THEME SONG: The sun is coming out,

so let's go find a new adventure.

You can come along with me and be there always by my side.

Hello.

It's a brand new day.

[singing in spanish] Come on.

Come along and play here in Nina's World.

Hello, hello, hello, hey.

Going to be the best day ever. Come on.

Come along and play here in Nina's World.

Nope.

Hmm, nope.

No. ‐ Nope.

Nope.

Nope. Wait.

What are we looking for, Nina?

My jump rope.

I have to find it, Star.

Chelsea's waiting outside to play.

I'm on it.

No jump rope on the horizon, Nina.

It has to be here somewhere.

[laughs] Star, you found it.

I did?

[gasps] Hey, I did.

Come on.

Let's go play with Chelsea.

[speaking spanish]

Hi, Abuelita.

Bye, Abuelita.

Nina?

[speaking spanish]

I'm going outside to play jump rope with Chelsea.

Eh, eh.

Did you forget that today is cleanup day?

Cleanup day?

Yes.

Your chore is to clean up your room

before you go outside to play.

Oh, right.

CHELSEA: Nina!

Did you find your jump rope yet?

But Abuelita, Chelsea's waiting

for me in the courtyard.

I'll clean up my room after I play.

[speaking spanish] Nina, but your responsibilities

come first.

But that's not fair.

I promised Chelsea.

You promised to clean your room.

Now go tell Chelsea that you'll be out to play

as soon as you're done.

CHELSEA: Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Mars‐‐ these are

the planets I see in the stars.

Hey, Nina.

Ready to play?

[sighs] No, I can't‐‐

not till I clean my room.

Are you sure‐‐

super duper Jupiter sure?

Yeah.

Abuelita said so.

Oh.

Did you ask your mom?

She might say it's OK.

Great idea.

Let me try.

Be right back.

Mercury, Earth, far away Neptune.

Nina can't play till she cleans up her bedroom.

Mami, I can't wait to go play jump rope with Chelsea.

I even practiced my jumping moves in my sleep.

[laughs] That sounds like fun, Mija.

So is it OK if I clean my room after I play with Chelsea?

Hm.

Didn't Abuelita ask you to clean up before you went out to play?

Yes, but it took me so long to find my jump rope.

If your room had been tidy, it wouldn't have taken you

so long to find your jump rope.

See?

By putting your things neatly away,

you'll know where to find them the next day.

It's not fair to make her wait until my room is clean.

Nina, if Abuelita gave you a chore to do,

you shouldn't come to me to change it.

[sighs] I'm sorry, Mami.

I'll go clean my room now.

[music playing]

[sighs] How am I ever going to clean up this mess

and still have time to jump rope with Chelsea?

It's OK, Nina.

We'll think of something.

Oh.

Look, the toys can march back where they belong‐‐

see‐‐ like a parade.

[laughs] Great idea, Star.

We can have a clean up parade.

BOTH: [singing] March, march, march, march, march.

Hooray, hooray, It's clean up day.

I know!

Lets make it the biggest clean up parade ever.

[music playing]

[gasps] Don't forget a marching band.

And lots of confetti.

BOTH: [singing] Come on, everybody,

it's a clean up parade.

Rum, bum, bum, rum, bum, bum.

ABUELITA: Nina!

I have a surprise for you.

[gasps] Uh oh, Star, we didn't clean up.

We made an even bigger mess.

Chelsea came to‐‐

[speaking spanish]

[speaking spanish] I promise I'll clean up this time.

Yes, you will.

And lucky for you, Chelsea asked if she can help.

Yeah, Nina.

We'll clean up faster if we do it together.

Then we can go play outside.

But no more dilly dallying, huh,

until everything is put away.

Got it?

Yes, Abuelita.

Whoa.

Looks like a super duper power twister came through here.

Nope, just me and Star.

Guess we better start picking up my toys.

Sure, Nina.

But first, I want to be a cowgirl.

Yeehaw!

But we need to clean up.

And you can be my lost horse.

What?

No.

I don't want to be a horse.

I want to be a, hmm, uh, a deep sea explorer.

[music playing]

And I'm looking for a giant octopus.

Here, horsey, horsey.

Where are you?

Hi, Hush.

Have you seen a giant octopus?

[gurgles]

In that sea cave over there?

Thanks!

Yeehaw!

I found my horses.

I'm a rootin' tootin' cowgirl.

Uh, no octopus down here in the sea cave.

[knocking]

I hear lots of playing going on in there, girls.

Let's make sure you are cleaning too.

Uh, yep.

We're cleaning, Abuelita.

ABUELITA: Good.

