Message:: [QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 758722, member: 4552"]WOW is that a complicated question. There are so many things to consider. For one thing what is the ages of the kids in question. If 1, 2, 3, years old, not likely to be of any use. If 4 to 6 area, possibly the usage of coin forums like this one, a Red Book on coins, a few of those cheap Whitman Folders to try to fill from change would help. After about 7 to 13, there is so many other way more important things in life for them that sitting around with coins is just not really to interesting. At about 13 and up, there are now members of the opposite sex that surely are more interesting than some old, dirty, dented coins. Aren't those coin things supposed to be used to buy presents for girls?:smileAll kind of kidding but also a little of real life. Today kids are realy into the computer age and computer games. Then too there is FaceBook, Utube, MySpace and on and on and on. A hobby like coins today is really tuff to interest the younger generation. I would suggest if possible taking kids to a coin show, coin store, purchasing some books on coins for them. Find some really odd looking coins for them to start.[/QUOTE]
