Today the boys got another lesson on money. They emptied their very special piggy banks and we headed to the Credit Union. We walked over to the coin sorter to see how much they had saved in their banks. We told them that they would need to put half of it into their savings accounts and the other half they could use to get some more Skylander's.
In the near future we'll be setting up an allowance system and start making these trips to the bank a more regular process. I want them to learn the importance of saving; that it's OK to spend some of their earnings on the things that you want but that it's also important to put some of it away for the future.
