Gone are the days of kids asking their parent to borrow cash or their card when going out with friends. Instead, parents can now give their kids access to Google Wallet for making in-store payments with their Android device.

The new feature, described in a blog post, lets you add gift or debit cards, event tickets and passes like library cards to a Google child account. Five countries have access at launch, and conveniently the U.S., U.K. and Australia are all on the list.
