APRIL 2 – US Mint authorized by Congress in 1792 National Peanut butter and Jelly Day
Kids figure out the importance of money pretty early on in life – usually when you’re in a store and some toy or treat catches their eye. Start by teaching kids about the different denominations of coins. Let them sort coins into different piles, matching up quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies. Practice counting by ones, fives and tens with coins. The mint has some fun Online Games for kids about money. But where does all that money come from? Watch this fun video of how coins are made.
Kids love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches—and they’ll love them even more when you cut them into fun shapes. Simply take a cookie cutter and press firmly through both layers of bread to create dinosaurs, flowers, bunnies, or whatever your child chooses. You can use the same magic on other types of sandwiches, too. (Before serving peanut butter to other children, be sure they are not allergic.)
