JE M'APPELLE DOMINIQUE.
Michael says AND TODAY WE'RE

BUILDING TWO PLAYGROUNDS
CELEBRATING BRITISH COLUMBIA

Dominique says BC AND PEI
ARE ON OPPOSITE
ENDS OF THE COUNTRY,
BUT THEY BOTH HAVE
A LOT IN COMMON.
Michael says THEY'RE BOTH COASTAL PROVINCES,
HAVE BEAUTIFUL SEA LIFE,
AND NATURAL BEAUTY.
Dominique says FROM ROCKY MOUNTAIN RANGES
TO RED SANDY SHORES,
THESE ARE BOTH
AMAZING PROVINCES.
AND GIV'ER IS
HERE TO CELEBRATE
They both say ALL OF THAT.
Michael says WE HAVE JUST THREE DAYS
TO BUILD TWO PLAYGROUNDS
TO SHOW OF THESE
INCREDIBLE PROVINCES.
Dominique says SO START YOUR TIMERS.
Michael says GIV'ER'S CELEBRATING
BRITISH COLUMBIA AND PEI.

WITH THEIR COMMUNITY.
Kids say LET'S GIVER!

WE'RE GOING TO DO
THE PEI AND BC PLAYGROUND.
Jaedon says WE'RE WORKING ON TWO PARKS
FOR THE INITIAL PROVINCES,
BC AND PEI.
Chaad says BRITISH COLUMBIA AND
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND.
Jaedon says THEY ARE INITIAL PROVINCES
BECAUSE THEY GO
BY THEIR INITIALS.
Michael says WHO'S FROM PEI?
Myah raises her hand and says MOI.
Michael says YOU ARE.
Myah says I'M FROM PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
AND IT'S AWESOME.
I LIKE THE CONFEDERATION BRIDGE
BECAUSE IT'S THE LONGEST
BRIDGE OVER ICE WATER.
AND PEI, YOU CAN GO TO THE BEACH
AND THE SAND IS RED.
PEI IS REALLY COOL.
Pictures of PEI appear.
Michael says AND WHO'S FROM BC?
Jaedon raises his hand and says ME!
Michael says TADA!
Jaedon says I'M FROM BC AND IT'S
A BEAUTIFUL PROVINCE
BECAUSE IT'S GOT FORESTS,
IT'S GOT RIVERS,
IT'S GOT SOME GREAT ANIMALS.
IF I HAD TO MAKE UP
A SONG ABOUT BC,
I WOULD SAY,
BC IS BEAUTIFUL,
BC IS GREAT,
IT'S GOT SOME NICE TREES...
AND... A GATE.
Ava says TODAY WE SAT DOWN WITH MICHAEL
AND WE SHOWED HIM OUR IDEAS.
Michael says SO I SEE YOU'VE ALL
BROUGHT SOME DESIGNS
AND IDEAS FOR THE PLAYGROUND.
The kids show Michael their sketches.
Evee says IT'S A GIANT BEAR CLIMBER.
Michael says GIANT BEAR CLIMBER,
I LOVE IT.
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT BEAR,
DID YOU DRAW THIS?
Evee says YES.
Michael says IT'S A GOOD BEAR.
Ava says IT'S A ROCKIES MURAL.
Michael says OH, PERFECT.
I LOVE IT.
Ava says I DECIDED TO DO
A ROCKY MOUNTAIN MURAL
BECAUSE BRITISH COLUMBIA
HAS LOTS
OF BEAUTIFUL STREAMS
AND MOUNTAINS
AND IT'S REALLY,
REALLY PRETTY THERE,
AND I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO.
Michael says SO WHAT DO YOU GOT THERE JAEDON?
Jaedon says IT'S LIKE A TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
SO THESE FOUR CORNERS
ARE TOTEM POLES.
Michael says OKAY.
Jaedon says WITH LIKE...
Michael says OH I SEE, OKAY, YEAH.
Jaedon says ALMOST LIKE TREE POLES
THAT YOU CLIMB ON.
Michael says YEAH, SURE.
Myah says THIS IS MY WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says NICE! LOOK AT THE SPARKLES,
LOOKS GREAT.
Alex says MY IDEA FOR A PARK WAS
A PADDLE ART PROJECT.
Michael says OKAY, WHAT HAVE
YOU GOT THERE CHADD?
Chadd says I WANT A GRIZZLY BEAR SCULPTURE.
Michael says AH, NEAT, OKAY,
GOOD, EXCELLENT.
I LOVE IT.
(music plays)
Michael says THE GIV'ER TEAM DESIGNED
TWO PLAYGROUNDS TODAY
TO CELEBRATE OUR COASTAL
PLAYGROUNDS, BC AND PEI.
IN BC, JAEDON WANTS TO DO A
TOTEM POLE PLAY STRUCTURE.
ALEXANDER WANTS A
CANOE PADDLE ART.
EVEE WANTS A BIG
BEAR TO CLIMB ON.
AVA WANTS TO DO A
MURAL OF THE ROCKIES.
CHADD WANTS A GRIZZLY
BEAR SCULPTURE.
IN PEI, MYAH WANTS TO DO
A GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
An animation shows the whole design of the playground.
Michael says THESE ARE SOME GREAT
IDEAS FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA
AND PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
PLAYGROUND.
BUT IT'S A LOT OF WORK
TO DO IN THREE DAYS.
DO YOU THINK WE CAN DO IT?
The kids shout
YEAH!
Michael says ARE YOU READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says WELL THEN...
They all join their hands and say LET'S GIV'ER!
Michael says LET'S GO!
[CHEERING]
Myah says DAY ONE!
Ava says TIME TO GET TO WORK.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
SO THIS IS WHERE OUR BEAR
CLIMBER IS GOING TO GO.
Chadd says AND WE GOT TO SPRAY PAINT
WHERE THE BEAR WOULD GO.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Ava accidentally directs the spray towards Alex.
Alex says AH, I'M GREEN!
Michael says YOU'VE GOT TO POINT
IT STRAIGHT DOWN!
Ava says OH!
(LAUGHING)
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Evee says THE SPRAY PAINT SMELLS
LIKE GREEN APPLES.
Michael says WHAT DO YOU THINK
WE SHOULD NAME IT?
Alex says TIMMY!
Jaedon says TIMOTHY!
Evee says GREEN APPLES!
Ava says GREEN APPLE IS THE
NAME WE CALL OUR BEAR.
Myah says GREEN APPLE GOT HER NAME
BECAUSE EVEE THOUGHT
THAT THE SPRAY PAINT
SMELLED LIKE GREEN APPLES.
The kids say C'MON, MICHAEL!
Michael drives a forklift.
Evee says PUT IT RIGHT HERE.
Myah says ROAR!
GREEN APPLE'S COMING FOR YOU.
The kids uncover the bear.
Michael says A BEAR!
Alex says OH IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
The kids say IT'S NICE.
LOOK AT THAT THING.
A boy says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER!
An animation shows the design for the totem pole climber.
Alex says JAEDON AND I MET UP
WITH MICHAEL
AND WE MADE
A TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLES ARE MADE
BY THE FIRST NATIONS
PEOPLE OF BC.
THEY'RE CALLED
THE FIRST NATIONS
BECAUSE THEY WERE
HERE BEFORE CANADA
EVEN BECAME CANADA.
TOTEM POLES ARE USED
TO SHARE STORIES
ABOUT FAMILIES, AND
IMPORTANT EVENTS.
THE TOTEM POLES
I DESIGNED CELEBRATE
MY FAVOURITE THINGS ABOUT BC.
Alex says PRETTY TOTEM POLES!
Michael says ALL RIGHT?
EXACTLY, THAT'S THE UPPER PART,
THIS IS THE LOWER PART.
Jaedon says WE HAD TO DRILL
THE TOTEM POLE IN.
Alex says LIKE A TORNADO.
[WHIRRING]
TORNADO!
Michael says AND ON TO THE LEDGE.
[WHIRRING]
Michael says SHOULD I HOLD IT UP
AND YOU GUYS TELL ME
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE?
Jaedon says SURE.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Alex says NICE!
Michael says NICELY DONE.
NICE.
They all high-five.
