A million dollars is like having a super big piggy bank that’s full of coins and bills, so many that you can’t even count them all in one day!
What is money?
How much is a million dollars?
Imagine you have 100 coins in your piggy bank, that's how much money you might save from doing chores. A thousand dollars is like having 10 of those piggy banks full of coins. And a million dollars? That’s like having 1,000 of those piggy banks, or even more!
If you had a million dollars, you could buy lots and lots of candy bars, toys, or even a fancy bicycle that can go really fast! It's like having an endless supply of treats for a whole year.
