An illustration shows a little girl and a grey-haired older woman. The little girl holds a stuffed panda.

Green text reads: JoJo and Gran Gran.

(Music playing)

An animated blue front door opens, and a cartoon man and a woman smile. JoJo runs outside and greets Gran Gran.

Singing, JOJO AND GRAN GRAN. TAKE MY HAND AND COME WITH ME

JoJo and Gran Gran walk off hand in hand on a city sidewalk. A person walking a dog waves before being pulled away by the dog.

Singing, ON A JOURNEY THROUGH OUR STREETS WE'LL SAY HELLO TO EVERYBODY THAT WE MEET.

It is raining and JoJo and Gran Gran hold umbrellas and wear raincoats. JoJo jumps in a puddle.

Singing, THROUGH THE YEAR, AS SEASONS CHANGE EXPLORING EVERY DAY TAKE OUR TIME TO STOP AND PLAY.

It is springtime and there are pink blossoms on trees in a park. Butterflies fly up toward the sun. JoJo does a cartwheel on green grass. She rolls down a hill, holding the panda. Gran Gran rolls down after her.

Singing, AND WHEN THE SPRINGTIME BLOSSOM TURN TO SUMMER SUN JOJO LIKES TO GET OUTSIDE GRAN GRAN ALWAYS MAKES IT FUN.

JoJo tosses autumn leaves in the air. It snows and a person on the sidewalk makes a snowman. Gran Gran and JoJo walk by in coats and scarves.

Singing, WHEN THE AUTUMN RAINFALL TURNS TO WINTER SNOW I KNOW A SPECIAL PLACE, A PLACE WHERE WE CAN GO.

It is warmer weather and JoJo wears a light jacket and a backpack. She takes Gran Gran’s hand. Gran Gran opens a front gate to JoJo’s home.

Singing, TAKE MY HAND, WE'RE HEADING HOME WITH JOJO AND GRAN GRAN

JoJo and Gran Gran smile.

A title reads: JoJo & Gran Gran.

Text reads: It’s Time for a Special Visitor. Written by Rose Johnson & Camille Ucan

JoJo narrates, IT’S TIME FOR A SPECIAL VISITOR.

Gran Gran narrates, IT WAS A COLD WINTER AFTERNOON. THE TREES WERE BARE, AND THE AIR WAS FROSTY. AND JOJO AND GRAN GRAN-- THAT'S ME-- WERE WAITING FOR MUMMY AND DADDY TO BRING BACK A SPECIAL VISITOR FROM THE AIRPORT.

JoJo peeks through a mail slot in the front door.

JoJo asks, WHERE ARE THEY, GRAN GRAN?

(Chuckling)

Gran Gran says, THEY'LL BE BACK SOON, JOJO.

JoJo spins around.

JoJo says, OOH! I'M SO EXCITED, PANDA. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE BEST... DAY... EVER.

(Horn honking)

(Gasping)

JoJo says, THEY'RE BACK! THEY'RE BACK! GRAN GRAN, THEY'RE BACK!

(Laughing)

JoJo and Gran Gran go to the front door.

(Doorbell ringing)

Gran Gran opens the door. Great Gran Gran is there with Mummy and Daddy. Great Gran Gran wears a yellow hat, glasses and big gold earrings.

JoJo cries, OOH! GREAT GRAN GRAN!

Great Gran Gran says, JOJO, MY LITTLE SUNSHINE! HOW LOVELY TO SEE YOU!

JoJo and Great Gran Gran hug.

(Music playing)

Live-action children sit together in pairs.

A blonde-haired child says, I VISIT MY GRAN EVERY EVERY WEDNESDAY.

The blonde-haired child says, MY GRANDAD LIVES IN IRELAND, AND HE COMES OVER TO SEE ME.

The brown-haired child says, IF I HAD TO VISIT MY GRANDPARENTS, I WOULD HAVE TO GO TO THE AIRPORT AND GET SIGNED IN AND CHECKED OUT, EVERYTHING. IT WOULD TAKE A LOT OF TIME.

The blonde-haired child says, MY GRANDAD GIVES ME IRISH CHOCOLATE.

A child in a blue sweater asks, AND IS IT YUMMY?

The blonde-haired child says, YUMMY, YUMMY IN MY TUMMY.

