A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Marla Landi, Brian Cant
In the story chair, Gerald Young
(Also on BBC-2)

Blow wind blow, and go mill go-
That the miller may grind his corn,
That the baker may take it
And into bread bake it,
And bring you a loaf in the morn.
That's the poem that starts each day in this request week of Play School, and there will be other poems and songs about the wind.
Thursday's picturebook is Borka written and illustrated by John Burningham. Gerald Young is in the story-teller's chair and as his story on Friday is about 'The Bee and the Bubbles', Marla Landi and Brian Cant show you three ways of blowing bubbles.
