look it up.
03:00Searching the net for butterflies.
03:03Here we go.
03:05Butterflies start out as caterpillars.
03:08The caterpillar builds a chrysalis all around itself.
03:11Inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar goes through a metamorphosis, a big change, and turns into a butterfly.
03:22Butterflies are insects with six legs, two antennae, and two pairs of wings.
03:28For food, butterflies drink nectar from flowers and juice from some fruits.
03:35Boy, that was cool, Smarty.
03:37Well, I butterfly.
03:40Get it?
03:41Butterfly.
03:42Right, right.
03:42Butterfly.
03:45Catch you later, Elmo.
03:48Bye-bye, Smarty.
03:53Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.
03:57Let's play a game together.
03:59Yeah.
04:00Come on, come on.
04:07Let's help the butterfly get to the flower for lunch.
04:13Are you ready?
04:15Let's play.
04:16Ready, butterfly?
04:17Okay.
04:18Go.
04:20Uh-oh.
04:21He's stuck.
04:22Oh, no.
04:23The butterfly took a wrong turn.
04:26Go back the way you came.
04:28That's it.
04:30Keep going, butterfly.
04:32Keep going.
04:33Oh, no.
04:34You went too far.
04:36Go back, butterfly.
04:39Don't miss the turn.
04:41Keep going, butterfly.
04:43You're almost there.
04:45That's it.
04:46Good job.
04:47We hope the butterfly get to the flower.
04:50Yay.
04:51We did it.
04:52Yeah, baby.
04:53Well, Elmo really loves butterflies.
04:56Oh, and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
05:00Oh, does Mr. Noodle know about butterflies?
05:03Oh, let's ask him.
05:05Hey, Mr. Noodle.
05:08Oh, it's Mr. Noodle's brother, Mr. Noodle.
05:13Hi, Mr. Noodle.
05:15Oh, Mr. Noodle, Elmo was wondering,
05:18do you know about butterflies?
05:20You do?
05:21Oh, show us a butterfly, Mr. Noodle.
05:24Yeah, show us.
05:26Mr. Noodle, that's butter.
05:30That's butter.
05:32Oh, what are you doing?
05:34No, Mr. Noodle, show us a butterfly.
05:39Not butter, the flies.
05:41Okay, Elmo will give you a hint.
05:44A butterfly has two antennae, yeah, and four wings.
05:50Yeah, that's right.
05:53Where did he go?
05:54Oh, no.
05:56Mr. Noodle, you're dressed up like a flower.
06:00Wait, look.
06:01Wow.
06:03Look at all the butterflies.
06:05Butterflies love flowers.
06:08Great job showing us butterflies, Mr. Noodle.
06:10Oh, hi, Mr. Noodle.
06:11Oh, hi, Mr. Noodle.
06:14Boy, learning new things makes Elmo so happy, it makes him want to dance.
06:21Come on.
06:22Happy, happy, dance, dance.

07:23Oh, don't mind if I do.
07:25All right.
07:26Oh, do the slippers fit okay?
07:29Perfect.
07:30Oh, good.
07:31Now, how can we help you, Grover?
07:32Oh, well, my blue fur needs a little fluffing.
07:36Oh, and I also want to be a butterfly.
07:38A butterfly?
07:39Oh, yeah, just for the day.
07:41I am on my way to the garden for a play date
07:43with some cute little butterflies,
07:45and I want to look the part.
07:46Well, we can do that for you.
07:49We are monster makeover experts.
07:52Oh, good.
07:53I knew I came to the right place.
07:54I have many outfits, like this and this.
07:59Wow.
07:59But sadly, no butterfly costume.
08:02Oh, well, that's okay, Grover.
08:04We'll turn you into a butterfly in no time.
08:06Really?
08:07Oh, thank you, my friends.
08:09You're welcome.
08:11Now, let's see if a butterfly has big wings.
08:14Oh, and cute little antennas on their cute little heads.
08:16Do not forget those.
08:17Oh, oh, oh, okay.
08:19I got this.
08:20Ha-ha.
08:23Am I a beautiful butterfly?
08:29Well, you're beautiful butter.
08:33Oh, perfect.
08:35Me got loaf of bread, container of milk,
08:38and all me need is a stick of butter.
08:40Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
08:41This is Grover.
08:42I got this.
08:44Ha-ha-dee.
08:44Oh, that is butter.
08:47I mean, batter.
08:48Hi, Grover.
08:50Where you come from?
08:51Oh, well, okay.
08:53Me gonna go find butter somewhere else.
08:55Bye-bye.
08:56Bye, Cookie Monster.
08:58Listen, we need to make Grover a butterfly,
09:01not butter with antennae.
09:05Okay, one more time.
09:07Yeah.
09:07Zippity-bap.
09:09Did we do it?
09:11Am I a beautiful butterfly now?
09:13Well, you're a butter pecan.
09:16Bye.
09:16No, no, no, no, no, this is Grover.
09:19Oh, I'll fix this.
09:21Yes.
09:24Okay, now you're just playing with me.
09:29I did smell delicious.
09:30But a butter pecan pie is not a butterfly.
09:33Well, I'll try again.
09:35We'll make a butterfly out of you, Grover.
09:38Abby, Elmo thinks that maybe we don't need magic to make a butterfly.
09:44Look, look, we have these antennae that Abby made.
09:47Oh, and this tablecloth.
09:49Hey, wait!
09:50Maybe this tablecloth could be the butterfly wing.
09:53Yeah, we can make Grover a butterfly ourselves.
09:56Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
09:58Let's see what's going on.
09:59Ha, ha, ha.
10:02Ha, ha.
10:05Okay.
10:06I think we will like this a lot.
10:08All right.
10:09Let's do some zhuzhing here.
10:10And, ta-da, all done.
10:12Oh, I love it!
10:15Thank you, thank you, Monster Makeover experts.
10:17You have turned cute and adorable Grover
10:20into cute and adorable Grover Butterfly.
10:23Oh, really?
10:24Oh, and just in time for my play day, too.
10:27Wait for me, Butterflies!
10:29Get me here, Butter.
10:30No?
10:31OK, bye-bye.
10:33Well, here goes another happy Monster Makeover customer.

11:04Oh, hey.
11:06Today, Elmo is helping Gabrielle and grill my meal
11:10with the garden in.
11:12Oh, and so is Tango.
11:21Oh, what did you find, Tango?
11:23A butterfly!
11:26Why, hello, Fluttery friend.
11:29This is a monarch butterfly.
11:31Monarchs are very, very special.
11:33So I am always happy when one visits my garden.
11:36Mm-hmm.
11:37Ooh, a special butterfly.
11:40I have to draw this in my new book.
11:42Mm-hmm.
11:42Butterfly.
11:44Oh, no.
11:45It fluttered away.
11:46Oh.
11:47I wonder how we can get our butterfly friend
11:48to come back to the garden.
11:49Great question, Gabrielle.
11:50Wow.
11:51This is a job for nature explorers.
11:52You could be a nature explorer, too.
11:53Oh, come on.

12:30Wow.
12:31Grandma and Nell is so happy when her fluttery friends are around.
12:35Yeah.
12:36Elmo really hopes we can get the butterfly to come back.
12:40Wow.
12:41Wow.
12:42Wow.
12:43Wow.
12:44Wow.
12:45Wow.
12:46Wow.
12:47Wow.

