Board games like Monopoly or the Game of Life encourage kids to strategize—teaching them the importance of budgeting, saving, and planning for the future, all while masquerading as fun games. #CUYouthMonth
Use a clear jar for savings instead of a piggy bank. Tell your children, “Once the money reaches the top, you can use that money to buy something.” They will be able to monitor their progress, experience delayed gratification, and learn the importance of saving. #CUYouthMonth
Children are more motivated to save their money if they have a specific goal in mind. Help them set their sights on something to save up for, remind them of their goal when they get an inclination to spend, and watch as they experience the thrill accomplishment! #CUYouthMonth
