Hi, I'm Maya.
Oh, and Elmo's Elmo.
[chuckles] Today, me and Elmo are going to show you how to beatbox.
That's right baby!
[chuckles] So first, you have to remember this phrase boots and cats.
Boots and cats?
Mm-hm.
That's silly.
What do boots and cats have to do with beatboxing?
[laughter] So then, you emphasize the consonant letters like this.
(BEATBOXING) Boots and cats.
And then, you repeat.
OK. Let Elmo try.
(BEATBOXING) Boots and cats, boots and cats, boots and cats, boots and cats.
Oh wow, that's cool.
[chuckles] Wow, Elmo loves to beatbox.
Let's do it again.
(BEATBOXING) Boots and cats, boots and cats, boots and cats, boots and cats.
Awa- awa- awa- awa.
[laughter] What next?
What next?
Let's learn something else.
How about break dancing?
Does Maya break dance?
A little bit.
A little bit.
How about, how about Maya teaches Elmo how to do the robot.
Oh!
That's a good one right?
Mm-hm.
OK, go for it.
Let's see, let's see your robot.
So I put my arms out like this.
OK. And I look really stiff and I start moving around like this.
[chuckles] Boy, Elmo loves the robot.
Ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah.
Let's do it together.
Mm-hm.
Ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- ah- [beatboxing] Robot!
[chuckles] Oh boy, thank you so much Maya.
You're welcome.
You're very, very talented.

[chuckles] Bu-bye everybody.
Bye.

Yeah baby.
It's picture time Maya.
Picture time.

[chuckles] What do you do at Full Time Kid?
I do like how to videos for kids and parents.
Oh really?
Like how to what?
Like how to make ice cream at home.
Are we going to do that today?
[laughter] Elmo wants ice cream Elmo is very hungry.