I'll check in on you in 10 minutes.

There's no way we can clean this up in 10 minutes.

What are we going to do?

Here.

I'll show you exactly what I do at home.

I hide everything!

[music playing]

Stop!

I don't think that's what Abuelita meant.

Do you want to jump rope or stay here?

Jump rope.

Good.

Then let's do this.

[music playing]

Over here.

[splash]

[cries]

Oh, I can't close it.

Just one more push. BOTH: Oh!

We did it!

Thanks, Chelsea.

You're the best.

Yeah, I know.

Looks good, right, Star?

Hmm, I don't know, Nina.

Taking shortcuts is not the same as cleaning up.

Silly Star.

It's OK.

We can play now.

I'm so proud of Nina and Chelsea.

They've been working really hard.

[speaking spanish]

Yes, a few cookies for the workers.

Uh oh.

Nina, you missed a spot.

[gasps]

Look.

Chelsea and I cleaned up.

Very nice, girls.

Are those cookies for us, Abuelita Yolie?

Yes, for all your hard work.

Whoops.

You forgot to pick up Star.

Mami, Mami, wait!

Hm.

[groans]

[crash]

Nina.

[speaking spanish]

Well, uh, I, um, well, we tried to clean up.

Hiding things in the closet is not how you clean up, Nina.

BOTH: I'm sorry.

We were just playing.

Look, there is nothing wrong with having fun

while you clean.

I sometimes do my stretches when I clean.

Abuelita and I love to listen to music.

You should see my dust mop tango.

OK.

I'll try again.

But I think cleaning will be even more

fun with a little bit of help.

Tell you what.

We'll all pitch in this time.

But next time, it's up to you to do your own cleaning‐‐

and no shortcuts.

Deal?

Deal.

[music playing]

[laughs] ‐ Yay!

[laughs]

Great job, girls.

And you still have time for‐‐

BOTH: Jump rope!

Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Mars‐‐

these are the planets we see in the stars.

Mercury, Earth, far away Neptune.

I'm jumping rope cause I cleaned my bedroom.

[laughs]

This is what my room looked like before.

I like it much better now.

Me too. See?

Cleaning your room wasn't so bad after all.

[speaking spanish], Mami.

But next time, no short cuts.

I pinky swear.

Oops!

I guess I missed a toy.

Sorry, Hush.

[music playing]

BOTH: Hush, Hush, little fish.

We are here to make a wish.

We close our eyes, and then we start to make

a wish with all our hearts.

[speaking spanish].

[speaking spanish], Mami.

Cleaning up is OK.

[yawns] But I like making messes too.

[laughs] You're silly.

[speaking spanish], Star.

[speaking spanish]

[music playing]

[music playing]

[humming]

Hi, Nina.

What are you doing?

Hi, Star.

Do you remember our school principal, Mr. Kapur?

Yeah.

Well, he says, all the kids in first grade

get to be news reporters for the day.

Cool.

Flash, breaking news, special reporter Nina is

ready for the story of the day.

For today's top story, I'm going to talk to someone who

lives in this very building.

Me?

[laughs] No, not you, but someone you know.

Come on, Nina.

Tell me who we're reporting on please.

Well, Mr. Kapur wants us to do our report

on someone in our family.

We need to follow them around for a day and ask questions.

Then we report everything we learned in class.

I can't wait to do a story on my [speaking spanish]..

That's brother in Spanish.

Huh?

But you don't have a brother. ‐ True.

But Carlos says I can share Nico with him.

Nico will be my brother for the day.

Come on.

Let's go!

Nina, you're just in time.

I am?

Yes.

I need a partner for my stretch.

It's called the partner boat.

Want to join me?

Well, I don't know.

I'm a reporter today, Abuelita.

[speaking spanish].

But you know a good reporter needs to take deep breaths

and clear her head before asking questions.

Really?

Si.

[speaking spanish]

Here.

Bend your knees, feet in the air,

and put your feet against mine.

Now grab my hands and stretch, stretch.

CARLOS: Hello!

Uh oh, skateboard coming through.

Whoa!

Hey, Nina.

Hola, Abuelita Yolie.

Hola, Carlos.

Maybe you need a dog leash for your skateboard.

[laughs]

Whoops, sorry about that.

So Nina, ready to have a brother for the day?

You bet, Carlos.

Is it OK if I spend the day with Carlos and Nico, Abuelita?

Si, Mija.

Have fun with your new [speaking spanish]..

I will.

And thanks for sharing Nico, Carlos.

Too tight!

Too tight!

So what's Nico's favorite game?

What about favorite food?

Who's his favorite soccer team?

