door step! does this. [has red metal horseshoe magnet in her hand] oh lemme [let me] see xxx. [takes magnet from Chi's hand] %int: whispered willn't move it [horseshoe magnet] that one [silver man]. yeah. [holds the magnet toward the stack of silver men] this is the negative. [holds up horseshoe magnet] the end side is the one that makes things go away. see look. [holds magnet so that ends of magnet face toward a pile of other magnets on the table] look honey! [tries to make horseshoe magnet repel other magnets] not that one [red magnet ball]. [tries to push red ball away, but it sticks to magnet] this one [silver ball]. [moves silver ball toward horseshoe magnet; it also sticks] hm? I thought one made it [horsehoe magnet?] go away. [tries several other magnets; they all stick] no? I guess I'm wrong. south makes it [referent unclear] go away [repel]. sometimes. huh? nope. [tries several other magnets]
steppin' on guys heads! look. [lifts horseshoe magnet with white ball stuck to it into the air] %int: whispered [laughs]. %int: whispered hey! [moves magnet and ball over Chi's construction of silver men] quit messin' up my dudes! nope! look. [holds up horseshoe magnet with several other balls and a silver stick stuck to it] wait a minute. what's the matter with this turtle? [holds up plastic turtle] I'm coming to get you! [uses turtle to knock over silver men on black base] %int: as if the voice of a magnet [laughs]. it's a snake! [referring to chain of magnet balls that Mot is dragging across the table; they are stuck to the horseshoe magnet] it's [string of balls] a caterpillar! The Very Hungry Caterpillar! first... there he is. look! first... hey! [pokes snake with a silver stick] first he ate...
first he ate a log. [pokes snake again; silver stick gets stuck to end of the construction and dragged away from Chi] hey! [laughs]. it's a caterpillar... 'oop! [drags construction past black base; it breaks apart and the balls stick to the base] [laughs]. you broke the caterpillar! %int: sing-song pull yourself together. no [laughs]. hey. [joyful sounds]! takin' a ride! cool! look at this mom! [Chi has stuck several balls to the yellow wand and is holding it upside down above the black base; the balls are sticking to the wand] mom look at this [construction of wand and balls]. awesome. uh! ah! likes that side. [one ball has moved to other side of wand] what? [laughs]. everything's [all magnets on table] goin' into this big magnet [black base]. [laughs]. where's the caterpillar guy? right here [bottom of black base].
[holds black base up; ball magnets are suspended in a single line from its bottom] oh. they're [balls] hangin' off the bottom. there's two guys under there [black base] too. oh cool! [laughs]. it's under here. there it is. no no never xxx that again! [laughs]! oh cool! look it. [holds up two balls that are stuck together] yep. here's the other one. [holds up horseshoe magnet with a red ball and other magnets stuck to it] [humming]. oh cool. googley eyes! [waves yellow wand which has two balls, or eyes, stuck to it] [laughs]. picking up the arrow. [uses yellow wand to pick up blue plastic arrow magnet] that way! [turns arrow on yellow wand] which way did he go? he went thata way. [points yellow wand with blue arrow sticking off the end of it] [laughs]. he went that way.
%int: whispered whee! watch this. wait. can we stand these [washers] like we do the people? yeah. [moves wand over stack of washers Mot is building] hey! [laughs]. then you can use some people. I'm gonna make people standin' up on this one [yellow wand]. whee! yeah... there you go! oh! cool! look at this thing I made. [Chi's construction is out of camera range] ugh! xxx you make me fall. %int: high pitched hey! whee! [laughs]! wow. here's where I moved it to. the strongest man in the whole wide world. [Chi has balanced two men on each hand of the fifth silver man who is on the yellow wand] whoa! he [bottom silver man] fell!
[laughs]. oh. now it's my turn to play with this [black base]. okay. googley eyes again! [looks at Mot's construction of two silver balls on the yellow wand] oh this is a dangerous stunt. this is one of the dangerous stunts in the whole wide world. [Chi has a silver man lying flat balanced on the hands of two silver men who are standing on the base; she is standing another two men on top of the flat one and then adding washers to the top.] one of these [washer]. [laughs]. [singing]. yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. [places a silver ball on top of the washers] [singing]. ah! it [one washer] fell! again this is the most dangerous stunt. static cling. [MOT has placed two colored paper clips on the washers at the top of the construction] [coughs]. it'll stop xxx. %int: singing [vocalization]. oh! [knocks over some of the construction by accident] sorry. what xxx? knock o'er my guys. gimme [give me].
[grabs yellow wand] there! [pushes yellow wand toward Chi] [waves yellow wand over construction; a silver stick that points straight up from the top of the construction waves as the wand passes over it] hey that's neat. hey! let go! [Chi seems to be addressing the yellow wand to let go of the silver stick] that's funny... [the silver stick is stuck to the yellow wand; the two silver balls have fallen from the top of the construction] I'm gonna make a face again. 'oops. [knocks over part of the construction] did you knock over a guy? yeah... I'll fix 'em. [attempts to restack the men on the black base] helps [? have] to get the nose in the right spot. [places silver stick on yellow wand underneath two washers, or eyes] there we go. eyes down a little more... [moves washers down on wand] there. and the mouth... should be these [red magnet balls]. shall be these. whoop! [magnet ball moves on yellow wand and knocks over the silver stick nose] there's his nose [magnet ball]. [laughs]!
there's his nose [magnet ball] now. uh what shall be his mouth? there's his ears [two other magnet balls]! the mouth... [reaches over and places horseshoe magnet on yellow wand below the ball nose] this. okay. there's my human! [holds up wand so that face is toward the camera; horseshoe magnet falls off] whoops. my mouth... that's great. [laughs]. I love that. on that note I think we can end. = = = childes/CHILDES_NA/HSLLD/HV7/ET/geoet7.cha = = = [Home Visit 7] now the money in there is on purpose? [laughs]. [laughs]. [laughs]. you can't keep the money. [laughs]. [talks more about the money] oh wow. what? [$=3 EXP and EX2 whisper to one another; at points their conversation overpowers Mot and Chi's] that's [black base] a strong magnet. very strong.
[laughs]. don't hurt yourself. does that [plastic turtle] open? the magnet's inside here [black base]. watch. [puts black base down on table] do you think... is the magnet inserted in here [black base]? how can they tell if it's [black base?] um... [places nickel on black base] see how it [nickel] moves around? watch. [picks up black base and shakes it; causing nickel to slide back and forth across its surface] right. how can you test it [magnet in black base?]? like maybe put it [nickel] here... [points to a corner of the black base] versus over here 'cause... wait. [points to opposite corner of black base] we just put the magnet on this side? to see if there's a difference. [puts nickel down on base; tilts base to one side; nickel slides across it and falls off] nope. does the coin... yeah. the coin's not staying with it. try that on the other side of the coin. [picks up black base and turns it over] try this one.
