aka ep150.1 Noni and Don explain the mechanics of the Play School calendar and show this week's pictures (of a chicken hatching from an egg). The poem of the week 'Tomorrow I'll Be Five...' is said over pictures. The presenters prepare for a birthday party. Don makes a birthday present (a Jack-in-the-box) and sings Jack in the Box. Other presents include a drawing book, a paper hat and a cardboard birthday cake with paddlepop stick candles. They sing 'Five Little Candles' and 'Happy Birthday'. The clock shows four o'clock. The story is 'Happy Birthday, Sam', followed by the 'Up and Down' song. Noni plays a guessing game (What will this be when it grows up?) with pictures of a kitten/cat, caterpillar/butterfly, chicken/rooster and baby/man. Don mimes 'This is the Way we Wash the Baby'. Noni does a finger game 'This is my Sister', using a rubber glove with faces drawn on the fingers.
