What can you use printable play money for?

You can use the play paper money to reward kids. For example, every time they tidy their room, they get one play dollar. When they save $20, they can get a special treat. You can either use the money instead of behavior charts or together with a behavior chart. For example, once they complete a behavior chart, they get $5, and when they save $50, they get a special prize.

The printable play money can also be used in various games and can be a fun way to teach kids about money, small change, and basic mathematics.


FAQ

The uploaded photo is too small for the frame?

Drag the photo (by pulling the little square on the bottom right) until the picture expands enough to fill the frame.

How do you change the denomination?

Click on the denomination and type in the number that you want to appear. You can delete the text entirely and type in your own text.

How do you make the text smaller or larger?

Drag the text (by pulling the arrows on the bottom right) until the text-box is as big as required.

How do you add text?

Just click on the icon that says “add text.” For example, you can write a message such as well done! You have earned this note for excellent behavior!

Can teachers at school use this paper money?

Yes, you can upload a photo of each child, a class photo, or you can choose people that the class feels deserve to appear on the play money. You can also upload a school logo.

How do you download or print the fake money?

The file can only downloaded as a PDF file or as an image file. The best way is to download to your computer and then print the file. You can also try printing directly from the play money maker, but the results are often not as good, depending on your printer’s settings.

How can play money be used to improve behavior?

Give reward bucks right after a child or student behaves well. Over time, behavior improves based on a theory called token economy. This is a form of behavior modification designed to increase desirable behavior and decrease undesirable behavior with the use of tokens (in this case, play money). You give children the “behavior bucks” (play money) immediately after they display desirable behavior. They can exchange the fake money for a reward or privilege. Teachers can use this method at school, and parents can use it at home.

How do you make the notes smaller or bigger?

You can control the size with your printer’s settings. Most printers enable you to determine how many copies of an image will be duplicated on a page. For life-sized notes print about four copies per page depending on your printer. If you want to print mini money then select as many copies as your printer allows on one page.

    The money is too large. How can you reduce the size to get more on a page?

    Brenda,
    The money should be pretty much the same size as real money but if you want to reduce the size then you can do so by changing your printer’s settings. Each printer is different but once you click on print you can usually make the image smaller or print two pages on one in which case you will get 6 bills per page.

    I really wish that the $5, 10 and 20 were available as well. This is the best template which I have found to be able to have realistic looking money and still be able to edit the photos to use in the classroom. Students will have to have the cheap looking editable money for the missing denominations in order to practice using all the denominations. Please let me know when the others are available.
