The video takes us on a delightful journey through three cheerful stories. First, a magnificent gingerbread city exhibit in London showcases creative ways to tackle environmental issues. Sadly, the displays are not edible, even if they look tempting. Next, Nigerian artist Chitti captivates audiences with his distinctive painting style, dedicating an incredible 12 hours a day to his craft. He even considers paint splashes on his shoes as part of his artistic expression, encouraging everyone to embrace creativity. Lastly, we celebrate the 120-year history of teddy bears, which hold a special place in our hearts and childhoods. The narrator fondly recalls their own teddy bear, while also mentioning famous ones like Winnie the Pooh and Paddington.
