Set up a store with your child, and tape prices onto the items in your store. Take turns with your child playing the customer and the cashier, and use pretend paper money. If your child is old enough to play with money safely, then use bills and coins and make change. An old silverware tray makes for a great cash box.

This is excellent for reinforcing math skills.
