Think of tax as a small piece of your cookie that you give to help everyone. When you have a cookie, and you share a tiny bit with others, it helps make things better for everyone, like fixing the playground or building a new library. Adults give a little bit of their money, just like sharing cookie crumbs, to help make the town or city a nicer place to live.
Imagine you’re in a big team, and everyone needs to bring a small toy to share so the team can have fun. Tax is like that toy. When everyone brings their toy, the team has lots of fun things to play with, like swings and slides. People give a little bit of what they have, so everyone can enjoy the big playground together.
Think of tax like seeds you plant in a garden. You give a few seeds, and they grow into beautiful flowers or tasty vegetables. When everyone plants their seeds, the garden becomes a lovely place. So, tax is like planting seeds to grow a happy community.
