Grandma and two kids make jam!

This 1992 tale of complete anarchy in the kitchen will definitely appeal to children more than parents and grandparents, who will cover their eyes at the mess that is made! Told in a very funky style, it's the story of Freddy and Muff, two most energetic children who pick berries and hand them to their Grandma. The rest is history, and believe you me, it's messy. A sample line: " What's next? Mash and smash the berries! Little blops of juice squirt everywhere!" I certainly won't give away the ending, but suffice it to say that all's well that ends well. As a mother, I was exhausted by the messiness, but kids find it hysterically funny!
