Shop Street: run a bazaar stall and master money maths

Shop Street lets children run their own stall in a busy dusk bazaar. Each day they serve 8 customers, adding up baskets, handing back the right change in rupees and working out discounts. It turns everyday money maths into something a child actually wants to do.

How to play

  1. Open your stall. The game lasts 30 days, each with 8 customers.
  2. Read what the customer wants and work out the answer. Early days ask you to total the basket.
  3. From day 9 you also give change by tapping coins and notes to count it out. Later days bring multi-buys, price comparisons and, from day 25, percentage discounts.
  4. Quick and correct answers earn more coins. The Big Spender customer who visits each day is worth double points.
  5. Earn up to 3 stars a day. One star opens the next day, and your coins buy stall decorations.

Why it works

Money is the first place most children see why maths matters. Shop Street keeps the numbers realistic, with everyday items priced in rupees, and the difficulty climbs in four stages from simple totals to percentage discounts. Because the player is the shopkeeper, mistakes feel like part of the game and the next customer is a fresh chance.
