0:00:36 > 0:00:37disappear.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42Oh! Gone. He-he-he!
0:00:42 > 0:00:44You just threw it over your shoulder.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48It still made it disappear, didn't it? He-he!

0:01:00 > 0:01:03And what are you pair laughing at?
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Ruairi was just showing me a trick.
0:01:06 > 0:01:10He can make things disappear.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13Well, maybe you can help me with this, then, Ruairi.
0:01:13 > 0:01:17What have you done to your top, May?
0:01:17 > 0:01:18It's tiny! Ha-ha!
0:01:18 > 0:01:22- I shrunk it in the wash, Billy. - I can't help you there.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25That's so small it wouldn't fit wee Billy!
0:01:28 > 0:01:31I'm not that small.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Of course you are,
0:01:32 > 0:01:36but you wouldn't want to be too big, Billy, would you?
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- Oh, here's Dara and her friends, now! - Hi, Dara.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40Hi, May!
0:01:40 > 0:01:45- Hi, Chloe!- Hi, May! - Hi, Max!- Hi!- Hi, Emily.- Hi!
0:01:45 > 0:01:48Are you looking forward to having fun in Big City Park?
0:01:48 > 0:01:50ALL: Yes!
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Big City Park!
0:01:53 > 0:01:54Here we are!
0:01:56 > 0:01:58A bag for Chloe.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01And a bag for Max.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04And a bag for Emily.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07And if we find anything really special,
0:02:07 > 0:02:10maybe we could keep it in Ruairi's treasure chest?
0:02:10 > 0:02:15Yes, of course! There's plenty of room in here for special things -
0:02:15 > 0:02:16big or small.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19A bit like me.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Oh, Billy. Are you OK?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27I've just realised
0:02:27 > 0:02:29I'm the smallest person here.
0:02:31 > 0:02:34Billy, it's OK to be small.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37We all come in different shapes and sizes.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40But I want to be as big as everyone else, May.
0:02:40 > 0:02:41I want to grow.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44But you are growing.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46Just a little bit at a time.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48You might not even notice.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Oh.- That's right, Billy.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Do you remember the time I measured you and Dara
0:02:53 > 0:02:57against that tree last year? I bet if we measured you again,
0:02:57 > 0:03:01you'd have grown a badger's centimetre. Or two!
0:03:01 > 0:03:02I would?
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Yes, yes!
0:03:04 > 0:03:08I...er...just have to remember where the tree is. Hmm.
0:03:08 > 0:03:12In the park, things are growing all the time.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Shall we go and find some things? - ALL: Yes!
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Bags on shoulders.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19ALL: Bags on shoulders!
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Boots on toes.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22ALL: Boots on toes!
0:03:22 > 0:03:25It's exploring time, so...
0:03:25 > 0:03:29ALL: Off we go!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Come on, then!
0:03:56 > 0:03:58- Boo!- Oh!- He-he-he!
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Billy!
0:04:00 > 0:04:03I found something that's growing, Dara -
0:04:03 > 0:04:04this bush.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06The bush is growing.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08That is because it is spring
0:04:08 > 0:04:12and as the weather gets warmer and there is more sun...
0:04:12 > 0:04:13..everything grows.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Lots of things start to grow. Right.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20Hey, maybe I'll start to grow, too, now it's spring, May.
0:04:20 > 0:04:21Maybe you will, Billy.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24What have we seen here that grows?
0:04:24 > 0:04:25- Trees.- Flowers.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Will we go and have a look?
0:04:27 > 0:04:28ALL: Yes!
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Let's go. Come on, Billy and Dara.
0:04:32 > 0:04:36Max, what do you see growing on this tree?
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Leaves and little flowers.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40All I can see is wood.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Not there, Billy.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44There.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- Oh, yeah!- Some of the leaves
0:04:47 > 0:04:51are just little buds at the moment, but they will grow bigger
0:04:51 > 0:04:53until the tree is all red and green.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56How do the leaves grow, May?
0:04:56 > 0:04:59They need sunlight from above and water from below.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02The tree's roots suck up the water.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03That's how they grow.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Let's see some more trees. Let's go.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10- Coming, Billy? - Eh, I don't think so, Dara.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11I'm down here
0:05:11 > 0:05:16and the leaves are way up there. I can't reach them.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19Being small is no fun, at all.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21What fun can you have when you are small?
0:05:21 > 0:05:26- Dara, I think we might need some help to find out.- On my way, May!
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Shall we go and see what else we can find?
0:05:29 > 0:05:32- Mm, OK.- Come on, then!
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Hmm, let's see now...
0:05:35 > 0:05:37No, it's not that one, that's too brown.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41- Hi, Ruairi!- Ah! Dara!
0:05:41 > 0:05:43Just the fox I was hoping to see.
0:05:43 > 0:05:48- Could you help? I'm looking for a tree that I lost.- I don't have time.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52I need to find out how my friends have fun, when they're small.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56I once had the best time of my life with some very small people.
0:05:56 > 0:06:01About this size, they were. I helped them make a boat out of an oak leaf.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Got it! See you, Ruairi!
0:06:03 > 0:06:05He-he!
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Now, where was I?
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Oh, yeah! Trees...
0:06:11 > 0:06:15Hmm... Right.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Let me see. Hmm...
0:06:20 > 0:06:22Here we go!
0:06:22 > 0:06:23"We can do fun things
0:06:23 > 0:06:25"when we are small"!
0:06:25 > 0:06:27That's it! Ha-ha-ha!
0:06:27 > 0:06:30"From the fastest fox in Big City Park,
0:06:30 > 0:06:35"to the friendliest friends in the Big City. Tell us what you know!"
0:06:36 > 0:06:40- I love playing outside. - I love playing outside, too.
0:06:44 > 0:06:45Through the hole!
0:06:49 > 0:06:51This is a very tiny route.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54I love going into small places.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58BOTH: I'm walking through this.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08I'm definitely going to make it to the top.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10I'll go up this ladder.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I nearly am at the top!
0:07:15 > 0:07:18This is the most highest place.
0:07:18 > 0:07:19Look, look.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- Look there. - BOTH: Hi, Mum!
0:07:21 > 0:07:25- I'm jumping into this hole. - Sure you can fit through?
0:07:25 > 0:07:27We're going down the hole now!
0:07:27 > 0:07:30THEY LAUGH
0:07:32 > 0:07:34BOTH: Whee!
0:07:37 > 0:07:38Yeah!
0:07:39 > 0:07:41DARA LAUGHS
0:07:41 > 0:07:43I just went through the hole now.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48We're hiding under the slide.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51- MUM: Finn? Mary Jane?- Yes?
0:07:51 > 0:07:52We can see you!
0:07:55 > 0:07:58It's fun playing outside.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Do you like playing outside? - BOTH: We do!
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Oh, thank you! Bye!
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Big City Park!
0:08:11 > 0:08:15- What are you looking for, Billy? - A watering can, May.
0:08:15 > 0:08:19Maybe, if I have lots of sun and some water, like these leaves,
0:08:19 > 0:08:21I'll grow, too.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Billy, guess what I found out?- What?
0:08:25 > 0:08:27- You can do lots when you are small. - Oh!
0:08:27 > 0:08:29My friends in the city
0:08:29 > 0:08:32can crawl under things and jump through things.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36- They're good at hiding, too.- We'd better go, then!- Where to, Billy?
0:08:36 > 0:08:40Well, to play hide and seek - before I grow any bigger! Ha!
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- I'll count!- And we'll hide!
0:08:45 > 0:08:47One, two, three,
0:08:47 > 0:08:50four, five, six,
0:08:50 > 0:08:51seven, eight,
0:08:51 > 0:08:53nine, ten.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55Well, if that's not
0:08:55 > 0:09:00the finest-looking plate of blueberry muffins I've ever seen.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01He-he-he.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04I wonder who made those? Oh, yes!
0:09:04 > 0:09:06It was me!
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Ha-ha-ha-ha!
