TV series episodes are good, so why not turn your favourite TV episode of your favourite children's show into an epic playbill? For example, you could have a playbill for the Max & Ruby episode 'Bunny Cakes' with Max and Ruby making cakes while glaring at each other cheekily, or for the Peg & Corn episode 'Carrot Club' you can have Peg and Corn dressed up as carrots waving signs with carrots on them, or the episode 'Comic Catastrophe' you can have Peg and Corn bursting out of a comic book dressed up as heroes. Or maybe you could do an epic playbill for episodes of my favourite shows, like Scream Street, Bluey, Strange Hill High, Love Monster, Dog Loves Books, Kipper, My Pride and Esme & Roy! Download and print the playbill template to help get you started.
Once, Mother Teresa said "If you can't feed 100 people, then feed just one." That scene in The Dengineers Christmas Special of the entire crew gathering with Astrid for a Christmas feast has given me an idea of how you can set up your very own Christmas picnic feast! First, make some jam and cheese sandwiches, then you can make my favourite treat - sausage rolls! Give it a go and be like Astrid - eat! Drink! Be merry!

The first was somehow kind of a follow up to my dream about falling asleep under a white bird's wings. Luke, Resus, Cleo, Luella and Six and I were in the mountains near the forest swimming in the lake at sunset. It was all calm and peaceful, and the water was brightly shining in the light of the sun. We were all naked (except Cleo because she wears bandages) and we had a fun time splashing each other in the peacefulness of the mountains, sometimes lying in the water and gazing up at the sky. After this relaxing natural session in the water, we lay snuggled together on the surface of the lake and fell asleep. I'm sure something's calling to me. Nature is. It's telling me that Scream Street will air new episodes on March 22nd! Is it? I'm sure it is. Now for the second dream, this one is a bit more festive...
I saw Timmy's Christmas Surprise yesterday morning, but tomorrow I'm going to watch Topsy & Tim's Christmas Eve and Mouse & Mole At Christmas Time at Grandma's. I didn't see Christmas In Storyland, but what I can tell you is that I had a dream relating to it and the Scooby Doo movie that'll air on Boxing Day, Scooby Doo & The Goblin King.
The Scooby Gang and I were wandering Storyland, a part of the North Pole filled with rainbows, Christmas trees and giant candy canes stuck in the snow, where all the world's stories were made, including gritty and boring ones like classic original published versions of things like The Jungle Book. In the Storyland workshop, we saw a giant book that allowed us to write any kind of story we want, including rewriting Scooby Doo & The Goblin King to make it look like Noddy's Magic Holiday, an old Noddy vinyl record. Boy, was it fun!
If you found that storybook, what story will YOU write in it?
