This weeks prompt centres around a children’s TV series. Mr Squiggle was well known to many children growing up in Australia. Recently four coins have been minted to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of Mr Squiggle.

The program had a variety of characters besides Mr Squiggle. These included Blackboard, Bill Steamshovel and Gus the Snail.

Below is an article on the release of the coins and an episode of Mr Squiggle to help with your writing.
