A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Miranda Connell, John White

Christmas cards and decorations and lights on the Christmas tree are all part of Play School this week. Today, John and Miranda make a Christmas card with things from the Useful Box and the windows show what happens to parcels when they are posted. And after another candle has been lit on the Christmas Ring on Friday, the Christmas tree will be decked out with lights and presents.
Today's story is called 'Eggbert Nosh' by Paul Groves
(to 11.25)
