Playing store

The best money game for little kids.

3 min read

Playing store teaches prices, paying and making change, and it's fun.

How

  • Use empty food boxes and price tags from 1 to 10 cents
  • Take turns being shopkeeper and customer
  • Use real coins as they get older
  • Add a budget: "You have 25 cents. What will you buy?"
