Meet Rollie Roundman[]
(The scene opens to a school auditorium stage. A talking shape appears. His name is Rollie Roundman, and he is a blue circle.)
ROLLIE ROUNDMAN: Hi kids, I'm rockin' Rollie, the really radical rock n roll Roundman, and I wanna show you some really cool things the most beautiful things you will ever see... COLORS! That's right colors are all around us in our wonderful universe. Let's sing a song about some of the colors we see every day.
Colors, Colors, All Around[]
Colors, colors, all around
Oh, so many to be found
Colors, colors everywhere
For the whole wide world to share
The sky is blue, and I can see
White clouds above a big blue sea
White clouds, blue sea
Colors all around to see
The dirt is brown; the grass is green
And so are all the many trees
Brown dirt, green tree
Colors all around to see
A yellow bird is singing to
An orange striped cat on the ground
The black dog wants to chase him
Colors, colors all around
A red ball rolls around today
A purple shovel blocks its way
The sun shines down its light all day
It makes me want to say
Colors, colors all around
Oh, so many to be found
Colors, colors, everywhere
For the whole wide world to share
Yeah yeah yeah
Colors all around us
They are everywhere
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Woo!

Meet Trollie Triangle[]
ROLLIE ROUNDMAN: That was really radical! I have been having so much fun learning with you. But now it's time for me to introduce my good friend. His name is Trollie Triangle. (to Trollie Triangle) Take it away, Trollie!
(Rollie Roundman has to split and goes off the auditorium stage to have a break. Then Trollie Triangle --a red triangle-- appears. He appears with a balalaika --new version only.)
Learn Our Shapes[]
Hey, hey, cool kids, look all around us shapes are everywhere, let's learn the names of some of these shapes!
Come on everyone.
Let’s have a super time.
We’re going to learn our shapes,
And make a rhyme.
A circle is round,
Like a plate, pie, or penny.
If you look for a flat side,
It doesn’t have any.
(Chorus)
A triangle is pointed,
Like an ice cream cone. (An ice cream cone appears. It turns out to be green ice cream in a sugar or waffle cone. And because the ice cream is green, it is either mint chocolate chip or pistachio.)
It has 3 sides,
To call its own.
(Chorus)
Now a rectangle,
It's like a door.
It has 4 sides.
No less, no more!
Come on everyone.
We had a super time.
Now we learned some shapes.
And we made a rhyme.
Shapes Are All Around Us[]
Shapes are all around us,
For all of us to see.
Let’s point to some.
Just you and me.
A circle is round,
Like a clock that’s on a wall,
A big black tire,
Or a fun beach ball.
(Chorus)
A triangle has 3 sides.
It’s pointed on the end,
Like a little tent,
Standing strong against the wind.
(Chorus)
Rectangles are easy.
They have 4 sides.
I’ll tell you what they look like.
Just let me be your guide.
Rectangles are found,
In windows and in doors,
Books and papers.
(Trollie) "Now let’s find some more!"
(Chorus)
What Color Is It Large Medium and Small[]
Now that we know some shapes and colors let's play a game called "What Color Is It"
(gasping) Look at all the shapes *on this page*. They are all different sizes, some are little, some are big and some are in between we call the little shapes small, the big shapes are called large, and the ones in between small and large are called medium. Neato! Now let's play the fun game "What Color Is It" with Trollie.
I see a large circle *on this page*
What color is it? What color is it?
The large circle is… PURPLE, ha ha!
I see a medium triangle *on this page*
What color is it? What color is it?
The medium triangle is… RED!

(The phrase *on this page* is for the audio version, but not the video/DVD version.)
Name That Shape[]
Hey, you were super duper, now let's play another game, this 1 is called "Name That Shape"
I see a black roof on top of the house
I see a black roof on top of the house
Can you name that shape as quickly as a mouse?
The roof is a TRIANGLE
I see a purple ball that rolls around
I see a purple ball that rolls around
Can you name that shape and then touch the ground?
