"I haven’t told you the best part,” said Grandpa. “When you save your acorns, they don’t just sit there and wait for you. They grow into trees, and the trees give you more and more acorns.” Join Oliver and Amelia as Grandpa teaches them the importance of saving. They hear the story of how the bears saved the monkeys. They learned about the consequences of wasting bananas, sharing berries and saving acorns. The best part is the acorns they save can grow over time into trees with more acorns.
