Sharp Objects Hoof and Safety with Nuzzle and Scratch

Across the country, thousands of hopeful safety rangers queue up

to be chosen for the CBeebies' very own safety hoof camp,

but with only two places, we have to choose the best. Who will they be?

Nuzzle and Scratch?

Safety is fun!

# Here we are, Nuzzle and Scratch

# It's by far Nuzzle and Scratch

# Oh, we're alpaca safety rangers

# Investigating dangers

# No two others can match Nuzzle and Scratch

# Nuzzle and Scratch! #

I wonder where my favourite safety rangers can be.

Happy Alpaca Day!

Alpaca Day? That sounds fun.

Oh, it is, because on Alpaca Day,

-all alpacas to have to get tickled and scratched.

-Really?

Yes, yes. That is the rule.

And we also have to be fed with plates of sponge fingers.

-Is that a fact?

-Yes, and we have to be given

loads and loads and loads of rosettes.

Wow, that's quite a day!

If you're an alpaca.

Well, you can be an alpaca too, Miss Mulberry.

-Just stick this here thing on, muzzystache.

-Thank you, boys.

Oh, Miss Mulberry, that really brings out your eyes.

-Oh.

-Yes, it does. Now it's time for the alpaca-laca-laca dance.

Now, with those scissors,

I could make lots more rosettes.

Nuzzle! Move away from the scissors.

I repeat, move away from the scissors.

I think it's time for a safety hoovie.

Come along, boys. That's it.

-Alpaca Day, Alpaca Day...

-All right, Scratch.

-Settle in. Are we ready?

-Yes.

-Off we go.

Hey, cool safety rangers.

Some grown-up things can be very dangerous.

Some of them can be very sharp.

This means they have pointy edges which can hurt if you touch them.

Oh, I see.

These are scissors.

Grown-ups use them for cutting.

But...they are sharp.

Oh!

So no touchy-touchy!

-No.

-No, no.

These are drawing pins.

Grown-ups use them to stick things to a wall or a notice board.

Drawing pins are sharp.

Do not touchy-touchy!

Oh!

This is a knife.

Grown-ups use them to chop up food.

-Yes, they do.

-But knives are sharp.

So no touchy-touchy!

-Oh. Did you see that?

-Yeah, that would hurt.

-Yes, yes.

So, safety rangers, beware.

Never touch sharp objects.

Let a grown-up do it for you.

So, safety rangers, I hope you were watching carefully.

Yes, we were, Miss Mulberry.

Scratch!

Because it's now time for a special Alpaca Day test.

-ALARM RINGS

-A test?

-A test!

It happens every Alpaca Day!

Along with a sponge fingers, herding and endless rosettes.

Oh well, we love Alpaca Day tests.

Yeah, did someone mention herding?

Herd up, sponge fingers. Please give me sponge fingers, Miss Mulberry.

Happy Sponge Finger Day, Miss Mulberry!

So, safety rangers, hoovies on buzzers.

BOTH: Two hoovies coming up.

-Oh, no.

-What's the matter, boys?

Miss Mulberry, these buzzers could be very sharp.

Yes, and we don't want to hurt our precious hoovies.

Let's just think about this for a minute, boys.

Sharp things are pointy, but your buzzers are flat and smooth.

See how smooth this is?

It can't prick your skin.

BUZZERS RING

Oh, buzzing's fun.

They sound cool!

Hey, Scratch, we could do our alpaca-laca dance for this.

Maybe later, boys.

Because now it's time to play Name That Hazard.

And remember, buzz in if you think you spot one.

You can make a loud bzzzz noise too if you think you spot a hazard.

-BUZZER

-Yes, Nuzzle?

Well, that alpaca's ears look very pointy.

-Might they be sharp?

-But then again, the scissors look sharp too, Nuz.

What's an alpaca to do?

Scissors or ears?

Nuzzle, are your ears sharp?

Well, they're fluffy and some might say...cute.

But they're not sharp.

Which means the scissors are sharper.

-Which means...

-No touchy-touchy.

Well done, boys. First hazard found.