The ball is a CIRCLE
On the front of the house, there is a red door
On the front of the house, there is a red door
Can you name its shape before we sing some more?
The door is a RECTANGLE
I see a blue pond where the ducks like to swim
I see a blue pond where the ducks like to swim
Can you name that shape before we sing again?
The pond is a CIRCLE
I see a green leaf growin’ on a flower
I see a green leaf growin’ on a flower
Can you name that shape and stand tall like a tower?
The leaf is a TRIANGLE
I see a brown post that’s stuck in the ground
It’s a part of a fence stuck in the ground
Can you name that shape, stand up, and spin around?
The post is a RECTANGLE
There’s a yellow sun shinin’ in the sky
There’s a yellow sun way up in the sky
Can you name that shape then wink your eye?
The sun is a CIRCLE
I see an orange beak on a bird that’s black
I see an orange beak on a bird that’s black
Can you name that shape before the ducks go quack?
The beak is a TRIANGLE
I see a white window on the house big and tall
I see a white window on the house big and tall
Can you name that shape and stand straight as a wall?
The window is a RECTANGLE
Meet Rockford Rectangle[]
TROLLIE TRIANGLE: Well, I have to split. But say hello to my good friend, Rockford Rectangle.
(Trollie Triangle goes offscreen to have a break. So he leaves the auditorium stage. Then Rockford Rectangle --a green rectangle-- appears.)
ROCKFORD RECTANGLE: Thank you, Trollie, pleased to meet you everyone.
Music Helps Me Count To 5[]
Now that you know about shapes and colors, let's try something new, let's learn how to count, hold up 1 of your hands and sing along.
Music helps me count to 5
On just 1 hand
I can count my fingers
And then do it again
1,2,3,4,5
(Rockford) You are such good counting.
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5
Music helps me count to 5
With 1 of my feet
I can count my toes
And keep the beat
1,2,3,4,5
(Rockford) Excellent!
1,2,3,4,5
1,2,3,4,5
Music helps me count to 5
Using just my mind
I can keep the rhythm
And stay in time
1,2,3,4,5
(Rockford) That's the spirit!
1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,4,5
Zero[]
(Rollie) What if I put my hands behind my back? How many fingers can you count then?
(Rockford) My good friend, you can't count any fingers.
(Rollie) (gasps) Oh, no! What are we going to do now!?
(Rockford) Do calm down. We can say we see zero fingers.
(Rollie) Zero?
(Rockford) That's right. Zero is the same thing as none.
(Camera cuts to the lollipops. As Rollie explains about having zero lollipops, the candy part on the stick --of the lollipops-- dissolves and the sticks disappear offscreen. In the old version, it is three strawberry flavored lollipops --three red lollipops. In the new version, it is one strawberry, one lemon, and one blueberry --one red, one yellow, and one blue lollipop.)
(Rollie) Oh, so when I don't have any lollipops, I would have zero lollipops.
(Rockford) That is correct.
(The scene cuts back to Rollie and Rockford.)
(Rollie) Bummer!
(Rockford) Indeed.
Mixing Colors[]
(Trollie) Hey, Rollie. What happens when colors get mixed together?
(Rollie) They make other colors. And did you know that with just three colors you can make lots of other colors? Those three colors are called "primary colors".
(Rockford) Excuse me, my good friend. But what are the primary colors?
Red, yellow, blue,
Red, yellow, blue.
With red, yellow, blue,
There's so much you can do.
(Rockford) Oh, goody let's mix red and yellow.
Red and yellow mixed together,
Make the color orange.
Red and yellow mixed together,
Make the color… ORANGE!
(Trollie) What about the blues man?
Red and blue mixed together,
Make the color purple.
Red and blue mixed together
Make the color… PURPLE!
(Rollie holds up a can of yellow paint and a can of blue paint and tells the singers to not forget about yellow and blue and mix them together. Since red and yellow make orange, while red and blue make purple, Rollie wants to know what yellow and blue make. Because there is one other color we can mix with two primary colors.)
