Raising Financially Smart Children Starts here!
Practical tools and guidance for parents and early years educators.
Build Money Skills Through Play
Aligned the early years foundation stage (EYFS) Curriculum.
Communication & Language
Talking about prices, coins, and transactions boosts vocabulary. Engaging in role-play as shopkeeper and customer encourages listening, questioning, and conversational turn-taking.
Physical Development
Handling coins and items builds fine motor skills. Drawing, sticking or pressing buttons supports hand–eye coordination.
Personal, Social & Emotional Development
Taking turns develops cooperation. Giving or sharing resources develops empathy. Managing pretend “budgets” nurtures confidence and self-control.
Literacy
Reading price labels, item labels, and money-themed storybooks improves recognition and comprehension. Writing shopping lists or receipts strengthens writing skills.
Mathematics
Counting coins, adding totals, and giving change strengthens number fluency. Comparing prices introduces concepts like more/less and value for money.
Expressive Arts & Design
Designing jars, cards and other role-play items boosts creativity and self expression. Role-play scenarios encourage imaginative storytelling, critical thinking and problem-solving.
Understanding the World
Exploring where money comes from and how it is used builds real-world awareness. Learning about different currencies introduces diversity and global understanding.
