home in kentucky. thank you so much for joining us. let's get right to it, dan. we're told that you were a bit reluctant to do this at first. the video evidence tells a very difft story. why, though, the initial hesitation? >> well, normally -- i love doing tiktok videos with these guys all the time. but in this case this tiktok, we wanted to create a story where it looked like i was reluctant because on tiktok there's a lot of great dancers right now, and they have good moves, and i was like very reluctant, but these guys came up with the storyline to make it look like i was reluctant and became the hero in the end, so it was actually a lot of fun for us to do that. >> you're our hero. that's for sure. collin, i want to turn to you for a moment. we mentioned that this video has been viewed millions and millions of times. you direct and edit these clips. how does it feel to know you're delivering so much joy to people out there who truly need it right now? >> it's the most amazing feeling

in the world just knowing that people have seen this that many times but then seeing the comments roll through saying i'm doing this with my mom, my dad and seeing them doing it with their grandparents especially right now during the time of quarantine when families are together. you can do this. everybody can have fun together and this guy actually won a disco competition in 1979.

understand, about pregnant women with covid-19 and possible transmission to their newborns. can you tell us more about this? >> yeah. very small studies just published in "jama." they looked at three newborns born via c-section to moms who had covid-19 and recovered and found evidence of antibodies in those babies. the babies were well. they were not sick. so it definitely needs more research. we have to underscore this. but, again, there may be a suggestion that these antibodies or the infection can be passed in utero, so that's being looked at. >> that's concerning. we've also been hearing about pregnant women being admitted for labor or delivery and not being allowed to bring their support person. what is going on here? >> this is such a big deal, dan. you know, in the united states childbirth is the number one reason for admission to a hospital. there are 4 million births in this country every year, and we

know that having a continuous support person improves labor and delivery outcomes for a mother. but we're seeing in new york city some aggressive and very precautionary action taken on the part of some major hospitals preventing any support person from being in the delivery room with that mother. so, again, risk/benefit. they're trying to curtail their exposure to covid-19 in the hospital. but there are some risks to that physically and psychologically to that woman in labor. >> we only have a few seconds here, but do you have other tips for pregnant women in the midst of this pandemic? >> yeah, just quickly, we don't want pregnant women skipping prenatal care. we know that that's really important, so you want to talk to your obstetrician or midwife about ways to do that, and get a copy of your prenatal chart just in case you may need to deliver at another hospital. >> dr. ashton, really appreciate it. thank you so much. let's switch gears and get it over to rob for the weather. hey, rob. >> good morning, again, guys. it was a beautiful day yesterday

time to pay attention. >> reporter: tip number two, set a schedule. mom marian made a detailed plan for her kids to follow. >> we have it broken down into academic time, creative time, even snack, lunch, dinner time and most importantly chores. >> reporter: number three, use a timer as your own school bell. >> one of the things i do each day is reading for 30 minutes and set a timer on my watch. four, expand your definition of learning, use this time to teach kids important life skills like loading the dishwasher or taking out the trash. above all, remember to cut yourself some slack. >> so many parents are so nervous about having this time at home when they're working and homeschooling their children, but this is an opportunity we won't likely ever have again, so slow down, do what you can and be gentle with yourself. >> reporter: that is right. don't stress yourself out. embrace this time with your kids this time at home and maybe do some of the things you never really had time for but from home. guys? >> i think there's some really interesting points.

stephanie, thank you so much. because it is tough. let's not sugar coat it. it's really tough to have kids around the house, especially if you live in a small apartment but we're not going to get this time back and a lot of us complain about not having enough time with our kids. so might as well do our best to enjoy it. >> you have to appreciate those moments. >> and show yourself some grace in it all. now to "deals & steals" while staying indoors. we've got huge deals on activities you can enjoy at home and the best part, they're all from small businesses. joining us to show us this great selection is tory johnson, so good to have you this morning, tory. show us the first product you have for us. >> reporter: good morning. okay, so the first one is a company called madd capp puzzles. and these are not just any old jigsaw puzzles. these are all shaped like animal heads, and what i love about them is most traditional puzzles start with the border, so you do the border then you work your way in. these, you're dealing with eyes, antlers, snouts depending on the animal you choose and they come in some

they're normally $15 to $20, today they're slashed in half so they start at $7.50. >> that seems like something that my son aims at daddy's head. >> yes. >> i feel like that could be fun indoors although parents would probably be mad about it. >> you would be safe if that happened. >> the dad torpedo. >> a lot of parents at home who are trying to teach their kids things that seem like they're pretty simple, but they're very complicated. >> yes, and that's what's good with this company learning resources because it is all about helping kids love to learn and they've got a product for every age and every stage. a lot of their kind of favorites that help to bring the classroom home and for a lot of parents who are looking for activities to be able to do just that, this is the company for you. they've got everything from their popular beakers creatures to all kinds of snap and learn shapes. just a really phenomenal assortment you will find online. they normally start at $8, but today it is slashed in half, so everything from learning resources will start at just $4.

♪ you got that yummy all right, time the tricks you need at the supermarket entering another week of social distancing. we're all still trying to get used to it. you're probably running out of goods from your last supermarket run. so when you are restocking this weekend we've got the grocery game plan that you need and joining us to break it all down from her home in brooklyn, dietitian and nutritionist maya feller. maya, good morning to you. all right, let's jump right to it. >> good morning. >> you've got some key tricks to making the most of those store shelves that have already been basically picked over. let's start in the produce aisle. what should we get there? >> absolutely, so the first thing i'm going to suggest is to take a look at the citrus. there's tons of gorgeous citrus out there. we have lemons, limes, we have grapefruits, pomellos, great source of vitamin c. anti oxidant rich.

i suggest potatoes, all types. we have regular potatoes and also sweet potatoes. winter squash as well, between these you'll have vitamin c, potassium as well as b vitamins, all very nutrient rich and have a great shelf life. >> love those ideas there and also you have a tip to really boost the flavor in your food. >> that's right. so when you go to the store we're seeing that all the dried spices are sold out. however, when i went shopping there was a ton of fresh spices. so i created a pesto of sorts and what i did was i froze them. i have two different types of cubes here. you can go ahead and put it in an ice cube tray and then you can use it later on as a flavor booster in anything that you want to cook. >> or you can give your kids the worst popsicle ever. >> you never know. someone might like a pesto popsicle. now take us through the center aisles of the store. >> yeah, absolutely. so we're seeing that the rice and pasta is gone.
