In a spring meadow, Little Nutbrown Hare and Little Field Mouse decide to build their own nest to play in. They gather twigs, leaves and grass and keep fixing it as it turns out too weak, too prickly and then too tight for them both. When it no longer suits them, they offer it to a squirrel, a fox and Big Nutbrown Hare before it finally becomes a home for a bird. They end the day playing with friends, deciding the whole meadow is their own great big nest.

With her friend Bob Dog cheering her on, she tries again and again and falls every time. Bob Dog shares how he learned to balance a bone on his nose by keeping his head still and focusing on a tree, and Donkey realizes her own head has been moving.

The Royal Sandcastle Builders

At a sunny beach, King Friday sets out to build a royal sandcastle but keeps getting frustrated when it does not work. Donkey Hodie and Purple Panda join him as the Royal Sandcastle Builders and discover that each of them calms down a different way, by running in small circles, by playing the bongos, or by doing a slow stretch. Once they have managed their frustration, they work out that adding water makes the sand hold together. They finish a castle that looks just like King Friday's real one.

The Potato Stand

The friends change their plan and use Grampy's potato washer-dryer-sorter-dumper machine to do that chore for everyone instead. The neighbours are grateful, and Donkey ends the day feeling potato proud, just like Grampy.
