The piggy bank

A game for children aged 3 to 5: drop coins into the piggy bank until you reach the goal and win the star. Practices counting toward a goal and waiting.

The piggy bank

Save one coin at a time until the bank is full.

What it practices

Waiting for a goal

Five short rounds. Each round raises the difficulty a little and gives a star. Missing costs nothing: the game simply invites another look.

How to join in

  • Name the goal before you start: "Let us collect five coins for the star".
  • At home, a real jar with a small goal teaches the same thing with their hands.
  • Celebrate reaching the goal, not the speed.
