Logic Skills
For development of logical skills this product is on the mark and steers children towards an abundance of logical skills, all of which are very important when it comes down to spending money or being given the correct change from a purchase.

Logical communication will be worked on through constant role plays between children while they imagine they are out shopping and spending in much the same way that they have seen Dad and Mom do.

Age Range
The makers suggest an age from 5 years up and it is easy to understand why, because children under 5 years might be inclined to put plastic coins in the mouth and this would present a risk. However, under very caring supervision, some parents have stated they used this innovative child's toy to introduce them to selective functions. A parent playing with a younger child and helping them learn to identify paper money numbers does seem plausible so long as safety remains constant.
