1
it's time to stock up our new stationery supplies again
2
so we have karma sienna and koa
3
and we're now going to go stationery shopping to get a
4
massive load of stuff i can't wait here we go look at this full massive stationery store here you go baskets
5
maybe you two share one of them
6
because there's only two baskets yeah what do you want to
7
look at first i kind of want to find like some
8
uh what you call it pattern paper i really would love
9
that for my scrapbook there's
10
so many options i'm looking at these like notebooks here i
11
really want to get like a daily planner oh my gosh that's
12
so pretty it's got fairies on it now this is like a lined notebook
13
but that will work because it doesn't necessarily have to say the days
14
because i'm fine to just write the date myself so this might actually be really good also that's so pretty
15
I might get that.
16
If I see a better one like a really good one
17
with like writing in it already where it says like the day and stuff maybe I'll get it.
18
But also I don't know if it'll start in January.
19
I don't really want one that starts in January.
20
I want one that starts in September.
21
So I feel like this one is probably best
22
because I can just write it in myself
23
and also I can write like to-do lists and stuff
24
that aren't like necessary to do like daily like things without the date if that makes sense.
25
So I think this is the first thing I'm going to get.
26
They're like mini washing tapes and you can put them on that little roll.
27
That's cute.
28
don't you want to get that okay i thought you probably did look at
29
that horizon that's so cute oh i might get one
30
so i'm gonna get this with the mini washing cases i'm at the section with
31
so many pencil cases i'm gonna have a little look at all of them
32
because i think i want to get a pencil case maybe
33
not like a big one though like a little one
34
because i have like some pens
35
that um don't i like don't have a pencil case to put them in
36
so they're kind of just like randomly dumped in my room
37
also i do really want to get some pens today
38
because uh a lot of my pens have run out also mom always steals my pens
39
so i need to get some pens for mom as well
40
like a pack of virus this one's quite cute it's like
41
pink pencil case let me have a look i'm gonna like unzip it
42
and there's like two sections i feel like
43
that might be a good option i'm gonna put
44
that in my basket there is this one with a pig
45
on it though that's really cute i do like pigs oh
46
actually maybe i don't know i don't think i'll get the
47
pig one i think i'll probably get this one for now actually
48
there's some more down here there's like that one oh this one's quite cute
49
so fabric one it's like blue it says enjoy the moment
50
what's that tell us got like stickers you can put in your journal maybe
51
these are like I thought they were paper
52
but they're like thick I think you draw on top of them
53
so you don't mess up sides that is pretty handy
54
but I might not get that we've Freddy got a green one in a way.
55
Guys, I just got two rolls of tape.
56
First is magic tape, which is like normal tape.
57
And then I also got this one, which is double-sided.
58
And apparently it's like less mess than glue.
59
I was thinking of getting a glue stick
60
because I like having like a glue stick to stick stuff down in my notebooks and stuff.
61
But then I saw that and I thought maybe that would be a bit better.
62
Also, I like how it has a dispenser.
63
I really want to look for post-it notes next.
64
I really, really want to get some post-it notes
65
because I actually ran out like yesterday all of my post-it notes which is perfect timing but I can't actually find any.
66
Art pads down here.
67
Wow lovely coloured pencil sets isn't it?
68
Can I look at this?
69
I think it's like, there's different numbers and you put them on.
70
Gems.
71
Yeah like different gems.
72
I'm going to skip the gems in.
73
I remember we've got a kit of that before.
74
Glue.
75
I feel like you guys are always saying you run out of...
76
Chloe, you need some more Pritt sticks, don't you?
77
Yeah, we need some more glue, don't we?
78
You need Pritt sticks?
79
Is there any Pritt sticks?
80
Errr...
81
Seems to only be this type.
82
Maybe it's in a different area then.
83
Or if not, there's this.
84
But that doesn't seem that much.
85
Hey, look at these, they're like for painting.
86
Those, but they're kind of like painting walls.
87
Yeah, they're kind of like like house pink, is what Google says.
88
But they're for kids.
89
There is so many art things down here.
90
I'm getting so excited like There's like sets of art that is so cute.
91
Oh my gosh, that actually looks so good bullet journal set This is getting me so excited.
92
I love art stuff guys.
93
Oh my gosh I still can't find pens though like actually just normal pens like packs of byros
94
and I don't think they're gonna be down here Pens, felt tips They're like felt tips look there's these And then we've got some chunky crayons here as well, Kella.
95
Yeah, they're for kids.
96
Maybe you should get those.
97
What's this?
98
What's this kit?
99
Look.
100
I think it's like a colouring kit and you get like loads of glue.
