Great post thanks! We have piggy banks that we have given to each of our kids and they love the idea of saving up and then buying something special after a few months of saving. We also have a goal chart which the kids write down their goal – what they would like to buy or a place they would like to visit – and then they save until they have enough money to buy this item or to go visit.

A great way to teach kids about money is by letting them to understand and get them involved in planning and using the household budget.

Great web page, I recently came across it and I am already a fan. I recently reduced my weight thirty pounds in thirty days, and I want to share my weight loss success with as many people as possible. If I can lose the weight then any one can. Whatever you do, never give up and you WILL achieve all your weight loss targets!

Couldn’t agree more, these are great suggestions. As a single parent that was *less* than good with money throughout my youth, teaching children about money is CRUCIAL, in my mind. I’m not going to blame parents, schools, etc, but quite simply, I clearly “didn’t get it”, and I am still paying for those mistakes a decade later! And quite frankly, I hate the position I got myself in, everytime I pay off my past debts… I could have used my time/money sooooo much better.

A program was suggested to me by a friend, that teaches kids to be responsible with money, and puts them in control of their money. It’s a fun, interactive booklet + personal website that makes tracking their money fun – more importantly, the tugs on the pantleg going through the grocery checkout and the tantrums have all but disappeared! I guess that’s a little self centered of me… but any parent knows those situations all to well. For the record, I too used to do this to my parents, I was apparently horrible to bring into a store… oops!
