0:00:33 > 0:00:37All puffing into the big balloon, filling it up with air.

0:00:37 > 0:00:39Aaaah, oooft. Aah, ooft.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43Oh, hello, there. Welcome to Big City Park.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44Hello, everyone.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Aw, hi, Billy.- Hi.

0:00:47 > 0:00:51I was just telling May about the time I sailed around the world

0:00:51 > 0:00:52in a hot air balloon.

0:00:52 > 0:00:57And you're just in time to hear the best bit of the story.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Gather round. Gather round.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04Then, out of the blue, came a whole flock of pointy-birds!

0:01:04 > 0:01:08And they flew right into the side of the balloon

0:01:08 > 0:01:09and then...

0:01:09 > 0:01:15- bang! The whole thing burst.- Oh! And then what did you do?

0:01:15 > 0:01:19Oh, well, then I just turned it in to a giant kite

0:01:19 > 0:01:22and glided the rest of the way.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26- Aaah, gliding is so graceful. Aaah. - MAY LAUGHS

0:01:28 > 0:01:31Hee-hee! That was a brilliant story, Ruairi.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34- Was it true? - Well, some of it was true.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37- The rest I just made up using my imagination.- Hm.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41What's imagination?

0:01:41 > 0:01:46Er... It's... Well, it's what you use to make up little stories

0:01:46 > 0:01:47in your mind.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Ohhh.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53- What's wrong, Billy?- I wish I could use my imagination

0:01:53 > 0:01:55and make up a story.

0:01:55 > 0:01:57Well, why don't you, then, Billy?

0:01:57 > 0:01:59Cos...well...

0:01:59 > 0:02:01I can't think of one.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05Maybe I don't have an imagination.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10- Hi, everyone.- Hi, Dara.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Hi, Daisy.

0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Hi.- Hi, Molly.- Hey.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16- Hi, Christie.- Hi.

0:02:16 > 0:02:21Billy wants to make up a story, but he can't think of one.

0:02:21 > 0:02:24Maybe if we go on an adventure in the park,

0:02:24 > 0:02:28- you could turn that into a story. - Oh! Good idea!

0:02:28 > 0:02:32- Shall we go on an adventure? - ALL: Yes.

0:02:32 > 0:02:34# Big City Park! #

0:02:34 > 0:02:37I think we're nearly ready.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38OK.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40Bags on shoulders.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42ALL: Bags on shoulders.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44Boots on toes.

0:02:44 > 0:02:47ALL: Boots on toes.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49It's adventure time so...

0:02:49 > 0:02:53ALL: Off we go!

0:03:20 > 0:03:21- Billy?- Yeah?

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Maybe we could use this tree trunk in your story.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27- Yeah.- Huh?

0:03:27 > 0:03:30It's just an old tree trunk.

0:03:30 > 0:03:35- But it can be anything you want it to be, Billy.- Oh.

0:03:35 > 0:03:37What can you see?

0:03:37 > 0:03:40I can see, it looks like a jungle or an island.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42It could look like an island

0:03:42 > 0:03:46- or these could be like leaves on a tree.- Or a treehouse.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49It could be a treehouse, Billy. What do you think?

0:03:49 > 0:03:55- Hmm. A treehouse.- I think it's like a big green swimming pool.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57ALL GIGGLE

0:03:57 > 0:04:00It's still just looks like a tree trunk to me.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03Look at the tree trunk.

0:04:03 > 0:04:04OK.

0:04:04 > 0:04:08What do you see?

0:04:08 > 0:04:10Er...

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Use your imagination!

0:04:12 > 0:04:13Oh, dear.

0:04:13 > 0:04:18What can you do when you use your imagination?

0:04:18 > 0:04:21Dara, I think we might need some help with this one.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Leave it to me.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Yup, it's the rainy season.

0:04:31 > 0:04:33And I think...

0:04:33 > 0:04:38I hear a hurricane a-blowing.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41It is lashing down.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Hi, Ruairi!

0:04:42 > 0:04:47- Hi, Dara.- I never knew watering plants could be so much fun!

0:04:48 > 0:04:53- Oh, aye! Yup, it can be, if you use your imagination.- Oh.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56I like to pretend there's a big storm.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59The watering can, it's like the rain.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01And then I blow on the plants...

0:05:01 > 0:05:04- Aaaah, ooooft.- Wow.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06And that's like the wind.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10It's good to use your imagination. I'll check in with my city friends

0:05:10 > 0:05:12to see how they use theirs.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Whenever I was a lad, I used to use imagination to imagine

0:05:16 > 0:05:21- I was imagining all sorts of imaginary things.- Got to dash.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23- Bye!- Hmm...

0:05:23 > 0:05:27I imagine... He-he-he. ..they'll all be getting hungry soon,

0:05:27 > 0:05:31so I think I'll rustle up some snacks for everyone.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33Right. Let's see.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Um... Hmm...

0:05:38 > 0:05:42Imagination. There it is! Hee-hee.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Imagine that.

0:05:44 > 0:05:46Hee-hee. From the fastest fox

0:05:46 > 0:05:51in Big City Park to the friendliest friends in the big city.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53Tell us what you know.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57We're going to hear a story outside!

