Entrepreneurship for Kids Worksheet: Needs and Wants

Entrepreneurship lesson 2: Needs and wants · Set 1 · 40 questions
TalentJR

Business tip (Must have or nice to have?): Need = must have to live, stay healthy, safe or go to school (water, food, shoes, medicine, uniform, bus fare). Want = nice to have, but we can live without it (games, gadgets, extra shoes, sweets every day). Season changes what people need: umbrellas in the monsoon, warm drinks in winter.