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Found you! Ha-ha!
0:09:14 > 0:09:16I could see the top of your head, May.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19You're much bigger than everyone else.
0:09:19 > 0:09:20Who are we missing?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22ALL: Billy!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24Let's go and find him.
0:09:26 > 0:09:27Sshh!
0:09:28 > 0:09:29Sshh!
0:09:31 > 0:09:32Sshh!
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Sshh!
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Ssh... Oh.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42- Sshh!- He must be in a really good hiding place.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45I can't see him anywhere(!)
0:09:47 > 0:09:49- Hello, Billy!- A-ha-ha!
0:09:49 > 0:09:51You found me! Ha-ha-ha!
0:09:51 > 0:09:56- How did you get in there, Billy? - It's easy when you're small, Dara.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58And guess what? I found some
0:09:58 > 0:10:02- friends who are even smaller than me!- They are tiny.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04- May?- Mm.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05I found this shell, too.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Wow, let me see.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10This is a snail's shell.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13The snail lives inside the shell.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16How small would you have to be to fit inside?
0:10:16 > 0:10:19As small as your little finger, I would think.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22- Small as your little finger? - Smaller, actually.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Even I couldn't fit in there, May!
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Oh, they should be here by now.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Maybe they got carried away with all the stuff growing here.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I'll give them a call.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Well, would you look at that!
0:10:44 > 0:10:47That's where I measured Billy and Dara -
0:10:47 > 0:10:49against my own tree!
0:11:04 > 0:11:05DONG!
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Argh!
0:11:06 > 0:11:10- Oh!- That's Ruairi calling us to the Story Circle.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Shall we go?
0:11:11 > 0:11:13ALL: Yeah!
0:11:13 > 0:11:14DONG!
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Oh, why do I always forget the racket that makes? Oh!
0:11:35 > 0:11:37I have a special treat for you two.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40I found the tree where I measured you last year.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Ah!- Come on over.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Let's see if you've sprouted.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Ho-ho! Measure me, measure me!
0:11:49 > 0:11:52OK. Up against the tree.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Let's see...
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Well, would you look at that!
0:11:57 > 0:11:58You've grown!
0:11:58 > 0:12:01You'll soon be catching up with young Dara.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05- I don't want to grow too big. - Well, why is that, Billy?- Ha!
0:12:08 > 0:12:13Because then I'll be rubbish at hide and seek - like May!
0:12:13 > 0:12:14Thanks, Billy(!)
0:12:14 > 0:12:15LAUGHTER
0:12:15 > 0:12:20- You must be hungry after all that running. Tuck in!- Thanks, Ruairi!
0:12:25 > 0:12:26Ahem-ahem-ahem.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31Now, Billy didn't like being small, he thought he wasn't growing at all,
0:12:31 > 0:12:35but with his friends, he learned to see, that everything grows,
0:12:35 > 0:12:37like you and me.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40Some things are big, some are small,
0:12:40 > 0:12:43some things, you can hardly see at all
0:12:43 > 0:12:46but on his journey, he learned today,
0:12:46 > 0:12:48no matter what size you are,
0:12:48 > 0:12:51you can have fun on the way.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52APPLAUSE
0:12:52 > 0:12:54Well done, Ruairi!
0:12:59 > 0:13:03Shall we put our snail shell in Ruairi's treasure chest?
0:13:03 > 0:13:05ALL: Yes!
0:13:05 > 0:13:06In you go!
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Safe and sound!
0:13:08 > 0:13:13I'm really glad the snail shell is in the treasure chest, Ruairi.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17- Why is that, Billy? - If a snail ever needs a house,
0:13:17 > 0:13:21- they'll know where to find one! - Ha-ha-ha!
0:13:21 > 0:13:24It's been another fun day in Big City Park.
0:13:24 > 0:13:29- Join us again soon.- Who wants to see one of my famous magic tricks?
0:13:29 > 0:13:32ALL: Me!
0:13:32 > 0:13:35This is called The Famous Disappearing Twig Trick.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Watch closely.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40TAPPING