-Two more hazards still around.

-Yeah!

-Alpaca Day, groovy hoovies.

-Here we go. No, missed it.

-Try again. Missed it.

-A-hem!

-Oh, oh!

-BUZZER

I know! It's the knife, Nuz. No touchy-touchy.

Well done, Scratch. You've spotted hazard number two.

Now let's see where is hazard number three.

BUZZER

Drawing pins!

Drawing pins are sharp, so no touchy-touchy.

Well done, boys. You've spotted all three sharp hazards. Test over.

-You're through to hoof camp.

-Yeah!

-Groovy hoov... No, you got to do...

-The alpaca-laca dance.

I'll do the buzzer.

I give up.

Hoof camp.

That warm-up gets harder every time.

I know, Scratch. But it's worth it.

Now, boys. Take a look at these scissors.

They have pointy ends and very sharp edges.

You must never touch them, ever.

Well, what would happen if we touched them, Miss Muddleberry?

They would cut your skin, Nuzzle.

And that would make it very sore.

-Oh, we defi-hoove-ly won't touch them. Will we, Nuz?

-No.

But what if we needed to cut something?

-Yeah, like rosettes for Alpaca Day.

-Yeah.

Well, these are very special scissors,

made especially for safety rangers to use.

They are called safety scissors.

Safety scissors don't have sharp edges, so they are safe to use.

Hurray!

But you must remember to have a grown-up to help you,

just to be on the safe side.

Now then, pay attention.

This little beauty is the latest in safety technology.

It's a...

conveyor belt.

Ah, but is it a special Alpaca Day conveyor belt?

It certainly is, Nuzzle.

Listen carefully, safety rangers.

I want you to tell me

which of the objects you're about to see are sharp and not safe,

and which are not sharp and are safe. Got it?

-Er...

-Er...

-Sharp...

And you can play, too.

OK, unleash the conveyor belt.

Here comes the first item.

It's a knife. Is it safe or unsafe?

Well, it's very pointy, so...

Not safe.

That's correct, Nuzzle.

And here's object number two.

-It's a balloon.

-It's a balloon.

-That's unsafe.

-No, Nuz.

The balloon has no sharp edges, so if you touched it, it must be safe.

Really?

Yes, Nuzzle. Balloons can't cut you.

Now, what about these drawing pins.

Oh, those pins are pointy.

That means they are sharp.

Which means we shouldn't touch them.

That's right, safety rangers.

You should stay away from pins.

You've spotted all the hazards.

Very good, very good.

Do you know what, boys?

I feel a safety-time rhyme coming on, and when that happens,

there's only one thing to do.

Oh yes, take it away, Miss Gooseberry.

Knives, scissors and a very sharp pin

These things can prick us and hurt our skin.

Oh yeah, like it!

Hit it, boys!

-No, no, no - not each other.

-Oh.

-Let's just sing it, shall we?

-OK, OK.

Knives, scissors and a very sharp pin

These things can prick us and hurt our skin.

By George, I think they've got it!

Yes, it's time to pick an alpaca.

Which one will it be?

Will it be Nuzzle, the fluffiest alpaca in town,

or will it be Scratch, the scruffiest alpaca in the world?

Let's find out.

-Pick me!

-Pick me!

-Pick me!

-Pick me!

-Pick me!

-Pick me!

I'm going in!

Scratch, your Alpaca Day mission is to leave the safety pen.

Leave the safety pen. Yes, yes?

-And go to my house.

-Oh, your house! Yes, yes?

-And?

-Yes, yes?

-Get it ready for Alpaca Day.

-Hurray!

But first, one last blast of the alpaca-laca dance.

# No, no, no, Alpaca-laca

# No, no, no, Alpaca-laca No, no, no... #

Closio!

Hello, Nuzzle. Come in Nuzzle. I'm in Miss Mulberry's lounge.

Oh, let's have a look. I love what she's done with the cushions.

And Scratch, have you seen any buzzards yet?

Hazards, boys, hazards!

Remember, you're on the lookout for sharp objects.

Oh, yes, yes, yes.