[puts nickel on black base] will the coin stay? [the coin falls off the black base] nope. let's try one that we know works. [clears off silver circle and moves it across table; picks up yellow wand and begins to pull magnets off it] this. [tilts black base back and forth; there is a nut on it that the Chi has placed there] why don't you make one of your creations? xxx awesome configurations that you make. oh yeah. xxx terrific. here's a stick. [picks up silver stick and hands it to Chi] whoa [laughs]! wow! [waves yellow wand over black base] look at that [yellow wand over the base]! oh Chi. feel that. [hands yellow wand to Chi] what's happen' there? whaddya think 's goin' on? [waves yellow wand over black base; brings it close and wand sticks to base] whoa! [laughs]. why did it do that? 'cause the magnet's on this side. [indicates one side of the base with the wand] well the magnet's on both sides.
[moves the yellow wand to the other side of the black base; it sticks] but what you s... remember what you learned about um... what was it in the book we read about magnets and electromagnetic energy? d' ya remember what it said about um positive and negative connections? do you remember what that said? no. [continues to stick wand to black base and pull it off] [strange vocalization]. [grabs Chi's head and moves it up and down with hands] do you remember what that said? hello! [taps Chi on head] yeah. wha' did it say? what? 'member what we read? [laughs]. [laughs]. I didn't think you were um [? on]... um remember what we read in your book for um the electromagnetic energy? the light and electricity and stuff? about the positive and negative whatever waves? [vocalization]. how it caused... you know. some attract and some repel? do you remember that? yes. positive and negative energy?
yeah. so what do you think 's goin' on here? [holds up yellow wand and points it toward the black base] 'cause these are magnets just like what we read about. [indicates the other objects on the table with the yellow wand] I know. do you remember what it said about positives and negatives? hm? uh yeah. [puts silver circle on black base; places two silver men in standing positions on silver circle] wha' did it say? 'cause that'll help explain why on this side what is it doin'? [taps the top of the black base with the yellow wand] compared to this side? [taps the side of the black base with the yellow wand] 'kay [? wait]. hm? hm. it's makin' it um... [places another silver man on the black base] um. I don't know. [places a fourth silver man on the black base] wait a minute. you know what? I asked you to make one of these neat figures. [reaches over and pulls black base away from Chi toward her] I really want you to. but I just want you to figure this out for a minute first. okay?
can you do that? just for a minute? and then you can do that? wait a sec'. [attempts to finish arranging silver men on black base] I just want you to answer me this. 'cause that'll help you figure a lot. [moves yellow wand toward black base] why is it that this one pushes away from here [the top of the black base] and that it's [the yellow wand] attracting there [side of the black base]. [points to the top and side of the black base with the yellow wand as she refers to them in her speech] 'cause this is a positive... [taps top of black base] this one's negative. [taps yellow wand] that part's negative. [taps yellow wand] and this one's negative. [taps side of black base] and that one's negative. [taps yellow wand] what's this called when they push away? [moves yellow wand over top of black base] um negative. [takes yellow wand out of Mot's hands] are they attractive or repeling? repeling. what does that mean? that... it bounces off right? [moves hands toward one another and then away before they touch]
it pushes away? that one's nega'... [uses yellow wand to indicate black base] that that one's negative. this one's positive. [holds up yellow wand; moves it toward top of black base until the two stick together] [laughs]. [laughs]. [laughs]. so what happens when you're goin' like that? [moves yellow wand from the top of the black base to the side of it] what's that connection? when there's [? this]... positive and positive. come together. no. that's when they attract right? yeah. right. and I forget... was it negatives? positives? negative and... I forget what it was. positives. this one's positive. [holds yellow wand above black base] but one connection of 'em attract. [holds hand out toward base] and one combination of 'em repel right?
[laughs]. cool. [moves yellow wand toward side of black base; black base slides across the table away from the wand] you can actually... do you think you could move like move a car that way? if you put that [yellow wand?] in the engine... and you put it on wheels? and made it move. look. [grabs Chi's hand on wand and moves wand over the top of the base] that's not the one! you think you could though? with that kind of energy? [resumes action of using yellow wand to push base across the table] see see how you make it move? without even touchin' it? wouldn't that be neat if you could like power a car that way? and you wouldn't need any gas? how do you think you could do that xxx? [moves yellow wand to top of black base and picks it up] Chi imagine that you had the wheels right? [pulls black base off of yellow wand and attempts to put a washer on the side of it] put the wheels on the side. [takes black base from Mot's hands] imagine you could glue them on and they would turn. right? do you think you could make it [black base] roll? with this [yellow just this magnetic energy? do you think? maybe.
[is attempting to stick washers to side of black base] I think that's kinda [kind of] neat. do you? well I forget what combinations of positive and negatives it is but we could look that up. hm. why don't you make a platform for your uh stage? [picks up silver circle] now do this. 'cause you make these really awesome designs. [puts silver circle on black base] [picks up several pieces and moves them towards the base] [strange vocalization]. [waves hands] oh I know. I'm just... you have these [magnet balls] at home right? these things [magnet balls]? yeah. well actually! wow. you think you could um... [picks up several nuts] ugh. you could make it a wheel with it? I don't wanna do it like that. [shakes head] look. 'oop! [vocalization]. whoop.
whoops. [places a small construction of nuts and magnet balls on the black base] [laughs]. wow! is that [Chi's construction] repeling? I think that we needta get some more make them... these guys [silver men]. hm. you know how like the thing [yellow wand?] was pushing like that? [shakes hand over black base] if you can make one of the guys kinda [kind of] standin' up somehow? [holds up a silver man] [laughs]. stand up? like yeah. like you know like with that repeling? how it went xxx [vocalization] like that? [picks up yellow wand and holds it near black platform] if you could keep it [silver man] suspended. above something. [points to yellow wand] like being pulled with the magnetic energy this way. [grabs silver man and attempts to attach it to the under side of the yellow wand above the black base] right? watch. it could stand up like that. [takes silver man from Mot and puts it on the black base] but to have that... [pulls silver man off black base] no.
to have that yank? you know that pull? see that pull? [holds yellow wand at a slight distance from the silver man that Chi is holding] but not have it [yellow wand] actually touch. just... see that? [yellow wand has just pulled silver man toward it] how it's not touching but if you can feel the pull down? [takes yellow wand from Mot; holds it over silver man on black base; the whole base sticks to the yellow wand] 'oops. what's the difference in this [yellow wand]? does that [other side of wand] do the same thing? [turns yellow wand over and tries to move silver man with it] now try the uh difference on here. [points to black base] see both sides. if it's [yellow wand] the same on both sides. [tries both sides of yellow wand on black base] it's not the same. it's not? is one repeling and one attracting? yeah. what about the sides? [points to the sides of the yellow wand] sides are stayin'... [moves one side of the yellow wand down toward the black base; it pushes away; then flips the wand and tries the other side; it sticks and pulls the silver man who had been on the black base to it] [laughs]. they're different too. hm.
try and make one of your figures. you know? some awesome things. I keep interrupting you. sorry. whoops. [a silver stick, or something similar to that, falls onto the floor; Chi uses yellow wand to pick it up] [laughs]. [laughs]. have it? [laughs]. [laughs]. he's smart. [laughs]. okay make something neat. see? here's what I did. I know you did. make one of your little things. one of your shapes. xxx the coins. xxx none of 'em. none of the coins are magnetic? nope. how do you know? you know they're made out of different metals. don't you? right? made out of different metals... so that and um.
