Parents want the best for their kids. But this doesn’t always mean the little ones get top-quality clothes, the latest toys, or the coolest gadgets. Most likely, it means they want their sprouts to be safe and secure and to have a solid foundation for the days to come. This includes handling money.
“Without a working knowledge of money, it is extraordinarily difficult to do well in life,” Sam X Renick, the co-creator of Sammy Rabbit, a children’s character and financial literacy initiative, told Forbes. “Money is central to transacting life, day-in and day-out. Where we live, what we eat, the clothes we wear, the car we drive, health care, education, child-rearing, gift-giving, vacations, entertainment, heat, air-conditioning, insurance—you name it, money is involved.”
Recently, a mom from Florida has gone viral after she posted a TikTok, with a “parenting hack” that has been “extremely successful” in teaching her 7-year-old this lesson.
