My son got this wallet for his 4th birthday, and he LOVES it. There is a zippered coin pocket, which my son puts to good use - he stores all his loose change in there, and he takes it all out every so often to play "store" with his money.

I consider it "normal sized" in that it is big enough, when opened up, to hold paper money without having to fold up the bills. It is about the size of my husband's wallet, which means, of course, that it is too big to fit into my son's kid-sized pants pockets. But that's okay. It is just the right size for his little boy hands to handle, and he has no reason to actually carry it around anyway. Even if he wanted to bring it somewhere, I would just throw it into his backpack. He is happy keeping his wallet in his "special" drawer of favorite things.

This is a tri-fold wallet with a velcro closure. I like it because it is sturdy, cute, and practical. Besides having dedicated sections for paper money and coins, there are also several slots that could be used for cards - a library card, or pretend credit cards.
