How many of you feel like a
Fairy Godmother at times?
It’s time for a change… Introduce money slowly and lead by example
GRANTING EVERY WISH YOUR CHILD MAKES…..

My child’s too young…
My child has no responsibility…
I’m not sure I can…
I’m bad with money myself.
How do I do that ?

3 Steps to Mum’s Money Management
Collect It
Start with coins
Count it Keep it safe
Put it awayAdd them up

0-5 years
PRE SCHOOL MONEY EXPLORING IS FUN…

The Money
Game
0-5 years
London is full
of coins!
How many can you find today?
Money Education is Fun and as Easy as 1 2 3
There are pennies everywhere, when you’re in the
park or taking that afternoon stroll collect the coins.
You will be surprised how fast you can fill a jar

Age 6+
CHILDREN ARE AWARE OF THERE SURROUNDINGS SO EXPAND THERE MINDS

Introduce your child to The HOUSEHOLD
If children know what happens in a house they
become aware of their environment. They
can start to save energy and as a result save
money in the house.
Use the cross section to list the bills and come
up with some energy saving ideas. A great
interactive activity for you and share with your
child(ren)

Age 11+
I CAN DO IT FOR MYSELF

Making older children Independent
 Gradually expand older children’s pocket money or introduce it; there is a
reason and a purpose. They can learn to budget for their toiletries,
clothing, sports and social activities.
 Work out what you spend on your child in one of these areas in a year,
divide by 12 and give this to them as a monthly allowance, add a little bit
extra for savings and sweets. Monitor the change in how they spend their
own money
 When they’re confident in one area, add another and so on until they’re
managing all their personal spending.
The Question is… Are you ready to let go?

Are you confident to Be a
Mum and NOT a
Fairy Godmother?
YOU DON’T HAVE TO SAY YES ALL THE TIME! YOU HAVE THE POWER TO
INTRODUCE POSITIVE MONEY HABITS. ITS OK TO SAVE FOR THE THINGS YOU
REALLY WANT.
Lets recap…
