Little: This is a little problem that I can easily move on from. May need a small amount of help from an adult or friend. Example of a little problem: I lost my pencil.

Medium: A medium size problem is one that may be harder to solve, but it isn’t the end of the world and tomorrow it might not even matter. It may require help from an adult. Example of a medium size problem: I am feeling sick.

Big: A big problem is one that tomorrow will still be a problem and could take a long time to solve. A lot of help will be needed from an adult. Example of a large size problem: I am hurt and have an injury.
