These can be used as play money or for a reward system. Kids can earn these dollars then be able to spend them on special rewards. Think of all the big things they can learn from these little dollars.

Step 1 of 27

If you haven't already...download the awesome fun app Pho.to Lab. Then open it, of course 😉 Oh and download Pic Jointer too if you don't already have that app as well 😁

Step 2 of 27

Scroll down, find and tap on Money templates.

Step 3 of 27

Choose which money template you would like to use (I used the US one hundred dollar bill).

Step 4 of 27

At this point you can take a photo by choosing camera, choose a photo already taken from your camera roll or choose a photo previously used from this app.

Step 5 of 27

Take or choose the picture you would like to have on your reward/play money.

Step 6 of 27

Crop your photo so just the head of your image fits in the selected area. Then press process.

Step 7 of 27

Wait patiently through the processing, processing, processing...downloading, downloading, downloading...and YES, finally your result!! Press the save button to save your lovely money 😉

Step 8 of 27

Open Pic Jointer 👆

Step 9 of 27

Select the collage frame under 3:4 that has three horizontal rectangle slots for your photo money.

Step 10 of 27

Add your photo money to each slot.

Step 11 of 27

Press the bottom right button that has the square and a diagonal line with arrows.

Step 12 of 27

Slide the bar all the way to the left so your dollars fill the whole page.

Step 13 of 27

Press the (x) to close this feature.

Step 14 of 27

Center each of your dollars with your finger to your liking.

Step 15 of 27

Press the top right button to save the dollar collage.

Step 16 of 27

Choose Save to Photo Album. After it has been saved press Done in the top left corner.

Step 17 of 27

Now press the bottom left button to choose a different frame.

Step 18 of 27

Under 3:4, now choose the frame with four photo slots.

Step 19 of 27

Replace with/add the three bill collage you just saved, to the slots.

Step 20 of 27

This time no adjustments need to be made because your previous adjustments are still in effect from the three bill collage you made. Your bills should be fully covering the whole page.

Step 21 of 27

You can now save your twelve bill collage again to your camera roll. I chose to save in high resolution this time for printing.

Step 22 of 27

Your finished image is ready to be printed 👍 Print an 8x10 right from your own computer or take it to a photo lab (I used Sam's Club 1 hour @ $1.46 per 8x10). Use next step for cropping information.

Step 23 of 27

When cropping to print, move the image so you have the full dollars showing at the bottom. The bills at the top will not be full (top will be cut off). You will get ten full bills per page.

Step 24 of 27

Cut out the bills. ✂

Step 25 of 27

Now you have some play money. The bills measure approximately 3.875 inches wide by 1.625 inches high.

Step 26 of 27

I actually made them for my son's reward system. He gets "Curran Cash" each day he fulfills his responsibilities and gets a sticker on his chart at school. Then he can spend them on special rewards.

Step 27 of 27

Thank you for checking out my very first guide. I hope you enjoyed it!! Have a wonderful day!! 😁

I'm sorry Jo, I'm not sure why it won't download for you. I've encountered an experience like that only one time with a different app. A bubble popped up and said unavailable for download at this time or something like that. Is that what is happening for you?

Thanks Nicole! Great question! In the beginning I had a treasure box that I filled with items from the Dollar Tree, 99 Cent Store and Target's dollar section. It was very effective to have the daily incentive to pick from the treasure box when he fulfilled all of his responsibilities(books, coloring books, puzzles, activity books, stickers, etc). Now that my son is getting older, the curran cash is worth one dollar. So he saves it in his little treasure box until he sees something he wants or saves up his curran cash until he reaches his goal for something he specifically wants and works toward. If you prefer not to have it as real money value and are looking for more non-monetary rewards, I have also made my own coupons in the past which included things like; choosing dessert for the night, 30 minutes of mommy and/or daddy time(to do whatever activity they choose), movie night(in home), movie day(out), video game time, extra TV time, stay up 30 minutes later past bedtime, etc. I hope that helps!
