  1. Episode 21

    21. A handful of magic and a body full of movement

    Celebrate your new baby's exploration of their hands with our playrhyme, Handy Pandy Sugar Candy, and dance them into whole-body awareness with our playsong, We Love Baby. These two, easily-memorised and engaging ways to play with your little one can be shared with them from their earliest days and throughout their journey from babyhood to toddlerhood.

  2. Episode 22

    22. Peeketty peek, hide and seek

    We're playing the universal game of peekaboo, a game that babies and toddlers, the world over, love to play. So hide your face behind your hands, and play our rhyme, Hide and Seek, and our all-time favourite peekboo song, Can you play at peekaboo?

  3. Episode 23

    23. Tickle play with Wiggle Worm and Ticklebird

    Join us and our two little tickly friends - Wiggle Worm and Ticklebird - to gently caress and tease those smiles out of your baby or toddler.

  4. Episode 25

    25. Upside down with the fishes and the ducks

    We’ve got two whole body upside downers for you and your baby or toddler to play with us. We’re catching fishes Underneath the Water, and playing heads down, tails up with the Dabbling Ducks.
 Sandra Kerr and Leon Rosselson are the rhymers and singers in this episode full of dangling (safely) upside down - it’s Playsongs Playtime.

  5. Episode 26

    26. Rig a jig jig and away we go

    A couple of Silly Billies give us a daft little game of tangled feet when Bill Anderson and Tom Sim get into a tussle, which slides baby off your knee and onto the floor. Meantime we meet our friends in a happy little leg-walker which lifts off into a glorious high-lifting knee-bouncer, or babe-in-arms dance with Rig a jig jig and away we go. Action time for babies and toddlers with Kevin Graal rhyming, Sandra Kerr singing, and Leon Rosselson on banjo. 
It’s Playsongs Playtime.

  6. Episode 27

    27. Knock at the Door and Look who comes here!

    Sound exploring can be a noisy business, but we’re starting it very very quietly for your very very tiny baby as we gently play our rhyme Knock at the Door. But then, we open the door, and in come a noisy band singing Look who comes here to introduce a dolly, tapping on baby’s high chair, a caterwauling kitten, and a kazoo-croaking frog chorus. Let the sound exploration begin - with Kevin Graal rhyming, and Janet Russell, Sandra Kerr and Leon Rosselson singing, tapping, caterwauling and croaking - it’s Playsongs Playtime.

  7. Episode 28

    28. Fly high with a crow and land on a donkey

    High rise hoists are a joy for a baby, sturdy enough to support their head, and for a toddler - as long as you still have the strength to lift them above your head! So get ready for some energetic exercise with Catch him Crow rhymed by Leon Rosselson and a cascade of falling apples, and our Donkey Riding call and response, shanty song with Janet Russell, singing the calls, and Sandra Kerr, singing the responses - her concertina accompanying both - it’s Playsongs Playtime.

  8. Episode 29

    29. Happy Nappy time with Bananas in Pyjamas

    A happy, clappy chorus of celebration for a nice clean nappy - no tears or fuss with a rhyme like this for baby to look forward to. Our Happy Nappy celebration is rhymed by Kevin Graal, ably accompanied by the Nappy Chorus, and our Bananas in Pyjamas song will get baby cheerfully dressed for bed (or going out) in no time with Sandra Kerr and Leon Rosselson singing it and teaching you the words line by line. It’s Playsongs Playtime.

  9. Episode 30

    30. Nighttime Hugs and Moontime Love

    A winding down, gentle, rocking episode, perfect for a quiet moment of calm or to soothe baby into nighttime sleep with Hugs, rhymed by author, Kaye Umansky, and with Kevin Graal and Stephen Chadwick providing the soundscape. Then a tune you’ll very likely find very familiar, but have never heard sung as a lullaby - until Mummy Went up to the Moon and Back with Debbie Sanders singing and Steve Grocott accompanying. It’s Playsongs Playtime.