[clears yellow wand of all the magnets that have become stuck to it] so and they willn't stick. none of 'em will? nope. watch. [takes yellow wand and moves it over a coin on the table] no. oh! what's a penny made out of? steel? no. I don't know. copper. what about if you turn these [coins] over? do you think it makes a difference? no it doesn't. [places coins on black base; then tips base so they all slide off] how 'bout on the back side of the magnet? [picks up black base and holds it above coins; coins don't move, but the large silver circle slides across the table and sticks to it] whoa! [laughs]. [laughs]. okay. we'll stop. you can make your design now. imagine how tall you can um make it. I can make it. there you go. I'll give you the pieces and you can do it okay? mom give me pieces.
[begins to stack silver men one on top of another on the platform] whoa. are there any others [silver men]? now imagine if they [silver men] weren't magnetic. they [silver men] wouldn't stay up too well would they? I know. what are you lookin' for? I'm lookin' for another person. another person? yeah. oh wait. I got an idea. xxx stay up. okay. that's great. wow. well you know what? it's been about ten minutes. = = = childes/CHILDES_NA/HSLLD/HV7/ET/joyet7.cha = = = [Home Visit 7] want you guys to play with that together for about ten minutes. so... okay. [laughs]. she doesn't wanna. [stacks silver men on the black base so that one man is holding a man in each hand and a fourth is on top of those two] [talking in background] mommy look! [refering to construction of silver men]
Ma look at! [picks up blue plastic teddy bear] well this [plastic teddy bear?] is xxx. [attempts to put plastic teddy bear on top of silver men construction; the bear and the top silver man both fall] hey! [laughs]. [laughs]. [EXP talks to EX2 about the rest of the activities] [vocalization]. [picks up horseshoe magnet and holds it over silver men] [moves yellow wand over silver men; they move] [laughs]. [clears silver men off black base] these [nuts] are new. [pulls nuts off the black base] I don't remember these [nuts] from last time. hm. [stands two silver men next to one another on the black base] [stacks nuts on black base behind silver men] [vocalizaton]. [puts another silver men on top of the first two] whoa. [third silver man doesn't stay and Chi moves it next to the others on the black base] is there one more little dude? [places two silver men on top of the three that are already standing on the black base] I don't think so. what's this [plastic turtle] doin' in here [laughs]? does it even... [picks up plastic turtle and tries unsuccessfully to stick it to the side of the black base] no.
does this [plastic teddy bear]? I don't know what... [tries to stick plastic teddy bear on black base] that [plastic teddy bear] doesn't. oh. [laughs]. some of these things don't even... here look! if you stick this [silver stick] through there... [picks up a silver stick and puts it into the bottom of the plastic teddy bear; attempts to stand silver stick up on base] yeah? oh. I see. stick. %add: silver stick with plastic bear on top yeah but we can't do that with a stick. [picks up plastic turtle in one hand and reaches for a silver stick] [successfully gets silver stick with teddy bear on it to stand up on the black base] look at the bear [plastic teddy bear]! where did it [plastic bear] go? [silver stick with bear has fallen over] no it [silver stick and bear] fell... [laughs]. [laughs]. [puts silver stick with turtle stuck on the end of it onto the black base] ah. put this [blue arrow magnet]... [picks up blue arrow magnet and attempts to put it on black base so that the arrow is pointing straight up] up. %add: $=2 blue arrow magnet
stick up. oh my. stop [laughs]. stick up! no wait a minute. [reaches for blue arrown] turn it around this way. [turns arrow around] okay. turtle. [vocalization]. [arrow stays in place] too bad we didn't have a sign turtle crossing. [laughs]. [laughs]. [picks up a silver stick and holds it over the turtle on the black base] whoa! it [silver stick] fell. it'll stay up there. will it still stick? [picks up silver stick and places it underneath the turtle] oh. [laughs]. Ma if you go like this... [picks up silver stick again and uses it to push a magnet ball that is stuck to the black base] you can push this [plastic magnet ball] you can push this around the jar. oh yeah. move this guy [referent unclear]. move this [blue arrow magnet?]. alright.
make it [plastic magnet ball] go the other way. I can't! [attempts to move magnet ball the other way with the silver stick] twelve thirty today. turn the stick around. [takes silver stick from Chi's hand and tries to move the magnet ball] oh yeah. oh no. I'll do another one [magnet ball?]. you get one stick. okay. [holds a silver stick] [picks up a silver stick] yeah yeah. 'kay. [uses the silver stick to push a magnet ball around the silver circle on the black base] [vocalization]. [uses another silver stick to push a different magnet ball around the silver circle toward the one that Mot is pushing] [vocalization]. doesn't [magnet ball] wanna go over there. the other way... stick it [magnet ball] xxx mommy. then go like this mommy. [pushes magnet ball with silver stick] I am but it [magnet ball] doesn't wanna move over the side. but these guys [other magnet balls on table] down here do. then get those guys [other magnet balls] down there. what about this one [silver magnet ball]? [picks up silver magnet ball from the table and puts it onto the silver circle] [vocalization].
oh I'm stuck! hey you! oh. pick one [referent unclear]. just like you picked xxx. like this one [referent unclear]! feels like it's xxx. like a xxx. oh! [picks up black base and looks underneath it] ah! look. there's stuff stuck to the bottom. [pulls objects from the bottom of black base] I know. [puts black base back down on the table] oh what's this [blue and white checked magnet]? [sticks checked magnet to black base] oh cool. see I like that. [the child who has been babbling in the background is now closer to the tape recorder and is asking for juice] want some more? %add: child asking for juice here maybe the white ball one. [picks up white magnet ball from table and moves it to black base] wait William. mom look the white balls come up here. [moves white magnet ball around silver circle with silver stick] [the young child is close to the microphone and is yelling for juice] come here.
hey hey hey. hey don't put it [white magnet ball] into... you knocked my ball off the top! aw. you knocked... [laughs]. [laughs]. [laughs]. take this [silver circle] off of it. [takes silver circle off black base; then takes everything else off black base] [laughs]. mommy mommy! [vocalization]. where's the other orange one [magnet ball]? [there are sever magnet balls stuck together on the black base] oh here it [magnet ball] is. %int: mumbled hey you knocked one [magnet ball] off! [vocalization]. look! [uses silver stick to lift silver magnet ball off black base; the ball hangs from the stick for a moment before dropping back onto the table] oh that was cool mom. watch. [repeats earlier action] I mean watch. [reaches toward silver ball with yellow wand] stop! [laughs]. [laughs]. [vocalization].
done. aw drop. hm. [repeats action with silver stick and silver ball] [laughs]. teddy bear willn't go on. wait. [picks up two coins and attempts to stick them to the black base] oh cool! look. money don't stick to it [black base]. there was money on there too? yeah. but it [coins] doesn't stick. where's the other dudes? [picks up several silver men from the table] okay. [places several objects on the black base] now take this [yellow wand]... okay? and try to get it [referent unclear]. [waves yellow wand over objects on black base] come on little dudes. [puts yellow wand close to black base; several objects stick to it] xxx stuck. [pulls yellow wand away from black base] yeah. now count how many things you got. uh oh okay. one...
