Money Lessons
A fun series for childrens financial education!
Are you ready to simplify money and teach kids invaluable habits and skills?
We’re on a mission to transform financial education for the next generation, and help families build deeper connection along the way.
WE PLAN TO DO THAT WITH...
The magic of books!
Welcome to The Road to Riches
A place where money questions are asked, and important money skills are gained.
Tell me more...
We designed the Money Lessons series for children aged 2 to 8 years old, as a fun way to introduce them to money concepts early. Research shows that kids start forming financial habits as early as 3, and by 7 years old their money attitudes and habits are fairly set.
To assist kids in developing money behaviours and skills that will empower them long term, these books are tools that parents, carers, and teachers can use to support young minds during this important time.
Covering eight fundamental money lessons that every kid needs to know, these bright, fun, and uplifting books help make learning about money easy and enjoyable! Plus, they invite kids to get curious and inquisitive about money, spark engaging conversations, ignite imaginations, and open little eyes to what’s possible. These colourful and wholesome books are what parents, carers, and schools have been waiting for.
Here’s a snapshot of what kids will learn along The Road to Riches:
The Characters and Money Lessons
Meet the kids who travel the Road to Riches, the Money Teachers who guide them, and discover the lessons they learn and apply.
What's more...
Parents can read these books to their children each night before bed, or schools can use them as resources to accompany the curriculum and support teachers with their lesson plans.
Childcare centres can take money lessons from these books and turn them into fun imaginary play opportunities, or they can be gifted to soon-to-be-parents, carers, or grandparents.
These books are not only for entertaining, educating, and empowering kids, they are also fantastic tools for fostering strong bonds and opening lines of communication between child and adult. Each book includes a bonus section at the end with practical tips and scripts so you can apply the lessons learned in the real world too, and keep the conversation going (how cool is that?!)
Through making money fun, simple, and safe to discuss, these books can help transform how the next generation relates to and operates with money.
