Money Lessons Your Kids Will Enjoy
Explaining how money works to middle schoolers can feel daunting, yet creative examples and straightforward explanations keep things engaging here. Each topic, from saving pocket change to understanding basic investment terms, is tailored to a level sixth- and seventh-graders can grasp. By presenting financial concepts with simple stories and practical exercises, it encourages kids to apply these lessons in their own lives—like deciding how much to save from an allowance or how to budget for a small goal. The approach never feels dry or dull. Instead, it nurtures healthy attitudes about money, preparing youngsters for bigger financial decisions later on.

Great Resource
This book should be required for all 4th and 5th graders to listen to. The authors insight and explanations of more complex subjects that relates them to how kids can understand is great. I love the analogy of planting in the garden to saving as just one of the examples in this great book.
