|
Intro | On its travels, the Boohball flies to the UK and Namibia.
In the US version, the Boohball travels to Japan, Ecuador and China. |
|
Warm-Up | The Boohbahs follow Zing Zing Zingbah's lead as they start their day with a set of "Swingy Twirls" (swinging their arms from side to side and twirling around to either direction). |
|
Storyworld | Sister, and then Brother, have fun hiding their partner behind a window's curtains. When Sister vanishes, the children blow in two more windows for Brother to look for her behind - but not before finding Grandpappa and Grandmamma first. |
|
Boohbah Dance | Hide Your Heads and Feet: The Boohbahs jump and bounce around, play a game of "peek-bah-booh", then jump and bounce around some more.
The Boohbahs do the "Hiding in a Line" dance in the version of this episode that appears on the American "Big Windows" video. |
Trivia[]
- This is the first episode with the "Swingy Twirls" warm-up and the "Hide Your Heads and Feet" dance.
- This is the only episode that does not pair the "Swingy Twirls" warm-up with the Egypt & India intro.
- This episode has the same present giving sequence as "Jigsaw".
- The "somebody's coming" music doesn't play for when Grandmamma and Grandpappa show up.
- This is the first episode where Brother is (temporarily) seen without Sister.
- This is the third and last time in which a child doesn't sing "Boohbah..." as soon as the dance ends. The first time was in "Pearly Shells", and the second time was in "Musical Pipe".
- The voiceover is kept intact, however, in the American broadcast version.
