The Home of Diddily Dee Dots Stories for Sleepy Children Everywhere.
These pages will give you a small idea of what is on all the web site pages. To save you from going down and down and down even further, Diddily has placed all the different things on a page of their own. So if you want to go to visit the Badgers of Fingles Wood, just click on their page and away you go. If you decide you want to go and watch the wonderful film of the "Dark Crystal," you will find it on the special television inside the "Elves and Icicles" Story Page. This is a wonderful film but a little scarry.
Just check below on this your first homepage and you will see a little of what each web page is about. Do remember that we have a "Homepage 2" just one click and you will be able to see what is being shown in the upper wing of Seligor's Castle, the point is to enjoy yourselves. There are so many things to see and do at Seligor's Castle for Sleepy (and not so sleepy) Children Every where. Have Fun xxx Diddily Dee Dot xxx
I must tell you all that this is a special little video show, and warn youthat what ever happens they are cartoons like Tom and Jerry and the little mouse isn't really hurt. Honest Seligor. It is always a good idea to check out all the video's before you let the children watch them as it is possible for the odd "Roadrunner" to get past 1. I believe in miracles. 2. Bubble Fish 3. Slugs and Snails 4. Something Fishy 3D 5. Bathroom 3D 6. Olhos 7. Sneak Preview 8. Kiwi 9. The Last Knit 10. Cyriaks Animation Media 11. Funny 3D fishes 12. Polar Bear/Running Machine 13. Pigloo 14.

I would also like to dedicate this story to Charlie the son of my niece Jody and her husband Den, and my Sister Kath's first grandson. Charlie is the first animal story I ever wrote, I was probably about ten years old. If you would like a story about your pet? Get Mummy or Daddy to drop me an email, saying what kind of animal he/she would like a story about, and we’ll see what adventure we can put them in, when I write my next adventure.
Charlie has some wonderful Video's on his tv player
Before
writing the new Charlie Story I have given you a really great piece of
information for you to pass on to your Mum and Dad. It's about Clowns
and especially an old one called Joseph "Joey"
Grimaldi. I am sure that your gran and grandad could tell you all about
him, though even they would have only read about him in books
Flora and Fauna

The Missing Danish Pastries
Down at the bottom of the garden, A Danish Goblin dwelled. And on, one, hot and windy day, He screamed! and then he yelled! "Who's stole my Danish Pastries? And nicked my strawberry flan? I'm undone, quite besides myself, I, will have to make a plan."
Oh dear I really do think I rather spoil all you
children. I mean where else can you go to get such a wonderful
collection of songs and little stories. I think I was as lucky though
when I was little for we had lots of books and with there being the
four girls we made up lots of wonderful stories and we acted them out
on the river bank and in my dad's garden. We even had a play in one of
the hen houses once. Smelt a bit but it kept us out of the cold and
snow., Lovely days those in Bont Newydd.

A
new page with a new idea. It is here that Diddily wants to put things
that you can do and make in your spare times. All of them a little bit
different from the modern electronic stuff you all have nowadays. {shush
don't tell anyone, but Diddily loved her Nintendo, and I still like
Pacman and Mario the best with Donkey Kong a close third. } I
have lots of ideas that I'm hoping will interest you all and they are
to be done with the help of your older brothers and sisters as well as
Mum and Dad, so you can print off the page you want and then set to and
get them done.

never going to believe this but I have also put the one and only Mr Men on
this 2nd video picture show now. I decided that whenever I am working, (she
calls it playing,) with my youngest grand daughter that I end up
covered in glue all over me, paint all over me, just like Mr Messy.
Then after she has gone back home to her Mummy, I become Mr Tidy, and
Mr Sleepy if there is one. So why not a thirty minute break to look at
some of the Mr Men antic's. Next a bit of relaxation making a Pizza with the help of top chef John Mitzewich. Chicago Deep Dish Pizza
Hi,

