Saving pennies pays off

Avery has been collecting change she finds around the house (including in the couch cushions) for quite some time. At school this week they started math exercises using a pool of 30 bears and then grouping them into fives to learn some simple addition. We did the same thing with quarters, nickels and dimes here at home. We took $11 to the store and found we could buy two Barbie outfits! Math is fun!
