Peter Pig's Money Counter - An Interactive Game
By: www.practicalmoneyskills.com
It’s time to fill your piggy bank – but you will need to sort out your US coins first to work out how much money you have!
This online activity has three different games to play. First, you must sort the US coins into the correct jars. Secondly, there are four jar lids to choose from, each marked with an amount of money, and it’s up to you to work out how much the coins add up to and choose the jar with the matching sum.
Finally, the third exercise shows coins scattered on the right side and the left side of the table, and you must slide a skateboard in the direction of the coins that add up to the most money.
Each correct answer you get increases the amount of money in your piggy bank – but be quick, the challenge is up against the clock! There are three difficulty levels too to test yourself against in this activity for first and second grade kids. How much money can you add to your piggy bank?
