We got this game when my daughter was in first grade. She was having some trouble with her homework because the worksheets made it difficult for her to tell the difference between some of the coins. She was getting frustrated and kept saying, “I don’t get it.”
This game helped her get more comfortable with money, the value of money, and counting money.

I use this game in the classroom as a math support teacher and at home with my kids. All of the kids love it and it moves at a good pace. I appreciate how the game doesn’t just let the kids always decide what combination of coins they’ll use to represent a certain value. When they spin the spinner, it will sometimes land on no dimes or no nickels, and so on. So they need to figure out how to make a certain amount without those coins.

Many educational games aren’t nearly as fun as traditional board games. Not this one. This plays as well as any traditional board game. It’s easy to follow (even my five-year-old played). It also plays quickly, which is great for the young players with shorter attention spans. I plan on purchasing more of this brand.

I bought this game for my son, Zachary (7), when he was in kindergarten because he was having trouble telling the difference between nickels and quarters. Zachary, his sister Kaitlyn (8) and I still play it. One thing that I love about the game is that the rules are simple enough for the children to play together. But the biggest plus is that they are counting coins and quickly learn how to make change. My children LOVE when they land on the Banking space and are given the option of trading their coins in (ie. 2 dimes and a nickel for a quarter). Whomever has the most money at the end of the game wins (and it usually isn’t me! ha ha ha). I’m actually here on Amazon today to buy another copy of the game for my niece and nephew. It’s a terrific and fun way to learn about money. It always amazes me how many adults can’t make change… it’s important to me as a parent that my children can.

I recently purchased this because my 6 year old had no concept of money. He did not know how to count money at all although we would let him pay for his own items at the store. Whenever we would let him pay for his own items at the store, he would simply throw a handful of money at the cashier and hope that it was enough. Well, after the first time playing this game, he was able to count using dimes, nickels, and pennies. He can not count with the quarters yet but I figure that it is just a matter of time.
The thing that I really enjoyed about the game is that he wanted to play again and again and did not realize that he was actually learning. He loved making money. At the end of the game, I ask him to convert as much of his change that he can into dollars. This helps him to realize that the coins translate into dollars.
I love the coin pieces as well. The plastic pieces are about as close as you can come to the real thing. My son was able to identify the real coins (which he really struggled with before) after playing the game and working with the plastic coins.
I highly recommend this game as a learning tool for youngsters who struggle with the concept of coins.
