My First Money Skills Learning Week (Ages 5–9)

Real-world money skills, learned through doing. My First Money Skills Learning Week is a hands-on, 3-day learning pack designed to introduce children aged 5–9 to money through practical, everyday experiences.

Across three calm and engaging learning days, your child will handle and explore Australian money, compare prices, learn about needs and wants, make simple spending decisions, and even create their own little shop.

Inside this learning week, your child will:

• Explore Australian coins and their values
• Compare everyday prices
• Practise spending within a simple budget
• Explore needs, wants, spending and saving
• Make their own money choices
• Create and price their own little shop
• Practise buying, selling and paying through role-play
• Build confidence with real-world decision-making

Each day follows the familiar NeuroLearn™ rhythm with grounding, three hands-on learning activities, a movement break and reflection, with Australian Curriculum v9 connections and parent evidence ideas included.
