Budget
Imagine you have a jar filled with your favorite candies. You want to make sure that you have enough candies for the entire week, so you decide to count them and put them into separate jars labeled Monday to Sunday.
This is just like making a budget, where you count how much money you have coming in, and put it into different jars (or categories) representing your different expenses, like rent, groceries, utilities, transportation, etc.
Just like the candy jars, you want to make sure that each jar has enough money to last until the end of the week (or month). You also want to make sure that you are not spending more money than you have in each jar.
By making a budget, you can keep track of how much money you have and where it is going. This helps you to make smarter choices about how to spend your money. It also helps you to save money for bigger goals, like buying a new toy or going on a vacation.
Remember, just like with your candy jars, it's important to be honest with yourself about how much money you have and how much you can spend. This way, you can enjoy your candies (or money) without worrying about running out too soon!
