Home-School Your Children in Financial Basics
Parents are rejoicing, and kids may be wincing, because the beginning of a new school year is drawing near. Don’t rely on your child’s school to provide his or her entire financial education; discuss money management basics as he or she grows up with age-appropriate lessons from SAM.
Make learning fun. Sort like coins, play a game of store, and use an allowance to teach young children about spending and saving. More tips for 2- to 7-year-olds>>
Use real-world examples. Discuss your family’s household expenses, share past spending mistakes, and help your child open his or her own bank account. More tips for 8- to 18-year-olds>>
Create a budget with your college student. List living and education expenses, and decide what each of you is responsible for paying. More tips for adult children>>
Q: Does it make sense not to pay allowance? After all, shouldn't the kids work to keep the house running smooth? — Oscar
A: Of course you give them allowance—if they earn it. How are your children going to survive in the real world if they grow up in make-believe land? They should know that their efforts will determine their wealth—and a little bit of luck. — Daddy_Warbucks
