Children need to learn about money. They must know how to live on, not beyond, the money available to them. Here's a unique approach to the problem that gives practical and easy-to-follow directions for teaching a child the ten basic rules for building financial independence. Based on a one-on-one approach for use by a caring adult (parent, grandparent, other relative, or friend), the book emphasizes field trips together and hands-on experience. A complete children's workbook is included. If you believe money management is one of the greatest skills you can teach a child, this book is for you...and the child you love.

From the Publisher:

Through her practice as a certified financial planner, Peggy Houser has seen crises and problems arise when basic financial skills are lacking. As an expert on women's and children's issues, she determined that her grandchildren would learn the ten basic financial rules early in life. This decision led to How to Teach Children About Money. Houser is a frequent lecturer and seminar leader on financial planning for women. Hassell Wright, an award-winning author, is a former editor who writes on a wide variety of subjects and has written for national magazines and newspapers and is currently at work on her fourth book. This book has just been reissued in a third edition.

From the Author:

Houser - All around us we see signs of financial trouble, from great credit card debt to personal bankruptcy. I would like to see children everywhere learn to manage their money and learn to live within their income as they move through the different stages of life. If there is a special child in your life between 5 and 15, make a luncheon date and talk with that child about a plan you could work on together. That plan is outlined with step-by-step instructions for the adult and includes exercises and field trips.

There's even a crash course in the front of the book for adults.
