Other ways to learn about money - Add up amounts of coins that are available at home. Set up a shop, make price labels for toys or food items and 'sell' them to family members using real coins. Check that they have given you the correct amount of money. Just remember to give it back when you have finished playing! 

There are also some on-line money games available on these links...
