Pool fun

-Fill it all the way up! 
-Ok! Hold on! More water coming!
-Yay!


-Look my duckling loves swimming! 
-My floaty bunny is doing great too! 
-Can I come in next? The water looks perfect!



-Are you having fun in the pool swimmers? 
-Yes, look we're making waves! 
-Here’s a little sprinkle for extra fun! 
-Heehee! That tickles!



-Wheee! *Splash!* 
-Perfect landing! You made the biggest splash yet!



Ahh, the water feels so nice and cool!



Splish-Splash!!

A Christmas Carol (part 1)

It's Christmas eve. Everybody in town feels the joy and warmth of the season! Except one lonely soul that believes that Christmas is nonsense!...




-Merry Christmas sir!
‐What?... Nonsense! Stop that noise! Can't a man live in peace?
-But sir..
-Go away at once! Christmas they say! Humbug!



-Cratchit, why are you fooling around and what are you doing with that piece of coal?
‐I...I was trying to warm the office Mr. Scrooge... It's quite freezing in here...
-Bah...humbug! You don't need more! Put that back and don't make useless expenses!
-But Mr. Scrooge..
-Get on with your work Cratchit!...

Chocolate Factory (part 3)

 -I believe Violet will be OK! Let's move on to another factory room!
-What's in this room?
-These are my magical ducklings that lay chocolate eggs!
-Can ducklings lay eggs?
-That's why they are magical!




-This is the eggdicator! I'll explain how it works! When an egg is laid it goes down the funnel to the eggdicator! If the egg is good is collected and then gets packed for the market. If it's bad then the drop opens and it goes down the garbage chute!



-Daddy, I want a magical duckling!
-OK dear, I will get you one when we go back home...
-NO! I WANT one of these!
-Mr Wonka, how much do you want for one of these ducklings?
-These are not for sale! She can't have one!



-No! I want one! I want one of these ducklings! I'll get one now!
-Veruca get out of there at once!...



-I want one... noooooooww...
...
-Oh no!
-She was a bad egg!
-Where is my daughter?
-She's gone down the garbage chute!
-Where does this lead?
-To the furnace.
-What? She'll be sizzled like a sausage!
-Not necessarily. She could be stuck just inside the tube. In that case all you need to do is reach in and pull her out.
-Hold on sweetheart, Daddy's coming!
-Hmm... There's gonna be a lot of garbage today!




-Ready to go on? First you must put on these special glasses because the light in here could blind you! This is my latest and greatest invention, the Wonkavision!
-Like television?
-Short of! You see I had this great idea! If with simple TV they can break a photograph into millions of pieces, send it through the air and put them back together at the other end, why can't I do it with a chocolate bar!
-No way!
-Well, let's find out...

Chocolate Factory (part 2)

-Chomp... the grass... chomp... is yummy ... chomp...
-Mmm! That candy is delicious!... Augustus, don't eat too much grass my son!
-Gnam... OK mom... gnam...




-I must admit this tastes so good! Such a rich flavor!
-I would love a chewing gum like that! But be careful mom, you will ruin your diet!
-You are right but it's hard to resist!



-Dad! I want a tree like that in my garden!
-But Veruca, it's not easy to find such trees!...
-No! I want this one right now! You can buy it from Mr Wonka! I want it, I want it!



-Mike! Stop smashing the candy with your feet!
-But he said to enjoy...! It's much more fun than eating them!



-Look over there! I can see some tiny people! Who are they Mr. Wonka?
-These are the Oompa Loompas!
-The Oompa Loompas?
-Yes, they are the workers of my factory! They are very small but so good!



-Oh, there are so many of them!
-Yes! Some years ago I travelled to Loompaland looking for exotic new flavours! There in the jungle I found the Oompa Loompas who lived in tree houses to escape from the terrible beasts that lived below! So I took them with me to work in my factory! Here they live safely in peace and eat their favourite cocoa beans! They are such wonderful and loyal workers! I must warn you, however, that they are very mischievous. Always making jokes!
(Veruca) - Dad I want an Oompa Loompa right now!...

Chocolate Factory (part 1)

 This is the story of an ordinary boy named Charlie Bucket. He was not faster, stronger, or more clever than other children and his family was not rich, or powerful… in fact, they barely had enough to eat. But Charlie was the luckiest boy in the entire world- he just didn’t know it yet...




Everyday on his way to school Charlie stops to smell the sweet chocolate aroma coming out from a huge chocolate factory. The owner of the factory is a strange man named Willy Wonka. No one has seen him for years. Also nobody ever goes in, and nobody ever comes out. The only thing that comes out of that place is the candy, already packed and addressed! But who works in this big factory? What a mystery!



One day Charlie saw an announcement from Willy Wonka!

'DEAR PEOPLE OF THE WORLD :
I, Willy Wonka, have decided to allow five children to visit my factory. These lucky five will be shown around personally by me and will learn all the secrets and the magic of my factory.
Five golden tickets have been hidden underneath the ordinary wrapping paper of five ordinary Wonka bars.
In addition, one of these children shall receive a special prize beyond anything you could ever imagine. Good luck to all. And happy hunting!'




