Have you ever tapped a card to buy something and wondered where the money actually went? In this episode of Little Learners Lab, we compare two forms of money—cash you can hold and digital money that lives in computers—to discover what they have in common. Along the way we learn what a mint is, how banks keep track of your money, and why both forms represent the exact same kind of value. We wrap up with a campfire singalong so the big idea sticks. Grab a coin or a card from home and see if you can spot the difference!
In this episode:
- What money actually is and why people trust it
- How cash and digital money are made and moved
- A singalong song to remember the big idea
A new song and a new lesson, every single day
