๐Ÿ“š Topic Summary

Everything around us can be sorted into two main categories: goods and needs. Needs are things we must have to survive, like food, water, and shelter. Without them, we can't live healthy lives. Goods are things we want or use. They make our lives more comfortable or enjoyable, like toys, books, or video games. It's important to understand the difference so we can make smart choices!

  1. Needs

  2. Items that satisfy our wants and desires.
  3. Things required for survival, like air, food, and water.
