How do you explain the saying hear no evil see no evil and speak no evil to a child?
This proverb is symbolized by three monkeys, one with his hands over his eyes, another with his hands over his ears and the last with his hands over his mouth.
Different cultures interpret the meaning differently. In the Western world it symbolizes those who do nothing when evil things are being done by others. People who "look the other way" to avoid getting involved when evil is being done. Like the German people when the Nazis were persecuting the Jews.

Walk your monkey around the yard with its leash several times each day. This helps the monkey grow accustomed to the leash and to being outside of the cage.
- 8
Soothe a skittish monkey by sitting next to it and speaking quietly to it. This will help train the monkey to understand that you are a source of comfort when it is out of its cage.

Use a piece of food to entice your pet monkey back into its cage after the first time it has been outside the cage. This helps train your pet that the cage is its home.

Stay calm when your new monkey first bites you. Do not snatch back your hand, as this can further scare an already upset monkey. Grasp the monkey by its scruff (the fur and skin at the back of its neck). Then, calmly place the monkey back in its cage.