Nuz, I am on the lookout for some sharp...

Whoa, baby! Look at that.

Some lovely coloured card.

This would be the perfect thing

to make a great Alpaca Day rosette with.

But how do I cut this lovely card?

I just don't know.

Ooh, these scissors would be perfect for cutting my lovely card.

But they look a bit pointy.

Scratch calling Nuzzle, Scratch calling Nuzzle.

SNORES

Wakey wakey, Nuzzle! I need your help here.

-Wha...what?

-OK, Nuzzly-Nuz, I've found

some nice pointy scissors and I'm going to cut some card with them.

Are they safe?

Well, these scissors have got a very pointy end, Scratch,

which means they're sharp, so don't touch them.

They sound nasty!

I don't want to hurt my hoovies.

How am I going to do this with the card and cutting and...

Can't do it with my teeth... Miss Mulberry! Miss Mulberry!

Miss Mulberry, please can you cut out an Alpaca Day Rosette,

because I'm not allowed to touchy-touchy scissors, oh, no, no.

Of course, safety ranger.

You've spotted the hazard.

That is certainly worth a safety rosette. Well done!

Miss Mulberry?

-Yes, Scratch?

-Is it ready yet?

Not quite.

-Miss Boysenberry?

-Yes, Scratch?

-Is it ready yet?

-Almost.

Miss Boindyberries?

-Yes, Scratch?

-Is it ready yet?

-Nearly.

-Oh, boring.

Miss Cranberry?

Is... Whoa!

Decorations!

Wow, we're going to have lots of decorations

on Alpaca Day, Miss Mulberry.

They'll really brighten the place up.

What we need to do is pin them up.

Hm. Oh, some lovely drawing pins.

Oh, pin. That means that they are...

-Hey, Nuz?

-Ring a bell, what, where?

What did the safety rhyme say about pins?

Oh, knives, scissors and a very sharp pin...

These things can prick us and hurt our skin.

Pins can prick our skin. They must be sharp.

So I'd better not touch them.

Miss Mulberry! Miss Mulberry!

Can you hang the decorations up for me?

-Thanks very much, Miss Mulberry, you're very kind.

-OK, Scratch.

Ohh!

Now it's time to make a special sandwich, for it is Alpaca Day.

OK, got my lettuce.

Hello, lettuce. Got my tomatoes.

Check. Hello, tomatoes.

I just need to cut them up.

Sorry, guys.

Oh, look. A knife. I could use that.

It can cut things with its pointy edge.

Do you think a knife is safe to use?

A knife has a sharp edge, which means it's...not safe.

So no touchy-touchy.

What I need is a grown-up to help me.

A grown-up, a grown-up...

Miss Mulberry!

Miss Mulberry,

I can't touch the knife because it's sharpy-sharpy point-point.

So could you make an Alpaca Day sandwich, please?

Well done, Scratch. You've spotted all three hazards.

Yeah, now do the chop-chops, Moustachio Face.

Great. Chop, chop, chop.

Chop, chop, chop.

Alpaca day is so exciting!

Brrrrrrr! Sandwiches, chop, chop, chop.

You're very good at chopping. Chop, chop.

-So

-I

-didn't touch it. I got Miss Mulberry to do it for me.

Yeah, always ask an adult.

Well done, safety rangers.

You spotted all the sharp hazards.

Mission accomplished.

And you, Miss Mulberry. You got everything ready for Alpaca Day.

-So I did.

-Oh, there's just one thing, Miss Mulberry.

Why are you wearing a moustache?

You told me it was traditional on Alpaca Day.

-THEY LAUGH

-There's no such thing as Alpaca Day, is there?

No!

It was just a way to get lots of rosettes,

-sponge fingers and petting.

-Maybe!

-Oh, well,

I suppose, as you completed the mission

and you found those sharp hazards,

-you can still have your safety rosettes.

-Yay!

After all, every day is Alpaca Day with Nuzzle and Scratch.

Plus, I rather like this moustache!

A lady with a moustache! A lady!

It's a lady with a moustache! That's funny!

She's a woman and she's got a moustache!
