Ms. Piggy Bank 4.0 provides an effective and entertaining way for
children ages 6 to 10 to learn about money. Ms. Piggy Bank offers 6
different money activities, all using high quality speech and
graphics, and full mouse support. The simplest activity teaches the
names and values of coins and bills up to twenty dollars. Your child
will quickly learn the value of each coin as they try to maneuver a
piggy bank to catch falling coins. Your child will learn, for
example, that two quarters are equal to a half dollar in the Money
Equivalents activity. In the Total Money activity your child will
enter the total of the displayed coins and/or bills on a cash
register. The Select Money activity displays a total and your child
selects the coins and/or bills which add up to that total. An
entertaining board game for 1 or 2 players allows your child to put
his newly acquired skills to work, earning money and an opportunity
to visit the Toy Store where he can practice making a purchase and
counting the amount of change received. The program is easily
configurable for children of various ages and skill levels.

Special requirements: 286 12 MHz or higher system, 640 KB RAM, Hard
