When you run out of chocolates at home what do you do? You buy them from a shop. You pay the shop money in exchange for the chocolate you just bought. This is called trade.
Countries too indulge in trade – buy and sell things – on a much larger scale. When our country buys something from another country, it’s called an import. When we sell something to another country, it’s called an export.
Here are some goods that India imports and exports. Can you try to guess which of these goods does our country import and which of these does it export? Drag each of the items into the import or export truck respectively and check how many you have got right.
