"SHOW ME" JINGLE

Somebody wants a show me.

Show me, show me eggs.

-Eggs!

-Eggs!

Come on!

Can you see some eggs?

Let's look.

Eggs in a nest.

Lots of eggs!

White ones and brown ones.

Here's a bird looking after some eggs.

And another one keeping them warm.

What's inside?

It's a tiny chick!

Oh, wow, a tiny bird from a tiny egg.

Aw!

Pretend that you're inside a tiny little egg.

Oh, yes, it'd be very cosy. So snuggle up really small in a ball!

That's it.

# Imagine, imagine, imagine An egg that's very small

# Imagine, imagine, imagine You're snuggled in a ball

# You snuggle and snuggle and snuggle very small

# You snuggle and snuggle and snuggle in a ball

# Snuggle, snuggle, snuggle

# Imagine, imagine, imagine That you begin to grow

# Imagine, imagine, imagine You're hatching really slow

# You hatch and hatch and hatch and hatch and hatch as you grow

# You hatch and hatch and hatch Really slow

# Oh, you've hatched from the egg

# Imagine, imagine, imagine You're stretching everything

# Imagine, imagine, imagine You stretch your little wings

# You flap and flap and flap and flap and stretch out everything

# You flap and flap and flap your little wings

# Flap, flap, flap! #

Hmm-mm!

Ooh!

-Boo!

-Aaargh!

THEY LAUGH

Right, Miss Mouse.

Now stretch, stretch, stretch.

Yes! You've hatched from your egg.

"SHOW ME" JINGLE

Come on, let's go outside.

Puffs of cloud

high in the sky,

what can you see floating by?

Wellies!

Puffs of cloud high in the sky

wonderful things floating by.

This is how eggs come from the shop or supermarket.

These are eggs you can eat and they're packed in boxes like this

to keep them safe because eggs can break easily.

Have you held an egg in your hands?

Let's pretend to hold an egg in our hands like this.

Oh-ho!

And let's go...on...a walk! An egg walk!

-Oh, but we have to be very careful!

-OK.

So we don't drop the eggs. Ooh!

-Oh, no! A bumpy road!

-A bumpy road. Oh, no!

Bumpety-bumpety, whoa!

-Bumpety-bump!

-Oh!

-Oh, that's better.

-Oh.

-All right now.

-We didn't drop our eggs, good.

Chris, oh no, slippery slidey ice.

Slippery slidey...whoa! Slidey ice! Ooh!

-Whoa!

-Oh!

-Oh, it's very slidey and slippery.

-Oh, phew!

-Is that better?

-We're over the ice.

-Oh, good.

-But Chris...

-Yes?

-Oh, no!

-Sticky, squelchy mud.

-Sticky, squelchy mud.

THEY SQUELCH AND GASP

-Oh!

-Oh, it's very squelchy and sticky.

But my egg's all right.

-Ah!

-Ah, we made it!

-All safe. There you go, Mo Mo Bot.

Ah! And there you are, Tom.

Give your egg to your toy.

Now Tom has his egg safely.

You know, it's tricky to carry an egg around.

Imagine having to carry one the way Teddington had to in his story.

It's all about an egg-and-spoon race.

Get cosy and comfy, sit down with your toy.

Here's a tale for us all to enjoy.

One day Teddington thought it would be lots of fun

to have a race around the garden

and everyone agreed it would be lots of fun indeed.

"I'm not very fast. I don't think I'll win

"but I'd like to join in," said Stuffy.

"I thought we'd try something new,

"like running while balancing eggs on spoons." suggested Teddington.

"An egg-and-spoon race! Fancy that!

"I hope the eggs don't fall and go splat!" squeaked Miss Mouse.

So they each grabbed a spoon and they each grabbed an egg.

Stuffy did something else instead.

"I've tucked my egg into my pocket! That way I won't ever drop it!"

Stuffy giggled. "My egg and spoon are really teeny.

"That's because I'm so weenie." squeaked Miss Mouse.

"Let's get started, everyone. I'll count to three and then we'll run.

"The first to reach the garden gate with egg on spoon will win the race.

