Okay kiddo, so let's talk about the economy of Jordan. Imagine you and your friends started a little shop where you sell lemonade to people. You make it with lemons and sugar and you charge people money for it. That's kind of like how the economy of Jordan works too.
People in Jordan do different jobs to make money. They might work in offices, factories, or shops just like your lemonade stand. Some people even work in agriculture, which means they grow crops like fruits and vegetables. Others might work in tourism and help people who come to visit Jordan have a good time.
All of these jobs help create things that people want or need, like food, clothes, or transportation. In Jordan, they also create things like minerals, like phosphate, that can be used to make fertilizer for growing crops.
Now, just like how you and your friends need more lemons and sugar to make more lemonade, Jordan also needs things from other countries to make their goods and services. Jordan has to import, or buy, some goods like oil and gasoline from other countries because they don't have those things in Jordan.
People in Jordan also use money, just like you use your allowance or the money you make from your lemonade stand. They can save it, spend it, or invest it in things like stocks or real estate.
In Jordan, the government also plays a big role in the economy. They help regulate prices and provide services like healthcare and education. They also work to attract foreign investors, which helps create more jobs and grow the economy.
Overall, the economy of Jordan is like a big lemonade stand where people work hard to create things that others want and need, and the government helps make sure everything runs smoothly.
