Description

Outside a playground, the Kelsall children feed the birds. At home in the living room, the children practice headstands. On Christmas morning we see the children opening their presents followed by a game of pool. Extended family get together for Christmas dinner. In the next scene the family go to see the King Orry ship aground near Glasson Dock. The film cuts to a snow-covered garden where the children build a snowman. On a trip to Scotland they visit Edinburgh castle. At a sports day children and parents take part in various races. In the next scene, crowds gather on the street to catch a glimpse of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip as they drive past in the Royal car. In the next scene, we see a hot air balloon taking off and later people parachuting. The film ends with the children feeding deer in a park.