[pulls a silver man from the yellow wand and puts it back on the black base] okay. now it's my turn. [takes yellow wand from Chi and moves it over black base; a number of objects stick to it] aw! five. yeah. [clears objects off yellow wand and puts them back on black base] [takes yellow wand and holds it over black base; only one magnet ball sticks to the wand] [laughs]. come on you stupid. %int: muttered now the dog is after you too. one [? won] again! [pulls magnet ball from wand] [takes yellow wand and moves it over black base; two objects stick to it] here you go. two. two. [laughs]. I got two points all together. [takes yellow wand from Mot and moves it over black base again] aw. [pulls yellow wand away; there is one object stuck to it] what I get that xxx? one. okay. you're winning. how do you do that? [moves yellow wand over black base again]
ah! I see what you do now! ugh. one that one. I see one. that's the one. %int: mumbled [takes yellow wand and moves it over black base] wow. get on here [yellow wand]! [laughs]. [laughs]. oh. [pulls yellow wand away from black base] I got one two three four five six seven! seven! seven. eight nine ten! I got ten. xxx stop counting. no wait nine altogether. these things sticking straight! [puts objects back onto black base] a penny stick and the copper doesn't stick. [moves yellow wand over black base] ha. you're not gonna get a big one. only two mom! [moves wand back to black base] hey you scooped 'em!
[laughs]. nine. ugh. I'm gonna scoop 'em this time. [takes yellow wand and moves it over black base] break the whole thing [pile of objects on base] off. [vocalization]. [pulls wand full of objects from black base] on two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen. %int: whispers the second half of this utterance seventeen. ha. [puts objects back on black base] [takes yellow wand and scrapes it across black base] no no no! [picks up black base; pushes objects off it with yellow wand; they fall on the table and Mot picks them up with the yellow wand] [laughs]. wow! [laughs]. [vocalization]. stop it! you're cheating! stop [laughs]. ah! one two three four five six [laughs]. [laughs]. seven. seven. eight. eight.
nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty. [vocalizaton]. [put objects back onto black base] sha! we'll see. all into a little thin pile. [moves objects on black base into one pile in the center] we'll see how many I can get this time. [holds yellow wand next to black base and uses hand to push objects onto the wand] now you're really cheating. hey. well you cheat! you're definitely... okay. definitely cheating. one two [laughs] three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve thirteen fourteen fifteen sixteen seventeen eighteen nineteen twenty twenty one twenty two twenty three twenty four twenty five twenty six twenty seven. [clears off yellow wand] well I only got twenty seven. let's make a pyramid with everything. alright let's do it. put everything up where it's sposta be. get... ugh. [magnet balls are sliding into the side of the black base] hey. those keep on sticking. shove it. sh shove it [referent unclear] Bubba. [vocalization]. no.
this way. oh. I'm gonna put a ball on each one [nut]. gonna put a ball on it [nut]. wait! this one's [washers] on the side. [places washers on the side of the black base] 'nother one. mhm. and then... put the little dude to make a pyramid with the little dudes. okay. [stands silver men on the silver circle on the black base] oh dude! [puts a silver man upside down on top of two other silver men] look! oh wow! how did you do that? stuck him [silver man] upside down on his [silver man] head. mhm. [vocalization]. there. look mama. [puts another silver man upside down on top of other silver men] okay. now it's raining paper clips. [drops paper clips onto black base] [laughs]. [laughs]. then it's raining a teddy bear!
[drops plastic bear onto the black base] [vocalization]. [places silver sticks on top of the silver men; placing the third one caused the men to fall over] ah! what d did you do? [vocalization]. wait. [starts to set silver men back up] it gotta rain paper clips over again. and this one [silver man] hasta go up there. [places a silver man upside down] [laughs]. [laughs]. I'll be the teddy bear. [picks up plastic teddy bear] you be the turtle. the turtle is so weak. alright you be the turtle. I'll be the teddy bear. [picks up the turtle] [vocalization]. this is a character. [strange vocalization]. [laughs]. that's great folks. [tells them they can play for another minute or so] [vocalization]. here's the teddy. [vocalization]. the turtle's not gonna stand.
maybe like that. [tries to place teddy bear on top of silver sticks; it falls] I'm gonna kill it. [vocalization]. know what? it [teddy bear] fell. north and south. [picks up horseshoe magnet] mom why did it [horseshoe magnet] say north and south on it? [EXP and Mot talk about a picture that looks like a roommate] [talks about turning camera off] = = = childes/CHILDES_NA/HSLLD/HV7/ET/conet7.cha = = = [Home Visit 7] what's this? oh those are one of those... um so we brought all these things to play with that we brought with you to play I think at like another visit. oh magnet! ha whatever. so we'd like you guys to play with 'em and talk about 'em and... hey! [seems like Chi is claiming a magnet for himself to play with] and here's all the junk we had. you can open that up. tadah. %int: softly hummed mister turtle. so just like you know... hey there's another one of these though. ten minutes or so.
grab this baby. [talking to herself under her breath] no Chi. this is how they go. this is how they do it Chi on this. here you go. %add: Chi yeah the stationery store near where I work? %add: EXP heh heh. they have um this base with all of those acrobat guys. can I see xxx? that xxx? no xxx work! y you lost all your acrobats. I know. we're losing them. we hafta get more acrobat guys. what are acro... oh those? these guys right here? yeah. here. [videotape starts at this point] [Chi has the large magnetic base, on which is the metal disc; the non-magnetic animals lie near the magnetic base, along with a bolt and a magnetic ball; Chi has a bunch of the magnetic silver men in his left hand] and then those magnetic balls? um I bought them some of those at The Stratus Store? [starts placing silver men on the black base] have you heard of that? no.
uhuh. is it in... it's like The Nature Company at Faneuil hall with all those natural things? [picks up the fallen magnetic silver man and places it on the black base, standing on the head of the first silver man] they have like environmental stuff? mom. what? [places a silver man on the head of another one, so now there are two pairs of the silver men] why willn't it [a magnet] stick? [laughs]. maybe it's [Bro's magnet] just too heavy. that's all. stick it [Bro's magnet] to the bottom. [sings circus music]. [continues to pile silver men on top of each other in two piles] [a silver man falls off one pile] [tries to take the fallen silver man off the black base without disturbing the other pair] that's not a sticky side. %add: BRO dead rat. [the second pair of silver men falls over] okay. [picks up the orange plastic monster] yeah it is [the other side is sticky]. yeah but this one [end of the wand] here must not. [explosion sound]. [sound effect for the monster knocking over the silver men] [make the orange monster walk over to the pair of silver men and knock them over] right there. see?
