Last year I gave my granddaughter the three Whitman Jefferson nickel folders and 15 rolls of nickels for her birthday. She calls them her coin books. On Saturday we went through the last roll of nickels but she wanted more, so I pulled out my smallish container of loose change. When she noticed the other coins she wanted to search those also. She also wanted to put them into heir own books. I didn't have an empty folder on hand to start this so she told me she now wants "books for every coin".




YES! She is now officially fully infected with the coin bug!
BTW, she is 7 years old now.

the time spent with her working on sets, or even just the loose change, will be the best return on investment anyone could see in this hobby.

In a year or two she'll be posting on CCF.

Just make sure she gives a proper introduction so we can start a CCF genealogy thread!

Great story!

No empty folders on hand? What are you going to do when the power grid goes down? (Congratulations.)