Jaedon says THERE WE GO.
MICHAEL YOU GOT TO KEEP
HOLDING THAT, OKAY?
Michael says YOU GUYS ARE COMING
BACK THOUGH, OKAY?
Alex says WE'LL BE BACK
IN FIVE HOURS.
Michael says BRING ME A POPSICLE.
Alex says MAYBE.
Michael says GLASS OF WATER EVEN?
A girl says PADDLE ART.
An animation shows the design for the paddle art.
Jaedon says HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO,
CANOES WERE THE MAIN
WAY PEOPLE GOT AROUND
IN BRITISH COLUMBIA.
Alex says MY IDEA FOR THE PARK
WAS A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT
CANOE PADDLES
GETTING PAINTED.
Evee says WE MET DOMINIQUE
AND SHE SHOWED US
HOW TO PAINT ON PADDLES.
Dominique says I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS
BUT I'M PRETTY EXCITED
TO REPLICATE
OR TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING
THAT I CAN REALLY
I CAN IDENTIFY TO
AND PUT ON THE PADDLE.
IS YOUR BRAIN, THE
CREATIVE PROCESS FLOWING?
Everyone says YEAH!
Dominique says YEAH? ALL RIGHT,
WELL GRAB A PADDLE.
Myah says I'VE NEVER PAINTED A PADDLE
IN MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE.
AND IT'S KIND OF COOL.
A girl says GIANT BEAR CLIMBER.
An animation shows the design for the giant bear climber.
Evee says HAMMER DRILL TIME.
Michael says SO THAT IS THE DRILL
WE ARE GOING TO USE.
IT IS A VERY BIG DRILL.
IT'S DESIGNED FOR DRILLING
BIG HOLES IN CONCRETE.
[LOUD WHIRRING]
Ava says USING THE HAMMER
DRILL WAS LIKE NEW,
I WAS VERY UNFAMILIAR,
BUT REALLY COOL BECAUSE
IT'S LIKE REALLY HEAVY
AND IT WAS JUST LIKE
DRILLING INTO THE CEMENT.
I CAN'T MOVE IT AT ALL.
Michael says THAT'S GOOD, THAT
MEANS THAT THE BEAR
CAN'T MOVE IT ALL EITHER.
OKAY, BEAR SECURE.
Ava says HALF WAY THROUGH DAY ONE.
(music plays)
Jaedon says OVER TO YOU, PEI.
Chadd says GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
An animation shows the design for the giant whale climber.
Myah says LOTS OF WHALES
VISIT PEI EACH YEAR.
MY FAVOURITE IS
THE KILLER WHALE
BECAUSE I LIKE ITS NAME
AND ITS COLOURS.
MICHAEL, WANT TO BUILD
MY WHALE FROM PEI.
Michael says WE COULD USE THAT.
Chadd and Myah say WHOA.
Michael points at a large metal structure in the shape of a whale.
Myah says CHADD AND I WE PUT IN
THE WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says WE'RE GOING TO GO SLOW, OKAY?
Chadd says IT WAS FUN
TO BRING THE WHALE DOWN.
'CAUSE YOU HAD TO MOVE
THESE DIFFERENT LEVERS
AND I REALLY DIDN'T
KNOW WHICH ONE TO PULL.
AND THEN I JUST PUSHED
IT UP FOR A MISTAKE.
IT'S OKAY TO MAKE MISTAKES
BECAUSE WE GOT IT IN
THE PERFECT PLACE.
With the help of a crane, they put the whale in place.
Michael says THAT LOOKS AMAZING.
NICELY DONE!
THE GIV'ER TEAM DID SO WELL
BUILDING ALL THE CLIMBERS
THAT I DECIDED TO TAKE THEM
TO A REAL CLIMBING GYM.
[CROSS-TALK]
Michael says ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT GIV'ER
TEAM, THIS IS MY FRIEND JODY.
JODY IS GOING TO SHOW
US SOME ROCK CLIMBING.
Jody is in his thirties, clean-shaven and with short wavy brown hair. He wears black Bermuda shorts and a gingham shirt.
He says YEAH, YOU GUYS WANT TO TRY
SOME ROCK CLIMBING?
Everyone says YEAH!
Myah says THEN IT WAS TEAM RED'S TURN.
She does bicep curls and says BC AND PEI, MY ROCK
CLIMBING MUSCLES.
Michael says CLIMB!
GO TEAM RED!
Myah and Jaedon climb up the wall.
(music plays)
Chadd says THEN IT WAS TEAM
BLUE'S TURN TO GO.
Chadd and Evee climb up the wall next.
(music plays)
Chadd says USING A WALKER IS NO
DIFFERENT THAN WALKING
EXCEPT THAT YOU'RE
LIKE IN SOMETHING.
GOING UP!
GOING DOWN!
YEAH!
Alex says TEAM YELLOW!
YEAH!
Alex and Ava climb up the wall.
(music plays)
Everyone says GIV'ER!
Evee says END OF DAY ONE.
Michael says END OF DAY ONE AND
WE GOT A GREAT START
ON BOTH COASTS OF OUR
CANADA PLAYGROUND.
BUT WE'VE GOT A
LOT TO DO TOMORROW.
SO I'LL SEE YOU THEN.
Chadd says CAN'T WAIT FOR DAY TWO.
(music plays)
Ava says GOOD MORNING, IT'S DAY TWO.
Michael says GOOD MORNING.
BEGINNING OF DAY TWO.
HOW'S EVERYBODY FEELING?
Everyone says GOOD!
Michael says FANTASTIC.
IN BC, WE HAVE TO FINISH THE
TOTEM POLE PLAY STRUCTURE.
PAINT AVA'S ROCKIES MURAL,
GET STARTED ON CHAD'S
BEAR SCULPTURE,
AND FINISH ALEXANDER'S PADDLES.
IN PEI, WE HAVE TO
ASSEMBLE THE WHALE CLIMBER
AND GET STARTED
ON THE PEI MURAL.
WHOO! TWO PLAYGROUNDS EQUALS
TWO TIMES THE WORK.
ARE YOU READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WELL THEN...
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Ava says WE'RE BUILDING BC AND PEI.
Evee says OVER TO YOU BC.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER!
WE HAD THESE WOODEN
PLANKS THAT WE PUT ON.
ALMOST LIKE, DIAGONAL,
SO THEY LOOK KIND OF WEIRD.
THEN WE SCREWED THEM
IN WITH THESE BOLTS.
Alex says THE FIRST ONE WE DID,
WE DRILLED IT IN THE TOP.
Michael says DO YOU WANT TO TAKE A LOOK?
OH YEAH, PERFECT, FLUSH.
Alex says BUT THEN I REALIZED THAT, WHAT
WOULD WE FILL IT UP WITH?
WHAT ARE WE GOING
TO FILL THIS WITH?
Michael says YOU KNOW WHAT?
THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.
Jaedon says WHAT IF WE DID IT UNDERNEATH?
Michael says THAT'S A GREAT SOLUTION.
OKAY, SO THAT'S WHAT WE ARE
GOING TO DO FROM NOW ON.
Alex says SO THEN WE MADE THE REST
OF THE HOLES ON THE BOTTOM
SO WE WOULDN'T GET
HURT OR ANYTHING.
Michael says NICELY DONE.
YOU GUYS WANT TO GIVE
THIS THING A TRY?
Alex says YEAH!
Jaedon says SURE!
They all walk on the poles.
Jaedon says WORKS PRETTY GOOD.
Chadd says OVER TO YOU BC.
A girl says ROCKIES MURAL.
An animation shows the design of the Rockies mural.
Jaedon says BRITISH COLUMBIA
IS WORLD FAMOUS
BECAUSE OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES.
THEY ARE 76 MILLION YEARS OLD
AND STRETCH ALL THE WAY
THROUGH BC, ALBERTA,
AND DOWN INTO THE UNITED STATES.
An animated map shows the location of the Rockies.
Dominique says SALUT, LE GANG!
Ava says TODAY, ME AND CHADD MET
DOMINIQUE
AND SHE SHOWED US
HOW TO SPRAY PAINT,
USING THE ROCKIES MURAL.
Chadd says WE SPRAY PAINTED MOUNTAINS.