(Rollie) But don't forget yellow and blue.
Yellow and blue mixed together,
Make the color green.
Yellow and blue mixed together,
Make the color… GREEN!
(So indeed, yellow and blue make the secondary color green. But what happens when you mix all three primary colors? Rollie explains that in the final verse before going back to the same refrain line in the song.)
(Rollie) And if I mix all three together,
What color will be found?
Red, yellow, and blue together,
They make the color… BROWN!
(In response, Trollie holds a can of red paint, Rockford has a can of yellow, and Rollie has a can of blue. They dump the cans of red, yellow, and blue paint into the magic paint glass. And since red, yellow, and blue --all three primary colors-- make the color brown, the red, yellow, and blue paint make brown paint. So brown is the color you get when you mix all three primary colors. After the viewer gets brown, the song returns to its refrain verse or "stanza".)
Red, yellow, blue,
Red, yellow, blue.
With red, yellow, blue,
There's so much you can do.
Counting Up To 10[]
ROCKFORD RECTANGLE: I know that you know how to count to 5. And you're doing a wonderful job. Now let's see if we can go up to 10. This time we use both of our hands. Ready?
(To count to ten --using fingers and/or toes-- we use both of our hands and feet. Using one foot and one hand was counting up to the number five. But when we count to ten, we use both hands instead of just one of them.)
Hold up your hands
And clap to the beat
Then stop and count your fingers
And then we’ll move our feet
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
I can dance to the rhythm
I can sing to the beat
Let’s learn to count by singing
And count toes on our feet
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Counting up to 10,
It's not that hard, my friend.
So count along with me.
It’s easy as can be.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
How Many Shapes[]
I have a fun game for us to play. It is called "How Many Shapes".
Here's how to play. First listen for the colors and the shapes in the song then count them.
Can you say how many there are before I do? Ha-ha!
Here we go!
How many green triangles do you see?
You better count quickly if you want to beat me.
FOUR- FOUR GREEN TRIANGLES!
How many red circles are sitting in a row?
Count them fast and let me know.
TWO- TWO RED CIRCLES!
How many blue rectangles are standing straight and tall?
Count them and tell me the number that you saw.
SIX- SIX BLUE RECTANGLES!
How many YELLOW circles do you see?
You better count quickly if you want to beat me.
THREE- THREE YELLOW CIRCLES!
How many BROWN rectangles are standing straight and tall?
Count them and tell me the number that you saw.
SEVEN- SEVEN BROWN RECTANGLES!
How many black triangles are sitting in a row?
Count them fast and let me know.
EIGHT- EIGHT BLACK TRIANGLES! ha ha!
How many ORANGE rectangles are standing straight and tall?
Count them and tell me the number that you saw.
NINE- NINE ORANGE RECTANGLES!
How many WHITE triangles are sitting in a row?
Count them fast and let me know.
5- FIVE WHITE TRIANGLES!
How many purple circles do you see?
You better count quickly if you want to beat me.
TEN- TEN PURPLE CIRCLES!
(Trollie Triangle runs away and hides himself to play this last question. This is in the new version. In the old version, the camera zooms to the people playing instruments in the background, then Trollie says his line.)
How many red triangles do you see?
Red triangles...?! Red triangles...?!
(When Trollie calls out, "Red triangles...!? Red triangles...!?", he is trying to call out for some red triangles --trying to get red triangles to appear. Just so the user can count them and say how many there are. But no red triangles appear.)
Hmm...! How can this be!?
I don’t see any red triangles.
That means we have zero red triangles!
(A big number zero --in red-- appears. That is, to show the answer to the shape question. Because there are zero red triangles --or "no red triangles"-- there are zero. In other words, "there are zero --or 'none'".)
(Rollie, Trollie, and Rockford) ZERO RED TRIANGLES!
