Play School: Useful Box Day

on BBC Two England

A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Julie Stevens, Brian Cant
Today's story is called "The Little House" by Virginia Lee Burton

"The fair maid who, on the first of May,
Goes to the fields at the break of day,
And washes in dew from the hawthorn tree,
Will ever after handsome be."
That's Jemima's special poem for May Day. There are some more trees in Play School on Tuesday when Brian and Julie try to make an English country garden for Humpty Dumpty. On Thursday and Friday, Norman Mitchell returns as the story-teller to tell two new stories about the adventures of Mr. Bits and Pieces.