(Music playing)

Daddy carries suitcases, while Mummy hangs up coats.

Gran Gran says, AH, I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE, MAMA!

Great Gran Gran says, OH, ME, TOO! AND JOJO, THE LAST TIME I VISITED, YOU ONLY CAME UP TO HERE.

JoJo says, NOW, I COME UP TO HERE.

Great Gran Gran tickles JoJo.

(Laughing)

(Sighing)

Daddy says, OKAY, GREAT GRAN GRAN. THAT'S YOUR LUGGAGE IN THE SPARE ROOM.

Great Gran Gran says, THANK YOU, MAXWELL. YOU'VE EARNED A BOWL OF SOUP. COME, SIT.

Daddy asks, DID YOU LEAVE ANYTHING IN ST. LUCIA? IT FEELS LIKE YOU PACKED THE WHOLE ISLAND.

(All laughing)

(Soup slurping)

Great Gran Gran says, MMM! I TAUGHT YOU WELL, GRAN GRAN. THIS SOUP IS DELICIOUS!

JoJo says, I CAN'T WAIT TO SHOW YOU ALL OF MY FAVOURITE PLACES, GREAT GRAN GRAN.

Mummy says, GREAT GRAN GRAN MIGHT WANT TO RELAX TODAY, JOJO. TRAVELLING FROM ST. LUCIA TAKES A VERY LONG TIME.

Great Gran Gran says, NO, NO, NO! I WAS SAT FOR HOURS ON THAT PLANE. I'D LOVE TO GET OUT AND STRETCH MY LEGS.

(Music playing)

Great Gran Gran wears her hat and coat. She and the others stand outside on a sidewalk.

Great Gran Gran asks, SO, JOJO, WHERE ARE WE GOING?

JoJo says, THE FARM, THE MUSEUM, THE PARK, AND THE CAFE! I LIKE THE CAFE MOST, BECAUSE IT HAS YUMMY HOT CHOCOLATE. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BEST DAY EVER.

(Music playing)

(Llama neighing)

(Laughing)

JoJo and the other walk by a pond.

(Ducks quacking)

Great Gran Gran says, COLD? NO, NO, NO! IT'S HOT, HOT, HOT!

(All laughing)

Gran Gran says, I KNOW WHAT WILL WARM US UP, JOJO.

JoJo says, YUMMY HOT CHOCOLATE! THIS WILL REALLY MAKE IT THE BEST DAY EVER, GREAT GRAN GRAN.

They walk to an outdoor café. It is shuttered.

(Gasping)

JoJo says, OH, NO.

Daddy says, OH, IT LOOKS LIKE THE CAFE'S JUST CLOSED, JOJO.

Mummy says, WE'VE HAD SUCH A FUN DAY THAT WE LOST TRACK OF TIME.

JoJo says, BUT I WANTED GREAT GRAN GRAN TO TRY THE YUMMY HOT CHOCOLATE!

Great Gran Gran says, YOU KNOW, JOJO, IN ST. LUCIA, WE CALL IT COCOA TEA.

JoJo says, COCOA TEA? OOH.

Gran Gran says, HMM. JOJO, I THINK IT'S TIME FOR A GRAN GRAN PLAN. WE CAN MAKE OUR OWN YUMMY COCOA TEA, JUST LIKE GREAT GRAN GRAN. BUT WE'LL NEED TO VISIT JARED'S SHOP FIRST.

(Music playing)

Jared says, THESE COCOA STICKS ARE FROM ST. LUCIA, JUST LIKE GREAT GRAN GRAN!

Great Gran Gran cries, WHOI!

(All laughing)

Cocoa is poured into a mug. JoJo and her family sit in Gran Gran’s kitchen. They all drink.

All say, MMM.

Great Gran Gran says, THIS REALLY HAS BEEN THE BEST DAY EVER, AND CAN YOU GUESS WHY, JOJO?

JoJo asks, WAS IT THE FARM? OOH, THE MUSEUM? OR THE YUMMY COCOA TEA?

Great Gran Gran says, NO, NO, NO! IT'S THE BEST DAY EVER BECAUSE I'M SPENDING IT WITH MY FAMILY.

Gran Gran says, AW.

Everyone drinks again.

All say, MMM!
