Whoosh Around the Mulberry Bush starts with children dancing round the mulberry bush and then sets off around the world to show all sorts of animal capers, including hens pecking around the chicken coop, monkeys swinging around the jungle vines, polar bears and arctic hares sliding around the icicles, and zebras kicking their heels around the waterhole.
