# This is our street

# It's where we live

-BOTH: It's us!

-Topsy...

-..and Tim!

Come and see our sticks. Come on!

'We found these sticks on the way home from nursery school.'

Look at my funny stick, Mummy!

MUM LAUGHS

-"Hello! I'm Sticky!"

-Hello, Sticky!

'My favourite is this funny knobbly stuck.'

Sticky is the best stick, Tim.

"Hello, nice to meet you."

Da-da-da-da-da, da-da.

You're a very good stick finder, Topsy.

I know. Look, she's even got a face.

"I've got a face."

-She's funny.

-She is funny.

What a wonderful stick collection, Topsy and Tim.

Can you put them down here on this newspaper for me, please?

OK, Mummy.

Thank you.

"Sticky going to be put down!"

-Right, who's thirsty? BOTH:

-Me!

DOORBELL RINGS

Grandma!

And Mossy!

They're here!

-Hi! Hello.

-Hi, everyone.

-Grandma!

-What a walk we've had.

We need a sit down, don't we, Mossy?

Hello, Mossy.

-Oh, dear.

-You're cracking all our sticks.

-Sticks?

-Oh, Grandma!

-Oh!

-It's our fantastic stick collection.

Yeah, we got these sticks on the way home from nursery school.

Did you?! What's that one?

It's my favourite one. "Hello, Grandma." His name's Sticky.

He's got a face, head, arms and everything really.

-Well, that's fantastic.

-"Nice to meet you."

Can I have a look at him? Isn't he lovely?

I tell you what, Topsy,

why don't you put him down with all his other sticks?

I think he'll enjoy that because I want my "hello, Grandma" cuddle,

Topsy and Tim.

ALL: Squeeze!

-MOSSY BARKS

-What's she doing?

Mossy likes our sticks.

Mossy and Grandma must be thirsty after their long walk.

-Into the kitchen, everyone!

-Oh, lovely. Yes, please.

-Can I have apple juice, Mummy?

-Come on, Mossy.

MOSSY BARKS

Sticky! Mossy's got Sticky.

Oh, Mossy! You know sticks aren't good for you.

Mossy!

Drinkies, Mossy-doggy!

Mossy!

Mossy?

Mossy's hidden Sticky somewhere upstairs.

-I can't find her.

-Oh, Mossy! Sorry, Topsy.

It'll turn up, don't worry.

I'll go and help Topsy to look.

We're good at finding things.

Thank you, Tim. Tell Topsy not to worry - Sticky will turn up.

OK.

Please, show us where you've hidden Sticky, Mossy.

I'll let you cuddle Little Moon Bunny if you do.

-Come on, Mossy!

-Mossy!

She's really tired.

It was a long walk to our house.

Topsy, have you tried looking under Mummy and Dad's bed?

No.

I'll go and look there for you.

'I look under Mummy and Dad's bed.'

'I look in the bathroom.'

'But no Sticky!'

Mossy, where have you put Sticky?

Topsy, have you tried looking underneath Mossy and see

if Mossy's lying on Sticky?

I hadn't thought of that.

If I just look under here...

Have you twins found Sticky yet?

Not yet, Grandma.

Come on, Mossy, please, stand up. Get up.

I know!

TOY TRUCK STARTS UP

Well done, Tim!

Oh, no Sticky...

I give up.

I'll keep looking.

Any luck?

Has Mossy shown you where she's put Sticky yet?

-Not yet, Grandma.

-Silly, sleepy dog!

Come down and see what I've found for you instead.

And if she doesn't bring Sticky back soon, I'll check on her myself.

Here she comes...

Come on, honey bun.

What about this long stick, Topsy?

It doesn't have a face, like Sticky.

What about this one?

No... Thank you, but I just want Sticky.

Oh... Come and sit here.

Do you know what I do when I lose things?

No, Grandma.

I find something else to do,

and then, just when I stop thinking about the thing I've lost,

I find it!

-Does that work?

-Always.

Just you wait and see.

Come and have some juice.

'And that was when I saw something.

'It was in our letter box.'

A letter!

Tim, a letter!

Is it for us? Is the letter for us?

Ooh, I don't know. Let's see.

Can you read whose name's on the front, Topsy?

It says,

"Topsy and Tim."

Well, bring it into the kitchen and let's open it.

Mummy, we've got a letter. Let's open it together, Tim.

Is it an invitation...

-to a party?

-Let's have a look.

"Topsy and Tim are invited to Vinda's

"knights and princesses party."

-How exciting!

-It's on Friday.

-We're going to Vinda's party!

-We're going to Vinda's party!

MOSSY BARKS

Hello, Mossy, what have you got there?

-Sticky!

-Good girl, Mossy!

Sticky, where were you? Thanks, Mossy.

That's right, Topsy, give her a cuddle to say thank you.

You were right, Grandma, when I forgot about Sticky, I got her back.

You see.

Well, I think it's time for me and this daft dog to get going.

-We've got a long walk home.

-OK.

-MOSSY BARKS

-Come on, Mossy.

'And that's when Mummy said,

-' "What are you going to wear to Vinda's fancy dress party?"

-'

What are you going to wear to Vinda's fancy dress party?

I'm going to be a knight!

-Oh!

-Me too!

And I'm going to use Sticky as my sword.

Lucky you got her back then!

BOTH: "And that," said Grandma, "was that."

Bye, Mossy. Bye, Grandma.

Bye-bye, Grandma.

BOTH: Hello.

Are you good at remembering?

Can you remember what happened to us today?

This is our Topsy and Tim memory game.

Let's play.

'Today, Topsy's favourite stick, Sticky, went missing.

'But can you remember who ran away with Sticky?'

'Was it Grandma?

'Or was it Mossy the dog?'

'The answer is Mossy the dog.'

MOSSY BARKS

'Did you remember?'

'Watch this.'

ALL: Squeeze!

-MOSSY BARKS

-What's she doing?

Mossy likes our sticks.

Mossy and Grandma must be thirsty after their long walk.

-Into the kitchen, everyone!

-Oh, lovely. Yes, please.

-Can I have apple juice, Mummy?

-Come on, Mossy!

MOSSY BARKS

Sticky! Mossy's got Sticky!

'Great game.'

That was good fun.

See you soon.
