Plant Orange provides a game format for students to go through a series of missions to gain money by investing or spend money they gain to match their budgets and reach their goals. The website is free but requires that kids enter a parent's email address so to use it in a classroom, the teacher would have to contact parents.
There is also an interesting, informative infographic on The Lifespan of a Dollar Bill provided by CreditLoan.com. It shows flow charts of the production, distribution, and eventual removal from circulation of currency as well as statistics about the quantity of dollar bills produced every year.
Another fascinating money site from PageTutor graphically answers the question--What Does One Trillion Dollars Look Like?
