One challenge to becoming good with money is the timing mismatch between when we establish money habits and beliefs as children and regularly use those habits as adults. This is why early financial education is so important. It’s an upstream solution to helping as many citizens as possible build personal financial peace of mind. Mindful spending lessons make learning about money immediately helpful to young people by allowing students to work on a problem that matters to them in real-time: “Should I buy this item or experience?” Once you discover that anyone can ask questions about money, that anyone can get and use financial information to make their life better, why…would you ever stop?

Good Morning Teachers. We know how much work it is to develop purpose-led in-classroom activities. So, we’ve created a suite that combines Earth Day and Financial Literacy Month into one class (or an entire morning or afternoon). Allow your students to experience first-hand why thoughtful consumption is an achievable upstream solution to climate change - that doesn’t mean they never get to do or buy anything fun!
