CASTDRONA CHRONICLES™

LITTLE EXPLORERS

 At this age, money is still mostly invisible. To your child, money is just a card that always works. The deciding part happens somewhere they can't see it. Little Explorers starts before the numbers, with the thing underneath: noticing you have a decision to make, and learning you're allowed to think before you make it. Penny does it first, in a story. Your child practices it later, at the store, in a way you'll actually notice.
