The episode follows the young fairy princess Holly and her best friend, the elf Ben, as they learn important life lessons through the guidance of various wise and magical creatures in their little kingdom.

The episode opens with Nanny Plum, the wise and experienced fairy nanny, teaching Holly and Ben how to fly on their own. While Ben quickly masters the skill, Holly struggles and grows frustrated, believing that she'll never be able to fly without someone else's help. Nanny Plum recognizes Holly's self-doubt and decides to teach her an important lesson in confidence and perseverance.

As part of her lesson, Nanny Plum introduces the children to Mrs Witch, a cantankerous old witch who lives in a spooky cave on the outskirts of the kingdom. Mrs Witch is known for being mean and grumpy, but Nanny Plum believes that the children can learn from her nonetheless.

Holly and Ben reluctantly follow Nanny Plum to Mrs Witch's cave, but are quickly startled by the witch's cackling and ominous demeanor. Mrs Witch chastises the children for intruding on her home, but Nanny Plum calmly assures her that they are only there to learn from her. Mrs Witch grudgingly agrees, and begins teaching the children about the magical properties of certain plants and herbs.

Despite Mrs Witch's brusque manner, Holly and Ben begin to appreciate her extensive knowledge and become fascinated by her lessons. Mrs Witch notices that the children have stopped cowering in fear and gradually begins to soften towards them. She even shares some of her special witch's brew with them, which they all agree is surprisingly delicious.

By the end of the episode, Holly and Ben have not only learned how to fly on their own, but have also gained valuable insights into the importance of pushing past their fears and anxieties. Nanny Plum is pleased with their progress and bids Mrs Witch a fond farewell, promising to visit her again in the future.
