26/07/2014 Newsround

Good morning, I'm Jenny, live, with your Saturday Newsround

on day three of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

It's one of the busiest days of the competition with 29 gold

medals up for grabs today.

The action's already underway with Australia just beating England

by a single point in the netball.

But the home nations will be hoping to keep up yesterday's huge success.

The medals keep coming for the home nations in the pool.

There were golds for England's Chris Walker-Hebborn in the 100m

backstroke, and Scotland's Daniel Wallace, who stormed to victory in

the men's 400m individual medley.

But at just 19 years old, it was Ben Proud who stood out as he broke the

British and Commonwealth record to win the 50m Butterfly for England.

I don't know what to say.

I realised it has come off.

I am beyond excited.

In the velodrome, cycling legend Joanna Rowsell, won the 3,000 metre

individual pursuit for England.

But team mate Jason Kenny had to settle for silver

in the men's sprint.

The crowd saved their biggest cheers for Scottish

Para-cyclist, Neil Facky, and his pilot Craig MacLean, who stormed

to victory in the men's 1,000 metre tandem time trial, for blind

and visually impaired athletes.

Elsewhere, the home nations continued to dominate the judo,

with England picking up three gold medals yesterday.

Owen Livesey, Danny Williams and Megan Fletcher

all triumphed while Scotland's Sarah Clark won the women's 63kg final.

And there was good news for Wales as Francesca Jones took the silver

medal in the rhythmic gymnastics individual all-around final.

The question is - can the home nations keep it up with

more medals, today?

Now these Games have thrust Glasgow into the world spotlight

like never before.

So we asked the kids of Scotland's biggest city to tell us what makes

their home so special.

I love Glasgow because there's so many things to see,

like the Armadillo.

I am never bored here and I love it.

It is a beautiful city.

The people are so friendly.

There's loads of things to do.

It is quite homely and everybody is so kind.

It is rainy and I like the rain!

I am excited to see lots of world-class athletes coming from

Commonwealth countries to our city.

It will encourage people to do more sport.

The people from Glasgow will become more sportier.

Everybody around the world coming to Glasgow and it will be hard

for my mum to park her car!

I will make lots of new friends and I'm excited.

I am looking forward to everyone visiting to see

how beautiful Glasgow is.

In other sports news, Chelsea fans are celebrating

after the club announced they've re-signed star striker Didier Drogba

on a one-year deal.

Drogba left Stamford Bridge two years ago after helping the Blues

secure their first ever Champions League title.

The Ivorian is Chelsea's fourth highest goalscorer of all time.

And for the second day today, giant figures are stomping through

a city in England.

This young girl and her dog, as well as her 25 foot tall grandma,

are wowing crowds of thousands as they walk their way through

sunny Liverpool all this weekend.

They're telling stories from history, to commemorate the

100th anniversary of World War One.

The giant girl was even giving rides to some brave kids, and it seems the

huge puppets have been a big hit!

After the massive success of last year's Doctor Who prom concert,

the BBC Philharmonic orchestra wants to bring classical music to

a brand new, younger, audience.

So they've turned to kids' TV shows, with the Cbeebies prom!

Here's Hayley.

You may recognise some of these tunes from your favourite

CBeebies and CBBC programmes.

But they don't usually look like this.

The BBC Proms is one of the world's biggest classical musical festivals

and it is hoping it can use some of the popular kids shows to get

a younger audience through the doors of the Royal Albert Hall.

I like them playing.

I liked the songs when Robert the Robot was up on those things

and we done that ding dong.

It is not only kids who are there.

CBeebies characters and presenters are getting involved

in the music, too.

The space is incredible because it's been here so long.

Fantastic and performers have performed here -

it has a real good ambience and it is the first of its kind.

It is exciting.

It is quite staggering.

Look at the place.

It is wonderful.

5,000 people all here for this, the first time it has been done.

My cogs whirring!

There is growing scientific evidence that learning an instrument can help

brain development.

I would hope it will open their eyes to the fact that real live musicians

play music they hear all the time and if that inspires them

to take up an instrument, great.

But the best bit about the Proms is just joining in with the music.

That's all from me, Newsround's back just before 2 o'clock, see you then.
