- Hi, welcome to "Elmo's World."
Oh, guess what Elmo is wondering about today.
Wait for it.
Wait for it. (whimsical music)
Oh!
All the letters of the alphabet.
Oh, from A to Z.
Boy, Elmo loves the alphabet
and wants to find out more about it.
Hey, let's ask Elmo's friend Smartie.
Let's call her together.
- [Elmo And Children] Oh, Smartie!
(Smartie chiming)
- Hiya, Elmo.
Check this out, it's my favorite, alphabet soup.
- Oh, yeah.
Oh, that's perfect, Smartie,
because Elmo wants to learn all about the alphabet today.
- Well, what do we do to learn something new?
- [All] We look it up!
- Getting the A to Z on the alphabet.
Here we go.
You can find letters of the alphabet all around us.
They're on street signs and even doors and windows.
There are uppercase letters,
which are letters that are big.
And there are lowercase letters,
which are letters that are small.
Some letters have straight lines, like the letter T.
Other letters have fun curvy lines, like the letter S.
When you put letters together,
you can sound them out
and make all sorts of wonderful words.
- C-A-T.
- [Smartie] That spells cat.
- Wow, Elmo seeing the letters of the alphabet make words.
- Yeah, it's pretty A-mazing.
Well, I got a word search waiting for me.
I'll Z you later.
- Oh, Z you later.
Thank you, Smartie.
(Elmo chuckles)
Hey, that give Elmo an idea.
Let's play a game together.
Yeah!
Come on, come on.
(gentle music)
Let's see how many letters we can find in this picture.
Are you ready?
Let's play.
Boy, Elmo doesn't see any letters.
- [Child] There's a B.
- [Elmo] A B, where?
- [Child] The bench.
- [Elmo] Oh, the bench.
Elmo sees it.
B is for bench.
What other letters can we find?
- [Child] An S, it's in the sun.
- [Elmo] Oh, there it is!
S is for sun.
Are there any more letters?
- [Child] Z!
- [Elmo] Z, where's the letter Z?
- [Child] On the zebra.
- On the zebra?
Oh, found you, letter Z.
And Z is for zebra.
We did it!
We found all the letters.
Good job, everybody.
Wow, the alphabet is everywhere.
Oh, and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
Does Mr. Noodle know the alphabet?
Let's ask him.
Hey, Mr. Noodle!
Oh, it's Mr. Noodle's poodle, Schmoodle.
Hi, Schmoodle. - Schmoodle!
- Oh, Schmoodle, do you know the alphabet?
(Schmoodle barking)
You do?
Schmoodle, show us the first letter of the alphabet.
- [Children] Yeah, show us.
(Schmoodle barking)
- [Child] That's not the first letter of the alphabet.
That's a ball.
- [Elmo] Schmoodle, a ball isn't a letter of the alphabet.
A is the first letter of the alphabet.
Can you find the letter A, Schmoodle?
- [Child] That's not the first letter of the alphabet.
That's a bone.
- [Elmo] Elmo thinks Schmoodle wants to play.
- [Children] Keep trying, Schmoodle.
- [Elmo] That's it, the letter A is the first letter
of the alphabet.
- [Children] You did it, Schmoodle.
- Maybe next time you can find more letters to make words.
Thank you for helping us
learn about the alphabet, Schmoodle.
Thank you, Schmoodle.

Hi!
Welcome to "Elmo's World."
Oh, guess what Elmo is wondering about today.
Wait for it.
Counting.
Yeah!
Whoa, pretty clouds.
Let's count them to see how many there are.
One, two, three, four, five.
Five clouds all together.
Yeah!
Boy, Elmo loves counting and wants to find out more.
Hey, let's ask Elmo's friend, Smartie.
Let's call her together.
- [Elmo And Children] Oh, Smartie!
(Smartie chiming)
- Five, four, three...
Count down with me, Elmo.
- [Smartie And Elmo] Two, one!
- Woo hoo! - Yay!
Boy, Smartie sure does love counting.
- You've got my number, Elmo.
Get it, number?
(Elmo chuckles)
Counting?
- Counting, yeah.
Boy, Elmo wants to find out more about numbers.
- Well, what do we do when we wanna learn something new.
- [All] We look it up!
- Searching for counting.
Counting is so much fun,
and you can do it all sorts of ways.
You can count your eyes.
One, two.
And your nose.
One nose.
You can count the trucks in the sandbox.
One, two, three trucks all together.
- [Children] One, two, three, four!
- [Smartie] Four jumps.
- Wow, cool!
Thank you, Smartie.
- You can always count on me.
See you later.
- Oh, bye bye!
Boy, there's so many different ways to count.
Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.
Oh, let's play a game together.
Yeah!
Come on, come on.
(gentle music)
Oh, Elmo wonders if we can match the right number of hats
to the penguins.
Are you ready?
Let's play.
First, let's count to find out
how many penguins there are.
- [Elmo And Children] One, two, three, four, five.
Five penguins.
- [Elmo] So they need five hats.
One for each penguin.
Oh, let's try these.
Uh oh.
How many hats are there?
Let's count.
- [Elmo And Children] One, two, three.
- [Children] Oh no!
- [Child] Two penguins don't have hats.
- [Elmo] We need more hats.
Hey, let's try this group.
- [Elmo And Children] One, two, three, four, five.
Five hats all together.
- Yay, we did it!
Five hats for five penguins.
Wow, snazzy hats, penguins.
Boy, there's so much to learn about counting
and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
Does Mr. Noodle like to count?
Let's ask him, okay?
- [Elmo And Children] Hey, Mr. Noodle!
- Oh, it's Mr. Noodle's poodle, Schmoodle.
- [Elmo And Children] Hi, Schmoodle.
- [Elmo] Oh, Schmoodle, do you like to count?
(Schmoodle barking)
You do?
Oh, show us, Schmoodle.
- [Child] Yeah, show us how you count.
- [Elmo] How many toys does Schmoodle have?
- [Elmo And Children] One!
- [Child] That's one toy.
Now he has two.
- [Elmo] Does Schmoodle have any more toys?
- [Child] Hey, where's Schmoodle going?
- [Children] That's one, two, three.
- [Elmo] Three toys.
Boy, so many toys, Schmoodle.
(Schmoodle barks)
(whistle blows)
- [Elmo And Children] Wow!
- [Elmo] Elmo can't count that high yet, Schmoodle.
- [Children] That's a lot!
- Thanks for counting with us, Schmoodle.
Bye bye. - Bye, Schmoodle.
