Cats - Witches and Balance Play School : Season 16 Episode 24

aka ep170.4 Benita and John make a cat mobile using black cardboard cut-outs, a coathanger and string. John sings 'The Black Cat' while we look at the Black Cat animation. Benita mimes being a black cat. John dresses as a witch with a newspaper witches' hat. Diddle the Cat is his helper. He mixes up a 'Magic Stew' and uses it to make spells on the toys. Benita, also a witch, enters on a broomstick and takes Diddle flying. Benita and John then use the broomstick to do a limbo dance. The broomstick becomes a horse as John 'gallops' and 'trots' and sings 'Gee Up Neddy'. Benita adds a cardboard witch on a twig broomstick to the cat mobile. She sings 'Five Old Witches'. The story is 'Meg's Car'. Benita is a flying car that vrooms about. She sings 'Zoom' then loses her balance and 'crashes'. John has a wobbly cat made from a large plastic soft drink bottle with a rounded bottom. He is pushing dough into the bottle to 'balance' the cat. He sings 'You Can Stamp Your Feet'. The film shows a family bike riding in a park. Benita and John sing 'Round and Round' as they pedal.
