0:00:33 > 0:00:35Welcome to Big City Park.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Hey! What's everyone doing?
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Oh, Billy! You made us jump there!
0:00:44 > 0:00:47I was just watering my lovely flowers.
0:00:47 > 0:00:49And I was watering my vegetables.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53Isn't that right? Yous-yous-yous!
0:00:55 > 0:00:59What? You know, they grow bigger if you talk to them.
0:00:59 > 0:01:01Why are you growing things anyway?
0:01:01 > 0:01:06Why don't you just buy some vegetables or flowers at the shops?
0:01:06 > 0:01:10At the shop?! At the sh...?
0:01:10 > 0:01:14It's OK, he didn't mean it! Not in front of the vegetables, Billy!
0:01:14 > 0:01:16- It's fun to grow things.- Mm?
0:01:16 > 0:01:20You start off with a tiny seed, and with a little bit of hard work,
0:01:20 > 0:01:23you end up with some lovely vegetables to eat,
0:01:23 > 0:01:25or some lovely flowers.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Wow! Growing things does sound like fun.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- I want to grow something.- Well,
0:01:32 > 0:01:34you can grow some vegetables, like me.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36I want to grow a football plant.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38MAY GIGGLES
0:01:38 > 0:01:41Then I could practise football every day.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44I want to be a goalkeeper.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49But Billy, you can't grow a football.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53- You can only grow things that come from seeds.- Oh-h!
0:01:53 > 0:01:55But that's not fair.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57MAY LAUGHS
0:02:01 > 0:02:02Hi, everyone.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04Oh, hi, Dara!
0:02:04 > 0:02:05Hi, Katie.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Hi.
0:02:07 > 0:02:09- Hi, Beth.- Hi.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- Hi, Lara.- Hi.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14Billy wants to grow a football plant,
0:02:14 > 0:02:18but he can't, because footballs don't come from seeds.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21But there are loads of other things we can grow from seeds.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25- Maybe we should find something else to grow.- Shall we explore
0:02:25 > 0:02:29- and find as many different kinds of seeds as we can?- Yes!
0:02:29 > 0:02:32CHILDREN: Big City Park!
0:02:32 > 0:02:37Let's go and find some seeds to bring for Ruairi's treasure chest.
0:02:37 > 0:02:42My chest is a great place to keep seeds safe until we plant them.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Isn't that right? Brr-rr-rr!
0:02:45 > 0:02:49ALL GIGGLE
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- What?- Oh, Ruairi!
0:02:53 > 0:02:56I only want to grow a football plant.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00Don't worry. We'll figure something out.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03- I'm sure there's a seed that can help you.- Ah!
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Bags on shoulders?
0:03:04 > 0:03:06ALL: Bags on shoulders.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Boots on toes?
0:03:08 > 0:03:10ALL: Boots on toes.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12It's Exploring Time, so...
0:03:12 > 0:03:15ALL: Off we go!
0:03:15 > 0:03:19Come on, then. Let's go and see what we can find.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23# Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
0:03:23 > 0:03:26# Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah...! #
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Look!
0:03:35 > 0:03:38I've found a pine cone.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40# ..Yeah, yeah, yeah...! #
0:03:49 > 0:03:53Wow! Look at these seeds.
0:03:53 > 0:03:57Maybe we could plant them in pots and grow our own flowers.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00Shall we grow our own flowers?
0:04:00 > 0:04:01ALL: Yes!
0:04:03 > 0:04:05- Oh!- What's wrong, Billy?
0:04:05 > 0:04:10Flowers can't help me become a better goalkeeper.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13I need to grow a football plant.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15You can't grow a football plant.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- They don't have any seeds.- Oh!
0:04:18 > 0:04:20If I can't grow a football plant,
0:04:20 > 0:04:24then I don't want to grow anything.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29- We really want you to come and have fun planting seeds with us.- Hmm.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32What kinds of fun things do YOU grow? Dara,
0:04:32 > 0:04:36I think we'll need some help to figure this one out.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Leave it to me.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Where's she dashing off to now?
