‘Cause today we're celebrating things that make us happy.

PINKALICIOUS: Sing and play along with us if you can, okay? In the car, at home, in your yard, or wherever you are!

PINKALICIOUS: What a good boy.
10
PETER: Bleh! Sloppy kisses.
11
Ugh. Stop!
12
PINKALICIOUS: He sure does like you, Peter.
13
Oh! Hi, listening friends!
14
Peter and I are here in the park with a special friend who's cute and furry and loves to give kiss Can you guess who it is?
15
That's right.
16
It's a dog.
17
And not just any dog.
18
It's Rusty, our friend Rafael's dog.
19
PETER: We're pet sitting Rusty while Rafael is at the dentist.
20
We've been trying to teach him some tricks, but it hasn't been easy.
21
PINKALICIOUS: Let■s try fetch!
22
Rusty! Ready to get your squeaky ball?
23
Okay, here goes the throw.
24
Oh, go get your ball, Rusty!
25
Go fetch! Yay, Rusty!
26
PETER: Look at him go!
27
Wait. That's not his squeaky ball.
28
What■s he bringing back?
29
Rusty!
30
This is a stick.
31
Where's your squeaky ball?
32
PINKALICIOUS: I guess Rusty just wanted to bring back a stick instead.
33
Didn■t you, Rusty?
34
Animals know what make them happy, just like people do.
35
Remember when Mommy made a pinkeriffic cat bed for our kitty, Rosie?
36
But Rosie wouldn■t sleep in it!
37
PETER: Right! I remember that.
38
Rosie only wanted to sleep in the laundry basket.
39
PINKALICIOUS: We sure do love Rosie.
40
Listening friends, do you have a pet or know anyone who does?
41
Tell us! What kind?
42
Hamsters?
43
Lizards? Birds?
44
A pony?! Wow! So many kinds of pets.
45
They all sound fun.
46
PETER: Like Rusty!
47
Pinkalicious, do you think I could try playing fetch with Rusty now?
48
PINKALICIOUS: Sure!
49
Here, try throwing his jingle ball.
50
Rafael said it's his favorite.
51
Hopefully he'll bring it back and then you can give him a treat.
52
PETER: Got it. Ready, Rusty?
53
Fetch! He got it.
54
Attaboy, Rusty.
55
Now bring it back and get a treat, PINKALICIOUS: Wait.
56
He's running toward the fountain PETER: He's running THROUGH the fountain.
57
Here he comes now!
58
PINKALICIOUS: Uh oh!
59
Get ready to get wet, everyone.
60
He's gonna shaaakeeee!
61
BOTH: Rusty!!
62
PETER: Why doesn't Rusty want to tricks for treats like other dogs do?
63
PINKALICIOUS: I guess he just likes to do things the Rusty way I remember a Valentine's Day when even Cupid didn't want to do Cupid-y things.
64
He just wanted to be a real kid, just like us.
65
I wanna be a real kid In every way I wanna be a real kid Today's the day I wanna play with dolls and blocks And roll down hills and climb on rocks And ride my bike till the day is through 'Cause that's what a real kid would do! PINKALICIOUS: But what about valentines?
66
What about love?
67
What about flying in the clouds above? Oh, yeah, I like all of that. But...
68
I wanna be a real kid But what about valentines?
69
A very, very real kid What about love?
70
An absolutely real kid What about flying in the clouds above In every way I wanna be a real kid What about valentines?
71
What about valentines?
72
ALL: Today is the day PINKALICIOUS: Rusty and Cupid aren't the only ones who like to do things their own special way.
73
I once tried putting yellow ribbons in my hair, because they look so pretty on Jasmine, but I just didn't feel like me in them.
74
PETER: I can't imagine you wearing any other color but pink, Pinkalicious.
75
It's kind of like me and my scooter.
76
I love riding my scooter everywhere.
77
It's my favorite.
78
PINKALICIOUS: That■s definitely a Peter thing.
79
And I like to sing.
80
La la la la la la la la.
81
PETER: And that's definitely a Pinkalicious thing.
82
PINKALICIOUS: Listening friends, What's something you love to do?
83
Something that makes you YOU?
84
Playing bouncy ball, coloring, playing trucks, and story time.
85
Those things sound pinkatastic!
86
PETER: Rusty thinks so too!
87
I still think it would be cool if he could learn some tricks.
88
PINKALICIOUS: Maybe he just wants to do tricks his own way.
89
All right, Rusty.
90
Let's try...sitting!
91
Sit, Rusty! Sit.
92
PETER: He■s sitting! And now he■s rolling over.
93
Rusty! PINKALICIOUS: Looks like Rusty CAN sit, but what he really wants is a tummy rub.
94
Don't you, boy?
95
That's a good rub.
96
He looks so happy.
97
PETER: Sure does.
98
Because he did things his way.
99
Just like when I ride my scooter PINKALICIOUS: And when I wear the color pink.
100
That's what makes us happy.
101
Drawing butterflies and flowers Jumping rope and building towers Dressing up for Halloween Bouncing on a trampoline Yay!
102
That's what makes me Happy That's what makes me happy.
103

