Eggy Head Bing

-Come on, Flop!

-Coming, Bing.

-Coco!

-Hi, Bing.

-Hello, Charlie.

-Boo-boo-ba-droop!

-Hi, Bing.

-Hello, Pando.

-Hello, Bing!

-Sula!

Someone's in a hurry.

-Bing!

-You all right, Bing?

-Yeah.

-He's OK.

Round the corner, not far away, Bing is making eggy heads today.

THEY LAUGH AND PLAY

OK, everybody. Who's ready to make something special today?

-Oh, me!

-I do!

-I want to make something special!

-What's that, Amma?

-Oh, it's an eggy head.

-I want one.

-Me too!

-And me!

-You're all going to make one.

-Oh, is that grass?

-No, Pando.

-It's called cress.

-Oh.

-You can eat it.

-Please! Yes, please!

Flop's giving eggy head a haircut.

It's tasty.

Try some.

Mm, yummy.

-I like it!

-I like it, too.

-Bleurgh! Yuck.

-Pando!

All right now, to make your own,

first you need to give your egg a face.

OK. I'm making the happy one.

-He's called Eggy.

-I'm going to call you Shelley.

Mine is a monster, he's called ARGH!

Mine is called Sula because she looks just like me.

Why hasn't Eggy got hair, Flop?

It won't start growing until you plant the seeds, Bing.

-Oh!

-Here, a bowl of wet cotton wool to pop inside your eggy head.

-That's it.

-Here we go.

-In you go.

-OK. Ready to grow some hair?

Hold out your hands.

-But that's seeds.

-They are, Sula. And they go inside the eggs.

Yeah, these little seeds have a lot of work to do.

It takes time for them to grow into eggy hair.

There you go, seeds. You are going to grow nice hair.

It's not growing, Amma.

-It doesn't grow straight away, Bing.

-Oh.

It'll take a week for your eggy heads to grow

hair as long as mine one had.

-How long is a week?

-It's seven sleeps.

Seven! But that's a long time, Amma.

Yes, they need two things to help them grow.

Lots of light and water.

So, we're going to put them here, on the windowsill,

and we'll water them every day.

I don't want to wait seven sleeps.

-Well, you'll see a difference after just one sleep, Bing.

-Oh.

OK, eggy head makers. It's playtime now.

-Woo-hoo!

-Yay!

I know...

BING SNORES

Are you OK, Bing?

I'm doing a sleep so Eggy's hair will grow.

Let's go and look!

Eggy!

-Oh.

-You have to wait for the hair to grow, Bing.

-But I've had one sleep.

Oh, Bing.

I know it's hard to wait, but it has to be a proper sleep, at home.

-Amma, can I go outside, please?

-That's a good idea.

-Come on, Bing.

-Would you like cup of teas, Amma and Flop?

-Mm!

AMMA AND FLOP: Oh, yes, please!

Come with me, Eggy. There's lots of light out here.

Woooooo! Yay-hey-hey!

Oh, Eggy, you can have some water.

What are you doing, Bing?

Amma said Eggy needs lots of water to grow hair.

-So, I'm going to make it grow.

-Oh!

-There's water coming, Eggy.

Oh, no!

Eggy!

Noooo!

-Oh!

-Is Eggy OK?

-Oh, dear.

-Oh, no. Bing's broken his egg.

-How did that happen?

-I wanted to make Eggy grow faster.

-Oh!

-Aw!

-Oh, Bing.

-Poor Eggy.

I gived him lots of water with the hose.

-Oh, maybe you gave him too much water, Bing.

-Yes.

Can we fix him, Amma?

Oh, I'm sorry, Bing. He's too broken to be fixed.

Eggy's broken, but the seeds aren't.

Can Bing make another one, Amma?

-Would you like that, Bing?

-Yes, please.

-OK.

THEY CHEER

-Come on, then.

-Come on, Bing!

-Come on!

-Here.

-I haven't got a shell.

-Well, you could use this one, Bing.

-Oh!

-You could draw on the other side.

-Yes!

Look, Flop. It's Eggy!

Ah! Hello, Eggy.

Here's some seeds, Eggy.

Do you want to put Eggy with the other eggy heads?

-Yes.

-Come on, then.

There you are, Eggy. With all your friends.

What's that, Amma?

Well, let's see. It's a chart

to show how many days the eggy heads will take to grow.

ALL: Oh!

You can colour one egg every day.

Yes! Do the first picture, Bing.

There! See you tomorrow, Eggy.

Good for you, Bing Bunny!

THEY ALL LAUGH

I makes a eggy head called Eggy.

But I didn't want to wait seven sleeps for him to get green hair.

So I gived Eggy too much water with the hose and he got all broken.

And I didn't want that to happen.

But I maked a new Eggy, and this time I waited seven sleeps

till he got hair.

Having to wait, it's a Bing Thing!

Look at his hair!
