Tweenies: Colours Are Magic! [VHS]

Product Information

The Tweenies start the day with some painting. Fizz thinks it would be a good idea to paint rainbows, but Bella decides that the only color for her is red, and so she creates a club where everything has to be red. Jake joins the Red Club but Milo and Fizz decide that they also like many other colors, so they stay in the playroom to finish their rainbows. Bella and Jake manage to find many red things to play with but eventually, they realize that their rules are too strict. When Fizz hears a squeaking noise, she is convinced a mouse is near, so the friends go on a mouse hunt. It was formerly shown on CBeebies, from 11 February 2002 until 1 April 2016.

Every time the phone rings, she thinks it will be her daddy with the news.

Jake is having difficulty keeping up with the others, and when he tries to join in their game, he is told that he is too small. Jake goes to confide in Doodles and realises that although he is smaller than the rest, he has grown and can do lots more things than he used to be able to do. Judy tries to help the others understand how Jake is feeling and since their game is over, due to the ball being lost, they decide to play something they can all join in. Jake finds a treasure stone, which impresses the others. Max helps them to paint stones, then tells a story using stones as illustrations. In the end, each Tweenie has their own treasure stone, and there's even one for Doodles. During a game of piggy-in-the-middle, Jake is teased for being small. Judy suggests that they all dress up to tell the story of the smallest rabbit who managed to banish a herd of elephants from his family's home. They all realize that the smallest person can be the star of the show and Jake enjoys his moment of glory.
