Characters

  • Pipo

    Pipo is 8 years old. He is full of curiosity and loves life. He is an explorer, always on the move. He has lots of energy and enthusiasm. He loves soccer, playing with his friends, organizing parties, having picnics, eating snacks in the blink of an eye, telling scary stories, but… overall, he is generous and dynamic, with a talent for finding trouble… and getting out of it! Usually, his talent for thinking outside the box is the key to solving problems.

  • Pepa

    Pepa is Pipo’s little sister. Although she’s younger, she is also wiser. One might say she follows her brother around everywhere… just to keep an eye on him! She’s funny, ironic and pragmatic; she’s top of the class and very keen on economics! She owns two moneyboxes: one for everyday purchases, the other for her future enterprises… and not surprisingly, she’s in charge of managing the siblings’ budget. Her business partner is her doll, Ellen, which Pepa always brings with her, ready to share in any new business opportunity.

  • Pop

    Pop is the puppy that lives with Pipo and Pepa. He is a funny, happy dog. With his cuddles and caprices, it’s easy to understand him – just as if he could talk. He is a fantastic dog and quite clearly prefers Pipo.

  • Adam

    Adam is a Scottish elf inspired by Adam Smith, the father of modern economics. He lives in a moneybox and is a very wise advisor. Like the genie of the lamp, Adam comes out of his house as soon as the kids rub it. He is cheerful and fun, playing the bagpipes when he doesn’t agree with the kids, but doing a dance of joy when he approves of their decisions. As a Scot, he doesn’t like to spend money wastefully, and whatever he finds lying around is recycled in his moneybox house.