0:04:41 > 0:04:44She's going to find out what things we can grow
0:04:44 > 0:04:48- to help you become the best goalkeeper in the whole world.- Oh!
0:04:48 > 0:04:51I hope she finds something.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52Me too!
0:04:52 > 0:04:56Come on, let's keep looking. Come on, Billy.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58OK.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02Hee-hee! And then I said, "That's not an elephant!
0:05:02 > 0:05:04"Elephants go like this!"
0:05:04 > 0:05:06HE TRUMPETS
0:05:06 > 0:05:08HE LAUGHS
0:05:08 > 0:05:12Well, he didn't know where to look, and then I said...
0:05:12 > 0:05:15What are you talking about, Ruairi?
0:05:15 > 0:05:17You're talking!
0:05:17 > 0:05:18I knew it!
0:05:18 > 0:05:21Hrr-mm!
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Hello, plants...
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Waagh!
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Dara!
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Did you think the plants were talking to you, Ruairi?
0:05:29 > 0:05:33No, no, no, no! Sure, plants don't speak.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Oh, Ruairi!
0:05:36 > 0:05:39Plants haven't spoken since I was a wean.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Back then, you couldn't shut them up. The trees talked to the bushes,
0:05:43 > 0:05:46and you couldn't get a word in "hedgeways"!
0:05:46 > 0:05:49I'm going to check in with my city friends,
0:05:49 > 0:05:53see what kind of cool stuff they can grow. Got to dash.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55Bye.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57Oh.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00What was that? Oh!
0:06:01 > 0:06:06Right. I need to learn about all the types of things you can grow.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Let's see...
0:06:11 > 0:06:14There it is!
0:06:15 > 0:06:19Grow it, cook it, eat it. That's the one I want!
0:06:19 > 0:06:22From the fastest box in Big City Park
0:06:22 > 0:06:26to the friendliest friends in the big city - tell us what you know.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- Hello!- Hello!
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Look at the cherries!
0:06:41 > 0:06:44- We're growing strawberries. - They're really good for you.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48We're planting seeds
0:06:48 > 0:06:53so later in the year they'll turn into vegetables.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56I'm digging up carrots.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00I love to dig for vegetables.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02Here's a carrot.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06Here's quite a big carrot.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10We're digging potatoes for our soup.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I wonder what the soup will taste like.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Look! I've found a potato.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16I've found a potato.
0:07:17 > 0:07:22When I dig all the earth away, there will be a potato... Yes!
0:07:22 > 0:07:26There were two quite large potatoes.
0:07:30 > 0:07:35- The carrots are going in the soup. - I'll wash the potatoes clean.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39- It's nice to eat the food you grow, isn't it?- Yes.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41This is going to make a lovely soup.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46I'm putting some potatoes into the pot.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50I love cooking with carrots and potatoes that I grow.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53I think the soup is almost ready.
0:07:53 > 0:07:55It smells very nice.
0:07:58 > 0:08:03BOTH: We had so much fun outside! Bye, Dara!
0:08:03 > 0:08:07Oh, thank you so much! Bye!
0:08:15 > 0:08:18I'm just going to speak to Billy. Back in a second.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Oh!
0:08:20 > 0:08:25- Billy! Have you not found anything you like yet?- No.- Oh!
0:08:25 > 0:08:30This is never going to help me be the best goalkeeper in the world.
0:08:30 > 0:08:33But, you know, fresh vegetables grow from seeds.
0:08:33 > 0:08:38They're very good for you, and they help to keep you healthy.
0:08:38 > 0:08:42And the healthier you are, the better at football you'll be.
0:08:42 > 0:08:47- Really?- And if you want to be the best goalkeeper in the world,
0:08:47 > 0:08:51- you're going to need pretty good eyesight.- Right.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55So if you grow your own carrots, you can eat them...
