SAVE FOR LATER
As a young mom, I’ve always believed in teaching my children about money early on. One day, while tidying up the playroom, I had an idea that would change our family’s approach to finances.
I created some printable play money, ranging from $1 to $100 bills. These weren’t just colorful pieces of paper – they became tools for valuable life lessons.
We started using this play money for everything from chores to rewards. My little ones quickly learned the joy of earning and the importance of saving. It wasn’t long before they were setting goals for bigger “purchases” like extra screen time or a special outing.
What amazed me was how naturally they picked up concepts like budgeting and decision-making. They’d carefully count their earnings, weighing whether to spend on small immediate treats or save for something bigger.
Now, I’m sharing these printables with you. They’re perfect for classrooms, homeschooling, or family activities. You can use them to create engaging math lessons or set up pretend stores at home.
These free, easy-to-print PDFs include various denominations, making them versatile for different age groups and learning stages. Whether you’re a parent or teacher, these play money sheets offer a hands-on way to introduce financial literacy.
So why not give it a try? Download these play money printables and watch as your children learn the value of money through play. It’s a simple tool that could spark important conversations and skills that last a lifetime.
