Helping your kids learn about money is a gift that grows with them. Start early, build gradually and focus on simple concepts at each stage.
These age-appropriate skills can help them develop discipline and healthier money habits as they grow. ➡️ https://bit.ly/4axUyhk
As a parent, you already know the values you want to instill in your kids. But figuring out how to teach them isn’t always easy, especially when it comes to money.
The good news? Raising money-smart kids doesn’t require a lesson plan—just simple, everyday moments. Small habits practiced together can build financial discipline that grows with them. 🙌
These five are a great place to start. ⬆️
Looking for a kid-friendly way to teach financial literacy? Try the Spend, Save, Give method. It allows them to:
⭐ Spend on things they want
⭐ Save for something big
⭐ Give to make a difference
Kids learn best by doing. This simple approach turns money lessons into real-life choices—helping instill discipline and prioritization. And if generosity is part of your family values, it’s a great way to pass that on early.
Little eyes are always watching—especially when it comes to money. The way we manage and talk about money shapes our kids long before they earn their first dollar.
Try modeling these simple habits to help them build a healthy relationship with money:
⭐ Avoid speaking about money with stress or shame
⭐ Narrate your choices (“We’re saving for X, so we’re skipping Y today”)
⭐ Keep a visible savings routine
⭐ Use positive language around budgeting and planning