"Or egg in pocket, in Stuffy's case!" said Teddington, giggling.

With a one and a two and a three

and a "Go!" off they went - Geronimo!

"Look at me, I run like a rocket

"with my egg inside my pocket!" giggled Stuffy.

But then he wobbled forward and back

and, dearie me, the egg went "crack!"

An egg is safe inside a pocket, just as long as you don't squash it.

Miss Mouse's egg wobbled and dropped.

"Stop that egg, it's rolling off!" she squeaked.

But the egg was very, very fast. It disappeared amongst the grass.

Toddler Tom was ever so quick

but his egg dropped off and he stepped on it.

"Oh, I have some eggy goo on the bottom of my shoe!" he chuckled.

Mo Mo Bot tried to flip her egg

but it landed on her head.

"I'm not that good at catch." she said.

"I should have balanced it instead."

And dear old slowcoach Teddington,

who was of course the oldest one,

with legs that were too stiff to run,

slowly took his time and won!

"Because you've won the race,

"you get this lovely, shiny green rosette." squeaked Miss Mouse.

"He also gets an egg to munch,

"later when he has his lunch!" giggled Stuffy.

"Ho-ho, I've never won a race before," said Teddington,

happily clapping his paws.

Oh, well done, Teddington!

-And here's the egg you won!

-Aw!

I love eggs. I like scrambled eggs.

-I like poached eggs.

-Ooh, what sort of eggs do you like?

Your turn! Show me, show me eggs.

"SHOW ME" JINGLE

BOTH: Eggs!

This is an egg like this.

Eggs have a shell.

Chickens give us eggs.

They're, um...white

and...yellow.

-Fried egg.

-EGG SIZZLES

Scrambled.

Boiled.

Smash it.

Open it.

I dip my bread in my yolk.

Dip it in.

-Dippy egg.

-I get eggs from the supermarket.

I like egg sandwiches.

SHE GIGGLES

Thank you. You showed me!

And me! And Teddington!

And, look, Teddington, your egg is ready to eat.

It hasn't been scrambled. It hasn't been poached.

It's been boiled - a boiled egg!

A tappy, cracky, dippy, delicious boiled egg!

Ooh! Tappy...

Can you see the cracks?

Cracky. Let's open it up.

Oh!

Ah!

There's the white bit and, underneath...

Oh, look, there's the yellow-orangey yolk!

I have some bread here and it's been cut into soldiers.

We can dip the soldiers into the yolk

to give them yellow hats.

-CHRIS LAUGHS

-There we are.

Left, right! Left, right! Left, right! Left!

"SHOW ME" JINGLE

Somebody wants a show me!

Show me, show me soldiers.

Soldiers.

Teddington has soldiers to dip in his egg. Egg soldiers!

And he also has a toy soldier.

See if I can find it. It's here somewhere. Hairdryer...

hair brushes, toy cars...ah! Look!

Here it is. A toy soldier.

Hey!

It has...

shiny boots and a red coat with shiny buttons.

His hat is so tall!

I think we've got a hat like that in the dressing-up box. Let's look.

Hello, Chris. Look, I have found a red jacket with shiny buttons -

-a little bit like the toy soldier's jacket.

-Yes! Oh!

Here's a drum.

We can march along to the drum's rhythm, just like a soldier.

Oh, and here is the hat. I love it!

-Ha! It fits!

-You look like Teddington's soldier - very smart.

-Thank you, Pui, so do you.

-Thank you.

-Here's the drum sticks. Ready?

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! March along with me! #

-Soldiers stand up very tall and straight, like this.

-Yes.

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! Stand up straight like me!

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! Stand up straight like me! #

-They also salute, like this.

-How do you do it?

-This.

-Oh. Oh, we like that. Join in!

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! Now salute like me!

-# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! Now salute like me! #

-Oh!

-Let's march again.

-Yes. March with us.

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! March along with me!

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! March along with me! #

ATTEN-TION!

Eh-oh.

SOLDIER HUMS "THE GRAND OLD DUKE OF YORK"

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! March along with me!

