Kids learn to sit like a piano player (sit up tall, feet flat, soft round hands), hear the low, deep sounds on the left (like a big, sleepy bear) and the high, tweety sounds on the right (like a little bird), and meet the white keys and the black keys. The black keys live in groups of two (the twins) and three (the triplets). Then Ivy's favorite trick: find the two black keys in the middle of the piano, and middle C is the white key just to their left. Every pair of twins has a C just to its left, and Pemmo counts five C's from low to high. To finish, everyone sits back and listens to a little piano song that starts on middle C, with the keys lighting up as they play.https://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep01-980807ab.mp4247yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep02-2de83c82.jpgArt & Music Studio Episode 2: C, D, E!Ivy Keys is back for lesson two, with a little help from Pemmo of the Tiny Bots. After a quick look back at middle C, kids learn the musical alphabet: just seven letters, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and then they start again, all the way up the piano. C lives just to the left of the two black keys (the twins), D sits right in the middle of the twins, like a puppy in its doghouse, and E is just to the right. Everyone goes up C, D, E and back down E, D, C, finds every D and every E from low to high, and then plays a first song, "Three Little Steps", an original Botsville tune that uses only C, D and E.https://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep02-2de83c82.mp4242yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep03-918dfb24.jpgArt & Music Studio Episode 3: F, G and Five Fingers!In lesson three, Ivy Keys and Pemmo meet two new notes. F is the white key just to the left of the three black keys (the triplets), and G is the next white key, between the first two triplets. Now the letters go C, D, E, F, G! Kids find every F and every G, then meet their finger numbers: thumb 1, pointer 2, middle 3, ring 4 and pinky 5. With the right thumb on middle C and one finger on each key up to G, everyone climbs up and back down in five-finger position, then listens and plays along with "Mary Had a Little Lamb", with the finger numbers shown on the keys.https://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep03-918dfb24.mp4246yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep04-1c738930.jpgArt & Music Studio Episode 4: Meet the Music Staff!In lesson four, Ivy Keys shows how music is written down. The staff has five lines, counted from the bottom up, with four spaces in between. A line note has the line right through its middle, like a bead on a string, and a space note sits snug between two lines, like a pillow. The curly treble clef curls around the second line, G, so it is also called the G clef. Pemmo learns that higher on the staff means higher on the piano. Then everyone links the staff to the keys (middle C, D, E, F and G), plays "line or space?", and reads along with "Ode to Joy" by Ludwig van Beethoven.https://botvilleusa.com/v/piano-ep04-1c738930.mp4253yes https://botvilleusa.com/university/2026-10-22https://botvilleusa.com/v/bu-trailer-928a024f.jpgBotsville University Trailer: Botsville University Has a Brand-New Look!Welcome to Botsville University, where older kids and grown-ups come to learn! Nana, the President of Botsville USA, has exciting news: Botsville University videos now have a brand-new, movie-quality look. Real places, real ideas, and our friendly bots, with Professor Tinkersby. And just like Botsville, we're always building, and always getting better. See you on campus!https://botvilleusa.com/v/bu-trailer-928a024f.mp446yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/bu00.jpgBotsville University Episode 1: Welcome to Botsville University!The bots built Botsville USA brick by brick, and it keeps on growing. Now the Builder Crew has built their biggest project yet: Botsville University, a campus for older kids and grown-ups who love to learn. Nana, the President of Botsville USA, has big news: Botsville is searching for the University's very first President. Someone wise, curious and kind. Who will it be? Stay tuned! Coming up at Botsville University: real science, how things work, the stories of history, smart money skills and the art of building.https://botvilleusa.com/v/bu00.mp489yes https://botvilleusa.com/finance/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/chabotville/2026-10-22https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep04-v2.jpgChabotville Episode 1: Hanukkah LightsThe bots build a blue-and-white brick menorah, and Reb Chabot, a kind and wise bot, comes to visit and explains Hanukkah: long ago the brave Maccabees got back the holy Temple in Jerusalem and made it special again, and one little jar of oil kept shining for eight days. The helper candle called the shamash lights the others (and reminds us we can be helpers too), one more candle is added each night, and the menorah goes in a