With coins you can teach about history, geography, important people, places and things.

The problem with saving that kind of currency is that you forget the actual value of the money, where American currency is quite familiar. I would start them with something they know has value.....

I know my kids were fascinated by foreign coins brought home by relatives after a visit to another country. Collecting special coins minted just to commemorate an event or occasion is a good idea too.

Special coins are minted for various reasons and events and they're wonderful to collect over a lifetime. For instance, money is being raised in our area for a major national project and coins were designed and minted for that.

Just the other day our 4 year old grandson took a dollar out of his box and brought to my wife and said, "Here grandma this is for all the nice things you do for me" Sam Monacohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13265336321113623191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1874262419752354657.post-55156538195735368042016-10-26T07:45:52.342-05:002016-10-26T07:45:52.342-05:00I like that the children learn to look at the mone...I like that the children learn to look at the money in a whole different way, they see the President on one side and maybe the National Parks, or a Monument or something "special" on the other side. It can be used to teach them something about some other part of the country that they haven't yet seen.
