Grandma and the Eight Children in the Woods (1979)
The eight kids Maren, Martin, Marte, Mads, Mona, Milly, Mina and Morten has moved with their parents and grandmother from the tiny apartment in the city to a cozy, red house in the forest. Here there is plenty of room for everyone to play, and having grandmother around proves to be useful. She watches the kids, sells waffles to passing ski-goers, and mediates between her own local knights and the attacking Indians from Tiriltoppen.
