More About Prices
Prices have been around for a long time. A long time ago, people traded things. They would give a cow for some grain. Now, we use money to pay for things. It is much easier!
Prices affect what we buy every day. If a toy is too high, we might not get it. But if it is low, we can buy it! Prices help us choose what we want.
In the future, prices may change more. New things might cost less. Or, some things might cost more. It is fun to see how prices change!
