🙇‍♀️ Why kids should learn about money?

🩺 Financial Literacy is a crucial life skill. "Walter the Vault®" is your friend, helping to bring up (typically awkward/unnatural) money conversations. Using interactive classes and entertaining media, we help kids understand money in a way that's compelling and fun.  It's never too early to start learning about money.

🐣 Early Empowerment: By embracing financial education early on, kids gain opportunities and choices, boosting their confidence and decision-making abilities.  Understanding money is not just for grown-ups (and grown-ups are encouraged to listen in to our lessons off-screen if they'd like).

✅ Goal Setting & Planning: Whether it's saving for a toy, a new computer, or planning for college, kids learn the importance of envisioning their dreams, setting goals, and taking steps to achieve them. They will learn how small actions add up significantly over time. Children will learn the value of setting and accomplishing self-driven dreams – and then watching them come true!
