-ALL:

-My First.

What's this, Brogan?

This is Killian and he is five years old.

What kind?

Killian loves playing

with his little brother, Brogan,

especially when it's a numbers or counting game.

This is...

9p.

Today, Killian is going to do something new for the first time.

What will it be?

Boys, we need to go down to the shops.

We're going to the toy shop.

-Yeah!

-With the money Granny sent you for your birthday.

-Yay!

-Can you remember how much you got?

-Mm...

-£15?

-£15, let me see.

-£15 from Granny.

-Yep.

There. And you've got...

-£1 from Angela.

-16.

£1 from Aunty Tracey.

£17.

£1 from Aunty Bernadette.

£18.

£1 from Aunty Patricia.

£19.

And one from Aunty Jolene.

-£20!

-£20!

Shall we go and buy something with your birthday money?

-Yes.

-Right, you gather up all your money.

OK. Let's go, boys.

This is Killian's Memory Box.

It helps him remember all the exciting things that happen.

See if you can spot anything going in it today.

What toy would you like to buy with your birthday money?

I'd like that tractor, with the cows and horses over there.

The tractor. We've got tractors at home.

And you get to go in Grandad's tractor.

Then, I would like that digger.

Right. That's quite nice. How much is it?

£23.

And how much money do you have?

£20.

How much more money do you need?

£3.

-Where are you going to get £3 from?

-I don't know.

How about...

you do some jobs at home

and I give you £1 for every job.

OK.

-What are we going to do with your money that you have?

-Hm...

Cos, otherwise, you might spend it all on sweeties!

How about we open a bank account for you?

-OK.

-That way, you can save your money

and when Mummy gives you the rest

-we'll take the money out and buy your toy.

-OK.

-OK, right, good boy.

Money is made up of coins and notes.

People work and earn money to buy the things we need or want.

And we are sometimes given money for special occasions.

To save our money, we can put it into a bank or a money box.

A bank is a place that looks after our money and keeps it safe.

Killian has come to meet a lady to help him open a bank account.

Killian, this is exciting, isn't it?

-Yeah.

-Your first bank account. You've been saving money, I see.

-Yeah.

-How did you get all that money?

For my birthday.

Have you got something that you'd like to save for?

-Yes.

-Ooh, what is it?

A yellow digger.

I just have a couple of forms here to fill out.

Then we'll go and put the money into the bank,

nice and safe for you.

OK, so I will take your money. Thank you very much.

And I'll go and put it into your bank account, nice and safely.

-Done. Your first bank account.

-I know!

-Well done.

This is your little book. There you go.

Better keep that account book safe.

You'll need it when you need to take your money back out.

-OK.

-Thank you. Thank you very much.

-Bye!

The first thing to go into Killian's Memory Box is an account book.

If Killian is going to earn more money,

he's going to need somewhere at home to keep it.

He is painting his very own piggy bank.

How much money do you think you would fit in there?

-Ten hundred pounds?

-You mean 1,000?

-Ten hundred pounds?

-That's a lot of money!

What would you buy if you had that?

-Anything!

-SHE LAUGHS

And do you know why we need money?

-BROGAN TALKS

-To buy stuff.

And what do you normally buy?

Stuff for your dinner, stuff for your lunch,

-and stuff for your breakfast.

-That's right.

-And healthy food.

-And healthy food. Very good.

-Buy your toys.

-And toys. You buy toys.

-Yeah.

Done!

Good job. It looks brilliant.

The second thing to go into the Memory Box is a piggy bank.

Killian's first job is to help his mum make some sweet treats.

You'll never guess what they are making.

Chocolate coins!

Mm, that's good.

Now, there's the chocolate. Shake it down.

Get one of these.

Push that down.

That's it. And there's the other one.

-Ooh, that looks yummy!

-That's good.

I'll put these in the fridge to set for half an hour

and when they're done we can put the foil on.

SHE GASPS

-Killian!

-KILLIAN MUMBLES

What happened here?

-Right, I tell you what.

-Yeah.

I will give you £1...

-Yeah.

-..towards your truck...

-Yeah.

-..if you put all these toys away.

-OK.