(A dinosaur --or monster-- must have eaten all the red triangles except for Trollie Triangle. This means, before Trollie got to this verse, the dinosaur/monster had secretly eaten all the red triangles and left. So he left zero red triangles for the shape characters --Rollie Roundman, Trollie Triangle, and Rockford Rectangle-- and the viewer to count. After the song finishes, Trollie appears again.)
Zowie, ha-ha! You have not only learned some really neat colors and shapes. But you can even count to 10. Let's learn more shapes.
(Rollie, Trollie, and Rockford do not do futher investiation about the dinosaur/monster who has eaten the red triangles from the game. And the dinosaur/monster --who ate up all the red triangles-- he remains unnoticed. But the next song appears and they proceed to move on. That is, to learn more shapes. That is, after Trollie says --to the viewers-- "Here are some more shapes".)
So Many Shapes[]
There are so many shapes
It’s plain to see
Woo
If you want to learn some more
Then sing with me
Yeah
Look at the orange shape
A square is a special rectangle, yes, it’s true
All four sides are the same length, now we’ve learned something new
Look at the blue shape
A diamond that has four sides, but that’s not the only key
It’s not a square or a rectangle, it’s something else, you see
Look at the brown shape
An oval is like a circle that has been squashed down
It can look like an egg if it’s colored white or brown
Look at the red shape
A heart is what you see on a special valentine
And I’ll color one red for you if you’ll promise to be mine
Look at the white shape
Stars have five points on the flag of the USA
I know you can find some more, almost any day
Yeah
So Many Colors[]
I am impressed, you have learned about some unusual shapes. Now let's learn some more colors!
There are so many colors,
In the world to see.
Let’s learn a few more color names.
Just you and me.
Gray as an elephant and pink as cotton candy.
I’m learning my colors and I think it’s pretty dandy.
Violet’s the same as purple.
Yes, I know that it is true.
And the color of turquoise is between green and blue.
Peach is a color between orange and pink.
Just use a peach crayon and tell me what you think.
(Rollie) I think I would like a peach snow cone! (Slurping)
Maroon is a color that’s deep brownish red.
It looks just like a color,
A king might wear upon his head.
Yes, there are so many colors,
In the world to see.
We learned a few more color names.
Just you and me.
The Ellipse[]
Hey everyone, let's learn about other shapes!
Alright!
Oh Goody!
Alright!
The purple shape's called an ellipse, when you have more than 1 ellipse you have some ellipses!
The green and orange shapes underneath the purple ellipse are also ellipses!
Remember when we learned about the oval shape?
Well, an oval is sometimes called an ellipse.
An oval is an ellipse
When both ends are alike
An ellipse is a special oval
It’s not like a wheel on a bike
Unless your bike's wheel is really broken.
A bicycle tire is shaped like a circle.
Ha-ha!
I guess you can say an ellipse is like a squished circle.
With both ends the same.
Remember the shape you see on an egg is an oval. But it is not an ellipse. Because the 2 ends are different.
Can you find other ellipse shapes around you?
Ha ha ha! I know you can.
Diamonds and Squares[]
Look at the blue shape. Remember, that shape is called a diamond.
You can see the diamond shape on some cards and you might see it with other shapes to make the patterns in a quilt ha ha ha!
Pardon why, Trollie, but what color are the diamonds?
They're turquoise. Rockford my, man cool blue-green.
But Trollie my good triangle, what about those pink shapes?
That squares been old man!
The pink shapes are squares.
A square is different from a diamond, even when it is turned on it's side.
Oh, I see, so, the red shape is a diamond.
Right, and the yellow shape is a square, turn halfway on it's side.
Yeah, ha ha ha!
4 Cool Shapes[]
What is that funny looking green shape?
That shape is called a trapezoid, it has 4 sides like a square and a diamond. But it is very different from a square or a diamond --or even a rectangle.
Square, rectangle, diamond, trapezoid,
All these shapes have 4 sides.
