Money Skills - Decisions

Description

This is a session to cover Part 3 of the Money Badge - Decisions (Want, need & share)

I have attached sheets for you to use.


Resources

Sheets attached... you need to print out 3 shopping lists and the shopping items need printing and laminating before the session ready to use.

Instructions

I have based this activity on 3 groups of 6 children so if you have more or less you may need to adjust it slightly. The basic idea is that each group has an identical shopping list. You have a table in the middle of the room that is a shop with your pre-cut and laminated items (including the money you will give them). They come and buy what they need for the main course, then you discuss items they could have shared such as cooking oil...then work out how much money they have left to buy a desert, the plan is they don't have enough unless they share their money :) discuss all things suggested on the leaders sheet.

You can then do a game using the laminated shopping items. get the children into 3 teams and the laminated shopping items at the far end of your hall on a chair . they have to run and get 1 item at a time and bring it back and put into a bucket or something similar at the other end of the room. they keep going until the first team collects all items.
