Our Milo’s Money game has been a hit in it’s first year. Read some of the comments below:

“Following a week’s maths focus on money using Milo, my goodness the game was SUCH a hit! The kids loved it. Like someone else said, the noises and dragging onto belt and then paying was their favourite bit, I think because it felt very real.”

“Children rarely see physical money changing hands. We use phones and cards to pay. Without this early exposure to coins children are missing out the basics of counting money and understanding value. – demonstrating value of handling/awareness of ‘real’ money.”

Teacher

“I thought the illustrations were really lovely and it was nice that the colours are quite muted. Juno, aged 6, has glasses and chose Steg the dinosaur – who also has glasses.

I like the way they have to tap the dinocard to pay – it was rather like our trips to Sainsbury local when I let the kids do the check out! – dinosaur character relatable for children and story relates to real life experiences”
