Join Small Legacies in teaching Financial Literacy for Kids across America! Follow the links below to learn more about teaching personal finance for youth. • Learn to Give, Save and Spend with the Enduring Legacy Bank: https://smalllegacies.com/collections... • • Our Mission: • We seek to enhance a child's foundational skill-building abilities through our development-focused products. We believe that simple learning moments early in life can leave an enduring legacy for years to come. Our curriculum is for primary schools and social studies homeschool curriculum. • About Ms. Kendra: • Kendra is Director of Digital Resources and curriculum for Small Legacies. A certified elementary educator and parent of three young boys, Kendra has a passion for teaching through engaging and varied techniques. Her background in theatre, educational technology and curriculum development have fueled her passion for teaching financial literacy creatively. • How we teach: • We believe in Skill-Building Made Simple. Our curriculum is centered around the GIVE-SAVE-SPEND Enduring Legacy™ Bank. Using the Enduring Legacy™ Bank, Financial literacy principles are learned in an engaging, fun way to ensure these essential skills are not easily forgotten! • Movement, music, and interpersonal (emotional) connections are crucial components of effective learning for children. Our work is greatly inspired by Educational Psychologist Howard Garnder and the theory of multiple intelligences. Because every child absorbs and interprets information uniquely. • Maria Montessori and her teachings have also greatly inspired our work. Above all, our work promotes child-led learning that is based in real-world life skills. The bank is made of natural solid wood and needs to be physically manipulated by the child. We focus on just one skill at a time, allowing children to flourish, thrive and learn in an environment that fits them perfectly. • We hope you love our life skills curriculum! • HOW DO YOU TALK TO YOUR KIDS ABOUT MONEY? • GIVE: • Share an example of a time when you donated money to a special cause. Is there an organization that is meaningful to you or your family? ASK YOUR CHILD: Why do you think it's important to give to others? Who do you think might be someone we can help? • SAVE: • Share an example of a time you saved your money for an important event in the future. Maybe you saved money to buy a house, a car, or attend college. ASK YOUR CHILD: Why do you think it's important to save? What's something fun you want to save up for? (Ex: a special trip, new bicycle) What's something important you should save for? (Ex: School Expenses) • SPEND: • Share an example of a time when you bought something fun with your money. Explain why you wanted the item and how you decided to purchase it. ASK YOUR CHILD: Is it ok to spend some of your money on small fun things? (yes!) What are some fun things you want to spend money on?
