As we are getting ready for our big DisneyWorld vacation, we wanted to give the boys a little extra spending money before we went. Instead of just handing them a few bucks, I decided it might be a bit adventurous (and a bit homeschoolish) to have them take the money out of our money jar and count it up. Of course, there would be a few incentives. First, if you count out $30, you could keep it. Second, whoever guessed closest to the actual amount could get an extra $5. Here are their guesses of how much loose change was in our money jar:
~Tom: $87.33
~Julie: $125
~Connor: $95
~Josh: $175
~Cole: $87
~Toby: $100,000
The winner? JOSH! There was actually $225 sitting in a jar that we have dumped our extra change into over the past 10 years! (I've had the jar before Tom and I were married!) But, the opportunity to spend a few minutes with my kids looking at old coins and laughing together? Priceless!


What a fun project! Thanks for capturing. Love Toby's guess!
