It is playtime at Peppa's playgroup.

-STOP!

-Mr. Bull! What are you doing to our playground?

-We're digging it up!

Mr. Bull loves digging.

-Hello!

-Daddy! Why are you here?

-I'm working with Mr. Bull.

-Oooh!

-It looks like Mr. Bull is doing all the work.

-Mr. Bull just builds the playground. I do the hard bit: planning it all.

-Ahh!

-I've worked it all out with science.

-That sounds very interesting, Daddy Pig.

-It is!

-Would you like to teach the children some simple science?

-It would be my pleasure! Let's start by doing an experiment!

-What is an experiment?

-It's a way to?find?something out that we don't know. Like, how many children does it take to lift Madame Gazelle?

-One!

-A hundred!

-Ten hundred!

-You're all just guessing.

-What's the answer?

-I don't know. But we can use an experiment to find out! Who wants to try and lift Madame Gazelle?

-Me! Me! I can't lift her.

Madame Gazelle is too heavy for one child to lift.

-Let's try two children.

-She's very heavy.

Madame Gazelle is too heavy for two children to lift.

-Let's try three children.

-Hurray!

It takes three children to lift Madame Gazelle!

-We just did some simple science.

-It was fun!

-Let's do another experiment.

-Yes!

-Make a tower of blocks. Very good! But the tower looks a bit wobbly.

-Oh.

-How can we make the tower less wobbly?

-Emmm.

-Put the big blocks at the bottom and the small blocks at the top!

-Fantastic!

Edmond Elephant is a cleverclogs.

-Can we do more experiments?

-Of course. Who can tell me their favourite game?

-Jumping up and down in muddy puddles!

-And what do we need to make a muddy puddle?

-Dirt and water.

-"Dirt and water." Mix them together, to make a muddy puddle. Peppa, please test the puddle?

-This puddle is too dry!

-Let's add some more water... Please jump again, Peppa.

-This puddle is just right! Nice and muddy.

-And making muddy puddles is a bit like making concrete! Concrete is what we're using to make your new playground. It starts off wet and soft like mud, then it sets and goes hard forever!

-Wooo!

-Right now, it is gloopy like custard. Let me show you. See? It's very soft. But who can tell me, what's going to happen next?

-The concrete will go hard.

-Exactly. It will set as hard as rock!

-Er, Daddy Pig, I think you should?step out of there before...

-I'll be with you in a moment, Mr. Bull. I'm just talking to the children.

-Yes, but...

-You see, the concrete is soft, still soft...and now...hard!

-Wow!

-All thanks to a bit of simple science! Now Mr. Bull, what was it you were saying?

-I was trying to say, you should get out before the concrete goes hard.

-Ah.

Daddy Pig is stuck!

-Don't worry, Daddy Pig! I'll have you out in a jiffy!

-How?

-I'll dig up the playground!

Daddy Pig loves being dug out of concrete. Everyone loves being dug out of concrete.?
