An easy way to create an activity to help with counting and money is to use the Clone feature.
Open the file that you want to use for your Activity.
Select the object you want to make copies of - in my example it is the coins.
I recommend turning off the Scaling handles so the objects can't be resized.
Go to the Edit menu, choose Properties and uncheck Scale.
Now, go to the Edit menu, select Properties and choose Clone.
Repeat this process for all of the objects you want to clone.
Now when the student clicks the object, they will see a message indicating the object is set to clone in the Options panel on the right.
Now the students can use as many coins as they need to complete the activity.
If you are in Wixie, you can follow the steps here to create and assign your Activity.
