I have been trying to teach Olivia the value of money. There is never too early to start teaching children to be responsible with money. She does not know anything much yet but what she does know is that you can use money to pay for things. Sometimes when I buy things I let her hand the money to the cashier. She also knows that her daddy has to work to earn money.
I was so thrilled when I was given the chance to try out the Money Savvy Pig. It is a fun way of teaching kids the value and the important of saving money. It has four chambers, SAVE, SPEND, DONATE, and INVEST. Kids will have control with their money and eventually develop good money management habits. It also comes with goal stickers, which really made it even more easier to explain to Olivia her purpose for Saving, Spending, and Donating. However I still don't know how to explain to her the INVEST part since she is only 2.5 years old. I guess that part has to wait.
More things to luv about the Money Savvy Pig
- The size is perfect. It is not too big or too small. Olivia is able to hold and carry it around.
- It's translucent. She can see how much she is putting in each slot.
- They comes in six different colors. Olivia loves her pink pig.
- Each chambers exits through a different foot. If she wants to take money from SPENDING slot, she can easily take it out.
- It is made of plastic. I don't have to worry it will break if Olivia drops it on the floor.
- Affordable ($16.99)
Money Savvy Generation also has Money Savvy Cow, Money Savvy Football and other great educational products. They are perfect for any gift giving!
Just in case you would like to know Olivia's goal
Saving: Toy
Spend: Food
