Teddy, Goldie, Franklin, Chase, and Penny — the Band of Bears

How It Works

Learn. Practice. Grow.

🎥

Learn

Each Level is three short videos where Mr. Brian and a bear character break down real money concepts — no jargon, no lecture, just a story kids actually want to follow.

✏️

Practice

Every video pairs with a worksheet and a Bear Claw Challenge — a pause-and-predict moment where kids apply what they just learned before seeing the answer.

🏆

Grow

Finish all three Levels of a character's course and earn that bear's Collectible Coin — a real progress marker for a real financial-literacy milestone.

The Cast

Meet the Band of Bears

Teddy, Goldie, Franklin, Chase, and Penny each headline their own course, growing up alongside your learner — from a first piggy bank to a first retirement plan.

The Bear Claw Challenge

“Paws and think” — then collect the coin.

Every video pauses for a Bear Claw Challenge: kids predict an answer before Mr. Brian reveals it. Land all three challenges in a Level and you're awarded ALL THREE BEAR CLAWS — a real completion moment, not just a progress bar.

Finish a character's full course — all three Levels — and you earn that bear's Collectible Coin. Five characters, five coins, one full set to chase.
