Picture Planes

What’s it all about?

When Sarah & Duck are racing paper planes, they chance upon an exciting discovery.

This is the episode where:

• Sarah & Duck decide decide to make paper aeroplanes and have a competition to see whose flies the furthest. Duck’s scrunched up bit of paper goes further than Sarah’s plane, making him the winner!

• Sarah wants to make another plane and try again – she hasn’t got any new sheets of paper so recycles some of her old drawings

• A plane made from Sarah’s drawing of lemons flies all around then lands in a bowl of lemons. The plane made from her picture of Flamingo & John flies all the way to Flamingo and John’s house!

• John wants to know how far the planes can fly and wonders if they can reach the pyramids in Egypt – Sarah draws some pyramids and makes a new plane, but her drawing looks like the hay bails in Donkey’s field, and that’s where the plane ends up.

• John researches the best way to make a plane and Sarah looks up how to draw pyramids. They take a photo of themselves to put in the cockpit of their new plane and send it off, confident it will fly the long distance to the pyramids.

• The next morning their plane arrives back. Folded inside is a photo of boy and an Ibis standing next to a pyramid, and an Egyptian picture of Sarah, Duck, John and Flamingo. When they unfold the plane, sand from the desert falls out and lands on Duck’s head!
