Episode 0333


 * Today is Antonio's birthday, and the theme of the show centers around his birthday party -- an old-fashioned traditional Mexican fiesta. Mr. Hooper, Luis, Bob and Maria plan to decorate the yard with flowers, prepare special foods, provide Mexican music and hang a piñata.


 * Mr. Hooper, wearing a circus ringmaster's top hat and cape, tries to balance four cans at a time.


 * Luis, Maria and Susan make tacos for the birthday party.


 * Roosevelt Franklin recites the alphabet.


 * As he decorates the yard for the birthday party with Mr. Hooper and Rafael, Bob sings the Sorting Song.


 * The decorations for the party are complete. People bring platters of food. Bob and Luis sing a Spanish song as everyone gathers in the yard for the birthday party.


 * Kermit gets to be all over the place. There's a frog in a nest and in a box. There's a frog on the counter and on the trash can. There's a frog under the table and under the newspaper.


 * Antonio arrives, and the Mexican fiesta begins. Everyone wishes him a happy birthday, in English and Spanish. He's delighted to see all the food: enchiladas, frijoles, arroz, tacos, pasteles and hot chile. They sing "Las Manitas" and "Cumpleaños Feliz" for Antonio.


 * Bill Cosby has a hard time counting four kids.


 * It's time for the piñata at the party. Antonio gives it a good whack with the broom handle, and candy and nuts and little toys come flying out of it.


 * As the party continues, Oscar comes in with his "Grouch Piñata". He whacks at the ugly thing and out comes rocks, old sneakers, dust and spiders!


 * Maria carries out a large birthday cake with eight candles on it, and brings it to Antonio. He blows them all out, and the mariachis break into a lively song as everyone starts dancing.