[makes the monster jump up and down on the fallen silver men four times] oh yeah. okay. [stands the plastic monster upright on the black base, and the attempts to balance a silver man on top of it] so. [unsuccessful, Chi gives up on trying to balance the silver man on the monster and takes both off the black base] where is it [referent unclear]? [picks up the yellow triangle from Bro's side of the table, and presses the monster and the magnet and the triangle together in mid air] where did I just drop a magnet here? [places the yellow triangle aside, puts the monster on the black base on its back, and then places a silver man on the monster's stomach; the silver man slides off and sticks to the black base] okay. so this guy's [silver man] gonna go... [positions the silver man in the center of the black base and tries to balance the plastic monster on top of it] [chuckles]. where did this [plastic tray] come from? [picks up a plastic tray] oh she had... them was in here? yeah they were in there. [tries to balance the plastic monster on top of two silver men] you should see their X Men card collection. [the X-Men are characters in a comic strip] real cards. decent cards. [chuckles]. %int: softly comic cards stuff. uhhuh. instead of baseball cards you get those Marvel comics in the cards. oh okay.
huge? [turns the two silver men on the black base upside down] yeah their father is an addict. [laughs]. he's got compulsive behavior and he um takes them on Saturday in the pursuit of comic cards. hey. %int: breathy [Chi discovers an interesting trick with the two silver men the two men are touching at the point of contact with the black base; when Chi pushes one silver man so that it is straight up and down (perpendicular to the base of the magnet), the other silver man becomes suspended at a 45 degree angle this shape; when he pulls the first silver man back, the second one snaps into the straight up and down position, and the first one is suspended at 45 degrees on the opposite side this shape] [experiments with his silver man trick for the next :3 or so] [laughs]. not really 'cause Tony's car's... oh that's [Chi's trick] neat! look at what he's [Chi] doin'. 'cause Tony's car broke down and Tony always wants dad to drive him everywhere. look at that [trick]. how're you doin' that [trick]? the force is just pushing... oh so dad blames it on Tony? no. that he... he doesn't blame it on Tony. it's just that we do go out for fun. yeah I know. just with him but... I know. but I think that you should do other things than just go looking for comic cards. it's not Tony's fault. we do. %int: annoyed we do.
we're gonna go to the movies or bowling today. [places a third silver man on the edge of the silver circle on the black base] today? today. good. [tries to reposition the third silver man] [when Chi repositions the silver man and lets go, the silver man spontaneously jumps off the base, and flips over so that the silver man is now standing on its head] oh! oh. %int: under his breath [pushes the silver man down parallel to the base again, to see if it will flip over again, which it does] [chuckles]. you wanna try mom? no that's alright. you can play. [pulls the third silver man off the black base] 'oop'. I have all of 'em [nuts, silver sticks, and magnetic shapes] stuck on. okay. [puts the third silver man back on the black base with only one of its arms touching the base] that's true. %add: BRO well there's some stuff that's stuck to the bottom of uh the base there. [earlier, when Chi lifted up the black base, a nut and red ball stuck to the bottom of it] [removes the nut and the red magnetic ball from the base and places them in front of Bro] yeah. think you got 'em. stick that [Chi's black base] to that [Bro's yellow wand]. [brings the black base over in front of Bro close to the yellow wand that Bro is playing with] hold on to...
[as Chi holds the black base in the air, BRO sticks the end of the yellow wand to the bottom of the black base] [takes the black base away from Bro's wand and puts it back down on the table] no stick it [yellow wand] to the front [top of black base]. [brings the yellow wand down and touches it to the top of the black base] no. no no no. no. [puts his hand on the yellow wand to remove it from the black base] let's make somethin'. oh yeah. [pulls the yellow wand off of the black base] [holds the black base down as Bro pulls the yellow wand off of it] aw. do you do other twins? %add: EXP [MOT and EXP have a conversation for :45 about whether there are other twins in the study, and how many people are in the study] [pulls most of the objects off of the black base, leaving just the silver mans] okay. [pulls the silver mans off the black base; then places two nuts on opposite edges of the top of the black base] my friend was born in eighty three. [EXP has just explained when the kids in the study were born] [continues to place other objects, one at a time, on the black base] [aft at this point the videotape skips 131 of the interaction; the following section is from audio tape only] 'cause they move too far away. [EXP has been talking about why people drop out of the study] [hums]. look it. can I see one of those guys? no I wanna make something. so what time is your father coming for you [Chi and Bro] 'cause I wanted to go to the Audubon and see the masks.
one. I don't wanna to go the Audubon. you can. hm. I hate the Audubon. [sighs]. plus I don't wanna see my mask. the Audubon... where's the Audubon? the one in... Natick as a um Audubon society in a xxx place. oh. what're you [INV] doing? in art or something the fourth graders made masks? puttin' film in it? uhhuh. uh I think they're animal masks? no they aren't! [the two boys are very emphatic during the whole conversation about the masks] they're just any kind of mask! you keep on saying animals! they're any kind of mask. you're like they're Indian maskses [masks]. masks. masks out of leather pi patches? yeah. yeah. oh. leather! and they have 'em on display all month at the Audubon.
and feathers! oh. and feathers. and I wanted to go but... I'll go. with you. I don't wanna go to the place. %int: strange singsong voice oh that you guys uh [? have] did? we why is he [boys' father] coming at one? %int: annoyed he doesn't even check with me. you guys didn't ask me. so? usually we're sposta go with him [their father]. I told you yesterday what our plans for the day were. [videotape continues at this point] [in the intervening time, Chi has built an elaborate construction on the black base; most of the metal pieces and silver men are now on the black base; Chi has arranged many of the pieces so that the nuts and silver mans are standing on washers, which are stacked straight up and down rather than flat] no you didn't. did you? yeah. [places a silver stick on Chi's construction] hey hey okay. [blocks Bro's arm to prevent him from putting the silver stick on the construction] wait after I stick this guy's [silver man] head through here. [carefully puts the head of one of the silver men through a washer on the construction] [a portion of the construction falls over] [tries to right the section of Chi's construction that had fallen over] 'kay. [removes a piece from the edge of the construction]
hm. [succeeds in repairing the fallen part of the construction] okay add all you want there. [removes a red ball that was stuck to the front of the black base] what the heck? [BRO is commenting on a silver stick which stuck to the silver man on the construction] [when Bro pulls on the silver stick, it ends up sticking to the head of the silver man, pointing straight up in the air] [holds the orange plastic monster over the construction] oh you can balance... [pulls the silver stick off the silver man, causing the silver man to fall over again] oh. [laughs]. [begins to repair the fallen pieces on Chi's construction] [places the orange plastic monster in the center of the construction] he stuck to it. [aft Bro returns his attention to his own magnets] there. [laughs]. I like that. that gorilla [orange monster]. I follow the star [purple star]. [touches the purple star to one of the silver men which is standing on top of two upright stacked washers; the purple star makes the construction top heavy, and Chi wobbles it back and forth, trying to balance it] [aft the purple star and the silver man fall over, knocking most of the construction over] whoops. [beings to clear the fallen pieces off the black base] %int: high pitched what? %add: MOT [laughs]. nothing.
