Finance 101 for Kids: Money Lessons Children Cannot Afford to Miss Paperback – April 12, 2016

Finance 101 for Kids is a fantastic resource for teaching children the basics of money management in a fun and approachable way. The book breaks down complex financial concepts into simple, age-appropriate lessons that are easy for kids to understand and apply in real life. From budgeting and saving to understanding credit and investments, it provides a solid foundation for financial literacy that will serve kids well into adulthood.What I love most is how engaging the material is. The use of relatable examples, clear explanations, and practical tips makes it enjoyable for both kids and parents. It's also a great tool for starting family discussions about money and setting financial goals together.If you're looking to give your child a head start on understanding the value of money and making smart financial decisions, this book is a must-have. Highly recommended for families, schools, and anyone passionate about setting the next generation up for success!

High time these youngins started learning the value of money!! Great beginner book and kids love it. Will be buying more copies for my friend’s kids in the future! Don’t think about it, just buy this!!!

This is now becoming gospel in my family. In the past, trying to get my kids to understand the value of money and urging them to develop the proper habits was incredibly frustrating. I did not know how to present these concepts in a simple, relatable way and my kids just zoned out most of the time. After reading this book and seeing how the author laid out the information in such an intuitive way, I made it a goal to read through it with my kids each night. I was surprised at how they were genuinely engaged and asked really great questions! This simple yet thoughtful book has really captured my kids' attention and as a family, we now have a set of guidelines that we apply to our everyday lives.I'm a little ashamed to admit, but adults can benefit from this book too. If your upbringing was anything like mine where mom and dad generally did not teach you anything about how to handle money other than to tell you to save, this book is for you! Spare your kids a future of financial ignorance and let them see money for what it is so they can make it work for them instead of the other way around!

First, the book probably should be updated, revised to bring it up to date as far as interest rates charged by lenders or interest rates earned by depositors, and so forth. Still, this does not take away from the book; it is a good book to read though I'd combine it with the author's "Finance 102 for Kids" and with "INVESTING for kids" (by Dylin Redling).The example dealing with interest earned on pages 20 and 21 could be made clearer by stating that the interest earned is SIMPLE INTEREST! The example does not take into account compound interest ("interest on interest") and this may confuse some readers. Still, not a huge issue; example should simply state that it is "simple interest"!The book makes comment that the "payee" (recipient) of a bounced check is liable for a penalty along with the "maker" of the check! This is great information; I was totally unaware of this; many thanks to the author for including this in the book. Also, a technically more appropriate term for what one achieves in bankruptcy is that the debts are DISCHARGED.The "Stock Market" section of the book, pages 71-74 should make it clear that the "shares" in "Cupcake Avenue" acquired by the two "investors" ("Ben" and "Olivia"!) are really a partnership interest rather than ownership of "stock" ("stock" in the context of shares in a publicly traded company!).I would buy this book along with "Finance 102 for Kids" and with "INVESTING for kids" by Dylin Redling

Great introduction and good way to learn different finance terms. Easy to understand.

I’m learning something from this book and I’m 40+

To help better teach my kids money, I bought this book for them to read to help me out. This book coupled with me teaching money management etc has been a life saver.

This book is very easy to read and understand.
