Five friendly characters with which to interact!All aspects of Money Up have been designed to make it as accessible as possible and initial feedback from parents, teachers and therapists has been extremely positive:"The lesson content is the important thing. It really has been useful for us. One student on the money program went from getting nowhere to almost mastering it in a fortnight, and when I asked her, she had been playing it in her free time.""My student...loved the game and the multi-currency aspect will be very useful in the future, as his father [wants him to] learn to recognise Euro and American currency as well as Australian.""My [autistic] 16 year old just learned the method in 2 goes. I'm showing his teacher next week!!""Smooth design, no glitching, no need for a manual as I was able to get it started and working with the kids in minutes."
