Description
While kids may love banks of all shapes and sizes, the LearningCents Bank is the first bank that does more than hold money – it teaches kids important lifetime financial lessons. The LearningCents Bank is the large, see-through bank that features 3 different cylinders: one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. Each week, kids can deposit their allowances in the 3 different LearningCents Bank compartments, in order to learn the importance of spending only what they have, saving for the future, and giving to those in need. In addition to learning these important concepts, the LearningCents Bank comes with a dry erase pen for keeping track of money on the cylinder lids, alphabet stickers to label their bank, a special closure to help keep money in the Save compartment, and tips for kids. The LearningCents Bank is one cool way to track, spend, save, and give money!

Quiet play provides children an opportunity to think and reason and can include such activities as: * Beading a necklace * Working on puzzles * Reading or looking at pictures By providing a silent environment, children can focus on their toys and playthings and really get down to the work of being a child. After all, play is the work of children!