just tired. get all of these [metal objects] far away. how come [? far]? this is the monkey. [holds the orange plastic monster over the black base, then accidentally drops him onto the magnet] and he [monster] goes died. [straightens the plastic monster so that it is standing upright in the center of the black base] 'cause this [silver man] is the black magnet dude. [removes the purple star from the black base, and positions some of the other metal object so that they are in front of the monster] he's [one of Bro's objects] carrying it mom. mom he's [Bro's object] carrying it. he [the black magnet dude] go like that. %int: under his breath [moves the silver man and tries to put its arm through one of the metal nuts] yeah? %add: $=2 Bro he [Bro's object] looks strong. go... %int: under his breath [succeeds in getting the silver man's arm threaded through the metal nut] ugh. [using the silver man (the black magnet dude) Chi lifts the nut off the black base and drops it down on the table in front of him] ugh. he's [Bro's object] the Hulk. [collision sound effects]. [takes the lone remaining upright silver man off the construction and moves it in an arc so that it dives head first onto the black base] [Chi makes sound effect of a collision when the silver man hits the black base] he's [Bro's object] the Hulk. %int: laughing who's carrying whom?
%add: BRO he's [Bro's object] carrying that. oh. oh awesome! [puts a silver man in the center of the black base] and then she's stepping on something. [talking about his own magnets] %int: under his breath like a statue. %add: BRO [removes most of the metal objects from the black base, including the silver man he'd placed there a moment before] he is a statue [chuckling]. yeah. %add: $=2 Bro that's... [puts a nut in the center of the black base, placed vertically, on its edge] that's true. %add: BRO okay. [builds a tower of nuts] Bro your neck is all hung over again. [stacks two washers on top of his tower of nuts] I xxx. %int: softly balance it [silver stick] on his head [silver man's head]. [stacks a third washer on top of the tower] oh cool! [stacks a fourth washer on top of the tower] [chuckles]. %int: pleased
circus act. [laughs]. [stacks a fifth nut on top of the tower] [taps Bro on left shoulder] straighten up your shoulders. %int: admonishing no. [tries to stack a sixth washer on top of the tower; when it wobbles he steadies it, but when he lets go the tower falls over, leaving the three nuts and two of the washers] he's like always hunched here. I know. and then he complains. hard habit to break. [removes the two washers from on top of the nuts] die. %int: low pitched voice, Hulk's voice [BRO is engaged in fantasy play with his magnets] [collision sound effect]. [laughs]. [sinister laugh]. [places a fourth nut on top of the three already there] okay [chuckles]. [stacks a washer onto the nuts] ow! %int: $=2 high pitched, speaking for one of the silver men don't hurt me ah. [places a second washer on top of the tower, but when he lets go it falls off] Chi yours is like artwork. [stacks two more washers on top of the tower] hm oh my god. [raises his hand with a silver stick in it as if to put the silver stick on the top washer of Chi's construction]
[brushes away Bro's arm from touching the tower with the silver stick] put that on top. one of these things. I want a man. [picks up one of the silver men] hey. [picks up a washer] don't mess up what he's doin'. %add: $=2 Bro alright? [tries to stick a washer to the second washer in the tower, so that there will be two washers in between the top washer and the bottom washer, forming a diamond] [the top washer and the washer Chi had attempted to place fall off the tower] [picks up another washer and places it next to the second washer (which is now the top washer), making a V or a diamond without a top yet] hm. how many men are there? there's only a few. [tries to place a fourth washer on top of the middle two, but it slips down so that it is in the center of what would be the diamond] yeah. we only have like four or five. [places another washer on top of the middle two, completing the diamond] I should... %int: softly, under her breath gotta [gotta] get some more men. this is how it goes. %int: under his breath [steadies the top washer, which was wobbling] mom they have these things at the xxx store? mom? [picks up a washer and sticks it to the uppermost of the nuts at the base of the tower] no at the stationery store in Woburn center.
they have these kind of things? [slowly spins the whole tower on the base around 18 degrees] they've got those acrobat magnet guys. oh they do? %int: eager [takes a silver stick he'd been holding in his left hand] let's go there. [begins to push the silver stick through the hole in uppermost nut] [chuckles]. [chuckles]. I might get some. [continues to push the silver stick] [the washer that was stuck to the nuts on the base spontaneously jumps off the tower and onto the edge of the black base] oh! oh cool. watch that. [removes the silver stick from the top nut and begins to try to push it through the center of the diamond of washers] [the washer which makes up the top of the diamond tips over and falls onto the silver stick] [laughs]. [fixes the fallen top washer] bleh. [coughs]. [successfully pushes the silver stick through the center of the diamond, although the washer that had fallen earlier to lodge itself to the center of the diamond falls off the tower] [laughs]. you know the magic trick when they have the big box and the guy sticking the swords in? yeah. [removes the fallen washer and places it next to the washer forming the base of the diamond; then picks up a silver man and puts it on the outer edge of the silver stick he'd pushed through the diamond] [as Chi tries to steady the silver man, the extra washer on the diamond (the one that had fallen earlier) falls off again] [steadies the silver man so it does not fall when he lets go; then places a second silver man on the opposite end of the silver stick, as if the two silver men were on a teeter totter with the diamond in the middle] [the construction sways dangerously]
[maneuvers the silver man around to try to steady the construction] [aft the two silver men fall off the silver stick, and the top washer of the diamond falls off] [chuckles]. [sighs]. [picks up a washer to try to replace the top of the diamond] tape run out? yeah I gotta flip it. holding too many gadgets in my hand at this moment. can he [silver man] sit on the pole Chi? [tries to place silver men on end of the silver stick again] [most of Chi's construction falls over] like a teeter-totter? what do you mean? [has removed some of the debris and is placing a silver stick straight up and down on the four nuts which had formed the base of the tower] like less. sit on the pole? [picks up a silver man and places it horizontally on the top of the silver stick] no probably not. [spins the silver stick and the silver man around a few times] mom he's [silver man] sitting on the pole. [looks at Mot and points at his construction] no. I meant between his legs. oh. %int: very softly oh. [takes the silver man off the top of the silver stick and repositions it so that the silver man is vertical and the pole is between its legs] that would hurt. [speaks about Chi's magnets] [laughs].
