What is Mummy Time about?
A little boy and his mummy go to the park, but Mummy is distracted by a long telephone conversation. While she talks, he wanders off on a lively adventure, discovering animals, puddles, plants and all sorts of exciting things. Each of his encounters seems to echo the words Mummy is saying on the phone, creating a playful parallel between their two worlds. When the call finally ends, Mummy discovers that their ordinary outing has been full of unexpected magic.
