00:00Hi, everyone. I am Paula, and these are my friends Chucky and Billy.
00:07Hello.
00:08And my friends Tim and Calc.
00:11Hi, everybody. We're playing hopscotch. All right, Billy, it's your turn.
00:17Um, okay.
00:20One. Two. You can do it, Billy.
00:26Three. Oh, dear.
00:29Can I go now? I can do a better job.
00:33Tim, that's not very nice. It's still Billy's turn. We should cheer Billy on.
00:41Oh, I'm sorry, Billy.
00:44Don't give up, Billy. You can do it.
00:47Okay, Paula.
00:50Four.
00:53Oh.
00:54Don't worry, Billy. It just takes practice.
00:57All right, Tim. Your turn.
01:00Here I go.
01:01One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven.
01:07Ta-da!
01:09Wow, Tim. You're so good at this.
01:12It's all practice, Billy. I've been playing hopscotch in the playground at school.
01:17Oh, I don't think I've ever been to a playground before.
01:23You've never been to a playground?
01:26No, never.
01:28It's okay, Billy. Lucky for you, I know where to find a playground.
01:33Let's go to the big garden.
01:37Hi, Mr. Garden Gnome.
01:39Hello, children. What brings you to the playground in the big garden?
01:45Billy hasn't been to a playground before.
01:48He's never been to a playground before.
01:51Oh, really?
01:53Yes, he has.
01:55He's never been to a playground before.
01:58Oh, really?
02:00Yes, he has.
02:03Billy hasn't been to a playground before, so we would like to show him this one.
02:08What a wonderful idea.
02:11Can I try the swing, Mr. Garden Gnome?
02:14Of course you can, Billy. That's why it's here.
02:18Go on, give it a try.
02:21I'll push you, Billy.
02:23Um, okay, Tim.
02:27Now, now, children. That's no way to play on a swing set.
02:32We need to give Billy space, or else someone might get hurt while Billy is swinging.
02:39Let's all take four steps back.
02:42Except for you, of course, Billy.
02:45One, two, three, four.
02:50Good. Now you're ready to play on the swing, Billy.
02:54Here, I'll start you off.
02:58This is fun.
03:03What is it, Calc?
03:06Oh, you want to play on the seesaw?
03:10Okay, let's go.
03:13Hmm, something doesn't look right.
03:17Ooh, a seesaw.
03:21That's right, Calc. A seat is missing.
03:25Are seesaws supposed to be this way, Paula?
03:29I don't think so, Billy.
03:31Well, let's try it anyway.
03:33That's not a good idea, Tim.
03:35This seesaw looks broken. It may be dangerous.
03:40Oh, right.
03:42Let's inform Mr. Garden Gnome about the broken seesaw.
03:46What's the matter, children?
03:48This seesaw looks broken, Mr. Garden Gnome.
03:52It has a seat missing.
03:54Oh, dear me.
03:56It's a good thing you kids didn't play on it.
03:59Let me place a sign.
04:02There. Much better.
04:05Thank you for informing me, children.
04:07No problem, Mr. Garden Gnome.
04:10Oh, look. A slide.
04:12Is that one alright to play with, Mr. Garden Gnome?
04:15Absolutely. Go right ahead, children.
04:19Hooray!
04:24Haha, I'm first.
04:26Wow, it's so high.
04:29It's okay, Billy. Just take your time to stay safe.
04:34I will, Paula.
04:37One, two, three, four, five, six.
04:47You did it, Billy.
04:49Now let's go down the slide.
04:51Go, Tim, go.
04:54Watch me slide.
04:56Oh, no, no.
04:58That is not a safe way to use the slide.
05:02Huh? What are we doing wrong, Mr. Garden Gnome?
05:05Step one.
05:07Before you slide down, make sure no one is standing close behind you.
05:12Billy, maybe you should take a step back, just in case.
05:17Oh, right. Sorry, Tim.
05:20It's alright, Billy. Thanks.
05:23Step two.
05:25Before you slide down, make sure no one is standing at the end of the slide.
05:30Guys, I think you should take a few steps back.
05:34Oh, that's us, Cal Kinchocky.
05:37Let's take a few steps back.
05:39How's this, Tim?
05:41Looks fine from here, Paula.
05:43And step three.
05:45After sliding down, make sure you move away for the next person.
05:50Woo-hoo!
05:52It's all yours, Billy.
05:54Okay, Tim. No one behind me.
05:58Whee!
06:00Good work, everybody.
06:03Hey, where are Cal Kinchocky?
06:06Ha-ha! Having fun without us, I see.
06:14Oh, dear.
06:16There you go, Chocky.
06:18We had a lot of fun playing safely in the playground, Paula.
06:23That's right, Billy.
06:25Which means we have successfully completed our mission.
06:29And we did it with your help at home.
06:34Today, we've had fun at the playground in the big garden.
06:39We've also learned that it's dangerous to stand too close to someone who's on the swing.
06:45Or on the slide.
06:47We should always remember to stand away from the bottom of the slide.
06:51And don't use playground things that are broken.
06:55It could be dangerous.
06:57Let's continue our hopscotch game.
07:00Let's continue our hopscotch game.
07:02You try again, Billy.
07:04Okay, Tim. Here goes.
07:07Wait!
07:08Guys, let's take three steps back.
07:12One, two, three.
07:16Huh? Why take three steps back, Tim?
07:19For Billy's safety, of course.
07:22Okay, Tim.
07:24One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
07:31Hooray!
07:33Do join us on our next adventure.
