My dad has his birthday today and a friend bought a trillion dollar Zambian note and framed it for him - it's quite a weird thing to look at! I think you can buy them online at the moment, he's convinced they'll be a collectors item one day. The only hard thing is that the reason it exists is that things are so bad over in Zambia, we've suggested that he donates to a charity helping over there in return for this. It might be fun if you could get hold of one, especially for home schooling. A good lesson in geography, economics, dictatorship,charity- the list goes on! Sorry if this sounds a bit know-it-all, but thought you might like the idea. MH
