Play School: Useful Box Day

on BBC Two England

A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Miranda Connell, Rick Jones
Today's story is called "Oh Essie!" by Geraldine Kaye

Do you ever forget things and get in a muddle? Today's story is about a schoolgirl who is very forgetful. Wellington boots, football boots, and a pair of very old boots come into the story Miranda tells on Wednesday, and on Friday Rick finds a piano in Play School and uses it to tell a story.
There are lots of games in Play School this week: "Simon Says" and jumping-over-puddles game are just two that Miranda and Rick ask you to play with them. Would you like to go across the sea, riding just above the waves? On Wednesday, the windows show some people travelling this way - in a giant hovercraft.
