A letter from your pen pal

Money

Charlie Chipmunk

Hey there, my speedy little pal!

A speedy pal learning pricing, deals, and hard work!

I'm Charlie Chipmunk, scurrying over to be your pen pal! I love toys - blocks, balls, puzzles, you name it! But I had so many that my mom suggested I have a toy sale. That's when I learned all about pricing, making deals, and even bartering (I traded a toy for a bike - can you believe it?).

It was so fun learning how to handle money and realizing that with hard work, I can save up for things I want!

Chipmunk fun facts: I can carry food in my cheek pouches - up to 70 seeds at once! I build burrows underground with secret tunnels. I can jump 3 feet high and run super fast. My big ears help me hear danger and stay safe.

I love playing with my chipmunk friends, collecting acorns, and zipping around the forest. You'd make a fantastic playmate - clever, playful, and learning how to make smart choices!

Thank you for being my pen pal! Remember, with a little effort, you can turn your treasures into exciting new adventures.

With nutty hugs,
Your friend,
Charlie Chipmunk
