They use the old door raised at one end to find out how well various things will roll down. They build a billycart with wheels and axles from an old pram, a length of timber and a box. Benita sings an action song, 'Johnny Works With One Hammer' then, with the toys aboard, rides down the slope of the old door. It is eight o'clock on the flower clock with a bus on a road, underneath. The story is 'The Bold Bad Bus' by Wilma Horsbrugh. An action song incorporates the main feature of the story (Wheels going round, people bouncing up and down, babies crying). They draw pictures of faces expressing different moods. Benita draws Jemima, then cuts up the picture to make a simple jigsaw puzzle. Through the arched window there is a car assembly line, cars on the road and the crushing of old cars. Benita and John assemble tyres, blocks and a cable reel into a car and sing 'Riding In My Car', before the car falls apart. See less
