Rafi the Wishing Wizard S1:E2

The 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.

The 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.

The 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.

The 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.

The 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.

The Mermaid Wish

Rafi wants to swim with both her dads, but Jake feels nervous in the pool. Rafi makes a wish, and suddenly they all have mermaid tails! Jake isn’t sure at first, but with Rafi’s help, he learns to flip his tail and swim. When the wish ends, Jake is back on his feet and feels braver than before. Rafi understands that everyone gains courage in their own time, and the family share a happy hug.

The Baby Wish

Rafi wants her dads to stop doing chores and to dance with her. She wishes to be the oldest so that she can set the rules. Suddenly, Jake and Dash turn into babies, leaving Rafi in charge! It’s funny at first, but soon the mess grows. Rafi realises being grown up means taking responsibility. She cleverly mixes tidying with dancing, showing them chores can be fun too. When the wish ends, her dads return to normal and are proud of Rafi’s maturity and teamwork.

The Stuck Together Wish

Rafi and Ruby are having the best play date ever, and they don't want Ruby to go home, so they make a wish to be stuck together. At first, it’s funny - they eat, play and do homework side by side. But soon their different ideas cause squabbles. With help from Jake and Dash, they remember why they wanted to stay together in the first place. Even best friends have differences, and that’s what makes them special. Less

The Do-It-All Wish

It’s a busy day at the Bake A Wish Café. Rafi wants to bake with Jake in the kitchen and help Dash at the Wizard Wagon in the park. She wishes to be in two places at once, and a magical portal lets her hop between them! It’s exciting at first, but things soon become muddled. Rafi grows tired and realises it’s too hard to do everything at once. With her dads’ support, she realises it’s sometimes better to focus on one thing at a time.

The Tallest Wish

Rafi spots an old family photo, where she looks small next to her dads. Wanting to seem more grown up, she wishes to be taller - and suddenly she is! It’s fun at first, but she soon realises she misses being carried by her dads and the closeness of doing things together.

The Cat Wish

Rafi wishes she was a cat so that she can have a relaxing day being just like Deborah! It is fun at first, but she quickly discovers the challenges. When they are stuck outside in the rain, Rafi admits being a cat is harder than she thought. With Deborah’s help, she returns inside and back to herself again. Together with her dads, they create a magical cat flap, so Deborah won’t get stuck outside ever again. Less

The Unicorn Wish

Rafi longs for adventure, but Deborah prefers to rest. With a swish of her wishing wand, Tornado appears - a confident, glittering unicorn, bursting with heroic energy. Together, they gallop through the Bake A Wish café, turning cake deliveries into daring quests and baby food spills into perilous lakes. As the adventure shows no sign of stopping, Rafi realises it’s okay to rest. Luckily, her dads and sleepy Deborah remind her that sometimes the cosiest adventures are found at home.

The Talk to Animals Wish

Rafi and Finn find a lost baby sparrow in the park. Wanting to help, Rafi wishes she could talk to animals. Suddenly, ants, squirrels and Teacup the dog begin to chatter at once, making things more confusing! Rafi realises that listening can be more important than talking. She and Finn close their eyes and hear the sparrow’s mummy calling. Guided by the sound, they find the nest and reunite the chick with its family.

The Multi Rafi Wish

Rafi is busy making a half birthday card for baby Oscar, but with ukulele practice, library reading and Teacup the dog to play with, she has a lot to do. She wishes for more versions of herself, and four colourful Rafis appear. Chaos ensues, until Dash encourages Rafi to take charge. She gets each Rafi to focus on one job - crafts, reading, music and play. At the café, the Rafis sing for Oscar, present the card, and then merge back into one.

The Playground Wish

At the playground, Khia won’t let Rafi and Ruby have a turn on the zip line. Rafi makes a wish for a magical new zip line that loops through the clouds and zooms around the park. At first, it’s amazing. But Rafi and Ruby ride again and again, forgetting the rule of one turn each. Soon, a long queue forms, and the friends realise they’re doing exactly what Khia did. Rafi decides it’s time to let others have a go. She realises that playground fun works best when everyone gets a turn.

