My GD, who is 3 wanted a cash register so I of course get right on Amazon and order one. Maybe I should have waited. She wrinkled up the paper money, put it back in the drawer and jammed it after about only 30 mins. of play. I think it might be more appropriate for an older child maybe 5-6..or maybe mine just isn't ready yet. I don't know. All it is a nice set and has the bells and whistles enough to be like a real one.
