Following the successful initiative of Ed and Bunny Go Shopping, Money Heroes is extending its partnership with leading educational games manufacturer Orchard Toys.
The two brands have committed to producing an additional run of the game that helps teach children about money. The jointly created board game – which is available free of charge to educational settings – brings learning to life, as children join Ed and Bunny on an adventure all about money.
Aimed at the upper end of the preschool market (4+), Ed and Bunny Go Shopping sees the two characters pay Mrs Mole for items on their shopping list. As children learn to recognise, understand and choose the correct value of coins, it provides support and learning on how to handle money in everyday life situations.
Money Heroes is a free programme from Young Enterprise. The company’s coo, Russell Winnard, commented: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with Orchard Toys. The Ed and Bunny series has been a hit with teachers and parents and we’re really excited to continue working with Orchard Toys to help young people become financially capable.”
Simon Prest, sales director at Orchard Toys, added: “Following a fantastic response to the initial production run in 2021 we’re delighted to be continuing and extending our partnership with Money Heroes, who offer such valuable support and resources in helping to deliver financial education to children.”
