-Phew.

-I am so hot.

-Yes me too.

You know, fanning myself with my hands isn't big enough.

Ooh, I could try the newspaper.

Good idea. I'm going to try this book.

-Oh, yes, this is definitely working.

-This isn't so good.

-Oh, try the newspaper.

-Ah, yeah, that's really good.

It's good, isn't it?

You know what, Sid? I think we should go outside.

Brilliant idea. But I'm going to get a nice, cold drink first.

-Do you want one?

-Yes, please. With some ice.

-Ice. Anything else?

-And some lemon.

Two ice-cold drinks with lemon coming up.

Yes, please. And we must remember the sun cream.

-Definitely. I'll get those drinks.

-Hold on, Sid.

-It's time!

-Great!

-It's time to play.

-Whose turn is it today?

-Let it be me.

-Let it be me.

-Me!

-Me!

-Me!

-# Let it be me Let it be me.

-Me!

-# Let it be me

-Let it be me

# It's me!

# Yes, it's me, yes, it's me

# I'm really, really, really, really happy

# It's me. #

Look, there's the dressing-up room.

# Let's play. #

This is really exciting.

So what do you think we're playing today?

So this time I've got on a riding helmet,

a Christmas elf outfit

and a pair of fluffy bird slippers.

This can't be right. Let's try again.

So what have we got on this time?

We've got on a helmet, some lovely warm gloves

and a pair of ski boots.

So what are we playing today?

Yes, of course, we're going to be skiers

and we're going to ski down snowy slopes!

So what do we need to know?

'Skiing is a way of travelling on snow.

'Skiers attach skis to special ski boots

'and slide downhill on the snow.

'To reach the top of the mountain, skiers have to use the ski lift.

'The ski route down a mountain is known as a piste.

'Pistes are colour-coded.

'The most difficult to ski down are black

'and the easiest are green.

'A good way to stop is to spread your skis in a pizza slice shape,

'with the point of the pizza slice in front of you.

'This slows you down and helps you stop.'

A pizza slice shape? Oh, well.

And that's what we need to remember and do we need anything else?

A carrot?! I wonder what I'm going to need that for.

Oh, well. I'm sure I'll find out.

OK, we've got everything we need. Let's go.

-Hey, Sid.

-Oh, there you are.

Oh, thank you. Oh, lovely and cool.

You look like you need it in all that gear.

-Are you going to be an astronaut?

-No, I'm going to be a skier! Whoosh!

Whoosh. So where are your skis?

I don't know, but I'm sure they'll show up somewhere.

Thanks for the drink. And I'll see you later!

-OK, we'll go out again when you come back.

-Absolutely, bye.

-Bye.

Come on, let's play skiers.

Ooooh.

Woohoo.

# Let's play. #

So where am I?

Oh, wow. Look at all this lovely snow.

Looks like the perfect place to play skiers.

If I'm a skier, I'm going to need to get myself some skis.

Ah-ha. Maybe I can get myself some over there.

Let's find out.

Whoa!

Oh. Sorry, I was not looking. Your name is...?

-Rebecca.

-Ah, Rebecca, great to meet you.

-I am Jean-Claude.

-Nice to meet you too, Jean-Claude.

Looks like you know what you're doing on a pair of skis.

Thank you, and I can tell by your outfit that you are a skier too, no?

Yes, I am. Sorry...you've got a little something on your face,

-you might want to wipe it off?

-What, this, the sun block?

Sun block? In the snow?!

Yes, it is cold up here on the mountain,

but the sun is still very strong.

So you have to protect your skin from getting burnt.

-But you knew this, no?

-Yeah, of course I knew that.

Course you did. Here. You can borrow one of mine.

I will do this for you.

Now. You keep this.

Thanks, Jean-Claude.

-So you are here for the Games?

-The games?

That sounds like fun. Absolutely. I'm here for the games.

Me too. I love the Winter Games.

What's he talking about?

So are you here for the downhill, the slalom or the jumping?

Um, the jumping?

-Cool. You look like a jumper.

-Do I? Yeah, watch this.

Whoa. Ha-ha-ha. Perhaps you should get your skis on first.

You can get them from the lodge. It's just over there.

Ah, the ski lodge. I was just about to go there now.

It was lovely to meet you. Enjoy the Winter Games.

And good luck with the jumping competition.

Bye, Jean-Claude! Thanks!

Oh, well, I need to get myself a pair of skis first.

Come on, let's go.

# Let's play. #

Oh, my goodness! I've been looking for a ski rep just like you!

