App to track pocket money/spending but not linked to a bank

My daughter is 6 and I want to start teaching her about earning/spending money over the summer.

im trying to find a tracking app which is not linked to any bank account but to which we can track theoretical money in and money out. Eg. She cleans her room I add £1 to her theoretical account, she nags me at the supermarket for a magazine I pay for it and we then take off £7(!).

Does anyone know of any apps that would fit the bill?

A go Henry card? You pay a couple of quid per month for the card and app on your phone. You only have to have it linked to a debit card (adult) so you can top up her money but she doesn't have to have a bank account to use it. Helps her to be independent using a card and you can set up savings goals for her to work towards. Card is cute too, with her name on and choice of design.

I don’t want a card at this point, I just want a visual representation of money going in an out so when we are out and about over the holidays I can show her the app and she talk about how much things cost and whether she wants to use her money to buy things. Outside of the school holidays we will rarely use it.
