I grew up with many brothers, step brothers, step sisters, and cousins. So if anyone wanted some extra money, they had to work for it. We would offer to do things like clean the roof after a nasty storm, destroy an ant pile, mow the yard, and clean the house. I was the creative child so I would make childish artwork and comics to sell at the street corner or host a “carnival” where the neighborhood kids had to pay quarters to do the opstical courses I set up, LOL! Ohhh, childhood.

I have my daughter save. And when she sees things she likes I explain what she has and what she can get if she was to buy it.

When my son gets money for helping me and/or our neighbors, he has to split it four ways–save, spend, household expenses(such as phone, food, etc.) and donations/investing. If he has items that people are collecting for charity, like clothing, toys, etc., he can use the money for investments. This bank would be perfect for him. Thank you for the contest!

I teach my kids by example. They know that we watch for sales every week and that if they want something specific, we wait for it to go on sale.

we try to instill in our kids the importance of giving to God first (tithing), giving to self second (bills and investing), giving to other’s third (donating).

We never had a lot of money when I was growing up, so we saw the day to day struggles of balancing a budget, and saving for vacations. Shopping sales and using coupons was something that was always done.

Thanks for the giveaway!

My Dad taught us to save and pay cash for what we wanted even if we had to wait awhile.
