Ep 1The First Wish
It’s Rafi’s seventh birthday, and in her family of Wishing Wizards, that means she’s finally old enough to receive her very own wishing wand. With her dads, Dash and Jake, Rafi learns the three important rules of wishing: you can only make one wish a day, wishes always run out and you can’t unwish a wish. As Rafi holds her wand for the first time, she realises the possibilities are endless - and a little bit magical. Rafi’s birthday marks the beginning of a whole new chapter as she prepares to discover what it really means to be a wishing wizard.
Ep 2The Bouncy Wish
Rafi loves bouncing on the trampoline and wishes she could do it all day. Her feet become bouncy, and it's brilliant at first, until she realises that bouncing everywhere makes simple jobs tricky. Rafi doesn’t want any help, but soon she sees that bouncing all the time isn’t as fun as she thought. With her dads' support, she realises it’s okay to ask for help. Together, they share pancakes, laughter and a big upside-down hug.
Ep 3The Football Wish
Rafi, Ruby and Finn play football against Khia’s team. Rafi is goalie, but she keeps missing shots and feels under pressure. She makes a wish for giant hands to save every ball. When the wish ends, Rafi worries she’ll lose, but Ruby and Finn remind her she’s already a great goalie. Believing in herself, Rafi makes a fingertip save on Khia’s penalty and wins the game fairly.
Ep 4The Gingerbread Wish
Rafi makes gingerbread people for the bakery but thinks they look messy next to Jake’s neat ones. She wishes them to be perfect - and suddenly they spring to life! The cheeky gingerbreads dash through the café, splattering icing and riding on Deborah’s back as they try to reach Gingerbread Land. With Jake’s help, Rafi traps them under a cake dome. Dash reminds her that their messy look is what makes them special.
Ep 5The Bedtime Wish
Rafi promises her dads she will go straight to bed while Aunty T babysits. But when Aunty T suggests night-time ice cream, Rafi makes a wish and her bed magically flies them out into Manchester! It’s exciting at first, but soon Rafi becomes sleepy and wants to go home. Suddenly, the wish runs out and the bed drops onto a tree. Luckily, Aunty T uses her umbrella to magic them safely back. Rafi realises bedtime is bedtime for a reason.
Ep 6The Cherry Tree Wish
Ruby and Finn’s seeds have started to grow, but Rafi’s cherry seed shows no change. Feeling left out, she makes a wish, and a giant cherry tree appears! It’s exciting at first, but when the wish ends, everything disappears. Rafi feels sad, until Doris shares a story about planting an apple tree when she was little. Rafi realises that nature likes to take its time and waiting can bring something special.
