Next day Autumn goes to visit her blooming bright Spring in a large emerald green meadow full of trees. The tree leaves are warm orange and they cling to the branches with the few remaining strengths, but for a little while longer. Quickly they will fall and the tree will hibernate.
Autumn is so happy to meet Spring that begins to tell her a story.
In the hollow of a dry tree the ant Picaformica lived along with all her sisters. The laborious ants went to gather supplies to great lengths. Winter would come soon but it wouldn't catch them unprepared!
In the same hollow tree lived Battifiacca, the slacker grasshopper who could only sing.
Battifiacca also used to make fun of Picaformica and said: "Come here and sing with me, there's time to work hard and be responsible!"
Picaformica did not listen to her and in fact when Winter came, as it was to be expected, the grasshopper stayed fast and cold.
Then the grasshopper went to Picaformica to ask for food and hospitality. The ant replied that she had worked hard to face the difficulties of Winter and added: "What did you do during the Spring and the Summer ? ".
In spite of everything, the ant proved very generous welcoming her into her house and also giving her food.
Finally, Picaformica said to Battifiacca: “Dear friend, remember that life is not only joy and fun but it is also made up of responsibility and hard working. Next time, get busy if you don't want to suffer from hunger and cold”.

Frog
Rabbit- Bird
Value: Tolerance
Deciding to visit Mother Nature, Autumn happily knocks on her door this time. They hug each other and talk about the wonderful stories told by Summer, Winter and Spring.
Mother Nature says I would like to share with you the story of Speckless. "This is the story of "Speckless" who had to get away from the waters he lived in and his friends and set out to find a new water source with new friends ...
While Speckless, wandering around the forest, he notices the bird and the rabbit playing together a little further and approaches them. The bird and rabbit greet the frog with a smile and ask him what he is doing so far from the water.
Speckless tells this cute rabbit and the little bird that his friends left him alone because he did not have spots like them, that they mocked him because he was different from them and that he was very sad.
While the rabbit telling the frog that he should not be sorry for this, she also mentions that she was born without one of her hind legs and therefore had difficulty in moving freely and even that she could not jump like her friends, so her friends went to find food for her.
Then the little bird joins the conversation. The bird explains that he should actually fly, but because he was afraid of flying he could not manage and fell as soon as he took off, but that his friends helped him overcome his fear.
Speckless tells the cute rabbit and the little bird how lucky they are to have such understanding friends. He then leaves, telling that he must continue on his way and that he must find a source of water before it gets dark.
Speckless does not even notice the stream while he travels sadly and contemplatively with thoughts about the mocking of his own friends and the understanding of the friends of the rabbit and the bird. But the spotted frog at the bottom of the stream both notices the Speckless and the snake approaching him. While the spotted frog trying to distract the snake, Speckless notices the situation and is suddenly startled.
As the snake moves away, thanks to the spotted frog's move, the Speckless thanks the spotted frog for his goodness.
The spotted frog asks how they have not met here before. Speckless also mentions that his friends left him alone because he did not have spots like them, that they did not want him because of his difference and that he set out to find a new home with new friends, and that the road brought him here.
The spotted frog says that we should tolerate our shortcomings and differences in our emotions, thoughts and appearance. He says that each individual is unique, special and valuable. Then introduces Speckless to his other friends and welcomes him to his home. "

Character: Mother Nature, Squirrel
Value: Honesty
One day, Autumn knocked on the door of her mother Nature. Mom was so happy that she saw her daughter that she decided to organize a forest competition in her honor. Animals living among the trees took part in the tournament - owls, deer, lizards, hares and even tiny ants. The referee of the competition was an old bear whom everyone respected for his strength and justice. All competitors gathered in a large clearing and the judge explained the rules of each task. He said the most important thing is to compete fairly, because any cheating players will be eliminated from the tournament.
The little squirrel signed up for a competition in carrying acorns on time. Together with her, the following animals stood at the finish line: a long forest snake, a fluffy red fox and a cheerful woodpecker. The old bear explained that each competitor must transfer acorns from one side of the clearing to the other. The winner will be the one who brings the most during the tune sung by the cuckoo choir. To be fair, each player may only move one acorn at a time. After that, he has to go back and get another one. And so on and so on....
At some point, the squirrel reached the edge of the clearing with the fox. She noticed that the fox was taking not one, but three acorns out of its mouth. The fox is cheating, she thought.
Mother Nature and Autumn decorated her head with a wreath and placed a large medal around her neck with the inscription "Fair play". Autumn said that during her trip she would tell people about the wonderful little squirrel and her great honesty.

Martin and Nathan
This was a herd of 21 geese. Autumn sits confidently on the neck of the leader goose. Because she sees how the other geese of the group look at their leader with confidence. When they start flying, the V-shaped shadows below make Autumn feel part of a large group. Looking down from the sky is a wonderful experience for Autumn.

While this group of 21 people flew very well with their harmonious movements, a storm suddenly stars. They are above the sea. Autumn is very afraid of this situation. The geese, traveling behind the leader goose tell Autumn not to be worry about the storm because the leader goose knows his business very well. According to them, the leader will bring the geese down to a safe place. Autumn sees the trust in the eyes of other geese.
Soon, they see a small island below and the leader goose manages to land the whole group safely on the island. Of course, there have been those affected by the storm. One of them is Autumn. Due to the storm and trying to hide among the neck feathers of the leader goose, her crown was damaged without realizing it. But Autumn is not aware of this. Moreover, he does not notice that he dropped her crown on the island.
As they set out after the storm has passed, Autumn sees the leader goose moving to the very back of the group and the goose, who was once just behind the leader, takes the lead. This is the goose that will now bear the Autumn. Autumn climbs on the shoulders of the new leader and she greets the old leader and realizes he has no crown. Fortunately, they just took off.
Hamid
This situation is spoken by word of mouth to the leader who is at the back. The first leader immediately returns to the island and finds the crown among the high reeds and reaches the group again.
After a very nice and long journey , they all arrive in warm countries happily but tired. But during the journey there was a sadness in Autumn.

Because the fair play crown, the gift of his mother, has been broken. Autumn descends from the neck of the leader and takes a good look at it, removing the crown from her own head. The first leader tells her that they can repair this crown together. Because there are magic flowers. If they mend the crown with these flowers, this crown will never, ever be broken again.
Marie
This means the spirit of fair play lives on forever. All geese to bring those magical little flowers cooperately and they mend the crown together. They put this crown on the head of Autumn again by organizing a ceremony. Autumn has come to the distant and warm land anymore, she will live there for a while but the spirit of fairplay will live on forever.
