Yeah, I don’t know why our school hasn’t done something similar. We have an app where we can order and pay for lunch orders. Surely they could implement tokens or vouchers for stuff like this.
That said, I think a big part of it for the kids is having some coins in their hands, and shopping for stuff, calculating what they can afford, how much they’ll have left, etc.
Yes, we have a similar app for lunches. Not clanky but it works fine.
It should help to train them for a cashless future, lol. I was in a toystore recently and I noted the check out had a contactless payment terminal and phone!
I did note myself that playing shop in the playground, my kids were unfamiliar with the process of shopping due to covid meaning I didn’t take them into supermarkets much up until last year. They had no concept of change. I pay everything on phone and don’t carry cash.
