Six children stand side by side, and the video shows how they differ one feature at a time: curly or straight hair, brown, blue or green eyes, and a different favourite thing in a thought bubble over each child. Then it shows how they are alike, as they all feel happy and sometimes sad and join hands to play with friends, and it ends on "People are alike in some ways and different in others."
