Hi, Really good blog on teaching kids about money, good on you!!.

We have a book and ebook you may be interested in looking at on our website.(Parents How to stop your kids from going broke) We are in New Zealand and trying to get families talking about money and raising the level of financial literacy in all children.
Keep up the good work – John

Sadly I know I wasn’t the cousin she wanted to give the money to. She knows me as “Aunt” and I love it. Very proud of you. Your girls will be much better off for your efforts and won’t go through a lot of what some of us have in our struggles.

Awesome job as usual Rachel! I love that you put the ideas out there in the simplest terms. (Of course I also love the use of the Sweet Leaf Tea bottles-thanks for that!!)

Man, my mom tried to NOT teach me that if you didn’t have $, just go to the MPACT machine (yes, I’m old..) and itd’ be there. Turns out there ISN’T $ in the ATM if you don’t have any in your account.
My father, bless his no-longer-beating-heart, spent $ like it was going out of style and I am sure we would have lost our house if it hadn’t been for my mom always being the “bad-guy” aka the parent with reasoning. I can look back and see that I am my father’s daughter and hope that I can figure out a way to grasp these life-lessons before they suck me down the tubes. In-debt? For sure, but it’s getting better….
