Franny's Feet

Say Jamaica/Pink Flamingos

Season 1, Episode 10 of 13

A) Franny whirls and twirls to Jamaica, where she meets Johnny, a boy who has a new camera. Johnny wants to take pictures of exciting things for his album, but he thinks that Jamaica is boring. Franny, with the help of a parrot, helps him see his island home through new eyes. In Franny's Treasures, Franny and Bobby ask the audience for help in counting mangos for a beach party. B) Franny travels to the Bahamas, where she meets Tippy, a young flamingo who is learning to fly. First, Tippy practices standing on one leg, but she is so nervous and self-conscious she keeps falling down. The more she falls, the more nervous and discouraged she gets. When Tippy and Franny play follow the leader with some other flamingos, Tippy has so much fun, she loses her fear, stands on one leg, and flies like a champ. In Franny's Treasures, Franny and Bobby help the audience learn about what and how flamingos eat, and why they stand on one leg.
