The program starred Ruth Prins as Wunda Wunda, who read stories and sang songs with other characters on the show. She wore a princess hat and clown-like make-up, sitting on a magical rug to do most of her show. She had a hand-held "magic mirror" she used to help tell her stories, which was basically a pane of glass she marked with a felt pen. Wunda Wunda's regular guests included "Clancy the Clock" (an animated alarm clock) and a puppet drum with a face who indicated the beginning of music time.
Near the end of each episode, she began a regular part of her show in which she would go to the window of the small house on her set and wave at all the friends she "saw" through the window.
Wunda Wunda's opening theme song went:
At the closing of each show, the last line of her theme song would change to: "Won't you come again?"
Another version, in the mid '60s went:
Let me take you by the handAnd we'll go to Wonderland.There we'll play with every friendThe Wunda games of "Let's Pretend".