101
And you can like make those.
102
No, you can make those.
103
Look how fun that is, Kella.
104
Yeah, maybe you should get that.
105
Wow, nice.
106
Guys, I found a really good sketchbook.
107
This one looks really nice.
108
It says it's for drawing, but it's got really thick paper, so I can use like markers in it.
109
And I can decorate the cover.
110
I thought it was quite nice.
111
In my notebook I'm not really going to decorate the cover
112
so I've got a really pretty like fairy one
113
But then this one I probably will decorate the cover
114
because it's for like art
115
So I feel like I like having a little bit of
116
like a challenge We have like decorate it first before you start drawing it
117
So I think I'm probably gonna get this one
118
and also it's quite like a good size I like once this sort of size not too big and not too small.
119
Look, this is where you get to test the pens See there's all that scribble on there Yeah, they even say the different thickness Yeah Sienna's got one of these I think,
120
they work really well They're called fine liners Yeah like for writing Yeah
121
Hi guys Hi I just came down because it's so big down here I know, yeah, it's a really nice thing What is this?
122
What is this?
123
What is this?
124
Paint markers, those ones Mmm, these are not good Maybe I should get these and they're...
125
That thickness There's 12 colours in that I can get this, is that ok?
126
Yeah of course.
127
Thanks.
128
I might get one.
129
Why don't we share one?
130
Oh look, what about this one?
131
There's 24 in that one.
132
Mmm that's a good idea.
133
That's 14, that's 24.
134
And those are some...
135
Those are...
136
I think those are like pastel.
137
They're nice colours, aren't they?
138
Maybe you can't these.
139
Are these the best?
140
Do you want this pack then, Karma?
141
I don't know.
142
I think I kind of prefer pastel colours.
143
Yeah?
144
What about that colour?
145
Wait, is there colours at the bottom?
146
There's colours at the bottom of the pencil pack. Is there?
147
Oh yeah, bi-colour.
148
Those are the best, I think
149
so there's 48 colors wow i think we should get these
150
instead you can kind of create them with your pencils by sharpening the other side
151
but then they're just the same color
152
so there's not really any points i still haven't found the black pens
153
but i found these ones and they're actually really good
154
because i think they're like markers but they're kind of smaller
155
so they'll be good for art
156
but then i asked the can kind of write with them as well i think i don't know
157
but i got this like small pack of pastel ones of course i don't know
158
if you guys have noticed
159
but i've got a bit of a pastel theme going on in my basket
160
but i really just need to find black pens i want
161
to get like two packets i am thinking i want to get another post-it notes
162
because i'm thinking i'd do a run-up quite quickly
163
so where are they maybe i'll get purple ones as well
164
so then i have a packet of purple
165
and then i have a packet of like teal as well
166
oh my goodness a spaceman riding a I think actually that would be the best look.
167
Yeah, wow.
168
80 colours.
169
Who would that get that?
170
Koa, is that as tall as he?
171
It looks so many shades.
172
Literally almost.
173
Do you want to get it Koa?
174
No, I don't think it would even fit in the car.
175
That would fit in the car, are you sure?
176
You don't want that one?
177
Okay.
178
Yeah, well you hold on to that then.
179
Really?
180
You want that?
181
Oh my gosh.
182
80 colours, that looks really fun fun
183
and then paint and a pad yeah
184
that looks very good some of these kits are really good look yeah
185
144 this is even more color it's smaller than that the way they've organized it like that
186
it's just a bit silly they could have put it in a book a box like i know
187
but it's more fun
188
when it's as tall as you are isn't it how about
189
this would you like this yeah that's good yeah do you want one each i think we can share
190
that one really yes we can do all right do you
191
want your own one color uh i think we can share
192
it well there's this slightly different one i think this one that's pencils
193
and pad I think we should skip to this one
194
because we've already got literally I don't know how many like
195
a million pencils yeah yeah that's really heavy this one's a painting pad like one of those each but
196
if you don't mind yeah yeah you should get these really
197
heavy what did you put the other one back yeah all right yeah sure you don't want the one
198
which is as tall as you I reckon we'll get the one most of these ones.
199
Just make a decision.
200
And there's even a pen one.
201
Wow.
202
Oh, I like that pencil pen.
203
Wow, look at this one here.
204
You've got a lot of new pencils, haven't you?
205
Yeah.
206
Oh, it's just gaming.
207
I think it's a key.
208
Why don't it open?
209
Hang on, let's see the label.
210
It's open.
211
Yeah, look.
212
Yeah, it's a key.