-So, what's your name?

-I'm Rebecca.

Great to meet you, Rebecca. I'm Rupert the ski rep.

-Hi Rupe. How can I help you?

-Well, I'm in a bit of a tight spot.

I've got a coach load of skiers there, waiting to set off

so they can catch their plane home.

Bit of a problem is there's a skier stuck up on the mountain

-and he hasn't come back down.

-OK, what do you want me to do?

Go up the mountain, find him, bring him back down

so he can join the group and they can catch their flight home.

I can do that. What's the name of the missing skier?

You won't forget it, he's Jack Frost.

Leave it to me, Rupe. I'll find Jack.

I thought we'd be taking part in the Winter Games,

but this could be an exciting rescue mission instead.

You'd better hurry. These guys have got a plane to catch.

-Absolutely.

-Aren't you forgetting something?

Of course. Thanks, bye.

Toodle-pip. Good luck old girl.

# Let's play. #

Whoa. How are we going to get all the way up there?

It's too far to walk and we need to find Jack Frost

as quickly as possible.

What are we going to do?

Hold on, I remember, do you?

To reach the top of a mountain, skiers use a ski lift.

We need to find a ski lift then.

Ah. Maybe that's it over there.

Wow, look at the ski lift.

I've never seen anything like it before.

So, um, I just wait here and wait for it to stop.

Hmm, doesn't seem to be stopping.

Hello, you need help?

Oh, thank you.

So you wait for the ski lift to come down.

Bend your knees slightly, face the way you want to go,

sit back in the chair as it comes past.

Goodness, that's a lot to remember.

-Hurry up, here comes the ski lift.

-Here goes.

-Oh, yes.

-Sit back in the chair.

Whoa. This feels weird.

-Pull down the safety bar.

-Oh, yes, the safety bar.

Sit still.

Thank you!

He was a bit bossy, wasn't he?

Whoa! This is a great way to travel.

I wish I had one of these at home to take me to the shops.

Woohoo! Ha-ha.

# Let's play. #

Wow, what a fantastic place. But there's no time to enjoy the view.

We've got to find Jack Frost. Come on.

Jack! Hello, Jack Frost!

Yoo-hoo!

Jack! Jack Frost?

Jack! Jack Frost! Hello!

Ooh. Excuse me. Jack? Jack Frost?

-Hello!

-Ahh!

Oh, sorry, didn't mean to scare you.

Thank goodness, everyone's looking for you.

I started to build a snowman and then I turned around...

and everyone had gone.

But they're all waiting for you down there.

Come with me down the mountain or you'll miss your bus

and you and your group will miss your plane home.

OK. But I can't go just yet.

Because my snowman - he isn't finished just yet.

And I can't leave my snowman all unfinished.

Oh, he looks pretty good to me.

Ah, yes, but...

..he hasn't got a nose.

I can't leave him without a nose.

I'm not leaving until my snowman has the perfect snowman nose.

My mission is to get Jack Frost down the mountain,

but he won't budge until he's got a nose for his snowman.

Hold on. I know what we can use, do you?

I knew this would come in handy, or should I say nosey.

Would this help?

Ooh, that's perfect.

-Fantastic. Thanks, Rebecca.

-Your snowman looks great now.

Come on, we need to get down this mountain.

-It's time to start skiing.

-# Let's play. #

You go first. I want to make sure you get down the mountain this time.

OK, let's go.

Wheee!

OK. This is it. We're going skiing.

Woohoo!

Woohoo! Whee!

Oh, this is fun. Come on, Jack, let's go.

Oh, but I don't know which way to go.

Um, well this way is marked with a black diamond.

Oh, well I don't know what that means.

And that way is marked with a green square.

We need to get Jack down the mountain,

but we need the easiest route down.

But which way should we go?

Hold on, I remember, do you?

Ski routes down a mountain are called pistes. Pistes are colour-coded.

The most difficult to ski down are black and the easiest are green.

So we need to go down the easiest way.

We need to follow the green signs. Green is the easiest route.

That would be good for a beginner like me.

And perfect for me too. Come on, let's go.

Woohoo!

Woohoo! Wheee!

Oh, this is brilliant. I love skiing.

How're you doing, Jack?

Brilliant, thanks, Rebecca, I didn't realise skiing could be so cool.

I know, it's really cool. Woohoo!

Whee! Hey Rebecca, do you think we'll get down the mountain in time?

Of course. It's easier than it looks.

-Wa-hee!

-He-hey!

-Whoa.

-Wow.

