The best way to learn a skill is to practice!
Education:
Watch out parents – your kid is watching you! With that piece of information, you should realize that kids mimic the behavior of their parents. Frugal parents raise frugal children. Extravagant parents raise extravagant children. Pensive parents raise pensive children. I think you get the picture. What that teaches is that kids will learn to save or spend based on the example that you provide for them. Today’s lesson is to give you a fun tool to help teach your child about smart spending habits.