-OK?

-Yes.

-Right.

Five minutes.

Go!

Come on, Killian. Put them all away!

There's still lots more to clear away.

TOYS CLATTER Hurry up, Killian. Time's nearly up.

Nearly there.

Mummy, I'm finished!

Coming!

HE RUNS

HE LAUGHS

Wow!

You did a great job, Killian.

Did anyone help you?

-No.

-You did fantastic.

What have I got for you?

£1!

Your £1, well done.

Shall we see if the chocolate coins are ready?

-Yes.

-Yes? Come on, then.

HE LAUGHS

The first coin in the piggy bank.

I wonder if the chocolate is set yet?

-What do you think?

-Yeah!

-Are they ready to be wrapped?

-Let me look at them!

-There we go.

-Ooh!

-Is it hard?

-Yes, it is.

-Yeah.

Now, lift this one up here.

Lift it up.

There's one. How many do we need to make a chocolate coin?

-Two?

-Two.

You know what? You did very well.

And I'm very pleased with you helping make those coins.

But you know what would be better than a chocolate coin?

-£1 coin?

-A real coin!

There you go. Well done!

Nearly there now.

The third thing to go in the Memory Box is a chocolate coin.

-Yeah.

-This is the next job for you.

-That?

-Yes.

-See this car here?

-Yeah.

-Mummy's dirty old car.

-Yeah.

-I want it so shiny...

-Yeah.

..I can see my face in it.

-OK.

-All right?

-Now, make sure you only use the soft part of the sponge, OK?

-OK.

Cos otherwise that might scratch Mummy's car.

-OK.

-So just use that soft bit.

Wow, looks like this is going to be a lot of work, Killian.

Up on the tippy-toes! Watch you don't fall, though.

SPONGE SQUEAKS

-HOSE SPRAYS

-Lower, lower.

That's it. Keep going low.

I think the car is about clean now.

Do you think your mum will be happy with the job you've done?

-Do you think you've passed?

-Yeah.

-Do you think I should give you your money?

-Yeah.

I think you've done a great job and you've worked really hard.

-Yay!

-Yes. Hold on. Where is it?

Let's see what I have for you.

-Yay!

-Well done! And where are you going to put that one?

In my piggy.

Wow! The final coin.

Killian has been working hard and has now earned enough money

in his piggy bank and bank account

to buy his yellow truck.

Back to the bank.

Hello, Killian. How are you today?

-Good.

-Good. What can I do for you today?

I want to take out my money.

-Have you got enough for your toy?

-Yes.

-That's brilliant.

I'll go and get that for you, OK?

So, how much money do you have now?

Altogether?

£23.

£23. What does that mean?

-I'm going to buy my truck.

-Yes!

I've got your money here. All nice and safe for you.

-That's your £20.

-What do you say?

-Thank you.

-You can buy your toy now.

-That's great. Thank you, Diane.

-Not at all. Thank you.

-Thank you.

-OK.

-See you next time.

-ALL:

-Bye!

Right, let's go and get this toy then, mister.

I hope it's not sold. Still there?

-Yes.

-Yes!

-Hi.

-Hello.

I'd like the toy on the window, please.

-Which one do you like?

-The yellow truck.

Ooh, let's go and get it.

Well, all that hard work paid off.

All right, Killian.

-This one?

-Yeah.

£23.

Thank you very much.

Yay! Get your truck.

-Do you want me to lift it down?

-Yes.

-Ooh!

-Yay!

-Can you manage?

-Yes.

Say thank you.

Thank you.

Right, thanks a lot.

The fourth thing to go into the Memory Box is the yellow truck.

-I bet you can't wait to play with this.

-I can't wait.

Today, Killian saved money to buy a special toy.

Do you remember what happened?

Let's have a look in the Memory Box.

First, Killian went to the bank to open an account

with his birthday money.

After that, Killian painted a piggy bank,

so that he had somewhere to keep his money at home.

Next, Killian earned extra pocket money

by helping out around the house.

And, finally, Killian bought the toy truck,

with all the money he saved.

Today, Killian opened a bank account.

There's a first time for everything.

-ALL:

-My first.
