A programme for children at home.
In the story chair, Ruth Goring

There's dancing every day in Play School this week: today Rick Jones dances with his fingers and on Wednesday Marian Diamond makes up a hopping dance.
Tuesday's picturebook is an American story, "Johnny Appleseed", written and illustrated by Aliki; and there will be Red Indian dressing-up clothes on the pegs.
Ruth Goring returns to the story chair with some new stories about her two children. Thursday's story is about a train journey to the sea-side-and the arched window shows a busy main-line station; her two other stories are about moving house and holidays.
