0:00:13 > 0:00:15# Gather round, one and all
0:00:16 > 0:00:20# You gotta answer the call
0:00:21 > 0:00:23# Listen up, look around you

0:01:09 > 0:01:11Scrapbook!!
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Today, we'll find out what Green Balloon Club members are doing.
0:01:16 > 0:01:20First, the chant. Let's join in with Nieve and Tara.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23We love animals, plants and birds
0:01:23 > 0:01:26We love snails and slugs
0:01:26 > 0:01:31Large and small, we love them all And we never, ever step on bugs
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Cos we are the Green Balloon Club!
0:01:33 > 0:01:37I've found two woodlice. I'll see which is fastest.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39On your marks. Get set.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Go!
0:01:41 > 0:01:46Oh, that one's really fast. Probably because it has 14 legs.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49They're both going at the same speed now.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Oops, this one's going the wrong way.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Ooh, that one just took the lead.
0:01:55 > 0:01:56Come on, come on!
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Oh...
0:01:59 > 0:02:04Ooh! That was nearly a draw, but I think this one just won.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Well done, Woody the woodlouse.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09HUGE CROWD CHEERS
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Let's see if any of our Green Balloon Club members
0:02:12 > 0:02:15can show us the wildlife that they have.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Look, here's Elsie, Malaya and Jasmine.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20They live near a city farm.
0:02:20 > 0:02:25There must be lots of wildlife where they live. Let's look... Hi!
0:02:26 > 0:02:28ALL: Hello!
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- I'm Jasmine.- I'm Elsie.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32I'm Malaya.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Today, we've come to help out at our local city farm.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39There are lots of things to see and do here.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Look at all the animals.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46We've been given a very special job.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49Come on, let's go and find out what it is.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Today, we'll be helping to care for
0:03:05 > 0:03:09- the piglets that live here. - This is Claire.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13- Hello!- Her job is to look after all the farm animals.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17- She is going to show us what to do. - We're going to groom the pigs.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Everyone grab a brush each.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Eight down, lots to go!
0:03:40 > 0:03:43He's fallen asleep, that one.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Why do they like being scratched?
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Because pigs suffer from dry skin,
0:03:53 > 0:03:56so when you scratch him, he feels great.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00How old are they?
0:04:01 > 0:04:04These pigs are about five months old.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07What do they like to eat?
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Well, pigs like to eat anything.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11They're very greedy.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14Why are their noses shaped like that?
0:04:14 > 0:04:17They've got noses, look, that are nice and round.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20See they've got this little bit of lip here.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24It's so they can dig in the soil, to look for their food.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28- So they can sense it? - Yes, they have really strong noses.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31They can smell food from miles away.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34We've had a lovely time visiting the piglets.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38Thanks for visiting us. See you again soon!
0:04:38 > 0:04:40ALL: Bye!
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Which is your favourite rabbit at the rabbit show?
0:04:46 > 0:04:49This rabbit here is a Dalmatian rabbit.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53It looks sort of like a Dalmatian dog.
0:04:53 > 0:04:54Or maybe a cow.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59My favourite is this one. It looks so cute.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Its ears touched the floor!
0:05:09 > 0:05:12It's stroking its tail...on its own.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18I think the rabbit here looks like my rabbit at home,
0:05:18 > 0:05:20as it's white underneath.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23He really wants to eat some food.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26He doesn't want any water, just some food.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31I like him quite a lot, because he's nice and fuzzy, like his tail.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35I like his pink eyes.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38These ones look like they've got boots on.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41It's got pink ears.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Some rabbits have a lot of fur on there,
0:05:47 > 0:05:49on the back of their ears.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51This one doesn't really have much fur,
0:05:51 > 0:05:54that's why you can see the veins.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Can you wiggle your nose?
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Rabbits move their noses a bit like this.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Now, shall we see what the Green Team are up to?
