Theme Notes Series 313: My Family, Your Family My Family, Your Family A family is those who love and care for you. Young children need love and care for their health, well- being, for play and for learning. Families are different and may include mums, dads, cousins, grandparents, aunties and uncles, brothers and sisters and friends. There are many fun things that families can do together like gardening, cooking, or swimming at the pool. In this series of Play School we celebrate a wedding and tell stories about the different things families do together. The Play School toy family also welcome a new baby and we meet some children who introduce us to their families through the windows. Come along as we follow the adventures of the Bottle People Village, some hens and chicks stop by for a visit and we welcome a very special guest – presenter Emma’s baby daughter Anouk!
