Coins planted sooner have more time to grow. Time does the work.
Mia and Leo each got 16 pretend coins and used the same garden rule: one new coin for every two coins in it.
Mia planted at once. Leo kept his in a pouch for two years first.
After four years Mia had 81 coins and Leo had 36. Nobody added any more coins.
The only difference was when they started. Starting sooner gave Mia's coins two more years to grow.
These are some of the questions on the sets. The printable sheets have more and an answer key.
15. Ten coins add 5 new coins, and 10 + 5 = 15.
Mia, with 81 coins. Mia started two years sooner, so her coins had more time to grow.

2 years. Leo waited two years first, and then they grew for two.
Ask a grown-up about something they started early, like a hobby or a skill, and what time did for it.
Ask your child about something a grown-up started early and what time did for it. The garden is pretend: in the app, a child's credits do not grow by waiting.
