"I think that's quite enough for today." Mr Shoe decided. The nursery rhyme club moaned. They liked the trip to the playground. They came at least once a week, and everyone enjoyed it. Well, Tina was a bit too quiet to share her opinion, so the other kids just presumed she didn't have one.

"Get in pairs! We will walk back in a nice line, okay?"

Mikey and Tina, Quinnie and Noah, Brittany and Santana, Finn and Rachel (they were very friendly today), Kurt and Mercedes, and Artie at the back on his own. Artie looked very sad, all alone.


The Nursery Rhyme Club walked across the little bridge back to William McKinley High School, their beloved school. It was a very pretty school, run by the quiet headmistress Sue Sylvester.

The children went back to the Nursery Rhyme Club room. It was late afternoon by now, and it was getting very dark. The children were getting cold, waiting for their parents. They sat in a circle and sang Humpty Dumpty Sat on The Wall (all solos by Rachel). Brittany and Santana sat in the corner reading a book called Teddy Bears Go To School. They liked the pictures very much, because they both liked fluffy Teddy Bears.

There was a knock on the door. It was Mrs Hummel, coming to pick up her son.

Kurt ran to the door and hugged his Mommy. Mercedes waved them off.
