A programme for children at home.
Presenters this week, Carol Chell, John White
In the story chair, Charles Leno
Today's story is called "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" by Beatrix Potter

"Bell horses, bell horses,
What time of day?
One o'clock, two o'clock
Three and away"
Dapple has bells on his harness today, and Jemima has a new coat to go for a ride. On Tuesday everybody's off on a journey - to the seaside for a picnic. John goes fishing later in the week and asks you to play a river game with him. The tales about Peter Rabbit, Johnny Town-mouse, and Mr. Jeremy Fisher are among the stories by Beatrix Potter that Charles Leno reads in Play School every day this week.
