A Conversation IV:
Scene: Dylan helps Sarah push the cart that Jordan is riding in as they search for popcorn in Target. Dylan puts his hand in his coat pocket.
Dylan: Wow, Mama, wook it! I found four pieces of money! I have four dollars!
Sarah: That's awesome, Dylan, but it looks like you have sixty one cents. See, two quarters, one dime, and one penny makes sixty one cents.
Dylan: Wow, I have so so so so so so so much money.
Sarah: Yes you do. What are you going to buy?
Dylan: I am going to buy a dress for Mama.
Dylan: Wow, Mama, wook it! I found four pieces of money! I have four dollars!
Sarah: That's awesome, Dylan, but it looks like you have sixty one cents. See, two quarters, one dime, and one penny makes sixty one cents.
Dylan: Wow, I have so so so so so so so much money.
Sarah: Yes you do. What are you going to buy?
Dylan: I am going to buy a dress for Mama.

My favorite thing to do when my son was little, easily confused, and thought the number of coins was what mattered was ask him to trade:
"Here, I'll give you FOUR pennies for that ONE dollar."
Don't worry, he's gotten me back over the years...
I still do that to my husband...shhhh. I don't want him catching on...
