How-To |
Simply find an empty container to use for your piggy bank. The container could be a cookie tin, a shoe box, a plastic soda liter, etc.
Cut a slot in the top large enough for both coins and dollar bills to be placed inside the piggy bank.
Then use construction paper, glue, markers, and stickers to decorate the outside of your piggy bank.
Once you’ve created the piggy bank with your child, be sure to discuss with your child about money and how your child can use a piggy bank to save money.
