On a recent trip with her family, Daniela got to talking with her kids about how neat money is. How it looks different depending on where in the world you are.
Try this experiment at home with your kids. They likely know that in the US, our money is the “dollar”.
But what about other names for money? After a quick brainstorm, my kids came up with:
🇨🇳 In China, it is “yuan”
🇲🇽 In Mexico, it’s “peso”
🇷🇴 In Romania, it’s “leu”
🇪🇺 In the European Union, it’s “euro”
🇬🇧 In Great Britain, it’s “pound”
No matter what it's called, we know that money is something used to exchange for goods or services. And fun conversations like this one are a great way to start teaching your kids about how to use it wisely.
