Why do some things cost more than others—and why do stores sometimes run out of items?
In this episode of Historical Perspectives, students explore the basics of supply and demand and how they work together in everyday markets. Using simple, relatable examples like lemonade stands and popular toys, listeners learn how the amount of something available (supply) and how much people want it (demand) affect prices. The episode also introduces the idea of the “invisible hand,” showing how buyers and sellers make choices that help balance the market.
This kid-friendly episode helps students understand how markets work, why prices change, and how they can make smart decisions as buyers and sellers in their own lives.
This pack can be used with the TPT resource.
