Change Maker Game

Wednesday November 18, 2009

As we continue our look at games for kids to play online, next up is the Change Maker Game.

It's a fun one to determine how much change to give a customer based on the sale price and the amount paid. In addition to figuring out how much change to give, you need to identify which coins to use!

Check out the Change Maker Game.

Money Word Games

Wednesday November 11, 2009

Another one of my favorite games for kids to play online is Money Word Games.

Kids read a word problem that involves a dollar amount. Then they need to select the correct coins needed.

Kids Selling Halloween Candy

Wednesday November 4, 2009

If your kids came home from Halloween with a huge stash of candy, check out the Halloween Candy Buy Back program.

Dentists will buy back the candy for $1 per pound, then ship it to soldiers overseas.

It's a great way to teach your kids about money, while saving their teeth and bellies from all the sugary candy!
