A Money Game

The game consists of a game board and game cards. Print out the game board pieces and the card pieces you wish to use. Fit the three game board pieces together on a large piece of cardboard for strength. I have intentionally left the game board plain so that it can be personally customized with a name or pictures or both. Cut apart the game cards and reinforce them with lightweight cardboard. I highly recommend covering the board and cards with clear contact paper.

 

To play the game you will need:

Game pieces such as buttons for each player

Coins

 

To begin play, decide on the turn order. Each player in turn picks a card. There are three types of cards. There are cards that are for identification of coins and coin words. There are cards that require a player to count out the correct amount of change. There are cards that require a player to identify the correct change. A player moves forward or backward the number of spaces on the card depending on a correct or incorrect answer. Whoever reaches the finish line first wins!

 

You need not use all the cards. Use only those appropriate for the level of your students/children.

 

I have also put together a blank card template for you to use.
