- 4:20Speaker 1: going deeper and deeper into this enchanting forest, when you
- 4:25Speaker 1: stumble upon a cosy clearing. And this clearing's filled with flowers.
- 4:32Speaker 1: But you can also see a table, a beautifully set table,
- 4:38Speaker 1: and you can see cakes and jellies, sweets and fruits.
- 4:43Speaker 2: It has nuts and berries.
- 4:46Speaker 3: Wow!
- 4:48Speaker 1: It looks like an afternoon tea party, hosted by the
- 4:51Speaker 1: fairies and the elves, just for you. You notice the
- 4:56Speaker 1: tablecloth as you step closer, and you see how it's
- 4:59Speaker 1: embroidered with beautiful, delicate patterns. And you see the silverware
- 5:05Speaker 1: and the dainty teacups with little rose patterns on the side.
- 5:10Speaker 1: and the air is fragrant with the aroma of the
- 5:13Speaker 1: freshly baked cream cakes, jellies and trifles, just enticing your senses.
- 5:21Speaker 1: And it smells so good, you can almost taste it.
- 5:26Speaker 1: But you haven't even taken a bite yet. The fairies
- 5:31Speaker 1: and the elves tell you to take a seat at
- 5:35Speaker 1: the table, and they too flutter around, and then settle
- 5:40Speaker 1: down on their little chairs too. They tell you that
- 5:43Speaker 1: you may eat as much as you like because there
- 5:45Speaker 1: is lots to go around. The fairies and the elves
- 5:50Speaker 1: just love to share what they have. They do it
- 5:53Speaker 1: all the time. If they come across someone, or even
- 5:58Speaker 1: a little animal, who they think might need some food
- 6:01Speaker 1: or a drink maybe, then they give it to them.
- 6:05Speaker 1: They will give whatever is needed. They always want to
- 6:09Speaker 1: make sure that no one goes without anything. They are
- 6:13Speaker 1: so beautiful, so kind and caring. So, enjoy the delightful
- 6:22Speaker 1: treats they are sharing with you. Savour each bite and
- 6:27Speaker 1: let the flavours dance on your tongue.
- 6:30Speaker 2: Oh, it tastes so good.
- 6:33Speaker 1: And as you begin to eat, the fairies and the
- 6:36Speaker 1: elves begin to talk. They tell you all about themselves
- 6:41Speaker 1: and where they live. They tell you what they do
- 6:45Speaker 1: with their days, how they spend them. And they tell
- 6:49Speaker 1: you about who and how they've shared things with. They
- 6:54Speaker 1: even share their toys too. So enjoy your lovely food
- 6:59Speaker 1: and your drink. And enjoy the conversation with your newfound
- 7:04Speaker 1: magical friends sharing laughter and stories. And don't forget to
- 7:09Speaker 1: tell them about your life and where you live. And
- 7:14Speaker 1: tell them about the things that you share with your
- 7:16Speaker 1: family and friends too. So just for a little while,
- 7:22Speaker 1: share your stories with the fairies and the elves. Just
- 7:27Speaker 1: for a little while.

- 9:37Speaker 1: play enchanting party games with them. They invite you to
- 9:41Speaker 1: play a game of hide and seek amongst the trees.
- 9:44Speaker 1: And after that, maybe you can dance in circles to

- 10:09Speaker 1: the fairies and the elves and have some fun.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Now that the games are over and the sun begins
- 12:15Speaker 1: to set, the fairies extend a special invitation for a
- 12:21Speaker 1: sleepover with them in their cosy, flower-adorned homes. The fairies
- 12:28Speaker 1: live in a very special, big wooden house and they
- 12:31Speaker 1: all live together. It's white, with a blue trim all
- 12:35Speaker 1: around the colourful roof. Whilst the elves, well, They live
- 12:41Speaker 1: inside the very large trees. You hadn't noticed before but
- 12:46Speaker 1: all of the trees have little doors and little windows
- 12:49Speaker 1: in them. And this is where the elves live. So
- 12:56Speaker 1: you say goodnight and thank you to the elves for
- 12:59Speaker 1: letting you join in their tea party and playing games
- 13:02Speaker 1: with them. And then you follow the fairies into the
- 13:07Speaker 1: wonderful house. You go up the winding stairway and into
- 13:14Speaker 1: the most amazing room. It's filled with lots and lots
- 13:19Speaker 1: of beds. And each fairy has its own bed in
- 13:23Speaker 1: their very own favourite colour. They have a bed for
- 13:28Speaker 1: you too. And they have big squishy pillows for you
- 13:32Speaker 1: to lay your head on. And the most amazing colourful blankets.
- 13:38Speaker 1: And they're made of flower petals. How wonderful is that?
- 13:45Speaker 1: There is a night table next to every bed with
- 13:48Speaker 1: a little glass jar on it and inside the jar
- 13:52Speaker 1: are tiny little fireflies giving off the most wonderful, peaceful
- 13:58Speaker 1: and calming glow.
- 14:00Speaker 2: So pretty.
- 14:04Speaker 1: So you lay down on your soft bed and cover
- 14:08Speaker 1: yourself with the blanket made of flower petals. That it's
- 14:12Speaker 1: so warm and cosy and so soft. And you watch
- 14:17Speaker 1: the gentle glow of the fireflies in their jars.
