What is money?

Money is like a super-special tool we use to get things we need! See those green rectangles? Those are PAPER BILLS! They feel a bit like leaves but they're much stronger so we can use 'em to buy bigger things like yummy groceries or new shoes. And check out those shiny circles—those are METAL COINS! They're heavy and make a fun 'clink' sound when they jingle in your pocket. We use these for smaller things, like a yummy piece of fruit. Wait, did you see that plastic card? That's a DIGITAL CARD! It's like magic because it keeps your money invisible inside a computer until you're ready to pay. When we want to keep our money safe for later, we put it in a SAVINGS JAR! It's like a cozy home for your coins until you have enough for a BIG surprise. All of this is for FAIR TRADE, which just means tradin' your money to get something awesome in return! It's how we help each other get what we need. Tiny Concepts.
