Pi Day, March 14, celebrates math. Money
math is a favorite with kids. They love play money. Kids learn math skills
pretending grocery store or consumer math. Interacting with play money, children learn to count,
add, subtract, multiply, divide and skip count by fives, tens and twenty-five.

Consumer math is great way to demonstrate positive and negative numbers.
Positive numbers are money you have. Negative numbers can be thought of as
money you owe. Money math teaches fractions, decimals and percent, using
