On teaching our Wonders about money….

Have you heard of the Greenlight debit card for kiddos???

It’s a card that you can control from your own phone including setting limits on where your child can spend amounts and how they can earn $ for certain chores. It teaches them about saving for bigger items and tracking their spending when on a card of any sort. Since we don’t do a regular allowance and offer money chores (but never have cash to actually give them) this is a great solution to keep track of their earnings/spending and keep their motivation high to earn and save!!!

Both Scott and I can add money at any time and if our Wonders are out and about or with friends that can request money if needed from an ATM or other source. WonderGIRL saved and bought a beautiful puzzle at a toy store we love in Friday Harbor. I could tell she loved the independence of handing over a card and signing for it herself. That adulting life is so fun right?!?!
