The video is about a three-year-old girl, Mila, who wants a new dollhouse that costs sixty dollars. Her parents, to teach her the value of money, set a challenge where she has to earn the money by the end of the day.
The first challenge is to turn a single penny into as much money as possible within an hour at the Santa Monica Pier. She struggles with being shy and uncomfortable, but they encourage her to step out of her comfort zone. After various attempts, she manages to earn a few dollars by singing at a street performance.
The second challenge is to clean a friend's car at a car wash. They manage to earn ten dollars for it. The final challenge is to run a lemonade stand. However, they fall short of their goal and the toy store closes before they can earn the remaining amount.
Despite not achieving their goal, they surprise Mila with the dollhouse she wanted, emphasizing the importance of hard work and appreciation for things.
