When is the appropriate time to begin introducing and teaching money skills? It might be sooner than you realize. Preschool is the perfect age to begin teaching early money skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Your Preschooler Should Know<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The President\u2019s Advisory Council on Financial Capability says by age five your preschooler should know the following four things to be on track to living a \u201cfinancially smart\u201d life: 1. You need money to buy things. 2. You earn money by working. 3. You may have to wait before you can buy something you want. 4. There&#8217;s a difference between things you want and things you need. If learning early money skills is this important, how do we go about teaching our preschooler?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many toys on the market today that are specific to learning about money. Preschoolers enjoy and learn through role play. A toy checkbook, cash \u2018n carry wallet, and cash register are all fantastic options for role play. Many cash registers now also include a way to pay with a card\u2013be it credit or debit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use Books<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Books are also a useful tool.\u00a0 The Cat in the Hat teaches about the history of money in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One Cent, Two Cents, Old Cents, New Cents: All About Money<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Papa Bear works on teaching Brother and Sister Bear how to budget their money in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Berenstain Bears&#8217; Dollars and Sense<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Chair for My Mother<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is about Rosa and her family losing their home in a fire. It focuses on saving for an important purchase. For a book about entrepreneurship follow Pauline and John-John in Lemonade in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Winter: A Book About Two Kids Counting Money<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Intentional Skill Building<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partaking in intentional activities can also teach money skills. Play games that help in identifying different coins. You can also have your preschooler help write a simple shopping list. Regardless of the method, allow your preschooler to pay. Provide your preschooler with an allowance or a way to earn money and help him save, spend, and give.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even someone as young as a preschooler is able to learn money skills. Teaching preschoolers early money skills can help prepare them for a financially smart life. Using fun ways to engage your preschooler in learning money skills is an investment in their future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you enjoyed this blog, please take a look at our school\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsrkids.com\/missouri-city\/blog\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">blog page<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
