Looking up at his grandad, Finn asked in a small voice, "Granddad, why is my hat called a beanie? "He continued, staring intently at the shiny button at the peak. "Is it because the button on top looks like a bean?"
His grandfather, who had never really thought about it, paused for a moment before replying, "Well, Finn, I don't really know. But since it looks like a bean, it's the size of a bean, and would make a good bean, except maybe not so good to eat,...let's call it 'The Bean'. Granddad continued walking
Finn pondered this all for a moment, then turned his back to the wind and scampered after his granddad
From that day fourth, the bright shiny button on the peak of an Aoraki beanie was known as
'The Bean'(a true story)
