What kids learn

Children Use Money Before Most of Them Understand It

This class helps children develop a practical foundation before they begin managing larger financial decisions.

  • Saving

    Set a goal, track it, and watch it grow.

  • Spending

    Compare choices and see what a purchase really costs.

  • Budgeting

    Split money between spending, saving, sharing and a buffer.

  • Banking

    How accounts, deposits and withdrawals actually work.

  • Earning

    Where money comes from, and what is not income.

  • Borrowing

    Why borrowed money has to be paid back.

  • Credit

    The basics of borrowing responsibly, at an age-appropriate level.

  • Responsibility

    Money is a tool, never a measure of a person's worth.