12:49Wow.
12:50Wow.
12:51Wow.
12:52Wow.
12:53What's that, Tango?
12:54Did you find the butterfly?
12:55Wow.
12:56Wow.
12:57Come on.
12:58Wow.
12:59Wow.
13:00Wow.
13:01There it is.
13:02Hmm.
13:03The butterfly seems to really like this flower.
13:06Oh, no.
13:07Don't flutter by, butterfly.
13:11Huh.
13:12Now the butterfly seems to like these fuzzy purple flowers more than those ones.
13:20Oh, Grandma Nell's butterfly friend just doesn't want to visit our garden.
13:26Hmm.
13:27The butterfly seems to really like some flowers more than others.
13:32That gives me an idea.
13:34Come on.
13:35Okay.
13:36So what did you observe, Nature Explorers?
13:41Well, we observed that the monarch butterfly likes to land on certain flowers more than
13:48others.
13:49You're right, Gabrielle.
13:50The butterflies prefer these flowers because they like the nectar.
13:54It's a sweet treat.
13:55That's a cone flower.
13:56That one is a milkweed.
13:57And that flower is called a blazing star.
14:02Oh, Elmo loves blazing stars too.
14:07So I had an idea, Grandma Nell.
14:10What if we plant all those flowers together?
14:13Right here.
14:14Oh.
14:15Then maybe the butterfly would come back because it likes the flowers.
14:20What do you think, Grandma Nell?
14:21I think that's an excellent idea, Nature Explorers.
14:25Come on.
14:26Let's plant a butterfly garden.
14:27Let's do it!
14:29Look at that.
14:30That's beautiful.
14:31We planted all the flowers the butterfly likes.
14:44Cone flowers, milkweed, and blazing stars.
14:49Now we just have to wait and see if the butterfly will come back.
14:53Look!
14:54The butterfly!
14:55And it brought its friends!
14:56Oh!
14:57It's a butterfly party!
14:58We did it!
14:59Yeah!
15:00We got the butterfly to come back to the garden!
15:15Nature explores the pie.
15:17Nature explores the flow.
15:18Nature explores exploring nature everywhere we go.
15:22I'll be a monarch.
15:23You be a monarch too.
15:25Let's flutter round like the monarchs do.
15:28Flutter, flutter, flutter like a monarch.
15:31Thank you, Nature Explorers.
15:33You got our monarch friends to come back to the garden.
15:36I am so happy.
15:38Good job, Nature Explorers!
15:40And great nature exploring!
15:43Bye!
15:44Bye-bye, Explorers!
15:45What are we going to find in the garden today?
15:52Oh, look!
15:53Butterflies!
15:54Let's count the butterflies!
15:56One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven!
16:15Oh, hi, Julia!
16:16Oh, you seem excited!
16:17What's going on?
16:18Play!
16:19Play, play!
16:20Oh, you want to play?
16:21Well, sure!
16:22What should we play?
16:23Um, kickball?
16:24Oh.
16:25Oh.
16:26Oh, okay.
16:27Maybe not.
16:28Well, how about hide and seek?
16:29Oh, it's okay.
16:31Sometimes friends like different things, so it can be hard to figure out what to play together.
16:50Play, play, play!
16:52Uh-huh.
16:53Oh, but you know what helps?
16:54To find something that you both like to do.
16:57Like, uh...
16:58Julia!
16:59You like to flap your arms, right?
17:01And I like to flap my wings, see?
17:04Flap, flap, flap.
17:05See?

17:15Oh!

17:17Butterfly!
17:18Play butterfly!
17:19That is a good idea!
17:21We can pretend to be butterflies!
17:23Flap, flap, flap!
17:24Flap, flap, flap!
17:25Flap, flap, flap!
17:26This is a great way to play.
17:28Oh!
17:29Oh, here I come!
17:30Hi!
17:31Hello, butterfly!
17:32You want to play too?
17:33Play, play!
17:34Sure!
17:35We can all play together and we can all be friends!
17:36Whoa!

19:13You see that pretty butterfly fly across my nose? I watch him very carefully everywhere he goes.
19:23Hmm. I saw a butterfly like this one time in a book, so now I want to watch this one and take a closer look.
19:35Hmm. I want to see his little wings with colors orange and black. I want to see that furry stuff upon his little back.
19:44Hmm. I wonder if he has a mouth and if his tongue is red. And what are those two pointed things that stick out of his head?
19:55Well, I will not hurt you, butterfly. I wish you would stay. I only want to look at you. Please do not fly away.
20:05Alas, alack, and woe is me. My butterfly has flown. He's gone to find his mommy and left me all alone.
20:20You see that? The little butterfly is back. And now he, he's looking at me.
20:36Ha ha ha.
20:39Ha ha.
