FLYNN:
Hm-hm. Hm. Hm. Hm. Hm. Hm-hm-hm. Hm. Hm-hm.
DODLY:
Hiya, Flynn. What are you doing? Oh, hi, Dodly. Well, my toy dinosaurs - hello, little guys, ha-ha - are two years old. So I'm having a birthday party for them. But first I'm making the birthday cake.
DODLY:
That's a great idea. Hm, funny-looking cake.
FLYNN:
Oh, Dodly, those are the ingredients for the cake. I've lined them up in the order that I need to use them, starting from here.
DODLY:
Right, so the first thing you need is... sugar.
FLYNN:
Yep. And the second ingredient, just here next to the sugar, is butter. And next to the butter is an egg. That's my third ingredient. And the fourth ingredient I need to put in is flour.
DODLY:
Mm. Oh, yum, chocolate. That's your last ingredient.
FLYNN:
Yep, my fifth ingredient is chocolate.
DODLY:
Great idea, Flynn, putting all the ingredients in the order that you need to use them.
FLYNN:
Thanks. Hey, Dodly, can you just keep an eye on things while I light the oven?
DODLY:
Sure. I can do more than that. I'll help. (Hums) Right. Sugar first. Butter second. Egg third. Fourth is flour. And last is chocolate. Hm. Now to mix it all up. Hm. Whoo! Ha-ha-ha-ha! (Laughs)
FLYNN:
Dodly, what are you doing?
DODLY:
Helping. I've put all the ingredients in the bowl in order. But something's gone wrong. Maybe the order was wrong.
FLYNN:
Dodly, I was putting them in the order I needed to use them. I still had to do things with them.
DODLY:
Oh. It doesn't look too good. Sorry, Flynn. Let me help you start again.
FLYNN:
Whaaaa... Oh! Oh, goodness me, Dodly! Oh!
DODLY:
It's hard to tell which ingredient was first.
FLYNN:
That's because they're all mixed up.
DODLY:
Yep, they sure are. Hm. Mm! Not bad, though. (Laughs)
FLYNN:
Ohhh.
BOY:
Yesterday, I had a birthday party. # The first to my party was my friend Jane # The second to arrive was my cousin Elaine # And after her came another # My friend Marty He was the third to my party # The fourth in line was cousin Jim # And who do you think came after him? # Fifth to my party with a great big smile # Was a very friendly crocodile. #
DODLY:
(Hums) Here you go, all in a line, and Reddy's first. Good. Hi! Look, Flynn, I've organised a party game with the dinosaurs.
FLYNN:
Good idea. What's the game?
DODLY:
Well, I've lined the six dinosaurs up in order starting from here. And that's 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th. OK? Now, when I call out a position, the dinosaur in that position does a trick, like jump or something.
FLYNN:
They do a trick?
DODLY:
Yep.
FLYNN:
Dodly, I know we're having a birthday party for them, but they're really only plastic animals. They can't do tricks.
DODLY:
Yes, they can. Watch. OK, I want the third dinosaur to do a somersault.
FLYNN:
1, 2, 3.
DODLY:
Mm.
FLYNN:
That's the third dinosaur. And he's not doing anything, Dodly. What did I tell you?
DODLY:
Well, he must be tired. He's been jumping around all day. Right, I want no.5, the fifth dinosaur from here - here - to do a star jump.
FLYNN:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Dodly, the fifth one isn't doing anything.
DODLY:
Oh. First dinosaur, somersault and clap your hands. I don't understand it. They were all playing the game before.
FLYNN:
Sure they were, Dodly. Come on, let's go and see if the cake's ready to come out of the oven.
DODLY:
(Sighs)
FARMER:
Here are my seven sheep lined up to be shorn. Which one is first? The black sheep is first. Which one is third? The purple sheep is third.
SHEEP 1:
1st.
SHEEP 2:
2nd.
SHEEP 3:
3rd.
SHEEP 4:
4th.
SHEEP 5:
5th.
SHEEP 6:
6th.
SHEEP 7:
7th.
FARMER:
Here are my seven sheep piled up high. Which one was the first to start the pile? The blue sheep was first to start the pile. Which sheep should get off first? The yellow sheep on top should get down first. But did it?
SHEEP:
No!