Square, rectangle, diamond, trapezoid,
4 cool shapes with 4 cool sides!
Oh, I see a trapezoid is a shape with a long side and a short side across from each other. It is sort of like a triangle. But with the top cut off!
Ouch! Ha ha! That could hurt.
Don't worry, Trollie. We never do that to you. (Rollie laughing)
What are Polygons?[]
(Rollie) Wow, look at all the unusual shapes, and each shapes has a different color!
(Rockford) Indeed and each shape has many sides to count. Oh.
(Rollie) Point to the PINK shape.
(Rockford) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5!
(Trollie) A shape with 5 sides is called a pentagon.
(Rollie and Rockford) Pentagon!
(Rollie) Point to the GRAY shape.
(Rockford) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6!
(Trollie) A shape with 6 sides is called a hexagon.
(Rollie and Rockford) Hexagon!
(Rollie) Point to the TURQUOISE shape.
(Rockford) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7!
(Trollie) A shape with 7 sides is called a heptagon heh heh!
(Rollie and Rockford) Heptagon!
(Rollie Roundman) Point to the MAROON shape.
(Rockford Rectangle) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8!
(Trollie) A shape with 8 sides is called an octagon.
(Rollie and Rockford) Octagon!
(Rollie Roundman) Point to the PEACH shape.
(Rockford Rectangle) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9!
(Trollie) A shape with 9 sides is called a nonagon!
(Rollie and Rockford) Nonagon!
(Rollie Roundman) Point to the VIOLET shape.
(Rockford Rectangle) Let's count the sides.
(Rollie and Rockford) 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!
(Trollie) A shape with 10 sides is called a decagon.
(Rollie and Rockford) Decagon!
Polygon Song[]
Wow! That was fun!
But could we sing a song to help us remember all the new shapes?
Yes, Trollie.
Could we?
No sweat, let's have a little island music.
Ah, ha ha ha ha! That's the way! Yeah!
5 sides, pentagon
6 sides, hexagon
7 sides, heptagon
8 sides, octagon
9 sides, nonagon
10 sides, decagon
Ooh, we challenge man, let's do it again, ha ha ha ha ha!
5 sides pentagon
6 sides, hexagon
7 sides, heptagon
8 sides, octagon
9 sides, nonagon
10 sides, decagon
Let’s Count to 20[]
Let’s count to 20.
You know that’s plenty.
In fact, it’s many when you count to 20.
If you talk about money,
You use more than one penny,
When you count to 20.
(Counting first starts slowly.)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20!
Excellent! Let's count again. But this time a little faster.
(Repeat counting; 2nd time at normal/medium speed but not fast)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20!
(Rockford) Faster, faster!
(Rollie and Trollie) But, Rockford, our tongues are tired!
(Rockford) Oh come now! You can do it! Oh, but pump up the beat!
(Repeat counting; fast)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20!
(Rockford) Oh, faster!
(Repeat counting; double faster)
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20!
Fun Time Quiz[]
See the circles? Let's count them with Rockford!
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
What color are those circles? That's right. They're turquoise!
There are 10 turquoise circles.
Let's look at the orange shapes.
What shape are they?
Hmm, let's see. A squished circle shape might be an ellipse...! BUT...! But they have to be ovals. Because they aren't the same on both ends.
How many ovals are there?
1 2 3 4
Ah, 4 orange ovals.
Let's look at the brown shapes. What do you call that shape?
They look like ovals.
I beg you're pardon. I believe they are ellipses.
Cool down, you are both right!
Remember an ellipse is a special kind of oval, that is the same on both ends.
That's right.
Now we remember.
How many ellipses --or ovals-- are there?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
Far out! 15 brown ellipses!
How totally elliptical?
Wow! This is really fun, let's do some more. Let's count the triangles! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 But what colors are those triangles? I know they're maroon! I see 17 maroon triangles hoo hoo!
Do you remember what the purple shapes you called?
I believe we count the sides on 1 of these shapes, don't we?
