Youth Financial Literacy Resources for Parents

 

Building strong financial and consumer skills in youth can start early. Kids as early as 4-6 years old can begin to understand basic concepts. Providing youth with consumer, banking and money management related experiences help them build skills and confidence in the market place. How parents guide the experiences and communicate about money influences the financial skills acquired and the confidence created.

Helping Your Child Learn to Manage Money – this publication provides information about how parents can assist youth in building financial and consumer skills from preschool through the teen years.
