Money Savvy Kids
Came across this article about raising kids to be money smart. So I'm passing it along.
We are just beginning to do this too! I was going to get one of those divided piggy banks but we decided to make our own instead! We have made charts with chores and expectations and they get 5 cents for every token. We have designated who to give money to, so we also encourage a giving heart. (it works that it is a little girl waiting to be adopted, so we have a jar with her picture on it, and we can pray for her as well as she waits for her family to come get her)
