Do I Really Need That?

In our class we have been talking about and practicing using money to buy items. A very important money skill to learn is the difference between wants and needs. This can be kind of tricky because many things we buy we do not actually need like water or food, we just want a new item like a new hat or a stuffed bear. In today's lesson we will be learning about the difference between wants and needs and why it is important to buy something you need instead of something you want.
