Why Kids Should Learn About Money Before They’re 10

 By age seven, most children already have a sense of how money works and how it makes them feel. That’s why early money lessons are so powerful.

At Little Finance Builders, we help parents raise Money Wise Kids who see money as a tool, not a stress. You don’t need to teach complex finance, just start with the basics: where money comes from, what it’s used for, and how choices matter.

Kids who learn early develop stronger habits later. They understand saving, goal-setting, and delayed gratification. It’s not about raising little accountants. It’s about raising confident, capable decision-makers.

In The Parent’s Playbook, you’ll find step-by-step guides for every stage, from preschoolers learning about coins to tweens managing savings goals. The sooner you start, the easier it becomes, and the more natural money conversations feel.

Small lessons today. Lifelong confidence tomorrow.
