This is a fun purple electronic piggy bank that your child will enjoy. When you place a coin in the bank, he will tell you what you have deposited- then he'll shake, rattle and ask for more. This is a great tool to teach your child to recognize coins and count money while saving their pennies. It will help also help your child to build self-confidence. Turn your little spender into a big saver. This product requires two "AA" batteries that are not included.
