What does Trade mean? (for kids)

Trade means swapping one thing for another. When you swap your eraser for a friend's card at recess, that's a trade. Both of you give something and both of you get something.

Try it at home: ask your child, "What did you swap today? Was it a good swap?"

Step up later: Barter, Market (primary), then Supplier, Contract (high school).
