We have been working hard this week on using money. We all like to spend it, but there's a lot to know about using money to make purchases or make change. This is a critical life skill that we all have to master to be successful! A great activity to do at home to help support our learning is to play "shopkeeper". Assign prices to a few items around your house, and let your child practice making purchases with coins and bills. You could even trade roles, and let your child practice making change as you make purchases.
There are also a number of online games specifically for using coins. Here's another fun game for us to practice counting money! Money Games at ToonUniversity.com
Have fun exploring all that money! :)