213
So you get, so in other words, you can't fit your coloured pencils in it
214
because there's there's no space it's like blue and spark yeah
215
that fit your things in yeah like properly what about this one Clara would you like
216
that yeah that's all of your pencils what color would you say
217
that is come on like blue yeah that is actually so cool yeah I thought that's nice Let's open it up.
218
Like greyish blue.
219
That's stuffing. That doesn't.
220
Yeah, that's going to fit a lot in, isn't it?
221
Yeah.
222
Is that your favourite one out of all of them?
223
Mmm.
224
Prefer that one?
225
Yeah.
226
Yeah?
227
Okay.
228
Cool.
229
It's almost full.
230
I'm looking at post-it notes.
231
I'm trying to work out whether this is too small or not.
232
I feel like these ones might be a better size.
233
Oh, they're pastel, that's nice.
234
But yeah, I love this colour.
235
Well there's these ones which are even bigger, but I feel like maybe they're a bit too big, I don't know.
236
The kind of notes I want to write on post-it notes, I feel like this is probably a good size.
237
That is the classic size and I feel like that's the classic one for a reason.
238
Or like sometimes a little shopping list for the supermarket.
239
Also the tiny ones you might not notice, if it's to remind yourself of something you might not notice.
240
Yeah, I think these are the best.
241
Like if you stick it on the edge of your mirror or something.
242
Hey Dad, look, six sticks!
243
Oh yeah, nice.
244
I've got some.
245
I've already got some and that's a kit.
246
Did you get two kits?
247
I got two.
248
You got two.
249
Okay that's good.
250
Look at this notebook what I found.
251
Isn't that so pretty?
252
That is gorgeous.
253
Wow.
254
That's for my planner.
255
I know.
256
I love it so much.
257
I can't believe I found that.
258
By the way top tip about reminders or post-it notes, make sure you move them around.
259
Yeah.
260
If you leave it in the same place then your mind like just blurs it into the background.
261
Yeah.
262
And then you don't notice it.
263
Have you found the pens? pens like just buy one pens, I can't find them anywhere.
264
I feel like I've missed them because I missed the post-it notes out of me.
265
Dad I might get this.
266
It's really nice.
267
It's a tape.
268
I know.
269
Okay it's a tiny one, do you want to get a big one?
270
There is some big ones.
271
Big ones.
272
I feel like you always ask me for tape and I've even ran out myself in the office.
273
Oh I was trying to look for those.
274
That's what I was trying to look for.
275
Okay, that's like a...
276
That's even smaller.
277
Oh, do you know what that is?
278
It's to cover words.
279
Yeah, that's a corrector cover.
280
Which are, you know...
281
Like tip X.
282
That's actually not tape.
283
Yeah, X, like the thing you don't want on paper.
284
Yeah.
285
Like this morning when I wrote that funny little silly joke on paper.
286
You could do it.
287
So what you want is a roll of tape, or lots of rolls of tape, don't you?
288
I might add you to get two, three, fours.
289
Okay, go on you can grab that if you want.
290
I didn't know it was for like X.
291
I don't think you know what it is, but you're going to learn what it is by buying it today.
292
So that'll be fun.
293
One, three.
294
The brown one can be for you, and the blue one can be for me.
295
Okay, nice.
296
So grab yourself some tape then.
297
You definitely need sellotape.
298
Two?
299
Whoa.
300
How many do you want, Koa?
301
Double-sided tape.
302
How many sellotape do you want, Koa?
303
Just like two, I think.
304
Or three, so you want one to drop.
305
I really like this one.
306
Kale's so distracting.
307
Right, you put those in the basket, Karma.
308
No, I want this one.
309
Yeah, that's fine.
310
Have that one as well.
311
That one's going to run out very quickly.
312
I think we should stick to these, Karma.
313
But Karma, look, that is the same thing.
314
But that is a little bit bigger.
315
Okay, fine.
316
Get it all.
317
Right, so you both got a pencil paste, didn't you?
318
Hey Dad, look, this could be for your office, look.
319
Like sucks up money.
320
Counterfeit detector.
321
Dad, look.
322
Yeah, so you've both got pencil case, you've both got sellotape, you've both got a pad,
323
you've got coloured pencils, what else do you need?
324
Paper?
325
Okay, I was thinking about the printed paper but I never really found that.
326
Well, I'm actually on my last pack of printer paper in the office as well
327
and you do ask me for that pretty much every day, don't you?
328
Yeah?
329
So let's look for some of those.
330
Look there.
331
We have a look there, Karma.
332
Is it a notebook of it?
333
That's to put inside a ring binder from the looks of it.
334
So these are ring binders.
335
Look, when they have those rings on.