0:08:55 > 0:08:59- And carrots are good for your eyes! - That's right, Billy!
0:08:59 > 0:09:02I want to grow my own carrots!
0:09:02 > 0:09:06- I found it out. - Found out what, Dara?
0:09:06 > 0:09:10I found out all the cool types of fruit and vegetables you can grow
0:09:10 > 0:09:15- and what you can do with them. - Oh!- Oh! Like carrots!
0:09:15 > 0:09:19Yeah! They're really good for you and they help to make you healthy.
0:09:19 > 0:09:25- And the healthier you are... - The better goalkeeper I am!
0:09:25 > 0:09:26Yes!
0:09:28 > 0:09:32- Shall we see what other fruit and vegetable seeds we can find?- Yes!
0:09:32 > 0:09:33Come on, then.
0:09:35 > 0:09:40Oh, I wonder what's keeping everyone. I've got everything ready.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44I've got some apples, some pears, some carrots,
0:09:44 > 0:09:46I've got a couple of sticks of celery.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50I've got a gorgeous bowl of gooseberries,
0:09:50 > 0:09:54which I grew right here in Big City Park.
0:09:54 > 0:09:57Whoops! Oh-h!
0:09:57 > 0:10:01Well, I'd better be careful not to slip on tho-o-se...!
0:10:01 > 0:10:05HE GRUNTS AND GROANS
0:10:05 > 0:10:06Oh!
0:10:06 > 0:10:11Maybe these healthy vegetable kebabs will be a bit safer.
0:10:14 > 0:10:19Then you pop the carrot seeds into the hole,
0:10:19 > 0:10:23and then you put some soil back on the top, then...
0:10:23 > 0:10:26you give the carrots a little bit of water.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29And like magic,
0:10:29 > 0:10:34- they grow.- Hee-hee-hee! I've just planted some carrots.
0:10:34 > 0:10:38- We've just been planting some carrot seeds.- And onions.
0:10:38 > 0:10:39Oh, that's nice.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41And some potatoes.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43And some potatoes too?
0:10:43 > 0:10:48- All in the one place? - Yep. I'm growing a stew!
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- BONG! - Oh-h!

0:11:16 > 0:11:20That's Ruairi calling us to the Story Circle. Shall we go?
0:11:20 > 0:11:22Yes!
0:11:22 > 0:11:25Maybe we could take him back some of our seeds.
0:11:25 > 0:11:29Let's take him some carrot seeds!
0:11:29 > 0:11:35Great idea, Billy. Come on, let's go. Let's go and see Ruairi.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52Wait for me!
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Hi, Ruairi.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06- Did yous all find the seeds you were looking for?- Yes!
0:12:06 > 0:12:10We even planted some carrot seeds, Ruairi.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Carrots?
0:12:12 > 0:12:16I planted some carrot seeds too, and some onion seeds,
0:12:16 > 0:12:17and some potatoes.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Guess what, Ruairi.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21What's that, Billy?
0:12:21 > 0:12:26In a few months, a healthy stew will be growing in the allotment.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30A stew?! Whoo-hoo!
0:12:30 > 0:12:32RUAIRI LAUGHS
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I can't wait to eat it.
0:12:35 > 0:12:40But in the meantime, tuck into my vegetable kebabs.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43They are yu-ummy!
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Thanks, Ruairi.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52RUAIRI CLEARS HIS THROAT
0:12:52 > 0:12:56All you need Is just a seed
0:12:56 > 0:12:59To start from scratch On your vegetable patch
0:12:59 > 0:13:03They can take time to grow And it might seem slow

0:13:10 > 0:13:12ALL: Yay!
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Thank you.
0:13:14 > 0:13:19- Shall we put our little pot of seeds into Ruairi's treasure chest?- Yes!
0:13:19 > 0:13:23You can go ahead and plant them in there!
