Never Too Young To Save



Handsome's stash that he allows us to see. The rest is saved in a special place


My kids love saving their money. They have been getting $1.00 a week from their grandpa since they were born. He sends them a dollar each with my lovingly cut coupons and they love getting them. They take turns opening the envelope knowing that there will be dollars in there with their names on them love, grandpa.  They save their money. I was also a good saver never spending my money gifts from family.  As much as they save, we haven't really gone beyond the few piggy banks they have but I think it is time they learn a better budgeting plan. Hopefully this will help them later in life never be in debt.

  1. It is so important to teach them the value of money. We have my grandson a couple of his own banks and one will help him calculate his money put in and he too, loves saving his money

  3. I love how my daughter wants to hold on to her money when it is HER money that we are spending, but she will readily spend MY money without hesitating! lol

  4. I was taught really young to save and be responsible with the money I earned. I think that really helped me. Now, as an adult, I know what steps to take to save and be careful spending. Thanks for the tips. They are great!
