The cartoon consists of three plots, "The Alchemist," "Our House," and "The Money Changers." In the first cartoon, a two-year-old schoolboy, resorting to chemistry, which he also does not know, tries to get the two out of the diary. The second cartoon tells about an apartment building that is only 10 years old, but looks like 100. And as a little girl, by her example, she forced the boys to look at their native home with completely different eyes. And the main thing is that now they will not paint the walls, but will love their home. The third cartoon is about a money changer boy who changes everything: glasses for old stamps, and stamps for an elephant in a zoo, a dog for a cat, and a cat for a mouse, and he changed the mouse for a bruise and a bump… And only I couldn't change the two to the five.
