Its subtitle means "The Secret of the Frog-Stone". In their summer vacation, Doremi, her family and her friends visit her grandparents and find out about a legend of the frog stone.

Story

In the beginning, there is a woman in a kimono holding a mask calling for her love to come back to her(as he is has been beheaded). Now in modern time, Doremi, with her friends and family, visits her grandparents. At the time they get to the destination, Momoko goes missing only to reveal herself that she was with Doremi's Grandfather, watching him make Shunkei (crafts, art of wood). After Grandfather yells at Aiko (to not touch the wood), she immediately gets a fear of him. As the girls play in the river, Doremi's Mom asks Aiko why she wouldn't play with her friends, and after she gets a quick encouragement and plays with them. After Grandma comments them on how good they can make sweets, Doremi asks what the masks are and so getting the response of Kaeru-sama(Frog). While at dinner, Momoko asks to sit on Grandpa's lap, as do the other girls (except Aiko). After Momoko starts to suspect why Aiko is not joining everyone, Doremi asks Grandpa (to stop an argument from happening) if she and her friends can go visit the frog, and when her Grandpa declines it, Doremi asks her Grandma if she said anything wrong. Then she gets the response of tomorrow night being the smiling moon and the story about the Legendary Frog Stone that started in the Edo Era. Doremi suggests that she and her friends should sneak there way to the Frog Stone (only that she said that won't go only to get cake) and they agree to do so. While they're sleeping, Momoko asks Aiko why she avoided Grandpa and getting the response that she thinks Grandpa is scary. Later on, the girls go to climb the Frog mountain (as her Grandmother said) to visit the frog stone, yet they turn into witches to get there faster. The curse of the Frog Stone turned them back to normal, not turning them back for a temporary time. Onpu says that the song they learned (that Doremi's Grandma was singing to them) is exactly like the situation they're in right now, proving that she's right. At the Lone Cedar Tree, Aiko (along with everybody else) tells Momoko why she is afraid of Grandpa: something happened when she was three. When Doremi and her friends get saved by her Dad and Grandpa, Aiko finally gets over the fear of Grandpa, only to discover that Grandpa is soon to die. As the girls cry, the story fades out with Doremi's father smiling.