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Let's see, who have we got here?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Oh, look, here's Cat and Skipper.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Wonder what they're doing?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Hi, me and Skipper are going doggy-dancing again.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35We can't wait, can we, Skipper?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Come on, let's go!
0:06:44 > 0:06:47- Hi, Sue! Hi, Chester!- Hello, Cat!
0:06:47 > 0:06:51- We've been practising your new move. Like to see?- Please.
0:06:51 > 0:06:56OK, the dog's going to go that way and you go round the other way.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Would you like to have a go?
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Go round.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07- It's not easy to go the opposite way of her.- It takes a bit of practise.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Keep going opposite. Meet as you go round.
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- Good girl!- Good girl, Skipper!
0:07:15 > 0:07:17Well done! Looking really good.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20I was wondering about a move I want to use.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Would you like to explain it to me?
0:07:22 > 0:07:25I do a crab and Skipper goes underneath.
0:07:25 > 0:07:26Want to show me?
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- Goodness me. - And he should go underneath.
0:07:32 > 0:07:37If you do the crab again and we'll see if Skipper will go through.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43OK, Skipper. Go round.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Both legs. Go round.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49All the way through.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52She likes one leg, here. All the way through.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Oh! Cheating!
0:07:54 > 0:07:56Go round...and through.
0:07:56 > 0:07:57Good girl!
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Well done, Cat! One more go?
0:08:02 > 0:08:03Yes.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Go round...and through.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Good girl!- Good girl, Skipper!
0:08:10 > 0:08:13Keep practising that. It would make a great finale.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Well done, Skipper. You've been so brilliant.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19- Would you like to reward Skipper? - Yes, please.
0:08:19 > 0:08:24- Shall we play the hide and seek game?- OK.- You hide Chester's toy.
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Off you go.
0:08:28 > 0:08:29Hide your eyes.
0:08:29 > 0:08:30Good boy.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39- All done? All done?- Yes.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41OK, find it.
0:08:50 > 0:08:51SUE CHEERS
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Good boy!
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Lovely. Well done, Chester!
0:08:56 > 0:08:58- Let's give Skipper a go with a treat.- OK.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01Hide her eyes while I hide the treat.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09OK.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14She might need a little bit of a hand.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Come on.- Yes, go on, Skipper, you can find it.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Go and give her a hand. Tip the cone for her.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24- Have a look and see if it's there. - Yes!- Yes!
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Down there, Skipper. Look.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30Well done. Good girl!
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- I think she's enjoying that. - She deserved that.
0:09:37 > 0:09:41# Skipper's in her basket lying by the window
0:09:41 > 0:09:44# Dreaming about all the things she'd like to do
0:09:44 > 0:09:47# Running in the field She's chasing after Frisbees.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50# She's in the gang A lovely doggy sidekick

0:10:18 > 0:10:21# Pricks up her ears, sniffing out a squirrel trail
0:10:21 > 0:10:24# She's running so fast Lose her in the long grass
0:10:24 > 0:10:27# She hears us whistle Comes running with a friendly bark

0:11:51 > 0:11:59# It's a dog's li-i-i-i-ife. #
0:12:03 > 0:12:06This is Beanie. She's my dog.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Paw. Good girl!
0:12:09 > 0:12:14I'm so lucky to have her, but there are lots of different pets I'd like,
0:12:14 > 0:12:18like...a big spider...or a snake...
0:12:18 > 0:12:23or even a crocodile, but I couldn't look after them at my house.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27Some of our Club members have found the perfect answer to that.
0:12:27 > 0:12:32William and Monty will tell us how they got some amazing animals.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34BOTH: Hello!
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Today we are here at our wildlife centre
0:12:37 > 0:12:40to look at all the animals who live here.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46My name's William and this is my friend Monty.
0:12:46 > 0:12:51We sponsor animals here, which means we don't own them
0:12:51 > 0:12:53but we look after them.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57This is Stumpy, the type of lizard called a bearded dragon.