AND THE MOUNTAINS
HAVE WATER AND CLOUDS
AND SKY ON THEM.
Ava says WITH MY MURAL, I WAS
TRYING TO MAKE IT LOOK
AS MUCH AS BC AS I COULD.
I WAS JUST TRYING TO
MAKE IT REPRESENT BC
WITH ALL THE MOUNTAINS,
THE ROCKS, THE SKY.
Chaad says IT MADE
BRITISH COLUMBIA
LOOK BEAUTIFUL.
(music plays)
Michael says WE HAD A BIT MORE
ROOM IN OUR PLAYGROUND
THAN WE THOUGHT WE WOULD.
SO JAEDON THOUGHT
IT WOULD BE COOL
TO BUILD A BONUS CLIMBER.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE
BC'S FAMOUS FORESTS.
TO DO THAT WE NEED TO PUT
HOLES INTO THE GROUND.
ALL RIGHT, WE ARE GOING TO MAKE
OUR ROOTS WITH THIS THING.
HAVE YOU USED ONE
OF THESE BEFORE?
He points at skid steer.
Jaedon says NO!
Michael says OKAY SO THIS IS A SKID
STEER WITH AN AUGER BIT.
Jaedon says THE SKID STEER
WAS SO MUCH FUN.
IT WAS ALMOST
LIKE A VIDEO GAME,
'CAUSE YOU HAD TWO JOYSTICKS.
ONE OF THEM WAS TO USE THE ARM
AND THEN ONE OF
THEM WAS TO DRIVE.
I'VE NEVER DRIVEN BEFORE
SO IT WAS PRETTY COOL.
IT FELT LIKE I WAS
DRIVING A SPACE SHIP.
SO WHEN THE CAR WENT
UP I WAS LIKE, WOW,
I'M UP NOW, OKAY,
AND DRILL, DRILL.
SO I LEARNED.
Michael says YOU'RE A NATURAL.
Jaedon says THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER.
WHOA.
IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE FUN?
Michael says YEAH.
[LAUGHING]
Jaedon says ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
Michael says NOBODY TALKS ABOUT
IT, BUT IT IS.
Jaedon says THE REASON I FOUND
IT SO MUCH FUN IS
'CAUSE I'VE NEVER
DONE IT BEFORE.
NICE HOLE.
Michael says GREAT HOLE, AWESOME.
NICELY DONE BUDDY.
THANKS.
(music plays)
Chadd says OVER TO YOU PEI.
A girl says POTATO ART.
EVEN THOUGH
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
IS THE SMALLEST PROVINCE,
WE GROW MORE POTATOES THAN
ANYWHERE ELSE IN CANADA.
Dominique says WELCOME TO PEI GUYS!
Everyone says YEAH!
Myah says I THINK I'M GOING TO
PAINT WITH POTATOES NOW
BECAUSE PEI HAS
A LOT OF POTATOES.
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Myah says MY SHIRT IS BLUE
BECAUSE I WAS PAINTING
AND IT'S ON MY PANTS.
AND I GOT KIND OF MESSY
BECAUSE WE'RE PAINING
WITH POTATOES FROM PEI.
Ava says DOING ART MAKES ME FEEL LIKE
I'M KIND OF IN MY HAPPY PLACE.
IT'S VERY PEACEFUL, VERY FUN.
Jaedon says YOU WOULDN'T EXPECT TO BE
PAINTING WITH A VEGETABLE.
I USUALLY EAT POTATOES,
NOT DIP THEM IN PAINT.
Chadd says MY HAIR IS BLUE BECAUSE
WHEN WE WERE PAINTING
I GOT ALL MESSY WITH THE PAINT.
EVEN MY WALKER GOT PAINT ON IT.
Michael says MIDDLE OF DAY TWO AND
THIS SITE IS BUZZING.
WE GOT OUR SPRAY PAINT
MURAL HAPPENING OVER HERE,
OUR TOTEM POLE CLIMBER
IS LOOKING GREAT GUYS.
FILTER CLOTH IS GOING DOWN.
WE'VE GOT OUR STUMP JUMPERS
BEING SANDED BEHIND YOU.
AND OUR FOREST OF TREES
IS LOOKING AMAZING.
AND WE ALSO HAVE
GREEN APPLE THE BEAR.
AND NONE OF IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE
WITHOUT THE HELP OF ALL
OUR INCREDIBLE VOLUNTEERS.
THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!
The volunteers cheer.
Michael says WONDER WHAT'S GOING ON IN PEI?
He shouts HOW'S IT GOING IN PEI?
[CHEERING]
Ava says IT'S REALLY NICE TO SEE
EVERYONE GIVING BACK.
Dominique says BECAUSE IT WAS
SO HOT, THE GIV'ER TEAM
FOUND A FUN WAY TO COOL DOWN.
Ava says WATER FIGHT.
[SCREAMING]
The kids run after each other with water balloons and water guns.
Chadd says I GOT SOAKING WET.
Jaedon says I GOT CHADD REALLY GOOD.
[LAUGHTER, SCREAMING]
Chadd says IT WAS PRETTY FUN
BECAUSE THE WATER
WAS NICE AND COLD.
AND IT'S A HOT DAY.
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
[CHEERING]
Myah says TIME TO GET TO WORK.
Jaedon says GRIZZLY SCULPTURE.
An animation shows the design for the grizzly sculpture.
Michael says JOSH IS GOING TO SHOW US
HOW TO CARVE A BIG BEAR
LIKE YOUR DESIGN CHAD.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.
Jaedon says SO WE MET JOSH
WHICH WAS SUPER COOL
'CAUSE HE SHOWED US HOW TO TAKE
ALL THE BARK OFF OF A TREE.
Josh is in his thirties, with long blond hair in a ponytail and a stubble. He wears brown Bermuda shorts, a pale blue T-shirt, a cap hat and sunglasses.
Josh peels a thick log with a shovel.
Chadd says JOSH IS GREAT AT PEELING LOGS.
Jaedon says THAT IS SO COOL!
Alex says THAT'S AMAZING!
Ava says WE USED A TOOL
CALLED A SPUD
TO DEBARK THE TREE.
Chadd says PEELING THE BARK
WAS KIND OF HARD.
The kids take turns to debark the tree trunk.
Josh says NICE.
Chadd says BUT I REALLY LIKE DOING IT.
Josh says YUP, GOOD,
NOW PULL IT AWAY.
Ava says THE DEBARKING THE TREE
FOR MAKING THE TOTEM
POLE WAS SO COOL.
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I WOULD
EVER BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
Michael says SO, THIS IS GREAT.
BUT MY QUESTION IS,
DOES ANYBODY SEE A BEAR HERE?
Everyone says NO!
Jaedon says AND THEN WE SPRAY
PAINTED THE AREAS
OF THE FACE,
THE ARMS, THE LEGS.
I'M STARTING TO
SEE THE INNER BEAR.
THE BEST PART WAS WHEN WE
ALL GOT TO POSE LIKE BEARS.
[GROWLING]
(music plays)
Josh starts carving the bear with a chainsaw.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
A girl says NOW IT WAS OUR TURN
TO USE CHAIN SAWS.
WE MADE STUMP JUMPERS
FOR THE TOTEM POLE
PLAY STRUCTURES.
Michael says OKAY, HAS ANYBODY USED
A CHAIN SAW BEFORE?
Myah says NO.
Michael says WOULD YOU LIKE TO HOLD
THIS FOR A SECOND?
HOLD IT UP HERE.
Ava says I WAS REALLY
EXCITED BUT NERVOUS.
IT WAS REALLY COOL
TO USE A NEW TOOL.
[LOUD BUZZING]
Michael helps Ava use the chainsaw to cut a beam.
Ava says HALFWAY THROUGH ON THE CUT
WE PUSHED TOO HARD
DOWN ON THE CHAINSAW.
SO IT STOPPED.
SO THEN WE HAD TO TAKE IT
BACK UP, PUT IT BACK DOWN.
[LOUD BUZZING]
LET THE CHAINSAW USE ITS
OWN WEIGHT TO BRING IT DOWN.
GOOD.
Michael says YEAH?
AND WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Ava says COOL!
