Here's a doodle sent in by Geraldine Swazewski of Evanston, Illinois. Can you guess what it is? What is it? It's a soda machine's view of a dime. During the winter, it is very quiet here, in our Indian pueblo.
There isn't any tourists around here now, only the Indians that live in the village. I'm Laverne Concha. I'm a Taos Pueblo Indian. We have no running water in our own house, so I have to get the water from the Taos River that runs through the village. This is our oven. It's made of the same material that our houses are made of. Mud and straw and water. After we lit the fire, we have to let it set for an hour before we can bake. My mother bakes in special Indian bread that we sell to the tourists in the summer.
The bread is made with salt, grease, yeast, warm water and a little bit of sugar and a It's a lot of flour. Now, go get the tomorrow we have. It takes about 45 minutes. Don't burn yourself. My mother baked 60 loaves a day in the summer. Just get it here.
Two... One blue... Blue... My mother taught me to bead on a loom that she made herself. A lot of our women in our pueblo make beads and sell them at the craft shop. It's an easy loom to make. She took an old ski, put two blocks of wood on each end, And put some nails on the end of the ski, then I just want some string around the nails At the end they'll have to be the same This is my grandpa little Joe
He lives up in the mountains. Sometimes he comes down to the pueblo to visit us. My grandfather was born in the pueblo, and I was too. Grandpa is speaking to us in Tewa, which is our language in our Pueblo. He is telling us a story when he was about my age. He went with his grandfather and two uncles to Oklahoma. He was visiting some Indians, and when they got there, they had a feast.
. . I really like wintertime in the Pueblo, everything is quiet and covered with snow. Here's a doodle sent in by Gene Freudenberg of College Point, New York. Can you guess what it is? What is it?

I am a tree. Oh, it's so fun out all day growing in the sun. And when winter comes, I lose all my leaves. People picked them up to make winter wreaths. Oh, it's so fun being a tree blowing in the wind. Whee! That's huge! Here's a poem sent in by Barbara Doherty of Mount Vernon, Illinois. Rain. When the sun seems to run out without any notice and the clouds turn inside out, the rain is near. Quiet finds its way into your small part of the world with rain at its side. The sky comes alive with emotion Excited, sad, laughing and crying Not knowing what to do
Rain starts falling with a soft, happy sound Then at last a roar builds in itself And at last it cools The happiness and sunshine come again As if they have always been there And quiet makes its way into the earth once more That gives a lot of feelings That gives a lot of feelings Here's a doodle sent in by Libby Lyons of Portland, Indiana.

Description
Series Description
"ZOOM is a children's show comprised of weekly half-hour episodes which showed what youngsters do and think. Seven ZOOMers hosted each episdoe, and the cast changed over run of series. ZOOM premiered locally as ""Summer-Do"" in 1970, and premiered nationally in January 1972. ZOOMers played games, told jokes, riddles (called Fannee Doolees) and stories and did crafts projects...and invited ideas from their audience. The result was an avalanche of ZOOMmail - in the first season, over 200,000 letters. Additionally, the Ubbi Dubbi language was invented by ZOOM."
