Helping Kids Manage Money

This is not a Network Marketing opportunity, but I believe managing money is an important part of business.

The Crier:

In an effort to teach children how to manage their own money, two Atlanta moms have developed a unique product that is both educational and fun for kids. The colorful, creative and kid-friendly Learning-Cents Bank is designed to empower children to make good choices when it comes to spending, saving and giving money.

LearningCents is a new company dedicated to helping families teach children how to successfully manage money. Caryn Boxer, Ph.D., a licensed clinical psychologist, and Gail Duner, a Harvard MBA, the founders of LearningCents, both have elementary school-aged kids. “As our own children’s appetite for things increased, we realized we needed to share our money values with them,� said Duner. “We began to discuss allowance, spending, bank accounts and charitable giving. While researching these topics and looking for guidance, we found lots of articles on the internet, lots of books and financial experts espousing the need to raise financially fit kids, but we couldn’t find a good tool to help us put these philosophies into practice.�
