Boxes

Synopsis:
Bernie moves into a house with all his belongings only to find that his tea turns into coffee, his flowers disappear and someone has been sleeping in his bed - when suddenly he comes face to face with the mysterious Elton. A witty tale of friendship unfolds as Bernie and Elton discover it's much easier to enjoy a cup of tea together than fight over whose table setting is best. A sweet story packed with humour, tricks and clever puppetry perfect for the whole family.

Guji Guji

Synopsis:
Guji Guji is the story of a large unhatched egg that rolled down a hill and into a duck's nest. The Mother Duck was reading so she never noticed the extra egg, even though it was much bigger than all the rest. When the eggs began to crack, she called the first one Crayon, the second Zebra and the third Moonlight. The fourth and largest egg cracked and said Guji Guji, so that became his name.
