Count up from the price to what the customer paid and hand back the exact change with coins and bills.
Making change means counting up from the price to the amount the customer paid: a gold bar climbs from the cost toward the payment as the child adds coins and bills, and the gap they fill is exactly the change owed. Because it counts up rather than subtracting on paper, it mirrors how a real cashier gives change. The play builds making change, counting money, coin values, and count-up subtraction — distinct from ringing up a total or counting a static pile. Best for Grades 2–4.
