I play this with my 6yr old and my 4yr old. They love it. It is awesome how it teaches counting money, it is always a different game. There is no way for them to just do the same thing they did last time in order to win. Once they move to the correct spot and have a certain amount of money they have to give or recieve, the spinners tells them which coins they can use to get to the specified amount. So it really requires a little thinking and the children are always amused by the different ways they can come up with an amount of money. Example: get to 52 cents with out using quarters. So with the coins left in thier hand they figure out how to count 52 cents. There is a little more to it than what I have explained and it even gets a little more fun and creative. Great game.

Bought this for my seven year old for christmas and we have played it several times. Great game to help kids learn value of money and how to count money. Downfall is that it really doesn't have a strategy or an excitement factor to it. Overall it is a good product to play once in a while to help your children with counting money but not a game that would just be fun to play.

I purchased the Money Bags game for my kids (ages 9, 7 & 7). They are having fun playing it and are learning along the way.

A player rolls the die and moves their playing piece ahead on the board. The positions on the board include things like "25C tooth fairy" and "46C dusting." Before the player collects money, they spin the spinner and it determines if they cannot use a particular coin or if they put their money in a circle on the board. There are some special positions along the board like "Bank Exchange" (ex: the player can exchange pennies in for nickels) and "$" (the player gets to collect the money on the board). Overall it is a fun educational game that my kids keep asking me to play with them.

I recently purchased this because my 6 year old had no concept of money. He did not know how to count money at all although we would let him pay for his own items at the store. Whenever we would let him pay for his own items at the store, he would simply throw a handful of money at the cashier and hope that it was enough. Well, after the first time playing this game, he was able to count using dimes, nickels, and pennies. He can not count with the quarters yet but I figure that it is just a matter of time.

The thing that I really enjoyed about the game is that he wanted to play again and again and did not realize that he was actually learning. He loved making money. At the end of the game, I ask him to convert as much of his change that he can into dollars. This helps him to realize that the coins translate into dollars.

I love the coin pieces as well. The plastic pieces are about as close as you can come to the real thing. My son was able to identify the real coins (which he really struggled with before) after playing the game and working with the plastic coins.

I highly recommend this game as a learning tool for youngsters who struggle with the concept of coins.

My 6 year old son loves everything to do with money. So when I saw this game I had to get it for him. He loves it. We play it every night and he is learning how to count money and make change. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves to play games