window so everyone can see the light. They count all eight candles, spin a dreidel, talk about latkes and jelly doughnuts cooked in oil, and sing along to a Hanukkah tune with words on the screen.https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep04-v2.mp4200yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/bc02-v2.jpgChabotville Episode 2: The Great Sukkah RescueSukkot starts tomorrow when a gust of wind tips over the big city sukkah in the town square (nobody was inside, and everyone is safe). The Builder Crew cleans up, finds out the walls weren't braced or tied tight, and Reb Chabot, a kind and wise bot, arrives to teach them the rules as they rebuild it the right way: at least three walls sturdy enough to stand in a normal wind (even toy bricks work), not too short and not too tall, and a roof covering called schach made of cut plants like branches and bamboo, with more shade than sun, room to see the stars, and no tree or roof above it. Remixa decorates it, the crew shares their first holiday meal inside, Reb Chabot shares that the sukkah reminds us of the clouds of glory that protected the Israelites in the desert, and the next morning he leads the four kinds: the lulav (palm branch) bound with myrtle and willow, held together with the etrog (citron), with a blessing, then waved in all six directions. Chag Sameach!https://botvilleusa.com/v/bc02f.mp4266yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/challah-v4.jpgChabotville Episode 3: Mrs. Chabot's Kitchen: The Great Challah ComebackTonight is Shabbat, and the whole neighborhood is coming for dinner! But when Noodle, the friendly neighborhood puppy, gobbles up the challah cooling by the window, Mrs. Chabot calmly shows Pebbit, Stack, Widgely and Trilla how to bake it again, step by step: knead the dough, let it rise, separate challah with a blessing, braid three ropes and brush on egg. Reb Chabot stops by to explain separating challah: long ago a piece of the dough was a gift for the kohanim, and it reminds us that what we have isn't only for us. Together they save Shabbat dinner, and Reb and Mrs. Chabot explain what Shabbat is: a weekly day of rest from Friday just before sundown until the stars come out on Saturday night, with Shabbat candles, Kiddush, two challahs that remind us of the double portion of manna, time for family and friends, and Havdalah. Noodle is fine and nobody is in trouble: he gets his own dog treat and a bowl of water. Shabbat Shalom!https://botvilleusa.com/v/challah-v4.mp4254yes https://botvilleusa.com/episodes/2026-10-22https://botvilleusa.com/v/tb01-v2.jpgTiny Bots Episode 1: Mixing ColorsProfessor Tinkersby has a wonder question: what happens when we mix colors? The Tiny Bots put on their smocks and meet the three primary colors, red, yellow and blue. They find out that red and yellow make orange, yellow and blue make green, and blue and red make purple. Then they count the six colors of a rainbow with Pemmo, share their paints, take a big breath with Lullo, sing a color song with the words on screen, and clean up together with Tibbo.https://botvilleusa.com/v/tb01-v2.mp4190yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/tb02-v2.jpgTiny Bots Episode 2: Down on the FarmProfessor Tinkersby and the Tiny Bots visit a friendly farm for an "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" sing-along, with the words on screen and the animal sounds on the beat. They meet a cow (moo), a pig (oink), a duck (quack), a sheep (baa), a horse (neigh) and a chicken (cluck), and spell each name letter by letter: C-O-W, P-I-G, D-U-C-K, S-H-E-E-P, H-O-R-S-E, C-H-I-C-K-E-N. Then they count the animals from 1 to 6 with Pemmo, learn to be kind to animals with Lullo, and help with feeding time with Tibbo: hay for the cow, little seeds for the hen, and fresh water for everyone.https://botvilleusa.com/v/tb02-v2.mp4258yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/ep01-v3.jpgBotsville Bots Episode 1: The Wobbly BridgeThe bots build a bridge so the little red car can cross the lake. When it wobbles and falls down, they think and try again, and learn two builder tricks: a wide base keeps things steady, and triangles make things strong.https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep01-v3.mp4139yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/ep02-v2.jpgBotsville Bots Episode 2: The Little LakeThe bots build a little brick pond in the town garden. When it leaks, Widgely has an idea-bulb: a pond liner! Then they learn what fish need: clean water, air, a little food, and room to swim.https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep02-v2.mp4158yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/ep03-v2.jpgBotsville Bots Episode 3: The PlaygroundThe bots build a playground and find the science inside: a slide is a ramp, a seesaw is a lever that needs balance, and a swing goes back and forth like a pendulum. They also practice taking turns and playing