savings challenge activity where:
- A child chooses
two friends to participate.
- Over a
14-day period (two weeks), each participant tracks how much money they save each day.
- At the end of two weeks, the person who saved the
most total money wins.
- The winner can use the savings to treat the others (e.g., buy snacks or small gifts).

✔ How to Solve / Complete This Worksheet:
Since this is not a math problem with a single answer but rather an
interactive financial literacy activity, here’s how to complete it:
#### Step 1: Choose Two Friends
Fill in the names of your two friends in the boxes labeled:
- Name 1:
- Name 2:
- Name 3: (your own name)
> Example:
> - Name 1: Alex
> - Name 2: Jamie
> - Name 3: You
---
#### Step 2: Track Daily Savings
Each day for 14 days, write down how much money you saved.
> For example:
> - Day 1: $2.00
> - Day 2: $1.50
> - Day 3: $3.00
> ...and so on.
You’ll do this for all three participants (you and your two friends). Each person records their daily savings in their respective column.

#### Step 3: Add Up Total Savings After 14 Days
At the end of two weeks, calculate the
total amount saved by each person.
> Example:
> - You: $2 + $1.50 + $3 + ... =
$28.00
> - Friend 1: $1 + $2 + $2 + ... =
$25.00
> - Friend 2: $3 + $2 + $1 + ... =
$30.00
Then determine the
winner — whoever has the highest total.
