'The Holiday Club '
In which the Number Crew run the Holiday Club

Sorting out in the stores Ted comes across his old saxophone and the children get the idea of holding a Holiday Club, but they have to plan carefully. Ted is on hand with his tool box and the Hippo and Moose are the practice customers. Tickets are five pence and the customers will be coming in two at a time. Bradley gets confused but gets there in the end. Flo in sharing a plate of twelve nibbles between the two customers, she sees she can do this using her tables. Fiz is offering lemonade to the customers, a twenty pence bottle to share between them, and she can use the tools in her head, her tables, to work out how much they need to pay each.

Now they've practised they can open the Holiday Club for some serious fun. In fact it's all going so well Baby Bunting decides he wants to have a Holiday Club for the Number Bugs.

Studio Action Matt has been using his tools on the Number Car again. He explains Bradley needs his tables to work out what the entry price is, and then shows how Flo can use her tables to divide twelve by two, and Fiz can do the same to divide twenty by two. He examines the two times table on the Number Square and asks what is the something if something times two is two hundred?
