Kelly, even before I had kids I had the thought that educating them about money was one of the most important lessons I would need to teach them. Of course, there has never been a better time to teach our kids how to respect and handle money, and I found a great piggy bank from Money Savvy Generation to help me out.
This seems like the right moment for my kids to begin learning about money. The twins will be 6 in January, the mama needs Christmas gift ideas, and I'll pay them very well if they start cleaning the house for me! Six is old enough to Swiffer, right? The house needs painting...
I have always liked the idea that kids should split up their allowance money among saving, donating and spending, but the idea of having separate jars for all of these things seemed unworkable to me. But, this little piggy I love. There is even an investing slot.
These piggy banks are designed for kids from 4 - 10, but Money Savvy Generation has products for the older kids as well, plus lots of resources, handbooks and sticker charts to help teach kids about money.
Know what I want my piggy bank to say? Nordstrom, Sephora, Shopbop, and Starbucks. What would your piggy bank say?
