Have you ever thought about making your own money? Well, today we are going to learn how to create fun money with pictures of courageous people who changed the world!
Imagine having your face on money! You’d have to be very special and brave, just like Harriet Tubman and Abraham Lincoln. These are some of the amazing people we learned about in a book called “Courageous People Who Changed the World.”
One of my favorites is Malala. She is a brave girl who helped other girls go to school. And then there’s Gandhi, who showed us how to solve problems peacefully without fighting. Isn’t that cool?
Here’s how you can make your own special money at home:
Step 1: Draw your courageous person in the middle of your money template. Who will you choose?
Step 2: Decorate your money. You can use any colors you like. Did you know that in the United States, money is often green? Maybe it’s because goblins made it, and they’re green too!
Step 3: Cut out your money and share it with your friends. Imagine buying something with your very own money!
Think about how you would feel if someone told you that you couldn’t go to school. It wouldn’t be fair, right? That’s why people like Malala are so important. They help make the world a better place.
Maybe one day, your face will be on money because you did something courageous too! Remember, you have what it takes to change the world.
If you want to learn more about amazing people, check out the book “Courageous People Who Changed the World.” It’s full of exciting stories that will inspire you to be brave and kind.
Now, go ahead and create your own money and share it with your friends. Who knows, maybe you’ll inspire someone else to be courageous too!
Design a Courageous Coin: Imagine if you could create a coin with a courageous person on it. Find a small, round object like a bottle cap to trace a circle on paper. Draw a picture of someone brave, like Malala or Gandhi, in the center. Decorate the edges with symbols that represent courage, such as a heart or a star. Share your coin with a family member and explain why you chose that person.
Courageous Acts Journal: Start a journal where you write down or draw pictures of courageous acts you see or do each day. It could be something as simple as helping a friend or trying something new. At the end of the week, share your journal with your class or family and talk about how these acts make the world a better place.
Role-Play a Courageous Story: With a friend or family member, pick a story about a courageous person from the article or the book “Courageous People Who Changed the World.” Act out a scene where the person shows bravery. You can use simple props from around the house. Afterward, discuss how it felt to be in their shoes and what you learned from their courage.
