Saving Money for a Bike
Mia wants a new shiny red bicycle. The bicycle costs money. Mia decides to save her money to buy it.
First, Mia creates her own piggy bank. She takes a clean plastic jar and decorates it with bright stickers. She cuts a small slot in the lid for coins.
Saving money means keeping your money in a safe place. When Mia earns money for doing small chores, she puts it in her jar. She puts in shiny pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters.
Every coin adds up over time. Mia checks her jar each week to count her savings.
Saving takes patience and planning. By saving her coins instead of spending them right away, Mia gets closer to her goal. Soon, Mia will have enough money to buy her dream bicycle!
