Full Episode: Basma in the Spotlight, Season 3, Arabic (Iraqi), Kurdish (Kurmanji)
In a neighborhood celebration Basma decides to try something other than singing while Jad, Gargour and the others play in a band. Jad thinks Basma wants to sing so he assigns her the role of the main singer without noticing she wants to play an instrument to try something new. Meanwhile, Bulbul is cooking his favorite meal for his friends - but he didn't ask them what their favorite meals are! Later in the workshop, Salma teaches us how to make our own instrument using a plastic water bottle, pebbles, and buttons. The number of the day is 2!
