Money lesson....


Kyla finding her books.

Jill searching for the perfect one.


Jill making sure she had enough and having a hard time parting with it.

Kyla counting her money.

Kyla has discovered a series of books called Rainbow Magic. The first series is about rainbow fairies who were trapped by Jack Frost and need to be found in order to bring color back to Fairyland. Each book is about a fairy that represent a color in the rainbow. The books are not available at the library so I told Kyla in order to buy the last 3 (we already read the first 4) she needed to use her own money. She was thrilled and Jill of course wanted to join in. Though Jill had a harder time parting with her coin. It was a fun and informative afternoon learning about the different types of money and the amounts of each coin and then purchasing the books themselves. Maybe it's time to start an allowance for Kyla???
