Ring up the fun with the Teaching Cash Register! A perfect addition to any pretend store, this talking cash register helps teach basic math and money skills through creative play. Filled with engaging activities and a drawer stashed with life-size (make-believe) cash, the Teaching Cash Register helps kids make sense of currency with a coin reader that identifies both real and plastic coins. Other features include a generous LCD screen that shows transaction values in large, easy-to-read numbers, a working scale, and a scanner for pretend coupons and credit cards. Four interactive learning games take kids through multiple levels of play, increasing in difficulty as players advance their math skill levels. Large buttons help little fingers total up the orders, while lights and sounds capture the imagination. Winner of numerous awards, including an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award, the interactive Teaching Cash Register develops logic, reasoning, and coin recognition skills, and helps animate lessons about addition, subtraction, counting money, making change, and decimal usage. Measuring approximately 14 by 9-3/4 by 9 inches, the Teaching Cash Register requires 3 C batteries (not included) to power its playful "ka-ching!" --Heather Lyndon

Customer Reviews

Great Toy!!!
My boys just had their 3rd birthday and received A LOT of gifts, but the cash register is the only one they will play with! They can now say each coin and are counting to ten. They love using the creit card, scanner, and change bank. I will say when they push the open button the drawer comes out way too fast and throws the coins, but overall we are so happy!

fun toy, but can be picky
My two young daughters really enjoy this register. It has some great features like the credit card and coupon discount card, which are lots of fun for the kids. The money looks like real money and it helps kids learn about making change and counting money. My only beef with it is that sometimes the register acts up and sticks and has to be completely reset. So it sort of has to be handled with care.

Can't be beat!! A must have for every child!
I bought this for my 6 yr old daughter. She had been wanting a cash register for a while and after viewing other cash registers and seeing how cheaply they were made. I decided on this one because of it's excellent reviews. And I was NOT disappointed!! My daughter loves it. Her little sister (4 yr old) and their cousin (11 yr old) all loved it. It is built very well and the teaching games are great, plus the fact that they still can pretend play with it. I would recommend this for any child from age 3-11 or so.
