The Kids' Money Course 101 is all about money basics.
We take the children on a journey to Money Island where the end goal is to open the treasure chest. There is focus time at the beginning of each lesson to hold on to the children's attention and progresses to a fun challenge or two at the end.
Everything your child needs to know about money at this age is in this course from seeing the actual currency, to understanding the real value of money.
In the course, we cover the who, what, why, where, when and how's of money, along with real life skills like decision making and the best way to ask for something.
You will watch your child's self-confidence blossom like a flower, while you set them up for success financially and in all areas of their lives.
What people are saying about this course:
We have heard countless times from parents - "We wish this course was around when we were kids!"
"Mom, I saved 20%" from a little girl who did extra chores around the house to earn some money to buy her very own reading tablet! Get this...not only did she find it on sale, she also invested in a screen protector!
How much money would you like to keep in your pockets?

Hi, I’m Emma Carson!
As a former Senior Financial Advisor for a top bank in Canada, I had many clients asking me to help teach their children about money.
At the same time, I saw so many of the bank's clients refinancing their homes time and time again.
I wondered what I could do to make it a little better. Then I realized, no one really taught me about money until I started educating myself on the subject.
Not just what money is, but the real value of it!
I created this course with that in mind.
The kids will watch the videos with you and on top of learning money basics, they will be taught valuable life skills that can be applied in any area of their lives like goal planning and taking care of their belongings.
Don't be surprised if after taking this course, the kids clean their rooms more and do a much better job at it!
