00:01 It's almost time for Kids Time.
00:02 We're gonna be late 00:04 It's time to share there's a world out there 00:08 Looking for a friend like Jesus 00:11 It's time to share there's a world out there 00:16 Let's tell them that He loves us so 00:20 Let's tell them that He loves us so 00:24 Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time 00:31 Hi, boy and girls. Do you ever worry 00:33 about what others think about you? 00:35 Does it change the way you act around them? 00:37 Do you ever feel ashamed or embarrassed 00:40 to have others see you pray? 00:41 You know, it is always been my practice 00:43 to bow my head and pray over my meals, 00:45 even when I'm in public 00:47 and other people are watching. 00:48 Some people think it's great, but people, 00:51 who don't love Jesus may think, 00:52 it's a little silly. 00:54 I do it anyway, because my relationship 00:56 with Jesus is far more important to me 00:58 than what other people think. 01:00 That was true of the brave man 01:01 in our Bible story today. 01:03 But he wasn't just praying over a meal, 01:06 and he didn't just have to worry 01:07 about what other people thought of him. 01:10 He had to worry about being killed, that's right. 01:13 But this man didn't care 01:14 what other people thought of him 01:16 and he didn't care if he was killed either. 01:18 No law on earth was going to keep him 01:21 from praying out in the open 01:22 just as he always did to the God of heaven. 01:26 Now that took a lot of courage, 01:28 didn't it boys and girls? 01:29 And God blessed him for his courage. 01:31 We'll find out how in just a little while, 01:35 but first lets get ready for our Nature Time. 01:45 Welcome to Nature Time. 01:47 You know, I love animals so much 01:49 and we're at Binder Park Zoo, 01:50 so I can see all these animals 01:52 and you can see them too 01:53 right here at Battle Creek, Michigan. 01:56 Alex is here and gonna help us 01:57 with some of these animals. 01:58 Alex, what did you got today? 02:02 Well, Ranger Dwight, I have two domestic rats. 02:05 Rats. Yep, 02:07 they might not be your favorite animals, 02:09 but they are a great animal to work with here in zoo. 02:12 Rats are really, really smart animals. 02:15 So I just have to be honest kids, 02:18 I am not a rat lover, around our house 02:20 we don't like rats around. 02:22 But I was watching in your nature show Alex, 02:25 was that these two rats that were running? 02:27 Yes it was. And it was pretty cool kids 02:29 watching them what they were doing. 02:30 They are a smart little animal, aren't they? 02:32 They are very, very smart and they're also very agile. 02:35 They're really fast and they have great claws 02:38 on all four of their little feet. 02:39 So they can climb up anything, 02:41 I can hear little paws climbing on your shirt. 02:44 Now can I pat one of these things? 02:45 You sure can. 02:47 I think I will kids, I don't think 02:48 I've ever pat a rat in my life. 02:50 Oh, they got kind of nice fur. 02:52 And one of the coolest parts 02:53 is actually if you wanna pat their tail. Wow. 02:57 Most people think that their tails 02:59 are completely hairless. 03:00 But they're actually very, very soft 03:02 and they covered with lots of tiny little hairs. 03:05 That is amazing. 03:07 So now how many little ones will a rat have? 03:10 Like a litter or what-- how many? 03:12 Yeah, they will have a litter 03:13 and they can have up to 12, 15 03:16 maybe even 20 babies at a time. 03:19 Twenty babies, that's a bunch. 03:21 That is. But fortunately for us 03:23 rats don't live a long time, 03:24 because if they did producing that many babies 03:27 there would be rats everywhere. 03:29 Well I am glad we don't have rats everywhere now. 03:32 We're gonna be talking about another creature 03:37 that don't like these rats too. 03:38 That's right. We should probably 03:40 get these rats out of here 03:41 before we bring our next animal in 03:43 Kids' this is amazing. 03:45 Wow, look at this thing. 03:47 These two animals don't get along. 03:50 Wow, do you see that kids'? 03:52 Wow, look at that. 03:53 Now this is a-- obviously this is a snake 03:56 but what kind of a snake? 03:57 This is called a Dumeril's Ground Boa, 03:59 it's also called the Madagascar Ground Boa. 04:01 So it's a boa. And this is in Madagascar 04:05 which is an island of Africa. Yeah. 04:08 And it's only found there you say. 04:09 That's right that is the only place 04:11 in the whole world where these snakes are found. 