The Freeze Wish

Rafi and Finn want to read their adventure book at the Bake A Wish Café, but there are too many distractions - even Dash can’t focus! Rafi makes a wish to freeze the café so they can read in peace. At first, it works, but frozen trams, floating crisps and silly surprises keep them busy. When the wish fades, Rafi helps Jake, and the café comes back to life with lots of giggles. Rafi decides the café is too noisy for reading, so she makes a cosy corner in her bedroom instead.

The Switch Places Wish

Rafi is disappointed when she can’t join her dad, Dash, at a grown-up restaurant, while Aunty T would much rather spend the afternoon playing in the park. With a mischievous idea and a little magic, Rafi wishes they could switch places. When the wish wears off, Rafi realises that some things are best enjoyed when you’re exactly who you’re meant to be.

The Basketball Wish

Rafi, Ruby and Finn struggle to score in basketball, so Rafi wishes for a magic ball. At first, it’s fun, as every shot goes in - even trick throws. But the constant winning becomes boring, and the ball bounces endlessly into the hoop by itself. The trio try to contain it, but it escapes again and again. Finally, they return to playing with the ordinary ball, and Finn sinks a real shot, proving true victory is earned.

The Bubble Wish

Rafi wants to blow a bubble just like her dads, but no matter how hard she tries, it won’t work. She makes a wish and creates a huge, magical bubble that floats around the park. As Rafi chases after it, the bubble spreads wonder wherever it goes. But when the bubble finally pops, Rafi is heartbroken. With help from her dads and friends, Rafi realises that bubbles aren’t meant to last forever, and that some of the most special moments are wonderful because they are fleeting.

The Fixie Pixie Wish

It’s raining, so Rafi and Ruby are playing indoor football. But when they accidentally break a plate, Rafi wishes for it to be fixed but warns them not to play again. When the plate smashes a second time, Rafi wishes for help and summons the clumsy Fixie Pixie, who causes chaos while trying to repair things. Rafi eventually realises it’s better to tell the truth than hide mistakes.

The Lost and Found Wish

At the bring-and-buy sale, Rafi insists on keeping her oldest toy, Tommy the T. rex. But after a busy day, she realises he’s gone. Worried, she makes a wish to find him, and her wishing wand whisks her and Jake on a wild chase through the park. Finally, back at the bakery, they discover baby Oscar happily playing with Tommy - Amy bought it to cheer him up. Seeing Oscar’s joy, Rafi decides to let him keep Tommy.

The Magic Show Wish

Finn puts on a magic show at the bakery and wants to do it all by himself. It goes well - until he gets stuck. Rafi secretly makes a wish, and suddenly his hat is full of bunnies! The crowd laughs, but Finn is upset that the show isn’t his any more. With Ruby’s help, they use carrot cake to guide the bunnies back into the hat. When the wish ends, Finn finishes the show on his own. He proves he can shine, and Rafi realises that friends sometimes need space to do things their own way.

The Dinosaur Wish

Rafi and Aunty T visit the Manchester Museum. Rafi thinks dinosaurs are more than fine and wishes for a real one. Suddenly, Slurpy the triceratops appears! Slurpy is cheeky - he slurps faces, leaves colourful footprints and knocks things over while munching salad. Rafi worries about the mess, but Aunty T laughs and enjoys the fun. When the wish ends, Slurpy disappears, and Aunty T uses her own wand to put the museum back together. She admits dinosaurs and museums are magic, and Rafi beams with delight.

The Driving Wish

Rafi, Dash and Jake set off on a camping adventure, determined to stick to their wizarding scout plan - no wishes allowed! When they realise the original plan won’t work, Rafi suggests making a new one instead. With teamwork, flexibility and the right wish, the Wizard Wagon takes flight and carries them to the perfect camping spot at sunset. Rafi learns that plans can change, and sometimes the best adventures come from making a new one together.

The Camping Wish

Rafi, Dash and Jake set off on a camping trip, determined to follow their wizarding scout rule: stick to the plan and use wits, not wishes.

She learns that plans don’t have to be perfect, and sometimes changing them leads to something even better.

While remembering her past wishes with Finn and Ruby, Rafi realises her best wish might still be ahead of her, and that there’s plenty more magic to come.

The Walk to School Wish

Rafi wishes for faster ways to get to school, but it doesn't all go to plan. Finally, Rafi realises the best part of walking to school is spending time together as a family. Magic!
