Give your child real coins to handle. The difference in size, color, and weight between coins is important for identification.
Play "store" with household items and coins — buying and making change is addition and subtraction in action.
Point out that a dime is smaller than a nickel but worth more. This teaches children not to judge value by appearance.
Start with pennies and nickels before introducing dimes and quarters. Each new coin adds a skip-counting pattern to remember.
