Financial ideas children can see and use
Children earn pretend dollars in village jobs, decide how much to spend and save, work towards a goal, and progress into deeper budgeting, cost and profit decisions.
Australian money
Count notes and coins, make exact totals, compare values and reason about different combinations.
Spend, save, needs and wants
Split earnings, plan for a goal and notice that choosing one thing can mean waiting for another.
Budgets, costs and profit
Protect money for later, compare options and explore income, expenses, profit and simple interest.
One game, different starting points
Parent / Teacher View includes learning settings so a grown-up can choose a gentler start or a more demanding extension.
Year 2 support
Smaller totals, familiar Australian money and clear visual prompts for early money confidence.
Years 3-5 core play
Money combinations, change, goals, trade-offs, budgets and needs-versus-wants decisions.
Year 6 extension
Larger values and deeper reasoning about planning, savings, costs, revenue and profit.
Simple to try in class
There is no required timetable or testing schedule. Children can return intermittently over several weeks.