04:13 Now how big will this one get. 04:15 This one will probably get to be about eight 04:17 or nine feet long. So-- 04:18 I mean that's like, wow. 04:19 Yeah, little bit bigger than she is right now. 04:22 Now how do they like a rat or rabbit-- 04:26 or whatever how do they kill their prey? 04:28 That is a very good question. 04:29 This is actually what we call a constrictor. 04:31 If you can see she's kind of wrapping around my hand. 04:34 They're very good at that. 04:36 So this is a non-venomous snake it doesn't have fangs. 04:39 I am glad about that kids. 04:40 It's like say a rattlesnake. Yeah. 04:42 Exactly I probably wouldn't be holding it if it were. 04:45 You know, I saw that just a little bit ago 04:47 we had Melissa another one of the park 04:50 people here and the kids, 04:52 some of the Kids Time kids were petting it. 04:53 So this obviously is a tamed one. 04:55 That's right. This snake has lived here 04:57 its entire life and it is very friendly. 05:00 And it's just a great experience for kids 05:02 to find out that snakes aren't really slimy. 05:05 They're actually very dry and smooth. 05:07 So I can touch this. 05:08 Now, you know, kids this is really neat. 05:10 My grandson Brady, he touches 05:13 and he already said Alex, he said, 05:15 oh that feels like a basketball. 05:17 And it kind of does, it's got that scale 05:20 that feels almost like a basketball cover. 05:21 It does kind of feel like a basketball. 05:23 Now when they--now how many young do they have? 05:25 They will lay eggs. 05:27 They usually lay between 20 and 30 eggs 05:29 probably for this species of snake. 05:32 And they--once they lay them, 05:33 they'll move on and those little baby snakes 05:35 will hatch out and they'll be on their own. 05:37 Right away. Yep. 05:38 Well, and then how long do they live? 05:41 Reptiles in general will live a long time. 05:44 So snake like this would probably live 05:46 20 or maybe even 25 years. 05:48 That is a long time. 05:50 Well, you know kids, I was thinking 05:52 as Alex was telling me that these snakes will, 05:56 they squeeze that's why they're called constrictors, 05:58 Boa constrictors. And they will squeeze 06:00 their prey and you know what? 06:01 That should be a lesson to us 06:03 we should never let go, 06:04 Alex, didn't you say that. 06:05 They can hold on for hours. They can. 06:08 So we need to hold on to Jesus kids. 06:10 Alex, thank you so much for being with us here. 06:13 I appreciate it. 06:14 My pleasure, Ranger Dwight. 06:15 Nature's got second book, 06:17 get out there and take a look. 06:20 This is neat. 08:50 Welcome to Learning Time. 08:51 I'm glad you joined us today. 08:53 You know, how many of you have friends? 08:55 Anybody have friends? 08:56 Yeah, and I'm sure that everyone knows someone. 08:58 Now look at Maxwell down here. 09:01 Now, if Maxwell was walking down the highway 09:03 or down the side walk in your neighborhood, 09:06 would you know that it was Maxwell? Yeah. 09:09 All right, if you knew Maxwell well enough 09:10 you would know that it was Maxwell. 09:12 You certainly wouldn't know-- 09:13 you certainly wouldn't get him confused with a cat, 09:16 would you? No. 09:18 I don't think so. Well, you know, 09:19 it's probably a little easier 09:21 to think about people that you know. 09:23 Sometimes we see them just for a glance 09:26 and we know who they are, 09:27 because we recognize them by their features. 09:30 Now I've got something special I want to show you, 09:32 I have a picture of a friend of mine and oh, 09:35 you know what? We need some helpers. 09:37 Oh, I forgot, I forgot about my helpers. 09:40 Now, Noah is gonna help us. Now, Noah 09:41 you have an interesting dog, don't you? 09:45 Well, my dog is sort of like Maxwell, 09:47 but he has one eye 09:48 and he's a little bit smaller. 09:49 Wow, that's interesting. 09:51 Well, and Noah is gonna help us today and Maloney. 09:55 What do you want to be? A veterinarian. 09:59 Wow, and that's kind of cool, isn't it? 10:01 Yeah, very good. And Nathan, 10:04 what do you like to do best? 10:06 I like to make movies. 10:08 Cool, making movies. 10:10 Well, all of those things are very interesting. 10:12 And I want my helpers to come on up here. 10:13 And if you would just stand over here 10:15 and I have got something underneath this towel 10:18 that I want to show you, okay. 10:19 I want to you back up a little more, 10:21 because I'm gonna need a little bit space over here. 10:23 Now, I brought a picture of someone that I know. 10:27 It's a personal friend of mine 10:28 and I don't know if you know this friend or not, 10:30 but you just might, okay. 10:32 Let's see, it's under this little towel right here. 10:35 And how many friends do you have Melody? 