Description
Does your child understand how money works? Maybe not yet—but Follow the Money will give them the tools they need to manage their money now and down the line. They’ll learn important financial skills, complete activities that reinforce these skills, and make informed choices that either add to or subtract from their Treasure Chest of (pretend) money in this fun, interactive game. Designed to help parents who don’t feel comfortable teaching finances to their child, this accessible book features:
- Easy-to-understand money lessons for kids with real-life examples: They’ll learn how to budget, save for a special event or item, calculate a tip, avoid scams, and more.
- Fun activities that reinforce each lesson: They’ll plan a party with a budget, choose school supplies (basic or personalized?), pay for a video game, differentiate between assets and debts, buy and sell stocks, and so on.
- A unique game: Readers add or subtract money from their Treasure Chest as they move through book, depending on the choices they make in the activities. How much money will they have at the end?
- Kids taking charge: They decide which job to take, where to spend their money, how to invest their earnings, and more.
- A handy glossary: Here are important financial concepts kids need to know—and an answer key that explains the age-appropriate math needed to make the financial decisions in the activities.
Written by a certified teacher, financial writer, and founder of Let’s Make It Grow, a project focused on helping parents raise financially confident kids, Follow the Money is essential reading for kids who need to learn money basics.
