User Submitted Learning Resources Teaching Cash Register ReviewsDate: 2009-01-06 Fun for pretend paly, and educational THere are many toy cash registers in the market, and I am so glad I purchased this one, even if for the heaftier price of $39. Both my daughters 3 and 7 are having fun playing with it, but my 7 year old is also learning about money/change with it. When you ring the "bill" up, you can enter a total amount (e.g. $15) and when you select payment it will ask you whether it will be cash or charge. If you select cash, you then input the amount handed to you by the customer (e.g. $20) and it will tell you how much change the customer is due (i.e. $5). If you select credit, you run the credit card by the card slot, and it makes fun noises to check whether it's approved or not, and finally approves the charge. You can also put coins through another slot and it will tell you the value of each denomination. Another feature is that you can use it as a calculator, or as a game for addition/subtraction. So many uses, with fun all over. If you are buying this for a young child, say 2-4, some of the less expensive models will do, but if you want it to be something he/she can grow into and learn from, this looks like a pretty durable toy to last a few years. Date: 2009-01-06 Daughter loved it but... In the process of returning it to Amazon because the drawer kept sticking. Will probably order another one. 3 year old daughter anxiously awaiting her cash register. Date: 2009-01-06 AnGreat Way To Learn Math! I got this for my five-year-old niece and found it to be a great tool in helping her learn addition and subtraction. We played "market" with it and we would take turns tallying up our "fake food" and putting the correct amount in the cash register...or we would make change. My only complaint is that you have to be gentle when unscrewing the battery compartment. I very easily stripped the screw down there and I was using the correct super-tiny screwdriver to do so. Anyway, I give this five stars for cuteness of product as well! Date: 2009-01-03 A wonderful toy with one flaw... We bought this for my youngest daughters, who are ages 3 and 4. They LOVE it; in fact, we have video footage of the two of them screaming in rage at each other as they fight over who gets to use it first! The fact that they don't usually do this is a tribute to how much fun it is. The only problem we have encountered is that the entire register stops functioning if the "coin bank" door is ajar. Unfortunately, the machine determines whether it is open by way of a very small and fragile tab. It got stuck in the open position 3 days after we bought it, and I had to fix it with a flathead screwdriver (the tab is blue, located on the left side of the coin bank). Obviously, it is possible that we received a defective cash register, and everyone else's will work fine. Date: 2008-12-10 EXCELLENT LEARNING TOOL After researching many different learning cash registers, we chose this one for our daughter last Christmas. This is an excellent toy/learning resource. Now that she is in 1st grade, she is actually using it more. When friends come to play, it works great as a scanner cash register..and she likes to "weigh" the produce. As a mom, I like that the toy turns itself off..battery saving and it has the math games in different levels as well. This is an excellent product and well worth the money. You will get years out of this product!
