There are lots of different kinds of balls.
Bowling balls, golf balls, basketballs, and footballs.
Balls come in different sizes and different shapes, too.
There are balls you bounce and balls you hit, even balls on a string.
Everybody can have a ball with a ball.

>> Me too, gotta roll, bye, Elmo.
>> [LAUGH] Thank you, Smartie, bye bye.
Boy, there's so many different kinds of balls and different kinds of games,
you can play with them.
[SOUND] [LAUGH] Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.
Let's play a game together, yeah, come on, come on.

Elmo wonders which ball goes with which game.
Are you ready?
Let's play.
[SOUND] This game has a hole in the grass.
Which ball goes in the middle hole, this one?
>> That's a football.
>> Let's try it.
[SOUND] Oops, that's not right.
>> The football's too big, try the little one.
>> That's it, the golf ball goes in the hole.
The next game has bowling pins.
What kind of ball should we use?
>> The black one, bowling ball.
>> That's right, you use a bowling ball to knock down the pins.
What kind of a ball goes through a goal post?
Looks like it's up to you, football, goal.

[SOUND] You do?
Show us, Mr. Noodle.

[SOUND] That's not a ball.
That's a box.
[SOUND] >> And what's that [SOUND] a ball?
>> Mr. Noodle, that ball doesn't look right.
>> It's not round.
>> Mr. Noodle, a ball needs air in it to make it round and bouncy.
[SOUND] Mr. Noodle, no, air doesn't come in a box.
>> You have to use a pump.
[SOUND] Yeah, that's a basketball pump.
[SOUND] >> Yeah, that's it, Mr. Noodle, you're doing it, yeah.
