A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Valerie Pitts, Brian Cant
Today's story is told by The Paper Bag Players and is called "Shoes"

(The Paper Bag Players, live dancers from America on their first visit to this country, tell the story today and on Friday. Their costumes and scenery are made entirely from cardboard boxes and paper bags.)
(On Thursday Brian reads Michael Foreman's picture-book "The Two Giants" and Valerie makes a picture out of different wrapping papers. A real donkey and its cart visit Play School on Tuesday to give the toys a ride.)