-Oh, Rebecca, look out.

-What is it?

-Look out.

-Oh, no.

-Ohhh, nooo!

-Oh, no!

Ooooo-wooooo-wheeeeeee!

-Rebecca.

-Wooo!

-Wow-ee.

-Woohoo!

-Wow.

-Look at meee!

He-he-heeee!

-Whooa!

-Whoa.

Rebecca, that was one of the best jumps I have ever seen.

You're a brilliant skier.

Thanks Jack. I was pretty good, wasn't I?

Woohoo.

Oh, look. There's the ski lodge. We're nearly there.

Brilliant. Oh, dear, Rebecca, how do I stop?

Oh, no, if we don't stop soon, we're going to crash into the ski lodge!

What are we going to do?

Hold on, I remember, do you? That's it.

The best way to stop is to spread your skis like a pizza slice shape

with the point of the pizza in front of you.

Jack, you need to point the tips of your skis together

to make a pizza slice shape.

Like this.

It's working! Oh, yes.

Phew! That was close.

Thanks, Rebecca.

Now, hurry up. Get on that bus and catch that plane.

Thanks, Rebecca.

-Bye.

-Bye.

-Good luck!

# Let's play. #

BUS DRIVES AWAY Bye, Jack Frost! Safe journey!

Well, we did it. We managed to get Jack down the mountain just in time.

Mission accomplished. And skiing was brilliant fun.

It's just a shame we didn't get a chance

to take part in the Winter Games.

-Jean-Claude!

-Sorry but I need your help.

-How can I help?

Our skier hasn't shown up and the competition is about to start.

I saw you jumping as you came down the mountain

and I wonder, would you mind jumping for us in the Winter Games?

Yes.

# Let's play. #

Look at me, at the top of the ski jump.

Whoa it's pretty high up here and there is only one way down...

thatta way.

'The next contestant will be newcomer Rebecca.'

That's me.

'And her jump will commence in five, four...'

-We can do this.

-'Three, two...

-This is it. Here we go.

-'..one.'

-BUZZER SOUNDS

Whoa!

Here comes the jump.

Whoa! Ha-ha! Woohoo!

This is amazing! Woohoo!

Whoa! Whoa!

Now we just need to stop. And pizza slice!

Ha-ha! Woohoo!

'And that was a spectacular jump by Rebecca.

'She may even win this year's gold medal.'

Whoa, did you hear that?

'We just need to await the judges' decision.'

Well done, Rebecca. That was brilliant.

'And, yes, the judges have made their decision.'

BOTH: Shhh.

'The winner of the Winter Games Ski Jumping Competition is...

-'Rebecca!'

-Woohoo!

Yes.

# Let's play. #

Whoa. Ah, Jean-Claude.

-Good work, Rebecca.

-Oh, thanks, Jean-Claude.

Go on, then, let us see your medal.

-Look, it's a proper gold medal.

-How cool is that, eh?

Very, very cool.

Let me tell you, Rebecca, you are a great skier.

Oh, thanks, Jean.

That was ace. And we did it.

But we'd never have done it

without remembering everything we needed to know.

To reach the top of a mountain, skiers use a ski lift.

The route down a mountain is called a piste.

Pistes are colour-coded.

The most difficult are black and the easiest are green.

And the best way to stop is to spread your skis in a pizza slice shape.

We managed to get Jack Frost down the mountain in time

and win a medal in the Winter Games.

Today's been a huge success.

Will you come back next year to compete for us?

I'd love to.

But I think it's time we went home.

-Bye, Jean-Claude.

-Au revoir, goodbye.

# Let's play. #

Hey, Sid, how are you doing?

Hello, Rebecca, great to see you back. I'm very, very hot.

But how was it being a skier? Did you have fun?

It was cool. Very, very, very cool.

I skied down the mountain with Jack Frost

and I won a gold medal in the Winter Games Ski Jumping Competition.

Whoa, so how high did you jump?

It was very, very, very high.

Whoa, sounds like you've been really busy, as well.

So after all that time in the snow, do you fancy coming out in the sun?

Absolutely. But before we do, we need to pop on some sun block.

And look what I brought back from my adventure.

-Cool. OK, let's get changed, then we can put it on.

-Let's go.

Playing skiers was great fun. What do you like to play?

# Let's play. #

Playing hairdressers is fun. I dry their hair like this.

Meow. This is the noise I like to make when I'm playing cats.

Meow. Meow. Meow.

When I'm playing painters and decorators, I paint like this.

It's fun to play.

Start playing today.
