How can I get my kids to understand the value of a dollar?

Teaching Kids Monetary Values

Establish an "I Want" List. Write down the name of every toy your child asks for. Put next to that a green x for every dollar the toy costs. You will be creating a bar graph for your child to see how many more or fewer dollars one item is than another.
