Expression for "dividing something with others"?

Question

In a play, a girl finds some stolen treasure and divides it among her friends. I ask for an expression which is used to describe this heroine that wants to share with her friends.

Within the dialog she says, "Go halves!" But we feel we need a more common colloquial expression or word. The girl is supposed to be young so an expression which kids use would be preferred. However, the roles are played by adults and the scene symbolizes much more, so a "kid expression" is not totally necessary.

Right now, I can only think of "chop the pot," but that expression is inappropriate. It isn't exactly an expression for teenage girls. Others I know are: "split the pot," "split it up," "Divvy!", "chop the pot," "Divvy up!" and "Sharing is caring!"

What is an expression or word to "distribute something equally"?

Answer 1

I think something colloquial, informal, and young would be to say let's go halfsies.

From dictionary.com, halfsies is informal for go halves:

--> to share equally; divide evenly.

I think given the informality of it, and with a child saying it, it works regardless of the fact that something is split between more than two people.

I know I myself (not a child, in my 20's) have said something like 'let's all just go halfsies' when talking about splitting a check or dividing a pizza amongst more than 2 friends.

Answer 2

You could try even steven[s]. Although it may be old fashioned, the use of rhyme sounds like something a child may say.

even stevens

^{(British informal) also even steven (American & Australian informal)}
if two or more people are even stevens, they have the same amount of something or are at the same level
Give me £20 and we're even stevens - I'm not worried about a few pence.

There is a longer expression, share and share alike, which has a meaning that is more literally what you specified, but I personally like even steven better:

share and share alike

Mete out or partake of something equally, as in
Mom told the children to share and share alike with their Halloween candy.
