Jack Frost's Poem[]
Goblins botch and goblins fumble,
Goblins shout and goblins grumble.
Got to fix this naughty rabble,
Poked-out tongues and noisy gabble.
All babysitters best beware,
I’ll snatch the objects in your care.
Precious things from precious tots,
As they lie curled up in their cots.

The Toy Box[]
Kirsty is looking out of the lodge window when she sees the butterfly house and calls Rachel over to look. Kirsty grabs her brochure and lists the different things that EcoWorld has, before they both leave their bedroom to go into the garden. There, they find twins Tom and Lily playing in the sandpit and Kirsty introduces Rachel. Mrs Tate walks up with Tom's bottle and asks the girls to buy her some things from the supermarket, allowing them to also buy themselves a milkshake.
They do so. while in the Treetop Cafe, Kirsty picks some straws, one of which is glowing. A fairy steps from behind the milkshake glass, introducing herself as Jennifer the Babysitter Fairy and explains she works in the Fairyland Nursery, with other fairies helping her. The girls smuggle Jennifer into the rainforest dome next door, where she uses her magic to use a puddle as a Seeing Pool.
The puddle shows the Fairyland Nursery interior and Kirsty sees three cushions where the magic objects are kept. Jennifer tells them the job of each object and cries. The girls agree to help her and Jennifer says the objects were stolen in the middle of storytime. The puddle next shows three goblins dressed as giant babies who crawl across the Nursery to steal the objects. Kirsty assumes the goblins took them to the Ice Castle, but Jennifer says they hid them elsewhere. She returns to Fairyland to search for clues and check on the Nursery.
The girls run to their lodge, where they find Tom and Lily still in the garden but crying, Mr and Mrs Robinson trying to comfort them. The girls suggest taking the twins to the kids' club for a while. When they arrive, they meet Diane, a play worker, who leads them into a garden where other children are fighting over toys. Kirsty offers to help but Diane points out her new play assistant, who is actually a goblin.
While Diane goes with the twins, the girls sneak up on the goblin, overhearing him saying the children have run off with the toy box. As they think on what to do, Jennifer appears. The trio split up to search for the toy box, finding another play worker trying to read a story and drawers with mixed toys. A little girl throws her blanket, Rachel picks it up but the girl is staring into the play kitchen's oven, where the toy box is stored. The goblin bumps her out of the way and boasts he is clever. He dances and the children join in. The goblin becomes terrified and runs outside over the garden wall. Rachel opens the oven door and Jennifer retrieves her toy box. She casts a spell to correct everything and thanks the girls. The girls find Tom and Lily, Kirsty hugs them and suggests going back to the lodge to build sandcastles.
The Snack Pack[]
The girls wake up the next morning and prepare themselves for the day. In the kitchen, they find everyone having breakfast, with Rachel praising Lily for trying to pronounce her name. Mr Walker gives the girls a map for activities to do. The adults agree on the sailing, until Mrs Robinson remembers booking a rainforest walk run by the Sunnydays Kids' Club. The girls suggest taking the twins on the walk while the adults do sailing.
They all get ready and as the girls shake the picnic blanket in the garden, Jennifer tumbles out. She says she's aware of the rainforest picnic and is having a picnic in Fairyland too. The girls leave with the twins to the rainforest dome. They explore until the girls hear noises and find a goblin footprint. They each carry the twins across the dome to the picnic area, but discover collapsed tables and squashed food. Even the sausage rolls are green! Mr Walker steps in jelly and allows the girls to go off by themselves.
The pair find the goblins in a small clearing, having been eating and drinking. They overhear them bragging about hiding Jennifer's snack pack in Fairyland. As the goblins run off, the girls use the fairy dust in their lockets to transport to Fairyland, arriving outside the Nursery.
They follow a path into a garden and find fairy babies, with Jennifer struggling with the picnic hamper. Polly the Party Fun Fairy appears to organise the games and the girls tell them what they heard. Polly offers to babysit while the three search inside the Nursery, finding the snack pack underneath its cushion.
One of the goblins from the rainforest dome shows up and grabs the snack pack from Jennifer, claiming he'll take it to the Ice Castle. Rachel flies around him to make him dizzy. That doesn't work and Jennifer suggests giving him rotten food but he doesn't trust them. As he prepares to run out the door, fairy babies fly up the stairs. Scared, he gives the snack pack back and marches out the door. Jennifer hugs the babies and asks the girls if they want to join, but they choose to go back to Tom and Lily.
The Nightlight[]
Rachel and Kirsty are helping the twins make their lanterns during a crafts session in the lake dome. Leaving the lanterns to dry, the girls take Tom and Lily for a walk so they can find clues. While doing so, they mistake boys shouting for goblins. Tom and Lily start feeling tired, so the girls take them back to their lodge bedroom for naptime. The twins refuse to sleep while Mrs Robinson is confused as their nightlight is missing. The girls leave the room, discovering other frazzled parents and upset children all around the park. They walk along the boardwalks and into a tunnel of willow trees, the branches bending to form an enclosed den.
The girls are transported to the Fairyland Nursery, where Sabrina the Sweet Dreams Fairy meets them and takes them to Jennifer. The other Twilight Fairies are trying to put the fairy babies to sleep, Jennifer in the middle with a clothes pile. A fairy baby named Ellie uses her magic to turn the clothes into costumes, despite Jennifer scolding her, Ellie giggles. Jennifer explains to Rachel and Kirsty that without her magic nightlight, fairy babies won't get any sleep and their magic will go haywire. Kirsty deduces that the nightlight is in Jack Frost's territory.
Rachel, Kirsty, Jennifer and a few fairy babies fly in a line to the Ice Castle. Through a window, they head inside the Throne Room and hide on top of a chandelier, witnessing goblins with pillows and blankets, spitting out hot chocolates and each having their own nightlight. Rachel says the nightlights were stolen from the human world. Jennifer sees Jack Frost with her nightlight and she flies over.
He reveals he's used her objects to make his goblins behave and threatens to smash it. While Jennifer tells him the true way of her objects, Rachel grabs the nightlight and throws it at Jennifer. She catches it and the fairy babies fly down from the chandelier and try to snuggle with the goblins, who freak out.
The girls, Jennifer and the babies leave the pandemonium behind and return to the Nursery for bedtime. Jennifer reads them a story, Spikilocks and the Three Goblins and thanks the girls before sending them back to the lake dome. Lily and Tom run to Rachel and Kirsty with their lanterns, which have been decorated with gemstones. Kirsty guesses fairy magic. Mrs Robinson tells them to "enjoy the magical sight" then the twins will go to bed. The girls smile.