336
Yeah.
337
See, and then you can put the binder paper inside them.
338
So I think, do you want the binder paper or do you just want plain paper?
339
I kind of just wanted like colour paper to like rip bits about and like glue it on my scrapbook.
340
That's kind of what I meant.
341
So what was this then?
342
That was also binder one.
343
I mean, if you're going to cut it out, you can still cut that out.
344
You know what I'm trying to look for?
345
It's like stickers or something.
346
Okay.
347
You've really got some stickers, haven't you, at the bottom?
348
No. So you've got some.
349
Right, let's definitely get paper then, yeah?
350
Let's get paper and also look for stickers while we're looking for paper.
351
That's a massive pack of paper.
352
That's the one we have at home.
353
Yeah, we have that.
354
Let's grab.
355
Do you want me to carry this?
356
Yeah.
357
Yeah, it's gonna make it really heavy so I'll carry it in.
358
Then you want coloured, don't you?
359
And some stickers.
360
Alright, where's coloured paper?
361
Or do you just want to get that one with the ring binder?
362
I don't really get how to use it though, like you just rip some.
363
Well if you're cutting it out then...
364
Or do you want to get a folder?
365
How about that?
366
A folder?
367
One of these folders I told you about.
368
Just think about it, if you had one of those, then you can put them inside it and then keep all of your designs that you've done, which might be nice oh yeah yeah
369
if you want to choose what you can keep all the
370
bits of paper yeah rather than them being loose yeah why
371
don't you choose do you want one as well coer uh
372
yeah a folder then you keep i think it keeps it all neat
373
and tidy doesn't it how do you put all of it in do you like cut holes out
374
so these have those holes in see the holes on the edge yeah
375
so the holes on the edge clip into see the rings on there yeah
376
so it holds it in place
377
and this actually even comes with a pack inside it anywhere yeah
378
if you like the look of those so choose your favorite folder you want to use your favorite folder okay nice
379
and then you can also get a thing called a hole punch
380
and then you can get plain paper and you can punch holes in it with with the machine I might get this.
381
Yeah, you want that one?
382
Okay bud, pop that in.
383
Right, so is that everything?
384
Yeah, that's everything.
385
But I do want some sticks.
386
Oh yeah, we're going to look for those, aren't we?
387
Whoa!
388
He's like so much.
389
Careful that one doesn't split.
390
Yeah, maybe I should hold it like a baby.
391
He missed you so much the whole time he's pining for you.
392
Mom, guess what?
393
Or maybe he just wanted to see all the presentation.
394
80 pencils.
395
What?
396
It's nearly as big as me!
397
Yeah!
398
Wow!
399
That's amazing!
400
I can't wait to see what we've got.
401
Are you ready to see everything that we've got, Mum?
402
Should we go from the back first?
403
I am saying this because this one's supposed to be my stuff.
404
But there is some other stuff.
405
What's this?
406
Ooh!
407
This is basically like, we showed you in the video.
408
But it's basically like a little paint pan where it comes with glue and paint.
409
That's nice.
410
I like how you've got loads of things in that.
411
Ooh, are they like painting?
412
They're like paint pans.
413
Oh, for watercolour yeah for watercolor we can't wait wow they're cool they're stickers pencils oh these are cool
414
so you did get stickers color oh i got stickers you've got another pack of stickers after
415
that because i think you thought i got stickers for me
416
and look how cool they are they've got pencils at the bottom
417
and pencils at the top oh yeah aren't they
418
so by color they said yeah they're double ended then i
419
got these post-it notes i love the colors i kind of want to pass through To remind you to do things.
420
Yeah.
421
And then I got this sketchbook and I thought I could decorate the cover.
422
And also the paper's like really good.
423
That looks nice.
424
And then I got some pencils to go with the sketchbook.
425
It says you can win 10,000 euros worth of pencils.
426
Oh, pencils?
427
No, no, no, it's like a...
428
Oh, it's a pure gold, like, replica pencil.
429
Oh, nice.
430
You should go and enter that.
431
I mean that would be pretty cool.
432
And then I've got these pastel markers.
433
Oh they're nice.
434
I love how all this stuff is pastel.
435
Are you ready for my favourite thing?
436
When I saw this I was so excited.
437
Oh that's gorgeous.
438
They're so pretty.
439
And it's lined so it's perfect for writing like to-do lists.
440
That's so pretty.
441
I feel like it's almost too nice for to-do lists but I'm going to write them with my best handwriting.
442
Well if it helps you achieve things then it's definitely worth it.
443
That's so pretty.
444
Oh, what's this guys?