USING A CHAINSAW MADE ME
FEEL REALLY MATURE
BECAUSE, UM, WELL...
IT'S A REALLY, LIKE,
DANGEROUS TOOL.
BUT IT WAS REALLY FUN.
Myah says THEN IT WAS MY TURN
TO USE THE CHAINSAW.
IT WAS PRETTY FUN
BECAUSE I'VE NEVER USED
A CHAIN SAW BEFORE.
WHEN I USED THE CHAINSAW,
IT MADE ME FEEL STRONG.
[LOUD BUZZING]
Michael says AND?
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT?
Myah says WOW!
Michael says IT'S PRETTY
AWESOME ISN'T IT.
YEAH!
Myah says CHAINSAW!
Jaedon says BACK TO PEI.
A kid says WHALE CLIMBER!
Michael says THE WHALE IS AMAZING.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS
THINK OF THIS THING?
Evee says IT'S HUMONGOUS.
Michael says IT'S HUMONGOUS.
Evee says MYAH AND I PUT THE TONGUE
ON THE WHALE CLIMBER.
Myah says I'M DRAWING THIS TO YOU.
Michael says WHAT'S THAT?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?
Myah says RED APPLE.
Michael says RED APPLE IS WHAT
WE'RE CALLING THE FISH?
"IT'S NOT A FISH MICHAEL."
Myah says MY WHALE, IT'S NAME IS
RED APPLE, IT'S A GIRL.
(music plays)
Chadd says END OF DAY TWO.
Jaedon says WHEN I LOOK AROUND THE PARK,
I FEEL PRETTY PROUD
'CAUSE WE MADE EVERYTHING.
Michael climbs up the whale climber and says END OF DAY TWO AND WE
HAD A WHALE OF A TIME.
IN PEI, WE FINISHED
MYAH'S WHALE CLIMBER
AND GOT A GOOD START ON THE
MURAL PAINTED WITH POTATOES.
OVER IN BC WE WORKED ON
JAEDON'S TOTEM
POLE PLAY STRUCTURE
AND THE BONUS FOREST CLIMBER.
PAINTED AVA'S MURAL
OF THE ROCKIES
AND PUT IN SO MANY WOOD CHIPS.
BUT WE'VE GOT A LOT TO DO
BEFORE OUR GRAND OPENING.
SEE YOU THEN.
(music plays)
Jaedon says FROM ONE COAST TO ANOTHER,
THIS PARK IS AWESOME.
Ava says SEE YOU TOMORROW FOR
OUR GRAND OPENING.
(music plays)
Chadd says DAY THREE.
Myah says GO GIV'ER!
Jaedon says IT'S A RACE TO THE FINISH LINE.
Everyone says MICHAEL HELP US!
Michael says YOU GUYS ARE STUCK
IN A WHALE.
Everyone says YEAH!
Chadd says WE WERE BEING
SWALLOWED BY A WHALE.
Michael says ALL RIGHT, BEGINNING
OF DAY THREE,
YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
LET'S GO!
WE HAVE TO PUT
WOOD CHIPS IN PEI.
AND IN BC, ATTACH THE
PADDLES TO THE WALLS
AND INSTALL THE STUMP JUMPERS
FOR THE TOTEM POLE
PLAY STRUCTURE.
WE ALSO HAVE TO MOVE IN
CHADD'S GRIZZLY SCULPTURE.
SO, YOU GUYS READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says WELL THEN...
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Michael says LET'S GO!
Ava says THE WEATHER THE PAST FEW
DAYS HAS BEEN REALLY HOT.
BUT TODAY IT'S STARTED
TO RAIN LIKE CRAZY.
TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon says MY FAVOURITE PART
OF THE PLAYGROUND
IS PROBABLY THE
TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon digs a hole and says WE'LL FIND TREASURE?
Michael says I DON'T KNOW,
YOU TELL ME?
LET'S CHECK IT OUT.
Jaedon says WE HAD THIS REALLY BIG BLUE LOG
THAT ME AND MYAH
PUT INTO A HOLE.
SLOWLY DROP IT.
WIGGLE, WIGGLE, WIGGLE.
Michael says NICE,
HOW DOES THAT LOOK?
Jaedon says LOOKS GOOD.
I FOUND TREASURE.
Michael says YOU DID?
Jaedon says A BIG ROCK.
Myah says WE FOUND LIKE A MOON
ROCK, LIKE THIS BIG.
IT WAS FUN AT THE END
BECAUSE WE GOT TO STAND IN
IT AND DO A STATUE POSE.
Jaedon says IT'S KIND OF REAL.
Michael says IT'S SO LIFE-LIKE.
Myah says AGH!
Jaedon says OH GOD!
WHOA.
I THINK A LOT OF KIDS ARE
GOING TO APPRECIATE THIS PARK.
(music plays)
Chadd says GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says WE NEED TO GET SOME WOOD CHIPS
IN AROUND THE BASE OF OUR WHALE.
AND THE EASIEST WAY
TO MOVE A LOT OF WOOD
CHIPS IN QUICKLY...
IS WITH THAT.
Michael points at a loader.
Ava says THE FIRST TIME HE TOLD ME
THAT I WAS GOING TO BE USING IT,
I WAS KIND OF REALLY SCARED.
I THOUGHT I WAS GOING
TO HIT SOMEONE FOR SURE.
AND IT WAS SO WEIRD,
IT WAS JUST LIKE
A WHOLE NEW THING
AND ALL THE CONTROLS WERE
JUST SO UNFAMILIAR AND WEIRD.
Michael says ALL RIGHT, STOP THERE.
THAT'S GOOD.
OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE,
THAT'S IT.
LITTLE BIT MORE.
THAT'S IT.
Ava says IT'S REALLY WEIRD
AND EXCITING.
Michael says HOW ARE YOU FEELING
ABOUT THIS THING?
Ava says MORE COMFORTABLE.
Michael says THAT'S GOOD BECAUSE WE'VE GOT
A LOT OF WOOD CHIPS TO MOVE.
COME WITH ME.
Alex says OVER TO BC.
A kid says PADDLER TIME!
Michael says WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
Chadd says WE'RE PUTTING
PADDLES ON THE WALL.
[WHIRRING]
They drill the paddles to the wall.
Chadd says THE PADDLE WAS BLUE,
THE WALKER WAS BLUE,
MY PANTS WERE BLUE,
MY SHIRT WAS BLUE,
AND I'M BLUE TOO.
GOOD THING BLUE'S
MY FAVOURITE COLOUR.
Alex says THIS IS AN IMPRESSION OF ME.
UGH-UGH-UGH...
[WHIRRING]
SO MAYBE WE COULD DO THIS
AND THEN, FOR THE NEXT ONE,
WE COULD PUT THAT
FACING AGAINST THAT
AND THEN
WE COULD KEEP DOING...
Michael says ALTERNATING?
Alex says YEAH.
Michael says I LOVE IT.
Alex says IT MEANT A LOT TO DO MY IDEA.
Evee says I LOVE OUR PLAYGROUND.
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Myah says IT'S JUST REALLY FUN TO DO
STUFF TOGETHER WITH MY FRIENDS.
Ava says IT'S A RACE TO THE FINISH LINE.
Everyone puts the final touches to the playgrounds.
Everyone says TEN, NINE, EIGHT,
SEVEN, SIX,
FIVE, FOUR, THREE,
TWO, ONE!
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WE ARE DONE.
THE BEAR IS IN THE PARK!
[CHEERING]
Dominique says BEAUTIFUL.
Myah says WHEN YOU WORK WITH OTHERS,
YOU CAN DO A LOT
OF GREAT THINGS.
(music plays)
Ava says I THINK EVERYONE IS
GOING TO BE SAYING WOW.
Michael says ALL THAT'S LEFT NOW IS TO
OPEN THIS PLAYGROUND UP.
YOU GUYS READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!

THESE ARE BOTH
AMAZING PROVINCES.

WE'RE GOING TO DO
THE PEI AND BC PLAYGROUND.
Jaedon says WE'RE WORKING ON TWO PARKS
FOR THE INITIAL PROVINCES,
BC AND PEI.
Chaad says BRITISH COLUMBIA AND
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND.