10:37 Oh, like two. 10:41 Got two friends. 10:42 Yeah. Hey, friends are important, 10:43 aren't they Nathan? 10:44 They really are. 10:46 Well, let see what we got over here. 10:47 And I'll, first I will show you. 10:49 You recognize this person? Yeah. 10:51 How many of you recognize this person, anybody? 10:52 Miss Brenda. Recognize this person. 10:57 Yeah. I know this person, 10:58 how many of you know this person, raise your hand? 11:01 Okay, you guys all know this person. Yeah. 11:03 Okay what was that-- what did you say? 11:05 It's upside down. It's Miss Linda. 11:07 Its upside, oh, I am sorry, 11:09 the picture is upside down. 11:11 I turned it, I got it off here 11:13 and I turned it, I flipped it-- 11:15 it supposed to be the other way, isn't it? 11:17 Okay, so here we go. 11:18 Let me turn it the right way, there you go. 11:21 Check this out. 11:23 Do you like that? 11:25 You like this better. 11:27 You don't like this better. 11:28 Did you see that? 11:30 Wow. Wow. 11:33 Well, now wait a minute, now wait a minute 11:35 are you trying to tell me that you like 11:37 my friend's picture better upside down. Yeah. 11:42 Do you like it better upside down? Yeah. 11:45 Well, isn't that amazing? 11:48 Well, you know what? 11:49 We've kind of doctored up the picture of Miss Brenda, 11:52 haven't we? Yeah. 11:53 Yeah, really, really good. 11:56 And I hope she forgive us for doing this. 11:58 But it's really a good science example. 12:00 You know what happens? 12:03 You know what happens? 12:04 When you and I look at somebody 12:06 when we're visiting our friends, 12:07 you know what we do? 12:08 We key off of their eyes 12:09 and their mouth. That's right. 12:10 We look at their eyes and their mouth. 12:12 But this picture being, 12:14 right side up has her mouth and eyes upside down. 12:18 But when I put the picture completely upside down, 12:22 it doesn't bother us as much 12:24 because her eyes and her mouth 12:26 are both right side up. 12:29 Don't you like that better? Yeah. 12:31 Don't you like that worse? Yeah. 12:34 Okay. And you know what in order for us 12:36 to make sure that we know 12:37 what Miss Brenda really looks like. 12:40 We got a picture that's not doctored up at all 12:42 and here it is. 12:44 Isn't that the way she looks? Yeah. 12:46 Isn't that the way she looks? Yeah. 12:48 And everything is right where it should be 12:51 which is really the way it should be. 12:53 Well, you know what? 12:54 That kind of reminds me of something. 12:56 Because you know sometimes you 12:59 and I might look at the world 13:01 and sometimes it doesn't, doesn't make much sense. 13:05 Because it just kind of looks upside down to us 13:07 so like her mouth and her eyes. 13:09 But you know we can't tell 13:10 what the world is about sometimes 13:12 without you and I getting close to Jesus and the Bible. 13:16 And the Bible can help us to figure out the world, 13:19 because sometimes the world doesn't make 13:21 much sense to us, isn't that great? Yeah. 13:24 That's what I want to do. 13:25 And you know what? Next time you look 13:27 at your friends think about it. 13:29 Next time you look at anyone just think about it. 13:31 We look at their eyes and we look at their mouths, 13:33 we just don't look at all the rest of their features 13:36 and if they're upside down it really bothers us, 13:38 doesn't it? Yeah. 13:40 Well, remember when we learn more about science, 13:43 we're learning more about our creator God. 14:01 Oh, the music is so relaxing, isn't it your majesty? 14:06 Indeed it is my queen. 14:07 But this is a happy time. 14:10 Today I'm going to appoint three of my wise men 14:13 as governors of all my rulers. 14:15 Oh, how wonderful. 14:16 Wonderful indeed. 14:18 Oh, King Darius live forever, 14:20 your rulers have arrived. 14:21 Send them in. 14:22 You may enter. 14:32 Today, I King Darius has special news. 14:37 As leader of the Medes and Persians, 14:41 king of the most vast empire. 14:44 Appointing over 120 rulers 14:47 to rule over my territories and provinces. 14:50 I have chosen you three to be governors 14:54 over my 120 rulers. 14:57 Thank you your majesty. 14:58 You will not be disappointed your majesty. 14:59 I intend not to be. 15:01 For you will report back to me every month, 15:03 everything you see and hear.