104
Hmm... what makes me happy?
105
Climbing trees, playing I Spy Flying a kite up in the sky Listening to owls hoot Doing tricks while I scoot Watch out, here comes the back wheel bunny hop!
106
BOTH: Yay! That's what makes me Happy That's what makes me happy!
107
I have an idea.
108
Why don't we do some of the things our listening friends love to do.
109
Listeners, what makes you happy?
110
PETER: Someone said they love playing with trucks.
111
That's my kind of fun, too.

116
PETER: Hey! Whatcha got there, Rusty?
117
PINKALICIOUS: It■s his squeaky ball! He finally fetched it!
118
Oh, look, here comes Rafael.
119
PETER: Hi, Rafael.
120
RAFAEL: Hi Peter! Hi Pinkalicious.
121
Thanks for watching Rusty for me!
122
PINKALICIOUS: No problem.
123
We had fun doing things that make us happy.
124
PETER: We figured out that doing tricks for treats isn't Rusty's favorite, but he really loves tummy rubs.
125
RAFAEL: He sure does! And I love Rusty no matter what.
126
There may be other doggies who learn tricks so easily, but none of them can sing like you. You're a top dog to me. You don't shake paws like some dogs do or sit obediently. But you can dance to a kazoo. Oh, you're top dog to me. You■re my Rusty, you're my friend. True and trusty to the end. Even when you're chasing squirrels. You're the best dog in the world. Yes, you■re top dog to me. PINKALICIOUS: You really are a good boy, Rusty.
127
PETER: The best!
128
RAFAEL: Come on, Rusty. Time to go home.
129
Thanks again Pinkalicious and Peter!
130
PINKALICIOUS & PETER: Bye, Rafael! Goodbye!
131
Bye, Rusty.
132
PETER: We had so much fun playing with Rusty!
133
We hope you did too.
134
PINKALICIOUS And we had fun playing with all of you, friends.
135
But the best part was thinking about how doing what we love makes us happy.
136
So go do what makes you happy.

Who Will Benefit from This Video?

This video is perfect for beginner to intermediate English learners aiming to build conversational fluency and confidence. It’s ideal for those practicing IELTS speaking or looking to improve everyday communication, as the dialogue mirrors natural, casual interactions between siblings. The simple, engaging topics—like pets and happiness—make it easy to follow, while the playful tone keeps learning fun. Whether you’re new to learn English with videos or refining your skills, this podcast-style content offers relatable scenarios to practice speaking and listening.

Useful Words & Phrases to Add to Your Vocabulary

The conversation is packed with catchy, everyday expressions. Here are a few to master:

  • Pinkamazing/pinkatastic: Playful, creative adjectives (like "amazing" or "fantastic") with a fun twist—great for adding personality to descriptions.
  • Pet sitting: Taking care of someone’s pet while they’re away—essential for talking about responsibilities or hobbies.
  • Sloppy kisses: A casual phrase to describe messy, affectionate dog licks—perfect for vivid storytelling.
  • Fetch: A classic dog trick where the pet retrieves an object—useful for discussing pets or games.

Tips to Improve English Pronunciation with This Video

The speakers use clear, child-friendly intonation, making it an excellent tool for english speaking practice and pronunciation. Focus on these key areas:

  • Stress in playful adjectives: Words like "Peterrific" (rhymes with "terrific") and "pinkeriffic" emphasize the second syllable. Practice stressing these to sound natural.
  • Casual contractions: Phrases like "didn’t you" and "what’s he" are spoken quickly. Listen for how "did not" becomes "didn’t" and mimic the reduced "t" sound.
  • Intonation in questions: When Pinkalicious asks, "Can you guess who it is?" her voice rises at the end. This upward intonation is key for yes/no questions—use the shadowing technique (repeating lines immediately after the speaker) to copy this pattern.

By focusing on these elements, you’ll not only expand your vocabulary but also refine your pronunciation, making your speech sound more natural and confident—critical for success in IELTS speaking practice and real-world conversations.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondĂ©e sur la science, dĂ©veloppĂ©e Ă  l'origine pour la formation des interprĂštes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous Ă©coutez de l'anglais natif et le rĂ©pĂ©tez immĂ©diatement Ă  voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un dĂ©calage de 1 Ă  2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amĂ©lioration significative de la prĂ©cision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la comprĂ©hension orale et de la fluiditĂ©.
