How to Count Money with a Piggy Bank:
Children often grow up with a piggy bank into which they place their nickels, dimes and other change. Although most piggy banks require that you open them and manually count the change inside to figure out how much you've saved, some products exist that count the change as it goes in. Examples of such banks include those with a digital counter and banks that contain a coin sorter. You will need one of these kinds of piggy banks in order to count money with a piggy bank- Place the money you would like to count on a clean table or other flat surface. Divide the paper currency from the coins
- Manually count the amount you have in bills. Write this amount down on a piece of paper
- Begin placing the coins into a piggy bank that will count your coins. Some options include a digital piggy bank and a piggy bank that is also a coin sorter. Continue until all of the coins are inside the bank. If you are using a digital bank, the display will give you a grand total value of the coins. If you are using a sorter, you can count the number of complete rolls of coins and add them together using a calculator or by doing a manual calculation. If there is change in addition to the complete rolls, count it manually and add its value to the total amount of the full rolls
- Write the total amount in change on the piece of paper below the amount you have in bills
- Add together the amount you have in bills and the amount you have in coins. You can do this in your head, in the margins on the side of the paper, or by using a calculator
How to Open a Piggy Bank:
Parents sometimes use piggy banks to show children how to save money. Piggy banks used to commonly be made of a material such as porcelain or glass, and required that the owner break them in order to access the money stored inside. Many piggy banks today are made of plastic and can be opened without breaking them. Regardless of what type of piggy bank you own, opening one takes just a few minutes and can provide a significant monetary reward- Place the piggy bank on a flat surface, such as a counter or desk. If you have a porcelain or glass model that you plan on breaking, you may want to open it outside on a deck or driveway so that the pieces are easier to pick up
- Money will come rushing out of the bottom of the bank. Turn over the piggy bank and open it from the bottom, assuming it is made of plastic or metal. Most piggy banks have a door or rubber stopper you must pull out. The money will come out immediately, but you should shake the piggy bank several times to ensure that no loose change remains inside.
- Use a hammer to open porcelain and glass piggy banks.
- Strike the piggy bank with a hammer if it is made of porcelain or glass and there are no alternate means of opening it. Some traditional porcelain models have doors or rubber stoppers on the bottom
- Be careful not to hit the piggy bank too hard. You want to deliver a dull hit that cracks the bank into large pieces, not a sharp blow that sends porcelain fragments across the room
- For safety reasons, look away when striking the piggy bank or wear protective eye wear. Children should only strike a piggy bank under close adult supervision
- Clean up the broken piggy bank pieces, if necessary, and collect any loose change that may have rushed out of the bank. You can also vacuum the area where you broke the bank to ensure that no small shards remain
Tips & Warnings:
- You may also be able to find a model of see-through piggy bank that sorts coins into compartments and has an indicator line on the side that shows the value of the coins once they have reached a certain level
- Watch out for small paint shards, which may contain lead, especially if the piggy bank is several decades old.
