Every so often we give our 3 year old daughter some change (sometimes she steals it from my dresser, but that's another story) and she puts it in her piggy-bank. The other day I decided to see how much she had accumulated and saw that she had enough for a little toy. So I asked her if she wanted to buy a little toy now, or keep saving and buy a bigger toy later. She had no hesitation in replying she'd keep saving for the bigger toy later.
