Thrive
by Five: Teaching Your Preschooler About Spending and Saving
Children learn about money from many sources. Long before they enter school, they
observe adults using money and buying things. They watch television daily and
see thousands of commercials each year. Like it or not, money is a part of a preschooler's
life.
What children witness affects their attitudes about what money is for. Some
of these beliefs will help them as adult consumers and some will not. For example,
they might get the message that saving is important or they might not.
As a parent, you will not be the only influence on what your child learns
about using money. But when you teach basic lessons about money, you increase
the chance that your child's values will be similar to yours.
