Whistling

Storyteller: It is a lovely sunny morning. And Daddy Pig is reading his news paper.

Peppa: Daddy what are you doing?

Daddy: I'm reading the newspaper.

Peppa: You are making a funny sound.

Daddy: I'm whistling! Uh! Whistling is fun. You should try it!

Peppa: I don't know how to.

Daddy: It's easy! Just put your lips together and blow! Try making a smaller 'o' shape. Like this! And then you could whistle a tune.

Peppa: Oh, I've got the wrong kind of mouth.

Daddy: Your mouth is fine! You just need to practice.

Peppa: It's impossible!

Daddy: It takes time to learn how to do important things like riding a bicycle or playing the piano. It took me years to learn how to wiggle my ears.

Peppa: Wow!

Storyteller: Mommy Pig is in the kitchen making cookies.

Mummy: What are you doing, Peppa?

Peppa: I'm learning to whistle.

Mummy: Oh, I see.

Peppa: Mommy, can you whistle?

Mummy: I don't know. I've never tried.

Peppa: It takes a lot of practice.Oh, yes!

Storyteller: Mommy Pig can whistle.

Peppa: You can whistle because you are old, mommy.

Mummy: Thank you, Peppa.

Storyteller: George is in the bedroom, playing with his toy rocket.

Peppa: George, I'm learning to whistle. You make an 'o' shape with your mouth and blow. Don't worry George. It's almost impossible like wiggling your ears.

Storyteller: George can wiggle his ears.

Peppa: Whistling is harder.

Storyteller: George can whistle!

Mummy: What's wrong, Peppa?

Peppa: I can't whistle but everybody else can.

Mummy: Never mind. I'm making cookies. Would you like to lip a spoon?

Peppa: No. Thank you. Mommy Can I ring Suzie sheep instead?

Mummy: Ok Peppa.

Mrs. Sheep: Hello Mrs. Pig.

Mummy: Hello Mrs. Sheep. Can Peppa talk to Suzie please?

Peppa: Hello Suzie.

Suzy: Hello Peppa. What're you doing?

Peppa: I'm learning to whistle but I can't do it yet.

Suzy: That sounds hard!

Peppa: It's impossible. Uh…Can you whistle Suzie? 

Suzy: No.

Peppa: Oh good! I mean that's so difficult whistle. But good.

Because I can't whistle.

Suzy: What's whistling anyway?

Peppa: You put your lips together and blow.

Suzy: Like this? Hello? Peppa?

Mummy: Good cookies are ready!

Daddy: Oh! Goody! Cookies!

Mummy: They will be hot! You should blow on them first.

Do you not want cookie Peppa?

Peppa: No, thank you mommy. I think I might go outside and be on my own for a little bit.

Daddy: Can you whistle yet?

Peppa: It's no use daddy. I'm never going to whistle. Ever!

Daddy: Have you been practicing?

Peppa: Yes, lots.. But it doesn't work!

Mummy: You need a little rest, Peppa. Here have a cookie.

It's hot. You should blow.

Peppa: Oh! What's that?

Daddy: It sounded like a whistle to me!

Mummy: What a lovely tune!

Storyteller: Peppa has learned how to whistle!

Peppa: I can whistle!
