Piggy Banks Teach Kids about Saving Money

A reporter asks us… “Other than a savings account, how can you teach children about saving money?”

Managing money can actually be fun, if you’re five years old and it’s your own piggy bank.

To help teach children about saving money, one of the very earliest, easiest, and probably most important things a parent can do is to provide an opportunity for the child to start saving money right in their own room, with their own piggy bank.

A child’s piggy bank provides a real world example that families can talk about and reference, when a parent decides it’s time to introduce and discuss more advanced savings or financial concepts. Parents might explain ‘…its like your piggy bank, remember how you have been saving your money in your room…?’
