The local blacksmith, Dad Anderson, builds nifty sail-propelled scooters for the boys. Meanwhile, Mickey imitates his big sister's beau in his efforts to win Mary's affection.
The gang visits Mickey in the hospital, who's having his tonsils taken out. Before long, they create mayhem in the hospital, and get thrown out. To get back in, they switch vaccination orders with some other kids, but the staff catches on and gives them some false diseases to worry about.
The gang performs in a Shakespearean playlet authored by Miss Ocheltree. The material is way over their heads and it's past their bedtimes, so everything inevitably goes from bad to worse.
As the gang are selling lemonade across the street from the racetrack, they meet Mary, who's rich father owns one of the horses. She gets them into the track, and they're sufficiently impressed to start up their own junior version.
The gang travels by wagon to go on a picnic with their families. After losing a wheel, the parents put on a new one, and the gang races off with the wagon, leaving the parents behind. They have a picnic without the parents, only to be overrun with insects.
The gang are running their own taxi service, and come across Ernie and Farina delivering laundry to J. William McAllister, the wealthiest man in town. His doctor and his wife have both convinced him that he's sick, but when the kids visit him, they convince him otherwise. They all drive off in the taxi to Emerald Beach and have the time of their lives.
The gang starts up their own barbershop, giving the neighborhood kids haircuts that wouldn't become popular for another sixty years. When they see Mickey in his Little Lord Fauntleroy outfit, they kidnap him and give him the works. Mickey then decides to join them in their enterprise.
The gang hides out on Captain Whelan's boat after being chased by the police. The boat gets loose, however, and they drift out to sea. A Navy ship comes by to rescue them, but the gang mistake them for the enemy. After being captured, they're put to work scrubbing the decks.
Farina has nightmares whenever he eats meat. After he eats the contents of a picnic basket, he dreams of being chased around by giant versions of the kids in the gang.
It's the last day of school, and Mickey gets into a big fight with Snoozer, the school bully. The kids take turns performing in front of the parents, with Mary struggling through ""Mary Had A Little Lamb"" and Mickey trying to play ""Humoresque"" on the violin.
When the gang hears about prizes being offered at a baby show, they get their younger siblings ready to earn some money. Mickey dresses Joe up to win the prize for fattest baby, but Joe runs off when it comes time to be inspected by a pediatrician. The gang then stages its own baby show, but their mothers arrive with the police to reclaim their babies. The gang hides in a gypsy's wagon, and find themselves being kidnapped by the unknowing gypsy.
Jubilo reminisces about his childhood, and his mother's birthday many years ago. His father is too stingy to buy gifts, so Jubilo decides to buy a 3 dollar hat for her. He tries several ideas for earning money, including starting his own circus.
When Mickey comes along in his wagon and sees the gang hunting for wild animals, he invites them to his farm to see some real animals. The kids run around trying to catch anything on four legs, until a couple of bears show up to chase them around.