0:12:57 > 0:13:01- How old is Stumpy?- Four years old.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- The same age as me. - He's called Stumpy
0:13:04 > 0:13:06because, when he was a baby,
0:13:06 > 0:13:10he got a piece of his tail chopped off but it's fine now.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15He feels like silky and pointy.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19The spiky bits just don't feel very sharp.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22What does Stumpy have to eat?
0:13:22 > 0:13:28He likes eating fruit and veg, cuttlefish and insects.
0:13:30 > 0:13:36- He likes sitting in the sun most of the day.- He's lazy!
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Bearded dragons can grow really big.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42They need a lot of looking after and a big place to stay.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45This is why I have adopted Stumpy.
0:13:49 > 0:13:53This is Kiefer. I sponsor him here.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57- How long have you sponsored him for?- A year.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02It's nearly my birthday and I'm going to sponsor him again.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06It feels bumpy and smooth.
0:14:06 > 0:14:10He's got a neck like a giraffe.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14He eats all kinds of grass and all kinds of leaves.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17- How old is he?- He's seven years old.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22I think tortoises are cool, especially Kiefer. He's well big.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27We hope you enjoyed looking at the animals we sponsor.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29BOTH: Bye!
0:14:29 > 0:14:33Bye. Thanks for showing us your amazing animals.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Do you know Lily-Rose has grown a sunflower
0:14:36 > 0:14:39that's twice the size of her? She's an amazing gardener.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Let's see if we can see it.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47Yes, here she is. Hi, Lily-Rose.
0:14:47 > 0:14:49What are you doing in your garden today?
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Hello, I'm Lily-Rose. Welcome to my garden.
0:14:58 > 0:15:02Everything's grown really tall this year.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Come and see what's growing.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11Wow, I love these flowers. These are called anemones.
0:15:11 > 0:15:15Not sea anemones. Anemones. They live in the garden.
0:15:15 > 0:15:22I think they're taller than me, but wait till you see what's over here.
0:15:23 > 0:15:29Wow, look at my sunflower! It's grown since I last saw it.
0:15:29 > 0:15:34Wow, but look at these ones. They're ginormous!
0:15:35 > 0:15:40Now come look at the other sunflower.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44This flower's dead
0:15:44 > 0:15:47but the other day, I saw a blue tit
0:15:47 > 0:15:52hanging off the edge here, pecking at these seeds inside.
0:15:52 > 0:15:55I'm going to get some seeds out to help the birds.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00I'm going to bend the head and then I'm going to snip it.
0:16:00 > 0:16:02Ohh...
0:16:03 > 0:16:06I think it's loose. It's time to cut.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08I just need to...
0:16:08 > 0:16:10cut through...
0:16:10 > 0:16:15under there, and do a little snip.
0:16:15 > 0:16:16Ohh!
0:16:18 > 0:16:21This thing is very stiff.
0:16:23 > 0:16:24There, done it!
0:16:24 > 0:16:28Mmm. Now I'm going to get the seeds out.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32It looks a bit like a watering can. And look -
0:16:32 > 0:16:37you can see where the seeds came out right in there.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Let me get them out.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44This is quite difficult.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48That's a big one.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Three...
0:16:56 > 0:16:58This is taking forever,
0:16:58 > 0:17:01but I've always got another idea.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Come on!
0:17:05 > 0:17:10Here you are, birds - lovely sunflower seeds all for you.
0:17:12 > 0:17:17I'm going to pop the rest of the sunflower seeds up here.
0:17:17 > 0:17:22Let's go and watch quietly for them. Ssh!
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Look! There's a robin!
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Thanks for coming to see my garden today. Bye!
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Curled in her basket, Skipper is dreaming.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05She's dreaming of bright-coloured feathers today.
0:18:06 > 0:18:10Then, in a twinkle, with a wag of her tail,
0:18:10 > 0:18:14she's off on adventures in lands far, far away.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Wey-hey! I'm in the rainforest.
0:18:34 > 0:18:39Barking bones, what was that?! A flying rainbow?
0:18:41 > 0:18:43Oh, it's a parrot!
0:18:45 > 0:18:48And what beautiful feathers.
0:18:53 > 0:18:59Skipper's discovered the rainforest parrots of South America.
0:19:01 > 0:19:04What are they talking about?
0:19:04 > 0:19:07It's all squawks to me,
0:19:07 > 0:19:12but I think they're having a parrot party. Hooray!
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Move up! Make room for me!
0:19:15 > 0:19:19Here I come. I want to be a parrot too.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22I love parties!
0:19:22 > 0:19:26First, we must get dressed into our smartest feathers.
0:19:26 > 0:19:30Don't take too long!
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Give them a good preen, but chop-chop,
0:19:33 > 0:19:35it's party time soon!
0:19:35 > 0:19:38How do I look?
0:19:39 > 0:19:45It's time for the flying rainbow dance. Come on, everybody!
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Wait for me! Here I come!
0:19:50 > 0:19:52This is fantastic.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55How am I doing?
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Show us your best moves!
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Lift your foot and flap your wings...
0:20:02 > 0:20:05and put your beaks together!
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Join in, everybody!
0:20:12 > 0:20:15Come on down, it's a parrot party!
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Now for a graceful landing.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Whee-ee-ee!
0:20:25 > 0:20:27All the parrots have gathered
0:20:27 > 0:20:31at their favourite place on the riverbank.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35So what do we do now? Any ideas?
0:20:37 > 0:20:41Oh, so that's it?
0:20:41 > 0:20:43The party's over?
0:20:43 > 0:20:46I was starting to enjoy being a parrot dog.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Squawk! Woof! Woof!
0:20:50 > 0:20:53The adventure is over. Skip is back in her bed,
0:20:53 > 0:20:57with visions of feathers flying round in her head.
0:20:57 > 0:21:02They'll never believe the things I have seen. Did it really happen...
0:21:02 > 0:21:05or was it a dream?
0:21:07 > 0:21:12Wow, Skipper. I'd love to be able to fly. It looks such fun.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14I think it's time for me to go now
0:21:14 > 0:21:18but there's just enough time to do one more thing.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29# See the leaves in a spin
0:21:29 > 0:21:33# Tossed and blown by the wind
0:21:33 > 0:21:39# It's like they're waving summer goodbye
0:21:41 > 0:21:46# And the colours change to golden brown
0:21:46 > 0:21:50# Flying high as they leave the ground
0:21:50 > 0:21:56# Till they're just a speck against the sky
0:21:56 > 0:22:01# I see them flying
0:22:01 > 0:22:06# Watch them flying
0:22:06 > 0:22:13# To places that are wonderful and new
0:22:13 > 0:22:17# To see them flying
0:22:17 > 0:22:24# Is just like angels on the wing
0:22:26 > 0:22:33# Can we come flying too?
0:22:34 > 0:22:38# See the birds, how high they swoop
0:22:38 > 0:22:42# Full of grace, they loop the loop
0:22:42 > 0:22:49# Living free so high above the crowd
0:22:49 > 0:22:55# And they're making circles in the sky
0:22:55 > 0:22:58# Calling out "it's migration time"
0:22:58 > 0:23:05# I wish that I could soar beyond the clouds
0:23:05 > 0:23:10# You see me flying
0:23:10 > 0:23:15# Watch me flying
0:23:15 > 0:23:22# In circles just like life that will renew
0:23:22 > 0:23:28# The birds are flying away
0:23:28 > 0:23:33# Returning in the spring
0:23:34 > 0:23:39# Yes, they'll come flying
0:23:39 > 0:23:43# Sun will be shining
0:23:43 > 0:23:49# We'll all go flying
0:23:49 > 0:23:55# Too. #
