How to Spend Our Pocket Money* {=Allowance (more commonly used in the US)}

Nowadays {=These days}**, many children have receive {=get} their pocket money from their parents, and me I do too. I can get 10 ten yuan from my mother every each month. Sometimes, I use my pocket money to buy some snacks, but I never buy many. I also use my pocket money to buy some books, because I love reading.

But nowadays, some children don't use {or spend} their pocket money well. I think we can should send it to the people in need, or buy some pens.

*"Pocket money" is understandable, but to be honest, it's something that immigrants/non-native speakers tend to say. Generally, we just say "allowance" in the US.

**"Nowadays" is okay, but tends to be overused, so I think "These days" is better.
