Two cards fill in one row at a time. Goods are things like food, clothes and toys that we buy and keep, or rent, like a bike, and give back; services are jobs people do for us, like cutting hair and checking teeth, and some, like the library and the bus, are shared by many people. A snowflake brings a warm coat for cold places, one bus becomes three to show that big cities usually have more buses, and the video ends on the recap that goods and services help meet our needs and wants.
