Coins and Bills

Coins are small, round, and shiny! In the United States, we use different kinds of coins like pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. The penny is a pretty copper color and has Abraham Lincoln’s face on it. The other coins are silver and show other famous leaders. Each coin has its own value, and they are fun to collect!

Bills are made of special green paper and are shaped like rectangles. The one-dollar bill has George Washington on it, and it is the most common bill we use. People use coins and bills to buy things they need, like healthy snacks and warm clothes. It is a great idea to save your money in a piggy bank so you can watch it grow!
