Money Boxes and Piggy Banks
Money boxes in wood, ceramic and metal, piggy banks, savings tins with a counter and boxes you have to open to empty.
Saving becomes visible
A money box turns saving into something a child can see and shake, which is far more concrete than a number in an app. Boxes that only open when full teach patience; ones with a stopper suit children who are saving towards something specific. Either way the coins get counted regularly.
Choosing one that lasts
Ceramic banks are traditional and often given at a birth, but they break, which is worth knowing before it happens. Wooden and metal boxes survive a bedroom shelf far better. A counter on the lid appeals to children who like to know exactly where they stand.