Charlie lives in a tiny house with his parents and four grandparents.
-Willy Wonka has announced that he will accept five children in his factory! He has hidden five golden tickets in the Wonka chocolate bars!
-Wouldn't it be great if you found one of these tickets Charlie? I used to work there, it's a magical place!
-Oh Grandpa Joe! That would be awesome but... I only get one bar a year for my birthday...
-Well it's your birthday next week!

Halloween 2023

 -Ready for trick or treat?
-Yes!
-You are a lobster! Very cute!
-Thanks but... I don't think I could scare anyone with this costume! 
-Don't say that! Let's see what we can do...



-I believe there is a surprise for you in this chest Mr. Pirate!
-It looks like a treasure chest! Let's open it then!...



-Boo!!...
-YIKES!!!..



Happy Halloween!

Harry Potter (part 3)

 -We are lost!
-I think we're not supposed to be here! It's the forbidden third floor corridor!
-I hear steps!
-Quickly, let's hide in here!
-It's locked!...
-Leave it to me!...ALOHOMORA!... OK, get in!



-Oh no, look!
-It was locked for a good reason!
-Ahhhhhhhh! RUN!



-Phew... that was close...
-Why on earth do they have a giant three headed dog locked up in a school?
-It was standing on a trapdoor! Maybe it's guarding something...



-Hagrid, why there is a giant three headed dog in the school?
-What? You know about Fluffy?
-That thing has a name?
-Of course he has! Actually he is mine! I lent him to Dumbledore to guard the...hmm... nothing... It's top secret!
-We knew he was guarding something important! Why?Does someone want to steal it?
-Maybe Snape is trying to steal it!
-Nonsense! Professor Snape is a Hogwarts teacher!
-But he is so strange and mysterious!
-Well, stop meddling around you three! What that dog is guarding is strictly between Professor Dumbledore and Nicholas Flamel... Oh I shouldn't have said that...
-Who is Nicholas Flamel?
-No more questions!

Harry Potter (part 2)

 -Welcome to Hogwarts. I am Professor McGonagall. Firstly you must be sorted into your houses. They are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Here, your house will be like your family. Your triumphs will earn you house points. Any rule breaking, and you will lose points. At the end of the year, the house with the most points is awarded the house cup. The sorting ceremony will begin momentarily.




-So it's true that Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts! I'm Malfoy, Drago Malfoy! You must know that some wizarding families are better than others, Potter. Don’t want to go making friends with the wrong sort.
-I think I can tell who the wrong sort are for myself, thanks.



-The sorting ceremony is about to begin. When I call your name, you will come forth, I shall place the sorting hat on your head, and you will be sorted into your houses. Before that, Professor Dumbledore would like to say a few words.



-We welcome the first years to Hogwarts. Please note that the dark forest is strictly forbidden to all students. Also remember that that the 3rd floor corridor on the right is out of bounds to everyone. Thank you! After the ceremony a small feast will follow!



-Hermione Granger!
-(Sorting Hat) Hmm.. OK then... GRYFFINDOR!!



-Draco Malfoy!
-(Sorting Hat) SLYTHERIN!!



-Ronald Weasley!
-(Sorting Hat) Another Weasley! I know just what to do with you... GRYFFINDOR!!



-Harry Potter!
-(Sorting Hat) Hmm... that's quite difficult... Where to put you? I see a great mind and plenty of courage and talent!
-Not Slitherin, not Slitherin...
-Are you sure? You could become great there! Well then... better be... GRYFFINDOR!!



-Let the feast begin!
-Wow! Where did all these come from?
-I don't know but they are delicious!!



-Now let's go to the Gryffindor dormitories, this is the most direct path!
-Oh look! The paintings are moving!
-And they talk too!
-Also keep an eye on the staircases...they like to change!
-Wow!



-This is the Gryffindor Common Room. The boys dormitories are upstairs and down to your left. The girls are the same on your right. You'll find that your belongings have already been brought up.



- So... Mr. Potter... Our...new...celebrity! Tell me, what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?
-... I... don't know sir...
-Well, let's try again. Where would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?
-I... I don't know sir...
-Pity. Clearly, fame isn't everything...



-Wingardium Leviosa!
-Well done Miss Granger! Splendid!



-Welcome to your first flying lesson.Everyone step up to the left side of their broomstick. Stick your right hand over the broom and say, "Up."
(class)
-Up!
-Up!...
(Harry)
-Up! Wow!



-Oh no!
-Neville... Neville...
-Help...!
-Mr. Longbottom! You're not supposed to take off, yet! Come back down this instant!
-Ahhh! Help!...



-Is he alright?
-Oh no! It's a broken wrist.  I must take Mr. Longbottom to the hospital wing. While I am away keep your feet firmly on the ground! If I see a single broom on the air you will be in trouble!



-That fool boy, Neville, dropped his Remembrall!
-Give it here Malfoy!
-No, I think I will leave it somewhere for him to find... maybe on the roof!
-Give it here, Malfoy, or I'll knock you off your broom!
-Is that so Potter? Here, catch it then!...



-Yay!
-Great catch Harry!
-Oh, that was wicked, Harry!
