Youth and Money
It’s never too early to teach kids about money. Unfortunately, most kids aren’t learning about money at school, which means it’s up to parents to talk to their kids about credit, budgeting, and other aspects of financial literacy. And the sooner parents begin talking with their children about money, the more likely their kids are to develop smart money management habits.
Our Youth and Money financial education section provides parents with children as young as five with resources to teach smart money skills. In this section, you’ll find an overview of how to talk to kids about money and lots of materials that make learning about money fun.
