Squirrels Scamper
In Squirrels Scamper, two young children―Kamali and Josiah―step outside to discover the busy world of squirrels in their own backyard.
As they watch the squirrels scamper, climb, and jump through the crisp autumn air, the children join in the fun―testing their own balance and agility as they mimic the squirrels’ playful movements. Whether gathering twigs for their nests or searching for acorns, the squirrels are always on the move, and so are the children! After a day of joyful exploration and teamwork, including raking leaves and diving into leaf piles, the children realize that, like the squirrels, we too spend our days working and playing, celebrating the harmony of nature and the rhythm of life.
