A programme for children under five
Nursery rhymes, stories, and music

Friday's story by Joan E. Cass, to be read by Dorothy Smith , has a cosy theme, for what could conjure up a more homely picture than its title, 'Toast for Tea"?
Yet notions of 'comfort may differ - what, for instance, is a snowman's opinion of a cosy fire? This point of view is voiced in Enid Jones' story, 'The Snowman,' which Julia Lang relates today.
There are no two opinions, however, among our under-fives about 'Tumpy the Circus Elephant,' by M. Wallace or ' Dan Pig,' by P. M. Worvill. The one, so long awaited, is to be heard again tomorrow from Julia Lang; the other. so eagerly requested, will be told on Thursday by Daphne Oxenford. (Elizabeth A. Taylor)

Gwen and David discussed Bob's decision and all but quarrelled, because Gwen took her brother's side. Mrs. Freeman said the family should let him live his own life and leave well alone. Gwen told Trudi that Bob did not earn much money. Later Trudi told Gwen she had tactfully discussed the matter with Bob and it seemed to make h:m even more determined to earn more money.
