For this activity you will need to spend 15minutes, two or three times a week if possible.

To Buy Or Not To Buy? - Home Activity

Through the character of Sahana, children will learn about making money choices, based on priorities, needs and wants.

This activity is part of our range of Money Heroes resources for children with special educational needs.

These resources have been adapted to be flexible for use in a range of settings and with children of varying abilities or special educational needs. Rather than using age groups or key stages, each activity has been given a difficulty level, based on children’s financial knowledge, skills and understanding. Practitioners should choose activities based on the financial capability level of the children they are working with.

This is an **intermediate/advanced** level activity – this level suits children who are ready to start building on their financial education knowledge and basic understanding with more challenging thinking and development of skills.
