I think that's a great idea. That's how kids learn, by playing and having fun. If they're not having fun doing something, they're not going to want to keep doing it. I always learned more in classes that I enjoyed. When I was in 1st or 2nd grade our teacher taught us about money by setting up a mock grocery store with all the little plastic foods and stuff so we could go 'shopping'. It was fun, and we learned how to count-and how to manage money at a young age.