Jaedon says THEY ARE INITIAL PROVINCES
BECAUSE THEY GO
BY THEIR INITIALS.
Michael says WHO'S FROM PEI?
Myah raises her hand and says MOI.
Michael says YOU ARE.
Myah says I'M FROM PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
AND IT'S AWESOME.
I LIKE THE CONFEDERATION BRIDGE
BECAUSE IT'S THE LONGEST
BRIDGE OVER ICE WATER.
AND PEI, YOU CAN GO TO THE BEACH
AND THE SAND IS RED.
PEI IS REALLY COOL.
Pictures of PEI appear.
Michael says AND WHO'S FROM BC?
Jaedon raises his hand and says ME!
Michael says TADA!
Jaedon says I'M FROM BC AND IT'S
A BEAUTIFUL PROVINCE
BECAUSE IT'S GOT FORESTS,
IT'S GOT RIVERS,
IT'S GOT SOME GREAT ANIMALS.
IF I HAD TO MAKE UP
A SONG ABOUT BC,
I WOULD SAY,
BC IS BEAUTIFUL,
BC IS GREAT,
IT'S GOT SOME NICE TREES...
AND... A GATE.
Ava says TODAY WE SAT DOWN WITH MICHAEL
AND WE SHOWED HIM OUR IDEAS.
Michael says SO I SEE YOU'VE ALL
BROUGHT SOME DESIGNS
AND IDEAS FOR THE PLAYGROUND.
The kids show Michael their sketches.
Evee says IT'S A GIANT BEAR CLIMBER.
Michael says GIANT BEAR CLIMBER,
I LOVE IT.
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT BEAR,
DID YOU DRAW THIS?
Evee says YES.
Michael says IT'S A GOOD BEAR.
Ava says IT'S A ROCKIES MURAL.
Michael says OH, PERFECT.
I LOVE IT.
Ava says I DECIDED TO DO
A ROCKY MOUNTAIN MURAL
BECAUSE BRITISH COLUMBIA
HAS LOTS
OF BEAUTIFUL STREAMS
AND MOUNTAINS
AND IT'S REALLY,
REALLY PRETTY THERE,
AND I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO.
Michael says SO WHAT DO YOU GOT THERE JAEDON?
Jaedon says IT'S LIKE A TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
SO THESE FOUR CORNERS
ARE TOTEM POLES.
Michael says OKAY.
Jaedon says WITH LIKE...
Michael says OH I SEE, OKAY, YEAH.
Jaedon says ALMOST LIKE TREE POLES
THAT YOU CLIMB ON.
Michael says YEAH, SURE.
Myah says THIS IS MY WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says NICE! LOOK AT THE SPARKLES,
LOOKS GREAT.
Alex says MY IDEA FOR A PARK WAS
A PADDLE ART PROJECT.
Michael says OKAY, WHAT HAVE
YOU GOT THERE CHADD?
Chadd says I WANT A GRIZZLY BEAR SCULPTURE.
Michael says AH, NEAT, OKAY,
GOOD, EXCELLENT.
I LOVE IT.
(music plays)
Michael says THE GIV'ER TEAM DESIGNED
TWO PLAYGROUNDS TODAY
TO CELEBRATE OUR COASTAL
PLAYGROUNDS, BC AND PEI.
IN BC, JAEDON WANTS TO DO A
TOTEM POLE PLAY STRUCTURE.
ALEXANDER WANTS A
CANOE PADDLE ART.
EVEE WANTS A BIG
BEAR TO CLIMB ON.
AVA WANTS TO DO A
MURAL OF THE ROCKIES.
CHADD WANTS A GRIZZLY
BEAR SCULPTURE.
IN PEI, MYAH WANTS TO DO
A GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
An animation shows the whole design of the playground.
Michael says THESE ARE SOME GREAT
IDEAS FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA
AND PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
PLAYGROUND.
BUT IT'S A LOT OF WORK
TO DO IN THREE DAYS.
DO YOU THINK WE CAN DO IT?
The kids shout
YEAH!
Michael says ARE YOU READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says WELL THEN...
They all join their hands and say LET'S GIV'ER!
Michael says LET'S GO!
[CHEERING]
Myah says DAY ONE!
Ava says TIME TO GET TO WORK.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
SO THIS IS WHERE OUR BEAR
CLIMBER IS GOING TO GO.
Chadd says AND WE GOT TO SPRAY PAINT
WHERE THE BEAR WOULD GO.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Ava accidentally directs the spray towards Alex.
Alex says AH, I'M GREEN!
Michael says YOU'VE GOT TO POINT
IT STRAIGHT DOWN!
Ava says OH!
(LAUGHING)
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Evee says THE SPRAY PAINT SMELLS
LIKE GREEN APPLES.
Michael says WHAT DO YOU THINK
WE SHOULD NAME IT?
Alex says TIMMY!
Jaedon says TIMOTHY!
Evee says GREEN APPLES!
Ava says GREEN APPLE IS THE
NAME WE CALL OUR BEAR.
Myah says GREEN APPLE GOT HER NAME
BECAUSE EVEE THOUGHT
THAT THE SPRAY PAINT
SMELLED LIKE GREEN APPLES.
The kids say C'MON, MICHAEL!
Michael drives a forklift.
Evee says PUT IT RIGHT HERE.
Myah says ROAR!
GREEN APPLE'S COMING FOR YOU.
The kids uncover the bear.
Michael says A BEAR!
Alex says OH IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
The kids say IT'S NICE.
LOOK AT THAT THING.
A boy says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER!
An animation shows the design for the totem pole climber.
Alex says JAEDON AND I MET UP
WITH MICHAEL
AND WE MADE
A TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLES ARE MADE
BY THE FIRST NATIONS
PEOPLE OF BC.
THEY'RE CALLED
THE FIRST NATIONS
BECAUSE THEY WERE
HERE BEFORE CANADA
EVEN BECAME CANADA.
TOTEM POLES ARE USED
TO SHARE STORIES
ABOUT FAMILIES, AND
IMPORTANT EVENTS.
THE TOTEM POLES
I DESIGNED CELEBRATE
MY FAVOURITE THINGS ABOUT BC.
Alex says PRETTY TOTEM POLES!
Michael says ALL RIGHT?
EXACTLY, THAT'S THE UPPER PART,
THIS IS THE LOWER PART.
Jaedon says WE HAD TO DRILL
THE TOTEM POLE IN.
Alex says LIKE A TORNADO.
[WHIRRING]
TORNADO!
Michael says AND ON TO THE LEDGE.
[WHIRRING]
Michael says SHOULD I HOLD IT UP
AND YOU GUYS TELL ME
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE?
Jaedon says SURE.
Michael says ALL RIGHT.
Alex says NICE!
Michael says NICELY DONE.
NICE.
They all high-five.
Jaedon says THERE WE GO.
MICHAEL YOU GOT TO KEEP
HOLDING THAT, OKAY?
Michael says YOU GUYS ARE COMING
BACK THOUGH, OKAY?
Alex says WE'LL BE BACK
IN FIVE HOURS.
Michael says BRING ME A POPSICLE.
Alex says MAYBE.
Michael says GLASS OF WATER EVEN?
A girl says PADDLE ART.
An animation shows the design for the paddle art.
Jaedon says HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO,
CANOES WERE THE MAIN
WAY PEOPLE GOT AROUND
IN BRITISH COLUMBIA.
Alex says MY IDEA FOR THE PARK
WAS A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT
CANOE PADDLES
GETTING PAINTED.
Evee says WE MET DOMINIQUE
AND SHE SHOWED US
HOW TO PAINT ON PADDLES.
Dominique says I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU GUYS
BUT I'M PRETTY EXCITED
TO REPLICATE
OR TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING
THAT I CAN REALLY
I CAN IDENTIFY TO
AND PUT ON THE PADDLE.
IS YOUR BRAIN, THE
CREATIVE PROCESS FLOWING?
Everyone says YEAH!
Dominique says YEAH? ALL RIGHT,
WELL GRAB A PADDLE.
Myah says I'VE NEVER PAINTED A PADDLE
IN MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE.
AND IT'S KIND OF COOL.
