I do not know how to explain it in a simply way to the kids. Any suggestion?
Thanks! | j**********y 发帖数: 1360 | 2 from a layman's point of view, banknotes represents the total amount of prod
ucts you can purchase. The extra banknotes printed devalues the "purchasing
power" of each banknote.
You can show this to the kids through an easy demonstration. Get 5 candies,
and give the kids 5 tickets to exchange for the candies, one for each. Allow
them to exchange for 2 candies, and then "produce" 3 more tickets. This way
, with no increase of the amount of candies, they need to turn in 2 tickets
for one candy. If
