Dream Big
No matter what your dreams are, the key to financial security is to have a "financial
plan." That means you should set financial goals and start saving or investing to reach
those goals. While that may sound hard, it doesn't have to be.
You'll first need to figure out where you're starting from - for example, how much
money have you saved already, and how much money will you get from your parents.
Next, you should set goals. Do you want a bike? A college education? New clothes?
Make your own list and then think about which goals are the most important to you?
List your most important goals first.

Fun Dairy Facts:
• Milk was delivered in bottles for the first time on January
11, 1878.
• Did you know that adding a pinch of salt to your quart or
gallon of milk makes it stay fresh longer?
• A cow produces an average of 6.3 gallons of milk daily,
that’s more than 2,300 gallons each year, and 350,000
glasses of milk in a lifetime!
• Any kind of cupcakes
• Green sprinkles
• Your favorite frosting
• Teddy Grahams
• Green food dye
Directions:
Be sure to ask an adult for help.
Step 1: Use the green food dye to make your frosting green.
Step 2: Frost cupcakes and then add green sprinkles leaving the
center open.
Step 3: Smash a handful of the Teddy Grahams to make dirt and then
sprinkle it in the center of the cupcake.
Step 4: Push your little groundhog (teddy bear) into the middle of the
cupcake. You may need to add more dirt around him.
