(whimsical music)
- Hey, guys, it's me Milo.
I know it's summer time but I though I'd check in
and let you know what's going on.
(straining)
Steady.
(panting) Nailed it.
I am super duper excited about something.
Tomorrow, my family is having a yard sale.
For those of you who don't know,
a yard sale is when you take some of your old stuff
and you sell it in your yard.
Some people call it a garage sale.
But, we don't have a garage.
Oh, there we go (laughs).
I can't wait to be a salesman and sell things.
I even made my own name tag, see?
It has my name on it.
Milo (laughs).
But, before I sell anything,
I've got to sort all this stuff into groups.
Oh, oh, my.
Look at all these precious things.
Hey, who put my butterfly wings in here.
I'll save those for later.
Okay, time to sort these things out.
That way, the monsters who stop by our sale
will be able to find what they want more easily.
We learned about sorting last year in school.
Sorting means to put things that are similar into groups.
There are so many ways to sort things.
By color.
By size.
By type.
Hmm, so, how should I sort all this
so it'll make things easy to find?
(gasps) I have an idea.
How about I sort everything by color?
That way, if someone wants something, say, yellow,
they look in the yellow pile.
(rubber duck squeaks)
Make way for the sorting mobile.
Oh, my hat.
No, don't sort my hat away.
Okay, looks like I got everything sorted by color here.
Oh, oh, I've got this big orange pencil.
We'll put that in the orange pile.
And I've got this purple ball here.
I'll put it in the purple pile.
Oh, but it's got yellow on it, too.
Hmm, then we'll put it in the yellow pile.
No, that doesn't seem right either.
I'll put it in the purple pile.
But, (whimpers) it's got yellow.
So, maybe, the yellow pile?
Maybe I'll just keep the ball.
Yeah, save it for later.
Well, everything is sorted by color.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
But, wait.
What if a baby comes to our sale?
Babies are small and can only play
with things that are little.
I know, maybe, I'll sort everything out by size.
(beeping)
I'll put all the small stuff over here.
Medium-sized things go here.
(panting) And large-sized things go right here.
Oh, you're a husky fella.
Oh, yeah, I think this'll work nicely (laughs).
Aww, my first rattle.
Oh, still works.
We'll put that in the small pile.
So, I sorted everything into groups by size.
Small, medium, and large.
Now, everyone will be able to find the things
that are just the right size for them.
Like my teeny-tiny baby shoe.
Or my super amazing Christmas sweater.
That's just the right size for someone
who's not a husky extra large.
And look at all these large things.
You know, I'm having a hard time finding some stuff.
That means that my yard sale customers might
have a hard time, too.
Maybe, I should sort everything by type.
That means that everything that is the same goes together.
Like all the books go in a group,
all the clothes and shoes go in a group,
and all the toys go in a group.
Yeah, I think that's the way to go.
We should sort everything by type.
That way, monsters can easily find anything they want.
It's perfect.
All the different kinds of sorting really wiped me out.
Maybe I'll have a little nap.
(knock on door) Hmm?
Oh, except that monster wants me to bring everything down
for the yard sale.
Coming, monster (laughing).
So, that's it for my monster summer vlog today.
Enjoy your summer and we'll see you later monster gators.
(chuckles) Coming.
(upbeat music)
Yard sale, step right up.
Get the items while they're hot.
Oh, hello, ma'am.
Oh, my puppy dog?
Let me check my ledger.
Hmm, oh, yes, that'll be $3,000 please.
What, it's a bargain ma'am.
It's a bargain.
Oh, hello, sir.
You're interested in my very rare hairytales book, are you?
Well, it's not for sale.
I'm gonna keep that, sorry, sir.
Oh, hello, sir.
Oh, you're interested in my pterodactyl?
Oh, that's not a pterodactyl, it's a Cynognathus,
everybody knows that.
Hmm, maybe I can, let's see if I can get him down for you.
Oh, it's quite a reach.
(straining) Almost got it.
There is an extra fee for delivery.
You know, on second thought, I can't part with these things.
Nothing's for sale.
It's all going back into my room (laughs).
