    Start Early to Learn About Money

    This fact sheet has ideas and resources that you can use to help children learn good money habits appropriate for their age to help them become smart money managers.

    Financial Security: Children & Money

    Children are not born with “money sense.” Children learn about money by example and experience, beginning at a very young age. Parents are an important influence on what and how children learn about money. It is never to early to start teaching sound money management skills. Begin teaching basic principles of money as soon as children can understand that money is needed to buy the things they enjoy.

    Money Confident Kids

    Play games and enjoy fun activities while learning about key financial concepts that can help you meet your goals. Everyone dreams of things they want to have, things they want to do, and places they want to go. See how you can achieve your financial goals.

    Money as You Grow

    Money as You Grow was recommended as an initiative from the President’s Advisory Council on Financial Capability, chaired by John W. Rogers and vice-chaired by Amy Rosen.

    The initiative, spearheaded by Beth Kobliner, chair of the Council’s Money as You Grow working group, offers 20 essential, age-appropriate financial lessons—with corresponding activities—that kids need to know as they grow. Written in down-to-earth language for children and their families, Money as You Grow will help equip kids with the knowledge they need to live fiscally fit lives. The lessons in Money as You Grow are based on more than a year of research, and drawn from dozens of standards, curricula, and academic studies.

    Fun to Save

    Fun to Save is a safe place where children can have lots of fun while they learn about different aspects of money and ways to save.

    Money saving games for children encourages them to earn points, save up these points, and then use them to ‘get stuff’, such as colouring in sheets, stickers for an online sticker album, accessories for their chosen character and desktop wallpaper.