safely.https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep03-v2.mp4136yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/ep05-v2.jpgBotsville Bots Episode 4: The Giant SkyscraperAn old, empty building in Botsville tumbles down (nobody was inside, and everyone is safe). The bots clean up together, sort the bricks to use again, and learn the old building fell because its foundation wasn't strong anymore. Then they build a giant skyscraper: a deep foundation underground, a strong frame like a skeleton, a crane lifting heavy parts, a core with elevators and stairs, ten floors to count, and shiny glass for its skin. They also learn tall buildings are made to sway a tiny bit in the wind and stay safe.https://botvilleusa.com/v/ep05-v2.mp4164yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/bc01-v2.jpgBuilder Crew Episode 1: How to Organize and Build a Brick SetZipley wants to build the new space station set in ten minutes flat, so the Builder Crew shows the smart way: set up a clear, flat, well-lit space, open one numbered bag at a time, sort pieces by color and size (a muffin tin works great), read the parts box for each step, count studs to tell pieces apart, and build in sections. When Zipley rushes and skips a step, a brick separator helps him undo it, and he learns that checking every step against the picture is actually faster. Then Remixa adds her own creative touch.https://botvilleusa.com/v/bc01c.mp4219yeshttps://botvilleusa.com/v/bc03-v2.jpgBuilder Crew Episode 2: The Big City RideA storm washes out the tracks and tips over the friendly old Botsville train (nobody was on board, and everyone is safe). The Builder Crew plans one big loop with a stop at every place and builds a new self-driving train, and Professor Tinkersby explains how it sees: cameras, sensors that time how long invisible waves take to bounce back, and a map. After a slow test ride, they add a low bumper sensor so the train can spot Noodle the puppy, then add flying cars with sky lanes and bright landing pads.https://botvilleusa.com/v/bc03c.mp4257yes https://botvilleusa.com/bots/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/news/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/stickers/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/grown-ups/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/store/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/about/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/privacy/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/sponsors/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/tb01/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/tb02/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep01/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep02/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep03/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep05/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc01/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc03/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep01/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep02/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep03/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep04/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bu00/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep04/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/challah/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc02/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/nana-and-bot/2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/tb01/botsville-tiny-bots-mixing-colors-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/tb02/botsville-tiny-bots-down-on-the-farm-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep01/botsville-bots-wobbly-bridge-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep02/botsville-bots-little-lake-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep03/botsville-bots-playground-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep05/botsville-bots-giant-skyscraper-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc01/builder-crew-organize-and-build-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc03/builder-crew-big-city-ride-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep01/botsville-piano-ep01-hello-keyboard-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep02/botsville-piano-ep02-c-d-e-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep03/botsville-piano-ep03-five-fingers-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/piano-ep04/botsville-piano-ep04-meet-the-staff-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bu00/botsville-university-welcome-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/ep04/chabotville-hanukkah-lights-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/challah/chabotville-great-challah-comeback-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/bc02/chabotville-great-sukkah-rescue-ebook.pdf2026-10-22 https://botvilleusa.com/books/nana-and-bot/botsville-adventures-of-nana-and-bot-ebook.pdf2026-10-22