now try sittin' him on the pole the other way. [with the silver man steady on the top of the silver stick, Chi lets go of it] like a teeter totter. [takes the silver man and the silver stick off the base, the four nuts, and puts the silver stick back on so that it is horizontal, touching the base in the middle] see if he's magnetic like that. [tries to position the silver man on the silver stick] [it may be that Chi is trying to put the silver man in the center, as opposed to on one of the ends, as it would be in a teeter totter] help we're melting. %int: high pitched singsong oh! okay. no. just wondering. he [silver man] doesn't stick that way. that? [the silver man is attached to the end of the silver stick, but on the side of it, as opposed to the silver stick being between the silver man's legs] you show me. [hands the silver stick and silver man to Mot] [takes the pieces from Chi, then puts the silver man and the silver stick together, with no magnet touching either one; they do not stick to one another, and the silver man falls to the table] look at that. [puts the silver man and silver stick together again, and the silver man falls to the table again] he's [silver man] not magnetic like that. so did you... it's something like he's [silver man]... [hands the silver stick back to Chi] [reaches across the table to pick up the fallen silver man and take the silver stick from Mot; then tries to put the silver man and the silver stick together in midair apart from any of the magnets, and the silver man falls, lodging onto the black base] his negatives and his positives aren't right. [laughs]. only because of this [the black base]. [affixes the silver stick horizontally onto the top of the tower]
help me. %int: high pitched it [metal pieces] hasta do that [be connected to the magnetism of the black base]. [pulls his hands back to demonstrate that the silver stick has to be attached] oh. it's [metal pieces] charged to the metal. go ahead. [begins affixing the silver man onto the silver stick] see... he [silver man] still isn't gonna... [sticks and unsticks the silver man to the silver stick] no it [silver man] sticks. not between his [silver man's] legs. [sticks the silver man onto the silver stick such that the silver stick is between the silver man's legs] oh! oh? did it? yeah. oh. that's what I was wonderin'. oh. watch. ready? I'll take it off. [grasps both ends of the silver stick and begins to gently try to pull the silver stick off the tower] [Chi is trying to show that when the silver stick is no longer in contact with the tower and the black base, that the magnetic silver man will then fall off] I'll make one of those [a construction like Chi's]. 'oop'. [the silver man fell off before Chi managed to pull the silver stick off the tower] [pulls the silver stick off the tower]
I'm gonna try it right now. ready? [sets up the silver stick on the tower again, and begins to position the silver man on the silver stick, as it was before] that's be' this base [black base] is probably real strong and it's makin' all the magnets strong. I know. ready? [has trouble getting the silver man to stay on the silver stick again; it falls off several times] help. %int: high pitched [gets the silver man to stay on the silver stick] I can't fit it [referent unclear] through without the magnetic force takin' it. [pulls the silver stick off the tower, causing the silver man to flip up into the air and land on the black base] which one? oh! which one can't work Bro? [begins to rearrange his tower] this. okay. [rearranges his tower so that instead of a base of four nuts stacked four high, there are two towers of two nuts each, side by side, making a square] it willn't slide through. [puts the red magnetic ball in the gap between the two bases] this guy... [picks up a silver man and begins to try to balance him on the red ball] %int: speaks under his breath [tries to steady the silver man on the red ball with his hand] nope. [picks up the orange plastic monster and tries to steady the silver man with that] huh that's like a circus act. [laughs]. [picks up the purple magnetic star and tries to affix that to the base and the silver man so that the construction stays upright]
[the star and the silver man fall over] stay on the star. %int: sing song whoops. [tries to position some of the objects on the construction with both hands] [picks up the green paper clip from off the table] [the purple star is leaning up against the pair of two- nut bases; the red ball is between the two bases; the silver man is not on the construction anymore] [puts the green paper clip on the red magnetic ball and adjusts it] is Ghost Writer on tonight mom? [Ghost Writer is the name of a t.v. show] I don't know. [it seems as though Chi touches the green paper clip with his index finger and wiggles it around] yeah it is. I don't have the t v schedule memorized. it's on... [laughs]. ah! [commenting on something happening with Bro's magnets] [leans a silver stick on top of the red ball and the purple star, such that the silver stick forms a ramp from the construction to the black base] oh wow. %add: BRO [clears throat]. [puts a silver man onto the side of his construction] you know what they wanna stay up for is the new George Carlin show? [the silver man on the construction falls off] no I haven't seen it. we've seen it. [picks up both the silver stick and the fallen silver man; he pulls them upwards so that the silver stick is horizontal rather than leaning like a ramp, and the silver man is on the silver stick] it was the first time it was on was last week? uhhuh.
it's funny. [pulls the silver man up off the silver stick] [MOT, INV, and Bro have a very lengthy discussion about about the George Carlin show, Yorkshire terriers, a past experience Mot and Bro had with a dog, and allergies to dogs] [$=23 Chi does the following actions while Mot, INV, and Bro have this discussion] [puts the silver man back on the silver stick, but when he lets go the silver man falls off and attaches to the side of the black base] [pulls the silver man off the side of the black base; when he does so, two washers also come with it, so that three objects form a line leading from the black base to Chi's hand] [takes the silver man off the two washers, and then pulls the washers back and forth around the construction on top of the black base] [brings the two washers down low and close to the black base, such that the lowermost washer lets go of the top washer and sticks fully face down on the magnet] [straightens the red magnetic ball on top of the two bases] [puts a silver man on top of the red magnetic ball and steadies it with his hand] [lifts up the silver man and with his other hand takes the silver stick off the construction] [replaces the silver stick onto the construction, perpendicular to the position it was in before] [the silver man Chi has been holding sticks to the side of the construction] [gently tries to remove the silver man without pulling down the other parts of the construction] [continues to try to remove the silver man] [the green paper clip falls off the construction, and the whole construction moves over as Chi pulls off the silver man] [makes the plastic turtle walk across the table toward a nut] [stops the turtle in front of the nut and tries to fit the turtle's head through the hole in the nut] [the nut fits onto the turtle's nose] [tries to balance the plastic monster on top of the red magnetic ball on his construction] [lets go of the plastic monster] [the monster falls off the construction and completely off the black base onto the table] 'oop'. [commenting on the monster falling off Chi's construction] [picks up the monster and walks it King Kong style through the construction, knocking the whole thing over] [picks up a nut from the debris of his construction and puts it in the center of the black base] [picks up two more nuts, one with each hand, from the debris of his old construction and places them on top of the nut already in the middle of the black base, a base of three nuts] [puts a washer on top of the base of the tower, then puts a second washer at the same level so that the two washers are parallel side by side] [picks up a third washer and puts it horizontally on top of the other two washers, forming a house type construction] [puts a fourth washer horizontally on top of the other washer, so that there are two washers face down making the top of the house; then picks up a fifth washer, and places it in the same way on top of the two horizontal ones, so that now three washers make the roof of the house]
