🎮 About Little Grocery

Little Grocery is an educational game where kids learn to count money and give change in a friendly shop. First the child is the buyer: they see the price of an apple, bread or a teddy bear and fill the tray with coins (1, 2, 5, 10) and notes (20, 50) until the money matches the price exactly. Next they pick the cheapest item and add two prices in a basket. In the last levels they become the shopkeeper and hand back the right change. Seven levels, eight rounds each, up to three stars per level. It is play money only: no real currency, no betting.

💡 Tips to win

• Start with the biggest coin that does not go over the price, then finish with small coins.
• Put in too much? Tap a coin in the tray to take it back.
• To work out change, count up from the price to the money you were given.
• When comparing prices, look at the tens digit first, then the ones.

🧠 What it builds

The game builds addition and subtraction skills and place value (tens and ones), teaches children to compare numbers and find the best price, and prepares them to handle money confidently in everyday life.
