Na Dódaí argue about who is the tallest – then sing their ‘big and small’ song.  Then they find magical shapes on the floor, and play a  fun guessing game, where they identify different shapes. We visit Scoil an Droichid where we see children playing with shapes.  Ruairí and Roise sing their shapes song, and they do a special dance, using their bodies to make different shapes. Nóra tells the story of the lion and the mouse, and Na Dódaí recreate the story using song and dance.

Na Dódaí, Imagine Media’s landmark series for young Irish learners, is produced for BBC NI with support from the Irish Language Broadcast Fund. The series received a Golden Torc at the Celtic Media Festival in 2009.

Na Dódaí are: Nuala Ní Néill, Aoife Nic Ardghail, Miléne Ní Fhaogáin and Póla Ní Gharmaile.
