Two young presentersA learning resource for 9-11 year olds

Two young presenters talk about money, its uses -past and present - and why we trust its value.  They also explain prices, including why they change and how the Bank of England stops them from rising too rapidly.  The concepts are explained using humorous scenarios and relevant examples from every day life, to which young people can easily relate.
