Description

Parkinson children (John and Daphne?) play in the back garden of a house with a toy trailer, and holding hands wih their mother. The children are later seen on a beach with buckets and spades, as their mother sits on a rug knitting. Interior shots show children playing around a Christmas tree, looking at decorations and gathering round a male relative as he produces a toy mouse from a bag. Footage includes family members wearing hats and coats walking in the grounds of a country house, and a young girl and boy (John and Daphne?) riding on a tricycle.