A girl says GIANT BEAR CLIMBER.
An animation shows the design for the giant bear climber.
Evee says HAMMER DRILL TIME.
Michael says SO THAT IS THE DRILL
WE ARE GOING TO USE.
IT IS A VERY BIG DRILL.
IT'S DESIGNED FOR DRILLING
BIG HOLES IN CONCRETE.
[LOUD WHIRRING]
Ava says USING THE HAMMER
DRILL WAS LIKE NEW,
I WAS VERY UNFAMILIAR,
BUT REALLY COOL BECAUSE
IT'S LIKE REALLY HEAVY
AND IT WAS JUST LIKE
DRILLING INTO THE CEMENT.
I CAN'T MOVE IT AT ALL.
Michael says THAT'S GOOD, THAT
MEANS THAT THE BEAR
CAN'T MOVE IT ALL EITHER.
OKAY, BEAR SECURE.
Ava says HALF WAY THROUGH DAY ONE.
(music plays)
Jaedon says OVER TO YOU, PEI.
Chadd says GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
An animation shows the design for the giant whale climber.
Myah says LOTS OF WHALES
VISIT PEI EACH YEAR.
MY FAVOURITE IS
THE KILLER WHALE
BECAUSE I LIKE ITS NAME
AND ITS COLOURS.
MICHAEL, WANT TO BUILD
MY WHALE FROM PEI.
Michael says WE COULD USE THAT.
Chadd and Myah say WHOA.
Michael points at a large metal structure in the shape of a whale.
Myah says CHADD AND I WE PUT IN
THE WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says WE'RE GOING TO GO SLOW, OKAY?
Chadd says IT WAS FUN
TO BRING THE WHALE DOWN.
'CAUSE YOU HAD TO MOVE
THESE DIFFERENT LEVERS
AND I REALLY DIDN'T
KNOW WHICH ONE TO PULL.
AND THEN I JUST PUSHED
IT UP FOR A MISTAKE.
IT'S OKAY TO MAKE MISTAKES
BECAUSE WE GOT IT IN
THE PERFECT PLACE.
With the help of a crane, they put the whale in place.
Michael says THAT LOOKS AMAZING.
NICELY DONE!
THE GIV'ER TEAM DID SO WELL
BUILDING ALL THE CLIMBERS
THAT I DECIDED TO TAKE THEM
TO A REAL CLIMBING GYM.
[CROSS-TALK]
Michael says ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT GIV'ER
TEAM, THIS IS MY FRIEND JODY.
JODY IS GOING TO SHOW
US SOME ROCK CLIMBING.
Jody is in his thirties, clean-shaven and with short wavy brown hair. He wears black Bermuda shorts and a gingham shirt.
He says YEAH, YOU GUYS WANT TO TRY
SOME ROCK CLIMBING?
Everyone says YEAH!
Myah says THEN IT WAS TEAM RED'S TURN.
She does bicep curls and says BC AND PEI, MY ROCK
CLIMBING MUSCLES.
Michael says CLIMB!
GO TEAM RED!
Myah and Jaedon climb up the wall.
(music plays)
Chadd says THEN IT WAS TEAM
BLUE'S TURN TO GO.
Chadd and Evee climb up the wall next.
(music plays)
Chadd says USING A WALKER IS NO
DIFFERENT THAN WALKING
EXCEPT THAT YOU'RE
LIKE IN SOMETHING.
GOING UP!
GOING DOWN!
YEAH!
Alex says TEAM YELLOW!
YEAH!
Alex and Ava climb up the wall.
(music plays)
Everyone says GIV'ER!
Evee says END OF DAY ONE.
Michael says END OF DAY ONE AND
WE GOT A GREAT START
ON BOTH COASTS OF OUR
CANADA PLAYGROUND.
BUT WE'VE GOT A
LOT TO DO TOMORROW.
SO I'LL SEE YOU THEN.
Chadd says CAN'T WAIT FOR DAY TWO.
(music plays)
Ava says GOOD MORNING, IT'S DAY TWO.
Michael says GOOD MORNING.
BEGINNING OF DAY TWO.
HOW'S EVERYBODY FEELING?
Everyone says GOOD!
Michael says FANTASTIC.
IN BC, WE HAVE TO FINISH THE
TOTEM POLE PLAY STRUCTURE.
PAINT AVA'S ROCKIES MURAL,
GET STARTED ON CHAD'S
BEAR SCULPTURE,
AND FINISH ALEXANDER'S PADDLES.
IN PEI, WE HAVE TO
ASSEMBLE THE WHALE CLIMBER
AND GET STARTED
ON THE PEI MURAL.
WHOO! TWO PLAYGROUNDS EQUALS
TWO TIMES THE WORK.
ARE YOU READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WELL THEN...
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Ava says WE'RE BUILDING BC AND PEI.
Evee says OVER TO YOU BC.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER!
WE HAD THESE WOODEN
PLANKS THAT WE PUT ON.
ALMOST LIKE, DIAGONAL,
SO THEY LOOK KIND OF WEIRD.
THEN WE SCREWED THEM
IN WITH THESE BOLTS.
Alex says THE FIRST ONE WE DID,
WE DRILLED IT IN THE TOP.
Michael says DO YOU WANT TO TAKE A LOOK?
OH YEAH, PERFECT, FLUSH.
Alex says BUT THEN I REALIZED THAT, WHAT
WOULD WE FILL IT UP WITH?
WHAT ARE WE GOING
TO FILL THIS WITH?
Michael says YOU KNOW WHAT?
THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.
Jaedon says WHAT IF WE DID IT UNDERNEATH?
Michael says THAT'S A GREAT SOLUTION.
OKAY, SO THAT'S WHAT WE ARE
GOING TO DO FROM NOW ON.
Alex says SO THEN WE MADE THE REST
OF THE HOLES ON THE BOTTOM
SO WE WOULDN'T GET
HURT OR ANYTHING.
Michael says NICELY DONE.
YOU GUYS WANT TO GIVE
THIS THING A TRY?
Alex says YEAH!
Jaedon says SURE!
They all walk on the poles.
Jaedon says WORKS PRETTY GOOD.
Chadd says OVER TO YOU BC.
A girl says ROCKIES MURAL.
An animation shows the design of the Rockies mural.
Jaedon says BRITISH COLUMBIA
IS WORLD FAMOUS
BECAUSE OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES.
THEY ARE 76 MILLION YEARS OLD
AND STRETCH ALL THE WAY
THROUGH BC, ALBERTA,
AND DOWN INTO THE UNITED STATES.
An animated map shows the location of the Rockies.
Dominique says SALUT, LE GANG!
Ava says TODAY, ME AND CHADD MET
DOMINIQUE
AND SHE SHOWED US
HOW TO SPRAY PAINT,
USING THE ROCKIES MURAL.
Chadd says WE SPRAY PAINTED MOUNTAINS.
AND THE MOUNTAINS
HAVE WATER AND CLOUDS
AND SKY ON THEM.
Ava says WITH MY MURAL, I WAS
TRYING TO MAKE IT LOOK
AS MUCH AS BC AS I COULD.
I WAS JUST TRYING TO
MAKE IT REPRESENT BC
WITH ALL THE MOUNTAINS,
THE ROCKS, THE SKY.
Chaad says IT MADE
BRITISH COLUMBIA
LOOK BEAUTIFUL.
(music plays)
Michael says WE HAD A BIT MORE
ROOM IN OUR PLAYGROUND
THAN WE THOUGHT WE WOULD.
SO JAEDON THOUGHT
IT WOULD BE COOL
TO BUILD A BONUS CLIMBER.
IT WILL LOOK LIKE
BC'S FAMOUS FORESTS.
TO DO THAT WE NEED TO PUT
HOLES INTO THE GROUND.
ALL RIGHT, WE ARE GOING TO MAKE
OUR ROOTS WITH THIS THING.
HAVE YOU USED ONE
OF THESE BEFORE?
He points at skid steer.
Jaedon says NO!
Michael says OKAY SO THIS IS A SKID
STEER WITH AN AUGER BIT.
Jaedon says THE SKID STEER
WAS SO MUCH FUN.
IT WAS ALMOST
LIKE A VIDEO GAME,
'CAUSE YOU HAD TWO JOYSTICKS.