Dexter the Dragon and the Ogre's Battle
Dexter lived in a cave; he had lived in a cave all of his life apart from when he went on holiday, and that wasn't very often. In fact it was so "not often" that poor Dexter couldn't remember when his last holiday was or even where he went to for it. Poor
Dexter it was not easy being a dragon, for some reason you didn't find
many books which told stories about "good dragons," yet Dexter could
never remember being anything, but good. And so this morning
when Dexter woke up from what was a very cranky sleep, he decided
there and then, that he was going to leave the cave for good.
Watch out for more stories about Dexter later in the year but till then enjoy;
THE ELVIN COW
Any
one who has ever visited Wales will remember that one feature of its
landscape, as seen from the top of any of the wild Welsh moutains, is
the number of beautiful little lakes, the lake often nestling in some
hollow close to the peak itself: and as you look down into the water,
the colours on its surface shift and change every moment, as the cloud
and mist, the sunshine and shadow, sweep to and fro above it. Each
of these little lakes has a fairy legend connected with it, and no
wonder! Indeed, the Gwraged Annwn, or elfin ladies, were thought to
live in these lakes, and at nightfall to lead out their yellow kine to
feed along the high mountain pastures.
There are also some lovely video's on this page that you can watch before or after you've read or you've listened to Dexter's Story.
ELVES AND ICICLES
In the land of Gily-keha not many miles away,
there lived an Elfin Woodland Princess. Her name was Misti and her home
was the Silvan Palace; high in the Silver mountains where she lived with her parents King Silvan and Queen Sereni.The Princess was a happy young elf but also a very lonely one for she didn’t have any brothers or sisters to play with. It
wasn’t so bad when she was young for she would spend hours playing with
all the creatures that lived in and around the palace, but as she had
grown older she found herself wishing for a friend; someone to share
her secrets with and just have fun with I guess.What made it worse was
this winter had been long and cold, it felt like it would never end,
already the snow had been falling for more weeks than normal. Misti sighed, "When
would the cold blanket lift and make way for the spring flowers, in a
few months I'll be thirteen, what then?" she reached down and stroked
her pet cat Petals.

Hello welcome to A Children's Treasury. A few of the poems on this page have come from a book called
THE CHILDREN'S TREASURY of Pictures and Stories. It
was written in 1892 and was presented as a prize for good attendance at
Sunday School for the year 1893 by E. Foorster Wanstall M. A., who was the vicar at St Paul's Wolverhampton.
I also think you might find a few of your treasured friends between the rhymes.

A Special Day In the Shire

Chapter One
A Special Day In The Shire
The
sun was shining brightly through the window of King Peppers’ bedroom.
The king sat on the end of the bed watching as the sunbeams bounced
back off the mirror of his wardrobe, dust was trapped in the light and
seemed to be dancing like little dust bugs. “Hm m” said the king stroking his beard, “today is going to be a beautiful day.”
He smiled then jumped up off the bed and went into the bathroom; showered and
cleaned his teeth, and when he came out again he was looking deep in thought. he dressed himself in
his favourite blue suit, then placing his crown on his head; he combed
his moustache and went downstairs for his breakfast. Queen Pepper was
sitting at the table in the dining room already eating her spicy
sausages and fried bread. The King said as he
sat down to the table opposite her and filled his plate with poached
eggs and bacon. “Nice sausages my dear, its a lovely morning don’t you think?” He smiled
at the queen lovingly, how pretty she looked with her purple curls
hanging down over her shoulders and her crown perched on the top of her
head, a bit squint as usual. “Yes Pepper,” the queen replied taking a
sip of her tea, “and I do believe it’s going to stay like this all
day,” she
added smiling. The king gave her a big smile, a twinkle appeared in his
eyes, "To warm to let it go to waste, do you think then dear? he replied stroking the ends of his moustache again. “Now I
wonder what we could do with this beautiful day?” he pondered. Read on to take part in the wonderful adventures of the Googlenok's of Peppercorn Green and the Shires first Olympic Games.
