Let’s Pretend – The Princess And The Pea. 490403.

There’s another fun packed show in store today. The Pretenders read a fan letter, and respond to it.

Uncle Bill has his cohost Cybil lead the kids to storyland as they beat their tom toms in a parade down the Navajo Trail.

The story of a king and queen is told. They are looking for the ideal person to have their son marry. The young prince tries on his own to find a bride, but turns out to be clumsy at it. When he does find someone he likes, he takes her home to meet mom and dad.

The prince has more run ins with potential maidens for his wedding, but which is the right one? How can he tell? The queen has an idea, and a pea is placed under not only 1, but 20 matresses. After a night’s rest, the true princess is finally identified.

Stay tuned for a short bonus story afterward. See what can be learned from a fig tree, a frog, and a garden.