Whoa, Nina.

[bell rings]

You can ask Nico yourself.

Hi, Nico.

Hi, Nina.

[barking]

Hi, Max the dog.

How did you hear us ring the doorbell?

Nina wants to know how you heard the doorbell.

Easy.

I will show you.

[bell rings]

The doorbell is wired to the lights.

When the lights flash, someone is at the door.

Wow!

That's amazing!

And Max helps too.

He runs to the door when he hears the bell.

[barking]

[laughs]

[click]

Ready to be my brother for the day, Nico?

I've got lots of questions.

Ready to be Nina's brother for the day?

She's got lots of questions.

Well, I never had a sister before.

And I've never had a brother before.

Yikes!

Uh oh, looks like Max the dog needs

to go to the bathroom like now!

Catch you later.

Carlos, you can't go.

How am I supposed to ask Nico questions?

I need help with sign language.

You don't always need American Sign

Language to talk with Nico.

‐ You don't? ‐ No.

You can write your question down or draw a picture.

Try it.

Got to go.

[music playing]

[cheering on tv]

Carlos and I watch this show all the time.

Do you watch wrestling?

Wrestling?

No, never.

That's OK.

Be right back.

[music playing]

Woohoo, Nina.

This show looks like fun.

I guess this is what brothers watch.

[growling]

Whoa, what was that?

I don't know, Star.

But a good reporter is not afraid to find out.

[growls]

[laughing]

Cool mask!

Thanks.

This is the mask of my favorite wrestler.

[click]

[laughs]

So Nico, I've got a few questions.

What's your favorite sport?

Hm.

We'll say wrestling.

What's your favorite color?

Favorite food?

Yeah!

Go for it!

[growls]

Uh, um, Nico?

Hello?

What kind of books do you like to read?

Nico, what's your favorite book?

Nico!

Hey, Nina.

I could hear you yelling from the courtyard.

What's wrong?

I'm not a good reporter at all.

Nina says, she's not a good reporter.

Didn't you try writing or drawing a picture for Nico

like I told you?

No.

I couldn't get Nico's attention.

Oh.

You just got to tap Nico on the shoulder to get his attention.

Like this.

Sorry, Nina.

When I watch wrestling, I forget about everything else.

I'm looking at you now.

What are your questions?

OK.

I understand.

Um, what's your favorite food?

No, wait.

How do you know what they're saying

on TV if you can't hear it?

How do you know what they're saying on TV?

I read the words on the TV screen.

They're called captions.

Whoa, really?

[click]

[buzzing]

That's my phone.

I guess Nico uses his phone to text his friends and family.

Yeah.

His phone vibrates so he can feel it when he gets a text.

Great!

I've got to take a picture of that.

[click]

[music playing]

Nico's got to pick up his new fish at the pet vets.

Want to come with us?

Sure.

Let me just go tell Abuelita.

[music playing]

So Nico, how many fish do you have in your aquarium?

I have 15 fish.

I love fish.

Me too!

I have one very special goldfish.

Awesome!

[laughs] Is this the sign for awesome?

Awesome.

[laughter]

Hi, guys.

Hi, Dr. Kapur.

‐ Hi. ‐ Hello.

Hey, there's Vikrum.

I'm going to go say, hi.

I'm here to pick up my new fish.

Sure, Nico.

Be right back.

[music playing]

Hey, Nina.

This is my friend, Louis.

We go to the same deaf school.

Hi, Louis.

[music playing]

[click]

Their hands sure move fast, Nina.

Yeah, it's pretty cool.

They communicate with their hands and their faces.

What do think they're saying?

I think Nico's telling Louis about the wrestling show.

[music playing]

Or they're starting their own team.

[laughter]

Here's your blue tang fish, Nico.

Hi, Louis.

And this is for you.

Picture?

[click]

One last question, Nico.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

A marine biologist.

Cool!

You'll be great.

You love fish, and you're a great swimmer.

[music playing]

You're an awesome reporter.

Thanks!

You're awesome too, Carlos.

Because of you, I had a brother for the day.

Too tight.

Too tight!

And when you ring the doorbell,

the lights flash on and off.

Great job, Nina.

You learned a lot about how deaf people communicate.

Your class will love your report.

Thanks, Mami.

BOTH: Hush, Hush, little fish.

We are here to make a wish.

We close our eyes and then we start to make

a wish with all our heart.

[gurgling]

[speaking spanish].

[speaking spanish], Mami.

Nina, having a brother for the day was fun.

It sure was.

Maybe we can ask Mami and Papi for our own brother tomorrow.

buenas noches, Star.

buenas noches moon
