- The child has learned the concept of counting money
- The child has learned to identify different coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters)
- The child has learned the value of each coin (1 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents, and 25 cents)

Continued development related to this activity can include:
- Introducing more complex examples where the child needs to count larger amounts of money
- Encouraging the child to practice making different amounts using different combinations of coins
- Playing games or using manipulatives to reinforce the concept of counting money
- Teaching the child about making change and the concept of exchanging different denominations