ONE OF THEM WAS TO USE THE ARM
AND THEN ONE OF
THEM WAS TO DRIVE.
I'VE NEVER DRIVEN BEFORE
SO IT WAS PRETTY COOL.
IT FELT LIKE I WAS
DRIVING A SPACE SHIP.
SO WHEN THE CAR WENT
UP I WAS LIKE, WOW,
I'M UP NOW, OKAY,
AND DRILL, DRILL.
SO I LEARNED.
Michael says YOU'RE A NATURAL.
Jaedon says THIS IS THE COOLEST THING EVER.
WHOA.
IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE FUN?
Michael says YEAH.
[LAUGHING]
Jaedon says ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.
Michael says NOBODY TALKS ABOUT
IT, BUT IT IS.
Jaedon says THE REASON I FOUND
IT SO MUCH FUN IS
'CAUSE I'VE NEVER
DONE IT BEFORE.
NICE HOLE.
Michael says GREAT HOLE, AWESOME.
NICELY DONE BUDDY.
THANKS.
(music plays)
Chadd says OVER TO YOU PEI.
A girl says POTATO ART.
EVEN THOUGH
PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND
IS THE SMALLEST PROVINCE,
WE GROW MORE POTATOES THAN
ANYWHERE ELSE IN CANADA.
Dominique says WELCOME TO PEI GUYS!
Everyone says YEAH!
Myah says I THINK I'M GOING TO
PAINT WITH POTATOES NOW
BECAUSE PEI HAS
A LOT OF POTATOES.
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Myah says MY SHIRT IS BLUE
BECAUSE I WAS PAINTING
AND IT'S ON MY PANTS.
AND I GOT KIND OF MESSY
BECAUSE WE'RE PAINING
WITH POTATOES FROM PEI.
Ava says DOING ART MAKES ME FEEL LIKE
I'M KIND OF IN MY HAPPY PLACE.
IT'S VERY PEACEFUL, VERY FUN.
Jaedon says YOU WOULDN'T EXPECT TO BE
PAINTING WITH A VEGETABLE.
I USUALLY EAT POTATOES,
NOT DIP THEM IN PAINT.
Chadd says MY HAIR IS BLUE BECAUSE
WHEN WE WERE PAINTING
I GOT ALL MESSY WITH THE PAINT.
EVEN MY WALKER GOT PAINT ON IT.
Michael says MIDDLE OF DAY TWO AND
THIS SITE IS BUZZING.
WE GOT OUR SPRAY PAINT
MURAL HAPPENING OVER HERE,
OUR TOTEM POLE CLIMBER
IS LOOKING GREAT GUYS.
FILTER CLOTH IS GOING DOWN.
WE'VE GOT OUR STUMP JUMPERS
BEING SANDED BEHIND YOU.
AND OUR FOREST OF TREES
IS LOOKING AMAZING.
AND WE ALSO HAVE
GREEN APPLE THE BEAR.
AND NONE OF IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE
WITHOUT THE HELP OF ALL
OUR INCREDIBLE VOLUNTEERS.
THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!
The volunteers cheer.
Michael says WONDER WHAT'S GOING ON IN PEI?
He shouts HOW'S IT GOING IN PEI?
[CHEERING]
Ava says IT'S REALLY NICE TO SEE
EVERYONE GIVING BACK.
Dominique says BECAUSE IT WAS
SO HOT, THE GIV'ER TEAM
FOUND A FUN WAY TO COOL DOWN.
Ava says WATER FIGHT.
[SCREAMING]
The kids run after each other with water balloons and water guns.
Chadd says I GOT SOAKING WET.
Jaedon says I GOT CHADD REALLY GOOD.
[LAUGHTER, SCREAMING]
Chadd says IT WAS PRETTY FUN
BECAUSE THE WATER
WAS NICE AND COLD.
AND IT'S A HOT DAY.
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
[CHEERING]
Myah says TIME TO GET TO WORK.
Jaedon says GRIZZLY SCULPTURE.
An animation shows the design for the grizzly sculpture.
Michael says JOSH IS GOING TO SHOW US
HOW TO CARVE A BIG BEAR
LIKE YOUR DESIGN CHAD.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT.
Jaedon says SO WE MET JOSH
WHICH WAS SUPER COOL
'CAUSE HE SHOWED US HOW TO TAKE
ALL THE BARK OFF OF A TREE.
Josh is in his thirties, with long blond hair in a ponytail and a stubble. He wears brown Bermuda shorts, a pale blue T-shirt, a cap hat and sunglasses.
Josh peels a thick log with a shovel.
Chadd says JOSH IS GREAT AT PEELING LOGS.
Jaedon says THAT IS SO COOL!
Alex says THAT'S AMAZING!
Ava says WE USED A TOOL
CALLED A SPUD
TO DEBARK THE TREE.
Chadd says PEELING THE BARK
WAS KIND OF HARD.
The kids take turns to debark the tree trunk.
Josh says NICE.
Chadd says BUT I REALLY LIKE DOING IT.
Josh says YUP, GOOD,
NOW PULL IT AWAY.
Ava says THE DEBARKING THE TREE
FOR MAKING THE TOTEM
POLE WAS SO COOL.
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I WOULD
EVER BE ABLE TO DO THAT.
Michael says SO, THIS IS GREAT.
BUT MY QUESTION IS,
DOES ANYBODY SEE A BEAR HERE?
Everyone says NO!
Jaedon says AND THEN WE SPRAY
PAINTED THE AREAS
OF THE FACE,
THE ARMS, THE LEGS.
I'M STARTING TO
SEE THE INNER BEAR.
THE BEST PART WAS WHEN WE
ALL GOT TO POSE LIKE BEARS.
[GROWLING]
(music plays)
Josh starts carving the bear with a chainsaw.
Jaedon says TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
A girl says NOW IT WAS OUR TURN
TO USE CHAIN SAWS.
WE MADE STUMP JUMPERS
FOR THE TOTEM POLE
PLAY STRUCTURES.
Michael says OKAY, HAS ANYBODY USED
A CHAIN SAW BEFORE?
Myah says NO.
Michael says WOULD YOU LIKE TO HOLD
THIS FOR A SECOND?
HOLD IT UP HERE.
Ava says I WAS REALLY
EXCITED BUT NERVOUS.
IT WAS REALLY COOL
TO USE A NEW TOOL.
[LOUD BUZZING]
Michael helps Ava use the chainsaw to cut a beam.
Ava says HALFWAY THROUGH ON THE CUT
WE PUSHED TOO HARD
DOWN ON THE CHAINSAW.
SO IT STOPPED.
SO THEN WE HAD TO TAKE IT
BACK UP, PUT IT BACK DOWN.
[LOUD BUZZING]
LET THE CHAINSAW USE ITS
OWN WEIGHT TO BRING IT DOWN.
GOOD.
Michael says YEAH?
AND WHAT DO YOU THINK?
Ava says COOL!
USING A CHAINSAW MADE ME
FEEL REALLY MATURE
BECAUSE, UM, WELL...
IT'S A REALLY, LIKE,
DANGEROUS TOOL.
BUT IT WAS REALLY FUN.
Myah says THEN IT WAS MY TURN
TO USE THE CHAINSAW.
IT WAS PRETTY FUN
BECAUSE I'VE NEVER USED
A CHAIN SAW BEFORE.
WHEN I USED THE CHAINSAW,
IT MADE ME FEEL STRONG.
[LOUD BUZZING]
Michael says AND?
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT?
Myah says WOW!
Michael says IT'S PRETTY
AWESOME ISN'T IT.
YEAH!
Myah says CHAINSAW!
Jaedon says BACK TO PEI.
A kid says WHALE CLIMBER!
Michael says THE WHALE IS AMAZING.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS
THINK OF THIS THING?
Evee says IT'S HUMONGOUS.
Michael says IT'S HUMONGOUS.
Evee says MYAH AND I PUT THE TONGUE
ON THE WHALE CLIMBER.
Myah says I'M DRAWING THIS TO YOU.
Michael says WHAT'S THAT?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO ME?
Myah says RED APPLE.