[picks up the silver stick from out of the debris of the previous construction] [holds the silver stick vertically above the tower, and then lets go of the silver stick, which stays pointing straight up off the tower] look it! [talking about his own magnets] I'm makin' a playground! yeah! is that the slide? yep. [tries to pull a silver stick off the top of his tower without causing the whole tower to fall down] hey he's goin' down head first. [talking about his own magnet play] [succeeds in removing the silver stick, and places it next to the tower, like a ramp leading from the top to the bottom] [laughs]. let's hope it's a soft landing. %add: BRO ah! ah! [removes some nuts from the black base that aren't part of the construction] help! [$=2 talking about his own magnets] oh! uh he crashed. [laughs]. crashed head first. ouch. okay. [removes a silver stick from the rest of the construction; then touches the silver stick to the top of the construction] well you know what we could do now... = = = childes/CHILDES_NA/HSLLD/HV7/ET/roset7.cha = = =
[Home Visit 7] here are some objects. that um like some we asked you to play with... [explains that they are to play together and that the activity will be videotaped] okay. 'kay? what's gonna be? %int: whispered strong magnet. [videotape starts here] [the magnets are on a table; Mot and Chi are next to one another; the black base is empty and the objects are in a pile nearby] [sticks several objects to the black base; picks up the yellow wand and puts it on top of the objects on the base; attempts to pull it off] [moves the yellow wand over the pile of objects on the table; several stick and Chi pulls them off] I like the people. mhm. [holds yellow wand in one hand and sticks silver men to the top and bottom of it] [moves yellow wand over objects on table; tries to pick up silver circle with it] [puts yellow wand down and picks up horseshoe magnet; tries sticking the ends of it to the black base] %int: whispered [puts down horseshoe magnet; sticks washers and magnet balls on black base] [stacks washers on top of one another on the black base; tries to put a fifth washer on the top of the pile and they all fall] [clears throat]. whoop'! almost [laughs]! hm. [stacks washers again; they fall] [holds objects over base and drops them on to it] [clears off black base and drops the silver stick on it several times; places a washer flat on the base and stands a silver stick in the center of it] that works. [stands a second silver stick next to the first and balances a washer and a magnet ball on top of them; tries to put another magnet ball at the base of the construction and they fall]
whoops. [holds a silver stick out with a magnet ball hanging from the end of it; tries to pick up a second magnet ball with the other silver stick] [vocalization]. there go. %int: whispered [picks up yellow wand and sticks the silver circle to it; moves wand around and the silver circle slides] [turns the wand so that the silver circle is on the bottom and sticks the horseshoe magnet to the silver circle] [removes horseshoe magnet and sticks other objects to the silver circle on the bottom of the yellow wand] [removes everything from the yellow wand except for a magnet ball; moves wand around so that the ball slides along it; holds wand and ball over the black base; sticks wand to base and pulls it off again repeatedly] did the ball move if you're not touching it? [reaches over and takes wand from Chi] [clears objects off black base; puts ball on black base] huh? will it make it move? [waves yellow wand over magnet ball on black base] hm. [takes yellow wand from Mot and moves it over the magnet ball on the black base; eventually ball sticks to wand] [vocalization]. [takes ball from wand and puts it back on base; moves wand on base; uses wand to lift black base] [puts wand down; drops silver ball onto black base and holds silver stick over the ball; uses stick to pick up the ball] [puts stick down; clears balls off black base; picks up several silver men and places them on the black base; drops several other objects on to the black base] [clears throat]. okay. well that... that's been about ten minutes. thanks. = = = childes/CHILDES_NA/HSLLD/HV7/ET/bobet7.cha = = = [Home Visit 7] now I have some objects here.
oh! [explains magnet activity and tells them that she is just videotaping hands] oh! this is xxx! [finishes explanation] I have some of these. matter of fact would you like some? so you and your mom can look at those things together. 'kay. copper will not... I wanna say one thing. copper will not stick to a magnet. whoops! here you go. I'll take some of that xxx if you [? to use]... here's what we do xxx. well this looks familiar Chi. [video starts here] [magnets are set up on a table; Mot is seated at table; Chi is off camera; black base is full of objects] these [magnet balls] come from my first magnet set. [my first magnet set could be the name under which the magnets are sold] right? unhunh. see look at! that's what he has. we have some of these [referent unclear] too. oh wow. that's what it comes from. okay. My Very First Magnet Set.
okay. yeah. it's a little kit. and the inside is metal... oh I didn't know that. the inside's metal. and they give you nuts and bolts and the arrows. uhhuh. and this little... these [white and yellow checked triangle] flat magnets. and horseshoes. okay. uh uh uh uh! and one of these. oh wow.

I think it [magnet ball?] went in your shirt. oh there it is. there you go. that's the magnet inside the plastic... don't open it. other children needta use it please. [holds empty black base over objects that are scattered across the table; several nuts and washers stick to the base in a chain; Chi moves them over magnet balls and the balls stick] the balls movin' already. whoa! [attempts to lift black base higher from the table and the objects that have been stuck to it in a chain fall] broke the chain. I like making the chains.

[holds up black base with the stack of four men on it; the chain of balls that is on the table sticks to the bottom of it] 'oops! get it on tape! [attempts to pull balls from the bottom of the base; the silver men fall over] oh! want some help? [reaches over to pull objects from bottom of base] why doncha move these things [magnet balls] away honey? [pulls the magnet balls and other nearby objects on table away from the black base] time out here. look at what happened.

[tries to put a second man on; he does not stack evenly because his feet are closer together than the hands of the man Chi is attempting to put him on] %int: whispered what? [pulls the second man off] it... I'm a smart kid right momma? [turns second man over and stacks him upside down on the first man so their hands are touching; adds a third man so his feet are stacked on the feet of the second man] yes you are smart honey. whoa! [stacks a fourth man with his hands on the third mans hands] wow. yipes. [attempts to stack the fifth man; he falls and knocks the other men over] whoa! oh! the poor guy [silver man] on the top. he [silver man] keeps gettin' dumped huh? yeah.

[pulls the silver men off the black base] watch. [stacks four silver men on top of one another on the base; then turns it over and tries to use the silver men to pick up other objects] I thought this [black base?] was a strong magnet. [picks up magnet balls in other hand and holds black base over them] [clears objects off black base; puts it on the table; sticks yellow wand on top of it] [there are two washers on top of the yellow wand] it [referent unclear] was almost like the negative. you know why that happened? [why the wand stuck to the base ] yeah. why? 'cause it was negative. probably [? no] 'cause the magnet on the bottom [black base] is stronger than the one on the top [yellow wand]. [takes washers off yellow wand; lifts yellow wand and sticks it to the base again; then pulls yellow wand off, turns it over and sticks the other side of it to the black base] I'm gonna fix it [Mot's former construction on yellow wand?] for you.
