What is money maths?

Money maths is the everyday maths of rupees and paise: knowing our coins and notes, counting them, adding prices, giving change, reading a bill and comparing which buy is cheaper. Later it grows into money sense — telling needs from wants, saving for a goal, understanding interest, profit and a budget, and paying safely online. Young children start with Part 1 (Class 1–2), Part 2 is shopping maths for Class 3–5, and Part 3 builds real-life money sense for Class 6–8.

Money Maths & Financial Literacy questions

What is money maths for kids?

It is the maths of rupees and paise that children use every day: knowing coins and notes, counting money, adding prices, giving change, reading bills and comparing prices. This free course then builds money sense — needs and wants, saving, interest, budgets and safe digital payments.

Bachchon ko paise ka hisaab kaise sikhayein? (Hindi)

शुरुआत असली चीज़ों से करें — ₹1, ₹2, ₹5 के सिक्के और ₹10, ₹20, ₹50 के नोट पहचानना और गिनना। फिर दुकान का खेल खेलें: चीज़ों के दाम जोड़ना और बचे हुए पैसे (चेंज) गिनना। हर दिन 10–15 सवाल करें और अटकें तो “Show me how” दबाएँ। बड़े बच्चों को बचत, ज़रूरत और चाहत, और OTP/PIN कभी न बताने की आदत भी सिखाएँ।

What age or class is this money course for?

It is made for ages 5–14 (Class 1 to Class 8). Part 1 (coins and notes) suits Class 1–2, ages 5–8. Part 2 (shopping maths) suits Class 3–5, ages 8–11. Part 3 (money sense) suits Class 6–8, ages 11–14.

Which money topics should my child learn first?

Start with knowing the coins and notes, then counting coins and notes, then adding and subtracting money, and then giving change. Paise, bills, discounts and budgets come next, and money sense — saving, interest and safe payments — comes last.

Does this course teach safe online payments?

Yes, in simple, child-safe words: never share an OTP or PIN, a PIN is never needed to receive money, check the name and amount before paying, and tell a grown-up about prize links or strange calls. It does not name or promote any app or bank.

How do I get a certificate?