Michael says RED APPLE IS WHAT
WE'RE CALLING THE FISH?
"IT'S NOT A FISH MICHAEL."
Myah says MY WHALE, IT'S NAME IS
RED APPLE, IT'S A GIRL.
(music plays)
Chadd says END OF DAY TWO.
Jaedon says WHEN I LOOK AROUND THE PARK,
I FEEL PRETTY PROUD
'CAUSE WE MADE EVERYTHING.
Michael climbs up the whale climber and says END OF DAY TWO AND WE
HAD A WHALE OF A TIME.
IN PEI, WE FINISHED
MYAH'S WHALE CLIMBER
AND GOT A GOOD START ON THE
MURAL PAINTED WITH POTATOES.
OVER IN BC WE WORKED ON
JAEDON'S TOTEM
POLE PLAY STRUCTURE
AND THE BONUS FOREST CLIMBER.
PAINTED AVA'S MURAL
OF THE ROCKIES
AND PUT IN SO MANY WOOD CHIPS.
BUT WE'VE GOT A LOT TO DO
BEFORE OUR GRAND OPENING.
SEE YOU THEN.
(music plays)
Jaedon says FROM ONE COAST TO ANOTHER,
THIS PARK IS AWESOME.
Ava says SEE YOU TOMORROW FOR
OUR GRAND OPENING.
(music plays)
Chadd says DAY THREE.
Myah says GO GIV'ER!
Jaedon says IT'S A RACE TO THE FINISH LINE.
Everyone says MICHAEL HELP US!
Michael says YOU GUYS ARE STUCK
IN A WHALE.
Everyone says YEAH!
Chadd says WE WERE BEING
SWALLOWED BY A WHALE.
Michael says ALL RIGHT, BEGINNING
OF DAY THREE,
YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
LET'S GO!
WE HAVE TO PUT
WOOD CHIPS IN PEI.
AND IN BC, ATTACH THE
PADDLES TO THE WALLS
AND INSTALL THE STUMP JUMPERS
FOR THE TOTEM POLE
PLAY STRUCTURE.
WE ALSO HAVE TO MOVE IN
CHADD'S GRIZZLY SCULPTURE.
SO, YOU GUYS READY TO GIV'ER?
Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says WELL THEN...
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Michael says LET'S GO!
Ava says THE WEATHER THE PAST FEW
DAYS HAS BEEN REALLY HOT.
BUT TODAY IT'S STARTED
TO RAIN LIKE CRAZY.
TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon says MY FAVOURITE PART
OF THE PLAYGROUND
IS PROBABLY THE
TOTEM POLE CLIMBER.
Jaedon digs a hole and says WE'LL FIND TREASURE?
Michael says I DON'T KNOW,
YOU TELL ME?
LET'S CHECK IT OUT.
Jaedon says WE HAD THIS REALLY BIG BLUE LOG
THAT ME AND MYAH
PUT INTO A HOLE.
SLOWLY DROP IT.
WIGGLE, WIGGLE, WIGGLE.
Michael says NICE,
HOW DOES THAT LOOK?
Jaedon says LOOKS GOOD.
I FOUND TREASURE.
Michael says YOU DID?
Jaedon says A BIG ROCK.
Myah says WE FOUND LIKE A MOON
ROCK, LIKE THIS BIG.
IT WAS FUN AT THE END
BECAUSE WE GOT TO STAND IN
IT AND DO A STATUE POSE.
Jaedon says IT'S KIND OF REAL.
Michael says IT'S SO LIFE-LIKE.
Myah says AGH!
Jaedon says OH GOD!
WHOA.
I THINK A LOT OF KIDS ARE
GOING TO APPRECIATE THIS PARK.
(music plays)
Chadd says GIANT WHALE CLIMBER.
Michael says WE NEED TO GET SOME WOOD CHIPS
IN AROUND THE BASE OF OUR WHALE.
AND THE EASIEST WAY
TO MOVE A LOT OF WOOD
CHIPS IN QUICKLY...
IS WITH THAT.
Michael points at a loader.
Ava says THE FIRST TIME HE TOLD ME
THAT I WAS GOING TO BE USING IT,
I WAS KIND OF REALLY SCARED.
I THOUGHT I WAS GOING
TO HIT SOMEONE FOR SURE.
AND IT WAS SO WEIRD,
IT WAS JUST LIKE
A WHOLE NEW THING
AND ALL THE CONTROLS WERE
JUST SO UNFAMILIAR AND WEIRD.
Michael says ALL RIGHT, STOP THERE.
THAT'S GOOD.
OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE,
THAT'S IT.
LITTLE BIT MORE.
THAT'S IT.
Ava says IT'S REALLY WEIRD
AND EXCITING.
Michael says HOW ARE YOU FEELING
ABOUT THIS THING?
Ava says MORE COMFORTABLE.
Michael says THAT'S GOOD BECAUSE WE'VE GOT
A LOT OF WOOD CHIPS TO MOVE.
COME WITH ME.
Alex says OVER TO BC.
A kid says PADDLER TIME!
Michael says WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?
Chadd says WE'RE PUTTING
PADDLES ON THE WALL.
[WHIRRING]
They drill the paddles to the wall.
Chadd says THE PADDLE WAS BLUE,
THE WALKER WAS BLUE,
MY PANTS WERE BLUE,
MY SHIRT WAS BLUE,
AND I'M BLUE TOO.
GOOD THING BLUE'S
MY FAVOURITE COLOUR.
Alex says THIS IS AN IMPRESSION OF ME.
UGH-UGH-UGH...
[WHIRRING]
SO MAYBE WE COULD DO THIS
AND THEN, FOR THE NEXT ONE,
WE COULD PUT THAT
FACING AGAINST THAT
AND THEN
WE COULD KEEP DOING...
Michael says ALTERNATING?
Alex says YEAH.

Alex says IT MEANT A LOT TO DO MY IDEA.

TWO, ONE!
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WE ARE DONE.
THE BEAR IS IN THE PARK!
[CHEERING]
Dominique says BEAUTIFUL.
Myah says WHEN YOU WORK WITH OTHERS,
YOU CAN DO A LOT
OF GREAT THINGS.
(music plays)
Ava says I THINK EVERYONE IS
GOING TO BE SAYING WOW.
Michael says ALL THAT'S LEFT NOW IS TO
OPEN THIS PLAYGROUND UP.

Everyone says YEAH!
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WELL THEN...

Alex says WE FINISHED.
Evee says TIME FOR THE GRAND OPENING.
Dominique says something in French.
The crowd cheers.
Michael says WELCOME OTTAWA TO YOUR

[CHEERING]
Michael says THIS GIV'ER TEAM HAS
WORKED REALLY HARD,
WITH SO MANY VOLUNTEERS
AND A LOT OF SUN
AND A LOT OF RAIN.
BUT WE GOT IT DONE.
AND BEFORE WE OPEN IT UP
THERE IS A FEW THINGS WE'D
LIKE TO SAY TO YOU ALL SO...
Myah says THIS WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE.
I HAD SO MUCH FUN.
I MET SO MANY NEW FRIENDS
AND I HOPE THAT THEY CAN
COME AND VISIT ME IN PEI.
Chadd says THANK YOU ALL TO THE PEOPLE
WHO HELPED BUILD THIS PLAYGROUND
AND 'GO JAYS, GO.'
[CHEERING]
Jaedon says IT'S BEEN AN HONOUR TO BE ABLE
TO WORK ON THIS PLAYGROUND
AND MEET NEW FRIENDS.
AND MAN, THIS WEATHER
REALLY REMINDS ME OF HOME.
[LAUGHTER]
Michael says ALL RIGHT, WE'RE READY TO
GET THESE PLAYGROUNDS OPEN?
[CHEERING]
Michael says ALL RIGHT THEN, WELL...
Everyone says LET'S GIV'ER!
Alex and Evee cut the ribbon.
[CHEERING]
Myah says I HOPE KIDS HAVE LOTS AND LOTS
AND LOTS AND LOTS AND
LOTS AND LOTS OF FUN.
Evee says I HELPED MAKE THIS.

IF YOU HAVE A DISABILITY
YOU CAN STILL DO STUFF
THAT THEY CAN DO.
