That’s a wonderful idea, thanks for sharing it. I totally agree that children should be taught financial literacy at school and at home, using different methods depending on their age. It’s true that parents are primarily responsible for their kids’ financial education, that’s why I try to do my best to set a good example for my children: I want them to understand the value of money, learn how to spend them wisely and be prepared for all the financial hardships that may lie ahead.

Great post. Teaching kids about money is not always easy, but kids love to play games so this should make it somewhat easier. Thanks for sharing it.

A good and creative way to realize your children the essence of money management.
The children will definitely love this.

My oldest child was in 2nd grade when I created this game. She is now 21! I used to go to the elementary schools and play MWK with groups of kids. I got the same reaction that you did- they would light up when they were able to trade up for that $100. Thanks for such a nice review!

That’s wonderful! I have been looking for something to help my nephews learn about spending, etc… and this will come in really handy for my own son.
