To encourage your youngster's interest in the new state coins, help him/her put together a small 5x7 album containing the coins. This is a great idea for Show & Tell at their school.
You can gather information about the states over the internet or in an encyclopedia. Place the coin in a corner of the album page, and surround it with relevant information about each state, as shown below.

In order to make the album lie flat, I alternated the coins in different corners on the page (upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right) |
