    Money Museum Debuts Kids Zone to Teach Kids About Money
    Free open house includes minting demonstrations, prizes and lots of play time



    The American Numismatic Association debuts the "Kids Zone," an interactive exhibit designed to teach children about money, with a free opening reception from 2-5 p.m. Oct. 6 at the Edward C. Rochette Money Museum in Colorado Springs.


    This is from the ANA website. My kids are too old but i might take my grandchildren if we go on a skiing vacation.

    Kids Zone at the Money Museum








    The Kids Zone teaches kids about money the way they learn best: by doing and playing.




    Through fun activities, interactive exhibits and FREE classes, children can pick up basic and advanced concepts - from how to make change to understanding monetary systems. The exhibits teach children about history, geography, trade, art, world cultures and more.




    Can you match the State Quarter to its state? Guess whether or not salt was once used as money? How about name the different parts of a coin? Visit the Kids Zone at the Money Museum to find out.




    You'll also explore the world's coinage and take home your very own world coin, play games like Bingo and Monopoly, design a coin to display for everyone to see, or just relax and read a story.

    The real question is who would fly their kids to Colorado Springs for that. Hmmm, honey, lets skip Disneyland this year and take the Kids Zone at the ANA, the "REAL" Magic Kingdom!