# Drum pum-pum! Drum pum-pum! March along with me! #

Hey, Chris, look at Teddington. He's dressed as a soldier.

Like the Grand Old Duke of York.

We could be his 10,000 men. What do you think?

Would you like to be some of the 10,000 men?

-Oh, good!

-Have a march! Good marching!

# Oh, the Grand Old Duke of York

# He had 10,000 men

# He marched them up to the top of the hill

# And he marched them down again

# And when they were up They were up

# And when they were down They were down

# And when they were only halfway up

# They were neither up nor down. #

Keep marching, toy soldiers!

# Oh, the Grand Old Duke of York

# He had 10,000 men

# He marched them up to the top of the hill... #

Ooh! It's that sound!

Show me, show me, your groovy moves!

UPBEAT MUSIC RESUMES

Oh, the Grand Old Duke! You wobbled! I mean, Teddington!

Well done, toy soldiers!

"SHOW ME" JINGLE

A line of smart soldiers standing in a row.

Some of the soldiers wear blue.

This one is wearing yellow.

And this one is wearing green.

I'm going to turn some of the cards over, like this.

Here we go.

And now let's play a game of matching pairs.

Here's the blue soldier. He's wearing a blue jacket and hat.

Where's the other blue soldier? Do you know?

This one?

No! It's the green soldier. Turn it over again.

Let's pick another one.

Here! Is it blue? Is it blue?

Yes! Two blue soldiers.

Right! Next one.

A yellow soldier. Let's find the matching yellow soldier.

Where do you think? This one?

Oh, silly me! That's the green one! Oh!

Turn it over.

Is it this one?

Yes! Hurrah! Two yellow soldiers.

So...this one is the green one, yes.

Oh, so, is the other green one under here? What do you think?

Yes! Two green soldiers.

In fact, we have...

a line of smart soldiers standing in a row.

BELL RINGS

It's the lift!

I wonder who's inside. I'd better set up the shop.

-TING!

-Shop's open!

TING!

-Whoa!

-It's Humpty Dumpty!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall

All the king's horses And all the king's men

Couldn't put Humpty together again!

-I'm all right.

-Come over to the counter, Humpty.

-Can I sit on it?

-Oh, no, you might fall off.

-I don't want to fall off. I've had one big fall today.

-What happened?

I cracked my shell but the king's horses and men put me back together.

-I'm all right.

-Oh, well, Humpty you should stop bothering them.

-They've got marching duties.

-Left, right! Left, right!

I think you should stop sitting on that wall. You keep falling off!

-But I'm all right!

-Oh. I know!

Instead of sitting on the wall, try this!

-Can I sit on it?

-Well, yes, you can. It's a chair.

Chairs are for sitting on.

# Humpty Dumpty sat on a chair! #

Oh!

-# Humpty Dumpty had a big scare! #

-Are you OK? Cracked your shell?

No, I'm all right.

Oh, dear. Hmm.

Let me see what else I might have. Um... Oh, I know! Let's try this.

Oh, can I sit on it?

Yes, you can. It's a stool. Stools are for sitting on.

# Humpty Dumpty sat on a stool! #

Aaargh!

# Humpty Dumpty felt such a fool. #

-Oh, dear. Have you cracked your shell?

-No, I'm all right.

-Yeah.

-Oh, um...

Now, let me think.

Oh, I know! I've got the very thing!

Can I sit on it?

What is it?

Yes, you can sit on it. It's a comfy beanbag!

# Humpty Dumpty sat on a beanbag! #

Ah! It's all right. I'm all right.

# Humpty Dumpty loves his new beanbag! #

Oh, great!

Now you won't bother the king's soldiers again!

-Bye, Humpty Egg!

-Bye!

Eggs! We looked at eggs today. Do you remember? Eggs go with soldiers.

Soldiers! Left, right! Left, right! Left, right!

Oh!

Left, right! Left, right! Left, right! Left!

Say, "Left, right! Left, right!" to your toy today.

Left, right! Left, right! TING!

Oh, it's the lift. Thank you for coming to visit us today.

-Please come back again soon.

-Get your worms ready!

Ten worms wriggling... waving goodbye!

Goodbye!
