Mr. Jay's Neighborhood - How (Not) To Electrify An Outdoor Shed

It's a wonderful day in my neighborhood!

A wonderful day for a neighbor,

I need you to be,

I'd like you to be,

I'd LOVE you to be my new neeeeiiiighbor!

Hi boys and girls!

Mr. Jay here!  Welcome to Mr. Jay's Neighborhood!

It's a beautiful day in my neighborhood and I am so glad we can be together today!

In today's we are going to talk about how to electrify an outdoor shed!  It's important for a shed to have power!

Can you spell electrify?  E-L-E-C-T-R-I-F-Y  Sure you can!

Remember boys and girls, safety is always first.  We want to be safe in our neighborhood, and in our homes!

First, in order to have power, we need a power source!

And once we find it, be sure that any cable we use is made for the job.  Just plug it in!

Orange is easy to see, so orange cables are very good to use!

Can you spell orange?  O-R-A-N-G-E  Sure you can!

To protect the cable, why not bury it? 

If it's underground nothing can happen to it!

Uh, oh!  A sidewalk is in the way!

What should we do, boys and girls?

Well, our orange cable sure can't be underground any more.  But it still needs to be protected!  How can we do that?

Very good!  When it comes up out of the ground, we tie it to a railing so big and little feet can't walk on it!  We don't want a trip hazard!  Somebody might get hurt!

Can you spell hazard?  H-A-Z-A-R-D  Sure you can!

That will keep it safe until we can put it underground again!

Great!  We got around that pesky sidewalk, didn't we boys and girls!

And look!  The cable is still orange!  What does that mean?

Very good!  It means it's still safe!

But it still needs protection!  So, since there is no sidewalk in the way, we can bury it again!

We don't want to see it again until it gets to the shed!

And there it is!

Look at how much power the outdoor shed has!

This shed is quite the work shop too!

Can you spell workshop, boys and girls?  W-O-R-K-S-H-O-P  Sure you can!

Look at all the other cables in the shed!  Wow, they sure can do a lot of work there.  This shed is FULL of tools!

What's that square white thing on the left?

It's a freezer!  And it's plugged in!  Why is it plugged in?  Because something is inside!

Do you know what's inside, boys and girls?

A deer head!  The deer head is in the freezer because it's waiting its turn to go to the taxidermist!

Can you spell taxidermist, boys and girls?  T-A-X-I-D-E-R-M-I-S-T  Sure you can!

That's a fun word!  Do you know what a taxidermist is?  He gets things ready and stuffs them so they can be put on the wall.  Right!  Just like at the museum!

Do you know why this deer head is in the outdoor shed?  Because Mommy would get upset if she found it in the freezer inside the house!  That's right, silly Mommy.  Mommies can be like that.

Well, boys and girls, it's time for Mr. Jay to leave.

We sure have had fun today!  Thanks for stopping by!

Do you want to come to Mr. Jay's Neighborhood again?  Sure you do!

Mr. Jay sure has fun in his neighborhood!  A lot of home inspectors are very jealous that Mr. Jay has so much fun!!

It's a wonderful day in my neighborhood!

A wonderful day for a neighbor,

I need you to be,

I'd like you to be,

I'd LOVE you to be my new neeeeiiiighbor!

                                          Gee won't you be,

                                        Please won't you be,

                            I'd LOVE you to be my new neighbor!