CHILD:
On school days, I do things in a special order. The first thing I do is get out of bed. The second thing I do is get dressed. The fourth thing I do is clean my teeth. The fifth thing I do is walk to school with Mum. But today I forgot to do something, and I'm really hungry. I wonder what it was.
FLYNN:
(Hums) Ha! (Laughs) Well done, no.5.
DODLY:
Oh, wow! Pin the tail on the donkey! That's where you have to see who can put the tail closest to the 'X' on the donkey's bottom. Ha! That's my favourite game. Have the dinosaurs finished playing?
FLYNN:
Yep. Well, I mean, I've finished playing for the dinosaurs.
DODLY:
Hm. Why have the tails got numbers on them?
FLYNN:
So I can tell which tail belongs to which dinosaur. See? For the first dinosaur, I put no.1 on the tail. That's its go. And for the dinosaur which had the second go, I put no.2. And for the third go, I put no.3. And for the fourth, no.4. Which tail do you think belongs to the dinosaur which had the fifth go?
DODLY:
The tail with '5' on it.
FLYNN:
That's right. Now let's see who got closest to the 'X'. Hm, no.4 Which means that the dinosaur who had the fourth go won.
DODLY:
Hey, hang on, Flynn, I've just noticed something.
FLYNN:
What?
DODLY:
Well, you've got five tails on the donkey, but look how many dinosaurs you've got. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. You should have no.6 for the sixth dinosaur.
FLYNN:
Hm, that's strange. I don't have any tails left. Hm.
DODLY:
You know, Flynn, those dinosaurs can be very tricky.
FLYNN:
Dodly, I've already told you, the dinosaurs are plastic. I stuck the tails on.
DODLY:
Well, why did you stick one on yourself?
FLYNN:
I didn't!
DODLY:
(Laughs)
FLYNN:
Where did that come from?
DODLY:
Dinosaurs. (Laughs)
FLYNN:
Oh!
GIRL:
I think today I'll go for a fly. It's amazing the things you can see from the sky. You know, to fly, I need to eat lots of ice-cream. In fact, I bought an ice-cream first thing this morning. I wanted an ice-cream like the one in the picture. The first flavour the ice-cream man puts on is chocolate. The second flavour is strawberry. The third flavour is banana. The fourth flavour is lime. And fifth and last is vanilla. The minute I got my ice-cream, I knew that something was missing. My third flavour, banana. I was very polite as I told the ice-cream man that I really like my flavours to be in the right order. Where does my banana flavour belong? I was very grateful. Bye! Got to fly!
FLYNN:
Dodly, Dodly, Dodly, I've lost the birthday cake. I can't find it anywhere. Hey, is that pass the parcel?
DODLY:
Yep. You can't have a party for dinosaurs without pass the parcel.
FLYNN:
Oh, that's for sure. How many pieces of paper did you use?
DODLY:
Hm, I'm not too sure. Let me think. I wrapped the surprise with one piece of paper. That was the first piece. Then I put on a second piece, so that's two. Then after that, I put on four more pieces, so that's 3, 4, 5, 6 - six pieces of paper.
FLYNN:
Excellent. And what's the surprise that you've wrapped?
DODLY:
Oh, actually, I can't quite remember exactly, but I know it was something fantastic to do with birthdays.
FLYNN:
Is it a party hat?
DODLY:
No.
FLYNN:
A whistle?
DODLY:
No. I just can't remember. But it was something.
FLYNN:
Oh, OK. Well, I'll unwrap the parcel so I can see what the surprise is. Then we can wrap it up again.
DODLY:
OK.
FLYNN:
So I'm starting to unwrap from here. So this outside piece is the first piece I'll take off. Ha-ha-ha. And now, this is the second piece. Hm-hm. Now I'm up to the third piece. Now, this is the fourth piece. Now, you said there were six pieces, so I must be getting close.
DODLY:
You sure are! That's the fifth piece.
FLYNN:
OK, so this is the sixth piece. It must be the last. The surprise must be in here. This is so exciting! It almost makes up for losing the birthday cake. (Gasps) The birthday cake! What have you done to the birthday cake?! I thought it was lost, but it's all squashed.
DODLY:
Birthday cake, that's right! Oh! Now I remember. Oh, excellent! Now, where are those dinosaurs? # Happy birthday, dear dinosaurs Happy birthday to you. #
FLYNN:
Poor cake. Poor thing. Oh! Oh!
