Okay kiddo, imagine you have a big treasure box full of your favorite toys and candy. You love your treasure box, but you know that someday you won’t be able to keep it forever. So, you need to create a plan for what will happen to your treasure box after you’re gone.
Just like your treasure box, grown-ups have things they love and need to take care of too. When they pass away, they want to be sure that the things they love go to the people or places they want them to go.
This is where a will and testament comes in. A will is like a grown-up treasure box plan. It’s a legal document that says who gets what after someone passes away. It includes things like property, money, and other belongings.
When someone makes a will, they get to choose who gets their treasure box items. For example, if they have a bike and they want their best friend to have it, they can write that in their will.
Sometimes people leave special instructions in their will, like how they want to be buried or what kind of funeral they want. This helps family and friends know how to take care of everything after someone passes away.
Overall, a will is like someone’s final gift. It’s a way for them to make sure that their loved ones and favorite things are taken care of after they’re gone.