0:05:57 > 0:05:58Come with us.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Hello. My name is Dana and I'm a storyteller.

0:06:10 > 0:06:15Now, we all have imaginations and I bet yours are really, really good.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18"What luscious grapes,"

0:06:18 > 0:06:20said a hungry cat.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24"What fine, green grapes," said he.

0:06:24 > 0:06:27"If I jump as high as a clever cat can,

0:06:27 > 0:06:28"miaow,

0:06:28 > 0:06:32"I'll have those grapes for my tea." Yum, yum.

0:06:32 > 0:06:36So he jumped and he leapt,

0:06:36 > 0:06:38- and snapped with his teeth.- Snap!

0:06:38 > 0:06:41But only the air could he bite

0:06:41 > 0:06:46whilst those grapes, green and juicy, dangled above

0:06:46 > 0:06:49and swayed from a lofty height.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51That cat grew mad

0:06:51 > 0:06:56and scarlet red. And, tossing his head, said he,

0:06:56 > 0:06:59"Those grapes are sour...

0:06:59 > 0:07:01"and full of worms!

0:07:01 > 0:07:04"Who wants those grapes? Not me!"

0:07:04 > 0:07:05ALL: Not me.

0:07:05 > 0:07:09Well, we can all use our imaginations.

0:07:09 > 0:07:13Tell me if you can reach those luscious grapes.

0:07:13 > 0:07:16- I got them!- Well done. Can you get them?

0:07:17 > 0:07:20How does your cat jump in your imagination?

0:07:20 > 0:07:24This way, show your friends. Can you show? Look at those worms.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27You've got worms. Thank you, Sophie.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30- Who wants those grapes?- Not me!

0:07:30 > 0:07:31Do you?

0:07:31 > 0:07:33ALL: Bye!

0:07:33 > 0:07:34Bye.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Thanks, bye.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Big City Park!

0:07:43 > 0:07:45Hiya, Billy!

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oh, hi, May.

0:07:47 > 0:07:48What's wrong?

0:07:48 > 0:07:52I don't get it. When you look at a flower,

0:07:52 > 0:07:57you can see smiley faces and spacemen

0:07:57 > 0:08:01and, well, all I can see is a flower!

0:08:02 > 0:08:07Aww, Billy. You just have to try to use your imagination.

0:08:07 > 0:08:08Yeah.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11I've got an idea.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15You see these? These are just my hands.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- Right?- Right.

0:08:17 > 0:08:20What about now?

0:08:20 > 0:08:24Don't they look a little bit like a lovely bird?

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Oh! I can see the wings flapping!

0:08:28 > 0:08:33- I can see it!- You've got it, Billy! You're using your imagination.

0:08:33 > 0:08:34Yeah!

0:08:34 > 0:08:36I found out for you, Billy.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Everyone has an imagination.

0:08:38 > 0:08:43- I know!- Now you've got your imagination working, Billy,

0:08:43 > 0:08:46are you going to tell us a story?

0:08:46 > 0:08:52I'm going to do even better than that. Follow me!

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Oh! Billy!

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Ooh, OK. I'm all right. THEY LAUGH

0:08:58 > 0:09:03Ah. Ha-ha. These sandwiches look like little boats

0:09:03 > 0:09:05and the blue plates are like the sea.

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Hmm. I wonder where the others are?

0:09:09 > 0:09:16Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18- SHE GASPS - Me!

0:09:18 > 0:09:22Everybody thought she was brilliant,

0:09:22 > 0:09:26but she had a wicked stepsister...

0:09:29 > 0:09:32..who was always in a bad mood!

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Grr!

0:09:34 > 0:09:35THEY LAUGH

0:09:35 > 0:09:40All the children were very scared of her. Hee-hee!

0:09:40 > 0:09:45I am in a very, very bad mood!

0:09:45 > 0:09:46- Grr!- Oh!

0:09:46 > 0:09:52But then, one day, a brave superhero came to town,

0:09:52 > 0:09:55on a big horse. That's me!

0:09:55 > 0:09:57THEY LAUGH

0:09:57 > 0:09:59Clip, clop, clip, clop!

0:09:59 > 0:10:05And he asked the wicked stepsister, "Why are you in such a bad mood?"

0:10:05 > 0:10:08Because I'm hungry!

0:10:09 > 0:10:14If we give you something to eat, will you stop being wicked?

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Yes!

0:10:16 > 0:10:18THEY LAUGH

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Ha-ha! Ear muffs!

0:10:21 > 0:10:27These ear protectors will protect my ears when the big bell goes bong!

0:10:38 > 0:10:40DONG!

0:10:40 > 0:10:42Argh!

0:10:42 > 0:10:47Then, the brave superhero asked the beautiful princess

0:10:47 > 0:10:51if there was somewhere they could go to get something to eat.

0:10:51 > 0:10:52And she said...

0:10:52 > 0:10:54Um... Ah!

0:10:54 > 0:11:00Good King Ruairi will have a feast ready for us at the Story Circle!

0:11:00 > 0:11:07And they all lived happily ever after. The end.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43It can turn your hands into a bird

0:12:43 > 0:12:46It can even turn Ruairi into a king
