I'm using this tree trunk as a back scratcher.

Ooh, ooh, that's glorious.

What a very useful tree trunk.

SHOW ME JINGLE PLAYS

Someone wants a Show Me.

Show me, show me a tree trunk.

Tree trunks!

Tree trunks are the chunky, woody parts of the trees.

Tree trunks hold up the branches.

And the leaves.

Tree trunk, made of tough stuff called bark.

Tree trunks for goalposts when you play in the park.

Fancy a game of football, Tom?

OK, here I go. And...goal!

Tree trunk, thick and strong.

Tree trunk, twisted and long.

Tree trunk, silvery smooth.

Tree trunk, rough and grooved.

Tree trunk, extra wide!

Tree trunk, with moss growing on one side.

Take a look, Teddington.

Mm, mossy.

Tree trunk reaching up high.

Catching the clouds as they float by.

Your tree trunk is a cloud catcher.

This tree trunk is a back scratcher. Have a go, Teddington.

Ooh, ooh, that's lovely.

Bears love having their backs scratched.

Let's have a go.

Oh, yes. Oh, that's very good, Teddington.

What great tree trunk back scratcher!

-TINKLES PLAY

-Oh, listen.

The counting cobbles. Let's go!

I wonder who we'll meet today.

Count along with me. Ready?

One, two,

three, four,

five, six,

seven, eight,

nine,

and one big jump...

Ten!

HORN HONKS

It's Old MacDonald.

E-I-E-I, eh up.

Join in with his song.

# Old MacDonald had a farm

# E-E-I-O

# And on that farm he had... #

What's the matter, Old MacDonald?

HORN HONKS

Tree trunks don't move. You'll have to go round.

-E-I-E-I have to go round?

-Yes, you have to go round.

E-I-E-I heard you first time.

Look, let me help.

There we go.

E-I-E-I thank you.

HORN HONKS

Oh, not again.

HORN HONKS

It's another tree trunk, Old MacDonald. You have to go round.

-E-I-E-I have to go round?

-Yes, you have to go round.

E-I-E-I...

HORN HONKS

Let me help.

-There we go.

-E-I-E-I thank you.

HORN HONKS TWICE

Boo!

Tickle-tickle-tickle-tickle!

E-I-EI thought that were funny.

That tickled me!

Bye, Old MacDonald.

E-IE-I bye.

Your turn, me ducks.

Show me, show me tree trunks.

HORN HONKS

I see lots of tree trunks in the wood.

I can easily climb trees.

But not some trees that's really hard.

We can play hide and seek with them.

My daddy can make a house made out of sticks and a tree.

I've got a tyre swing that hangs off a tree at home.

In summer, leaves and flowers grow on tree trunks.

Tree trunks grow lots of different fruits.

That tree trunk has got lots of rings cos it's really, really, really old.

Thank you, you showed me.

And me.

I'm a chunky tree trunk, rooted to the ground,

far too big to get your arms around.

Chunky tree trunk.

Show me, show me your chunky tree trunk.

Chunky tree trunk.

I'm a bendy tree trunk.

Watch me sway

from side to side on a windy day.

Bendy tree trunk.

Whooooosh.

Show me, show me your bendy tree trunk.

Whooooosh.

Whooooosh.

Bendy tree trunk.

Tree trunks are like big drinking straws,

slurping water from the bottom of the tree up, up, up...

to the leaves at the top.

Drinking-straw tree trunk.

HE SLURPS

Show me, show me your drinking-straw tree trunk.

SLURPING

Slurp!

I'm a fallen tree trunk.

Come and see.

Oh, how Stuffy likes to balance along me.

Oh, oh, oh, there we go. One, two, one, two.

I'm a tall tree trunk reaching out.

Tall enough...

to toss the clouds about.

Oh!

Look up there.

Puffs of cloud.

High in the sky.

What can you see floating by?

A leaf.

Climb up high.

Taste the sky.

