You could ask the children
Why we have money?
What does this $ mean?
Are notes worth more than coins?
Why do we save money?
What is a want?
What is a need?

Our ideas for pocket money (it's all about helping others)
- Clean mum's car inside and out
- Help around the house - washing, making our beds, putting out the rubbish , feeding and caring for our pets, empty the dishwasher, wash / dry the dishes, keep our bedrooms tidy, gardening, bringing in the mail.
- Selling our old toys and books on Trade Me or a garage sale with an adult to help?
We could save money we get for our Birthdays or Christmas
Sometimes we use cash and sometimes we use an eftpos card (we swipe these and the money comes out of our bank account). We need to have money in our account for the eftpos card to work so we need to save our money.
Neena is coming home with some fantastic financial information. Love that she's learning this.
