The Berenstain Bears — Mama, Papa, Brother, Sister and Honey — are ready to clean and fix things. Each family member has a specific task. Mama needs to clean the rug. Papa needs to fix the broken railing to the home. The cubs must clean their playhouse. Since there are spider webs on the inside of the playhouse, the cubs clean the outside of the playhouse first.
Brother finds baseball equipment leaning against the playhouse. The cubs start playing baseball instead of cleaning. Papa catches them. He realizes that they’ve stopped cleaning because they don’t like spider webs. He sweeps away all the spider webs. The cubs go inside the playhouse and finish cleaning it. By the end, everyone is satisfied with his or her day of cleaning.
Mama says that the Bible tells them to enjoy their work.