Rocket zoom!

Rock-a-bye moon.

Ring-a-ring, around we go.

Floating down.

Down, down below.

Puffs of cloud high in the sky.

Wonderful things floating by.

Come on, let's look for some more trees.

HE LAUGHS

HE LAUGHS

Here are some trees.

Where would a tree be without its trunk?

Its branches would fall to the ground - kerplunk!

Kerplunk!

Oh!

What's that at the bottom of the tree?

What a teeny, tiny door. But who is it for?

Who would live in a tree trunk?

It's far too small for a bear.

And far too teeny for me.

It has a tiny doorstep in front of the tiny front door.

I know! It's so absolutely teeny-tiny, it must be for an elf.

-An elf?

-Oh, yes. Look.

He's left his hat outside.

The tiniest hat for the tiniest head.

Oh, and look.

A boat to sail across the puddle sea.

And twiggy oars to help him paddle.

Shall we knock on their door to see if they're at home?

-Oh, yes, let's do that.

-OK.

Knock-knock-knock.

Oh, it's not an elf's house.

It's a house for a woodlouse.

A whole family of woodlice.

Woodlice.

SHOW ME JINGLE PLAYS

Oh, listen. Somebody wants a Show Me.

Show me, show me woodlice.

Woodlice.

Lots of wriggly, jiggly woodlice.

With lots of legs.

This woodlouse has lots of tickly legs.

Wriggly antennae.

And look at its back. It looks like it's wearing a suit of armour.

Under here!

What's that, Stuffy?

Goodness me! Lots more woodlice.

Wriggling and jiggling.

It looks like they're having a dance.

A woodlouse party.

Woodlice love dark, damp places.

I think this woodlouse wants to wriggle

and jiggle with all the other woodlice.

Off you go.

Welcome to the party.

There we go.

Now, don't forget to wash your hands.

Good idea, Miss Mouse.

-In me pocket, Pui.

-Thank you.

Toys' turn. Come on, Miss Mouse.

Show me, show me. Off you go.

# There's a squirrel scampering up a tree

# Scamper scamper scampering, just like me

# There's a duck splash-splashing Splish splash splish

# Splash splash splashing just like this

# There's a blackbird hopping Hop hop hop

# Things that scamper splash and hop. #

Squirrels scamper!

Ducks splash!

Blackbird hops!

# Show me, show me, off you go!

# There's a fishing boat bobbing on the sea

# Bob bob bobbing, just like me

# There are wipers swishing Swish swish swish

# Swish swish swishing, just like this

# There's a tractor chugging through the mud

# Things that bob and swish and chug

# Fishing boats bob

# Wipers swish

# Tractor chugs

# Show me, show me, off you go

# There are branches swaying in the breeze

# Sway sway swaying, just like me

# There are sycamore seeds spinning to the ground

# Spin spin spinning, round and round

# There's a green leaf floating like a boat

# Things that sway and spin and float

# Branches sway

# Seed spins

# Leaf floats

# Show me, show me, off you go. #

Oh, Miss Mouse, you're back.

Wriggling, jiggling.

What are you up to, Pui?

I'm a wriggling, jiggling woodlouse.

# There once was a woodlouse who lived in a tree

# A tree trunk with a louse in

# And it wasn't grousing

# It sang every morning

# How lucky I am

# Living in a tree trunk so shady and damp

# I saw a woodlouse

# Where?

# There in the dark

# Where in the dark?

# Right there

# A little jiggly woodlouse

# Well, I declare

# Going jig-jiggity jig here and there

# I saw a woodlouse

# Where?

# There in the dark

# Where in the dark?

# Right there

# A little jiggly woodlouse

# Well, I declare

# Going jig-jiggity jig

# Jig-jiggity jig

# Jig-jiggity jig, here and there. #

Well, I never. A dancing woodlouse!

Wriggling, jiggling colourful woodlice.

We'll have to put those in the woodlouse house.
