Money Worksheets for Kids
Money Riddles UK

Welcome to the 2nd Grade Math Salamanders Money Worksheets for Kids.

Children love solving puzzles and quizzes. These money quizzes are a great resource to get your child to learn about money in a fun and accessible way.

The puzzles on this page are for UK coins only - with money amounts up to £10.

Knowing how to handle and calculate with money is a very important life-skill.

During Year 3, children build on their knowledge and skills they have achieved during Year 2.

By the time children reach the end of Year 3, they should be able to:-

  • use decimal notation for amounts of money, e.g. £3.27
  • change amounts in £ to amounts in pence and back;
  • count money up to £10;
  • calculate change for amounts of money up to £1 mentally;
  • solve simple problems involving money;
  • use informal methods to add and subtract money amounts in £ and pence.

Our worksheets will support your child with these objectives.
