Money & Making Change (for ages 6 & up) teaches kids how to count money and make change. Cool songs and games give kids plenty of practice with real-world skills.  We received a copy of this to check out at home.  Zach(6 yrs old) loves counting and has been interested in money for a couple years.  This was a great dvd for him. He really loved counting the coins and seeing all the different coins.  I liked how they explained all the coins and their variations that are available.  For the counting section it was really good.  I thought the area where they counted different coins together went just a little fast for beginners who might need time to recognize the coins first, but overall was good.  For Zach the making change part was new for him, but he was really interested.  I definitely think this is a great resource for helping children learn about what money is, its value and the mathmatics of using money.