Sounds cool to me.
Oh, splendid let us proceed.
1 2 3 4 5
There are 5 sides so they must be pentagons. Alright, you got it.
Now lets count the pentagons to see how many we have?
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Neat, we have 8 purple pentagons, each 1 has 5 sides remember sometimes are color purple is called violet!
Next let's look at the green shapes.
Oh what shape are they?
This is a tough 1 but I think they are those tricky trapezoids! That's right, they are trapezoids! But how many trapezoids are there? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Yes there are 12 green trapezoids.
Stay cool people, ha ha ha ha! We're just gettin' started! Let's count the rectangles. But of course. 1 2 3 4 5 And what color are those rectangles? They're gray like an elephant! [Elephant Trumpets] Therefore we have 5 gray rectangles!
I say! What do you call those blue figures? Remember man you need to count the sides on 1 shape. Why that's wonderful, let's count them. 1 2 3 4 5 6 6 sides on each shape. That means they must be hexagons, right, Trollie! That's right hexagons. But how many blue hexagons are there? There are so many of them, let's see if we can count them all. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18. There are 18 blue hexagons.
Ooh, look at the peach shapes! Oh, dear they're turned all different directions! Yeah, man but no matter how you look at them those shapes are squares! Let's find out. How many peach squares there are? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

I see 3 shapes. What are they called?
Those shapes are called hearts.
Yeah, but does anyone remember what they're color is?
I think it must be pink. COOL! I made a rhyme!
That's right 3 pink hearts!
Ooh, look at those black shapes!
How many are there?
Too many!
Don't be silly my man, we can count them.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
There are 13 black shapes.
They are sort of like squares. But they are longer and skinnier.
That's right, they're not squares. They're diamonds. There are 13 black diamonds. ha ha ha ha!
There's 1 big red shape! What is it?
Oh, I know, let's count the sides.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
That's right. But only an octagon has 8 sides. There is 1 red octagon.
Hey, it looks like a stop sign. So it means that we had better stop.
(The word "STOP" appears in white in the red octagon. So now it is a real stop sign. Then the shape characters --Rollie Roundman, Trollie Triangle, and Rockford Rectange-- stop playing --since the red octagon looks like a stop sign. And indeed, a stop sign is an octagon. In summary, "An octagon is a shape with 8 sides, the octagon is red, and a stop sign --in reality-- is an octagon". It is time to stop playing, by that saying of Rollie. Rollie, he says, "It is like a stop sign. So I guess we better stop". When they stop playing and put away their activities --or in this case their "shape activities"-- they return to the main auditorium. And Rollie Roundman waves goodbye.)
Goodbye, everybody!
(After Rollie says goodbye, this is followed by Trollie and Rockford who both also say goodbye. And the program ends and fades to black. Rollie, Trollie, and Rockford --offscreen-- go home.)
Colors, Colors, All Around (Reprise)[]
Colors, colors, all around,
Oh, so many to be found.
Colors, colors everywhere,
For the whole wide world to share.
(This song is the same as the first song "Colors Colors All Around". However, only the first verse is sung. This song on the audio cassette is on Side B. The instrumental version however is on Side A --the last song on Side A. This song is the last one on Side B. On the VHS video, this song heard in the end credits followed with the song "Colors, Colors, All Around-Instrumental". It is also heard in the 2006 DVD version too. However, this and the instrumental version of the title's first song was removed in the 2011 DVD --the new version.)

Colors, Colors, All Around (Instrumental Explanation)[]
ROLLIE ROUNDMAN: That was great! You are so smart. And you've learned so fast. Do you remember the first song we sang together? "Colors Colors All Around".
Well, I am going to give you the music without the words. That way, you can sing it by yourself or maybe with some friends. Here it is.
Colors, Colors, All Around (Instrumental)[]
(This is heard in the end credits of the VHS video version, at the end of the Side A on the audio cassette but only in the former audio version, and in the 2006 DVD version.)
