The teddy bears were going on holiday with their pals, Oscar and Alfred. When Alfred arrived he was wearing a very colourful bead necklace. The other bears thought that it looked really pretty and asked him where he had bought it.
He replied that it wasn't for sale in any shops. It was actually a length of shoelace, plus some beads and bells that he had threaded on. The other bears thought that they would like to make bead necklaces just like that for themselves too.
"Where do you get the beads and bells from?" James asked Alfred. "Well, actually, they were all bought from our local craft shop, but I didn't just thread on whatever I wanted" he replied.
"What do you mean?" continued James. Then Alfred told them that the beads and bells on his necklace were given to him for completing certain challenges whilst on holiday, or even when just at home.
