Pikkuli

Mommy and Daddy Byrd's kids Sister and Brother hatch swiftly and easily, but their youngest, Pikkuli, needs some encouragement. Eventually Pikkuli does break the eggshell, but he's scared of everything new. Will he ever step outside the nest?

Daddy teaches the fledglings to fly. Sister and Brother learn quickly, but Pikkuli is too scared to try. Disappointed, he hops through the forest towards a pond. Who will he meet there? Can birds learn to swim - even when they can't fly?

Pikkuli wants a playmate, but everyone else is busy. At the pond, Pikkuli meets the wobbly shorebird, Honkkeli. Honkkeli is close to drowning - can Pikkuli help him?

Pikkuli hops like a chicken and swims like a penguin, but doesn't want to fly, even if everyone tries to encourage him. Instead of flying, Pikkuli teaches the silly Honkkeli to fish properly - and may learn something himself!

At bedtime Pikkuli is afraid of the dark and can't sleep. Next day he falls through a hole in the ground and meets a new friend, who teaches Pikkuli that there's nothing to be frightened about in the dark!

Pikkuli doesn't want to do anything today! Daddy tries with all his might to get Pikkuli excited about eating, reading or fishing, but Pikkuli says no to all of it.

Sunnymoor sleeps. Pikkuli wakes up before the others and just can't keep quiet. He wants to drum and whistle! Pikkuli meets Woodpecker in the woods and they drum together. Perhaps Pikkuli gets a little too excited about drumming...?

Pikkuli has a favourite beaker. One day, the beaker drops from the table and shatters into little pieces. Pikkuli is very sad indeed and would like to cry, but at the same time he wants to hide his grief from his friends and siblings.

Usually Pikkuli, Sister and Brother get along very well and can share everything. Sometimes, though, your own toys just feel the dullest of all and that's when you feel like spoiling everyone else's fun, too. A game played together and a laugh shared by all just might mend matters, though!

Pikkuli and Honkkeli find a caterpillar. They name it Toto, and Toto becomes Pikkuli's new pet. But taking care of a pet isn't all that easy...

Pikkuli wants to help others, but it's not easy. He tries to lend a hand to his family, Owl and Mole, but never gets it quite right. Meanwhile, one of the Grouse chicks has disappeared - could Pikkuli help, this time?

When Pikkuli lays eyes upon the Swan family, his own family starts looking very dull and ordinary. Pikkuli follows the swans around and tries to be just like them, but the Swans won't give him credit. Pikkuli's own family might still be able to surprise him, however..

Pikkuli wants to build a fort. His friends rush to his aid, and his fort turns out very fine indeed. But Pikkuli wants the fort all to himself and drives his friends away. Maybe it would be more fun to play together, after all?

Pikkuli's birthday is just around the corner. He dreams about fancy gifts, but goes too far when he assigns all his friends a gift to get him. When the big day comes, Pikkuli will be in for a surprise... and the party will be fun for everybody!

Mommy and Daddy must go to work, and Pikkuli must spend the day with the Grouse family. Pikkuli doesn't know how to line up like the Grouse chicks, and the rules of the family are foreign to him. What's worse, he's homesick. Could it get any worse? Or does it get better, instead?

Pikkuli and Daddy halt their game of blind man's buff to listen to the Grouse chicks sing. If the Chicks had a choice, they'd sing something else, but Mrs. Grouse is having none of it. Could Pikkuli help?

The forest dwellers are about to arrange a party, but during preparations Honkkeli hurts his leg on a broken bottle. The animals notice that the forest is littered with garbage! Pikkuli rallies everyone to clean up the forest together.

The Byrd family is going to the beach, but Daddy falls ill. Pikkuli wants to stay home and take care of Daddy just like Owl takes care of the ill Spider. But then the flu starts spreading...

Pikkuli carries his Sleepy Duck everywhere. Sister doesn't like the dirty, smelly Sleepy Duck, and wants to wash it clean. Finally, Sister succeeds in her plan and believes Pikkuli will no longer want to carry Sleepy Duck. How will Pikkuli respond?

Mole tends to his garden. Pikkuli accidentally destroys Mole's cultivation and Mole feels angry and disappointed. Pikkuli doesn't understand Mole's anger, but as Mole cries Pikkuli begins to feel sad, too. How could he comfort Mole?

Pikkuli compares his parents' relationship to that of the smoochy Mr. and Mrs. Long-Tail's. He's worried to see his parents argue all the time. Pikkuli and his siblings decide to make a move, and their parents are in for the surprise of a lifetime!

Mr. and Mrs. Long-Tail tell about their holiday trip to Pikkuli and his family.

Pikkuli is used to being the smallest in the family and getting his way, along with all the attention.

Pikkuli, Frog and Woodpecker are target practicing with blowpipes and berries. Mrs. Grouse and the Grouse chicks arrive to the pond to do laundry. The group of friends aims its blowpipes to Mrs. Grouse's freshly washed bedclothes - and she doesn't like that!
