Stop-frame animation. Nestling in gently rolling hills is Timmy's nursery school, housed in old farm buildings. Complete with messy play area, story corner and garden, it is the perfect spot for a young lamb to find his place in the world. Timmy's class go on a picnic, but during a game of football the ball bursts on Apricot's spikes. Apricot feels guilty that the little animals no longer have a ball to play with, but soon finds a good use for her prickly spikes - picking up the picnic litter.