445
Oh, is that like a craft kit?
446
Yeah.
447
Oh, we got it together.
448
It's like a sort of colouring kit with like all the colours.
449
Paper figures, craft and stuff.
450
And you can make the paper figures and so cool, isn't it?
451
I love how it's got everything in that as well.
452
It's got loads of supplies.
453
And then I got some pens and you can pick two if you like.
454
Okay then.
455
Three.
456
I'll have the blue and then I'll have that one.
457
Thank you.
458
You're welcome.
459
See pastel again.
460
Yeah I like them.
461
All of the brands are doing pastel stuff.
462
Oh what's this?
463
I got this it's like a little like washi tape kit I thought I just had to get it
464
because it even comes with this little roll
465
and all the mini things I just thought it's so cute
466
and then I got two tapes double sided tape instead of glue I realize this is better
467
because glue you can kind of see through paper if it's thin
468
and also says it's like less mess
469
and then I got like some normal tape nice
470
and then the last thing I got this pencil case oh I really like
471
that and it's got so many compartments look like two big ones
472
and a little one is it full of stuff or empty it's like a full of like foam right yeah Yeah, because some of the ones we were looking at actually had whole kits inside.
473
I bet Romeo's going to want to play with that.
474
Right, definitely get that away so he can't shred it out.
475
That's going to get shredded up in there, isn't it?
476
And then the next bag.
477
Wow!
478
This one's heavy.
479
So then we got these notebooks, where basically you can see this paper, you know these types where you can like put some in it.
480
Should open it up and show your mum.
481
Yeah.
482
A ring binder.
483
Yeah, a ring binder.
484
I used to love these when I was a teenager.
485
Right.
486
For me to help.
487
I know what you can do, the easy way.
488
In the end.
489
Oh, yeah.
490
There you go.
491
Satisfying, isn't it?
492
What are you planning on doing with this?
493
It comes with some papers, and I kind of wanted to do drawings on it and, like, hook it onto it.
494
You can see how that's fair paper.
495
Oh, dear.
496
I thought this was really nice, because then they can see their things that they're doing more easily, rather than having loose piles.
497
Yeah, they have so many piles of paper everywhere, don't you?
498
Oh, wow.
499
Wow, that looks cool.
500
There's square paper as well.
501
That's cool.
502
What else?
503
And then we got this pencil case for color.
504
It's like a space one.
505
I want to hear why color is so good.
506
You can choose it, I choose it.
507
What do you love about this color?
508
Wow.
509
Look, it has a little secret pocket.
510
There's so many.
511
It's called Bits and Bobs.
512
It really is a pencil case for Bits and Bobs, isn't it?
513
Look.
514
Cool.
515
That can be like for erasers and maybe like secret notes.
516
It's got those secret bits.
517
You can put something in there, can't you?
518
That's for writing your name.
519
Yeah?
520
That's your ID card.
521
Yeah.
522
Wow, this is the best pencil case I've ever seen.
523
It hasn't come with stuff in there.
524
Wow, you've got one compartment.
525
You've got two.
526
You've got three.
527
Wow.
528
I love that.
529
This gigantic pencil circle.
530
Yeah, it's just all those in.
531
See if they'll actually fit, Koa.
532
Place your bets.
533
Do you think those 80 pencils are going to fit in that pencil case?
534
No, I think no. I think they are, because they are quite spaced out.
535
I think they'll be able to fit in the compartment.
536
It's going to be a tight fit, but probably, yeah.
537
I love how it's got stars over it, and your middle name is what, Koa?
538
Mm-hmm, Koa Star.
539
And also today's a special day with all the stars and planets as well.
540
So that's actually really fitting pencil paper today.
541
And the next cover I'll bring binder.
542
Oh, so you've got one.
543
Yeah.
544
Oh, nice.
545
I'm going to do it.
546
Yeah, you're well excited to do that.
547
Wait, wait.
548
Shine it.
549
I think I'm really mum's good at this.
550
Ready?
551
She's the longest name.
552
And then we've got some plain paper pretty boring but fun for doing nice drawings.
553
It's boring but it's actually probably the most important thing ever.
554
Yeah you can use it.
555
So we've got this tape for the round of the best.
556
And then we've got some tape sticks.
557
Don't you're too happy about them?
558
Because we always have to run in Dad's office and be like Dad can we have tape?
559
And he's like no we've ran out sorry.
560
Yeah I've actually run out now.
561
Yeah they love tape.
562
If it's a roll of tape they've immediately got it haven't you?
563
and color kind of went a bit crazy
564
and had to buy this one as well the novelty of it being on
565

566

604

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