It's nice to be back. 20:45 Well, I'm excited I know that we share 20:48 a passion for witnessing, don't we? Yep. 20:50 And I always inspired by all the things 20:53 that you always do in something 20:54 to share Jesus. And you have something 20:57 very interesting in your lap. What is that? 21:01 Your Kids Time special funds. 21:03 Well, let's hold it real still so our cameras 21:04 can get a good look and show 21:06 the boys and girls at home. 21:07 Wow, that's an awful lot of money. 21:11 Can I see that? 21:12 Let's there is a lot of money in here. 21:15 How did you get all this money? 21:17 We sold the Kids' Time dogs and the scarves. 21:21 So you decided to start selling 21:23 some Kids' Time products, didn't you? 21:25 And in fact, Luke is wearing a Kids' Time t-shirt. 21:28 And he's got a Kids' Time scarf on 21:31 and that's one of the Maxwell scarves 21:32 and you can wear them or you can put them 21:34 on an animal that the wonderful way 21:36 to share Jesus, isn't that Luke? 21:37 Because kids' see that Kids' Time logo 21:40 and they go, "Ah, excuse me. 21:42 What's Kids' Time?" 21:44 And guess what? 21:45 You get a little chance to tell them, don't you? 21:48 And isn't that? Now hold, now hold out 21:49 some of those other scarves you have over there. 21:51 You have seven and there's four colors. 21:54 There's yellow, there's orange, 21:56 and green and there's also red one 21:58 which you're wearing 21:59 and do you have a personal favorite Luke? 22:03 Probably the yellow. 22:04 Probably the yellow, 22:05 I think that's a very popular one as well, 22:07 lot of kids' like the yellow. 22:09 Max looks also awful good in yellow. But honestly Max 22:14 has more close than Miss Brenda I think. 22:16 Because he has a scarf that matches everything 22:19 that Miss Brenda is wearing so he has lots of colors. 22:22 But we are offering four of those colors 22:25 to kids who want them. 22:26 So they're wonderful to wearing. 22:29 For girls to wearing in their hair as a bandana. 22:32 Guys can wear it like you're wearing Luke 22:34 is it just scarf around your neck. 22:37 Some kids have purchased quite a few of them 22:40 and tied them together and then use them for a belt 22:42 and that was really cute. 22:43 So there's many, many ways to wear them. 22:46 Now--I--this is when you brought a case of these 22:49 and sold them, right? Yep. 22:51 So let me put this money down over here. 22:54 And you know I don't happen 22:56 to have a knife with me boys and girls. 22:58 But our favorite floor director does, Larry. 23:01 Let's ask Larry. Larry can you come on in 23:04 and say hi to the boys and girls 23:05 and help us out here. Okay. 23:07 When kids come and take Kids' Time 23:09 with Miss Brenda one thing they love 23:11 and they always tell me how much they love Larry. 23:13 Larry is always there helping us everyway he can. 23:16 And now he's gonna help open our box. 23:18 So when you order a box of Kids' Time dog. 23:22 Watch out what we have? 23:24 Can you grab one of those and let's put one, 23:26 oh, look how soften. 23:27 Can you put one on your lap there 23:29 and the boys and girls can see. 23:31 Isn't he cute boys and girls? 23:33 Look at his little yellow scarf 23:35 with the Kids' Time logo on it. 23:37 And he even has a special tag on his ear where he-- 23:41 where we have the Kids' Time website. 23:42 So this is our witnessing dog 23:44 and you give away a Maxwell dog 23:46 then you also are giving a way an opportunity 23:49 for that child to go to the Kids' Time website 23:51 and learn more about Jesus, isn't that awesome?
