''Oobi helps Uma get used to the playground and teaches her how to swing on the swings. Uma falls when she gets on too fast and is afraid to try again, but Oobi helps her to be more careful and soon Uma is swinging all by herself.''
Oobi and Uma are at the playground, when Uma spies the swings. At first, Oobi wanted to play with Uma on the see-saw, but she still wants to play on the swings. Before she can swing, Oobi first has to show her how to do it properly. Uma, being impatient, ignores what Oobi says and attempts to swing as hard and fast as she can. This, however, prompts her to fall off the swing, get hurt, and she starts to cry. Grampu comes over to check on her, saying that Uma is scared about the swing. Oobi asks if she wants to try again, but she denies, calling it a "bad swing". Oobi tries to calm her down by playing on the slide, counting to 3 before each slide.. First, Oobi and Uma swing down together. then, Uma goes by herself. Then, when Oobi makes his turn, Oobi decides to do some tricks. when doing this, however, Oobi falls off prematurely and hurts himself. Oobi assures Uma he is okay, and Uma calls the slide a "bad slide" for hurting Oobi. He then tells Uma that the slide is okay, and so is the swing. Uma decides to try the swing again, but this time listens to Oobi's advice. She gets on, and goes slow and careful like Oobi said. She is astonished when she finds out that she is swinging all by herself, and calls Kako and Grampu to see. After they swing, Oobi sees the number 4 on a sign, and proceeds to play a number game. Uma is the winner, as she held up the number 4. Uma decides to play another game, this time, piggyback. They all piggyback on top of each other, but fall down shortly after as the episode ends.
