Inflation rates tell us how much money is worth over time. If prices go up, your dollar buys less, like when a candy bar used to cost $1 but now costs $2. This can make everyday things more expensive and affect the whole economy.
Examples
- A toy that cost $5 last year now costs $7
- Rent went up by $100 a month
- Grocery bags are more expensive than before
