How do I get started with Squishy Snack Stand?
Quick answer
Pick or make a player, then start. Your squishy runs a snack stand. Five customers make a shift, and each one asks a money question.
What it is
- A money game for kids 4 to 12.
- US coins and bills: penny, nickel, dime, quarter, $1, $5.
- iPhone and iPad.
- No ads. Nothing online. No accounts.
First launch
- Pick a player on the first screen, or make one.
- The age sets where you start. Older kids skip the easy shifts.
