Teaching kids about money
Introducing the concept of money to children can be both educational and fun, setting the stage for a lifetime of financial literacy. By getting your kids saving early while involving them in their earning and spending, you can help them develop positive money habits and set them up for success.
A great first step is including your child in the process of opening a kids’ savings account and explaining how money can grow over time through saving and earning interest. This hands-on experience will demystify the world of finance and empower them to take charge of their own financial future.
After opening your child’s savings account, teach them how to stay safe online as most transactions today are digital. Make the most of options available, like Spriggy, to educate kids about the basics while you still have complete control.
