Having only learnt about financial literacy at the age of 30,
I can't stress enough about learning to manage money & investing.
So when I heard about RichMinds Academy Program,
I was thrilled.
Financial Literacy for Little Kids.
How Amazing!
This is definitely one thing that is
lacking from our educational system.
We were mostly taught to study
hard, score well, and settle for a good paying job.
But, no one has ever divulge the secrets of money management/investment!!
Off to a very Good Start.
Sophia is all excited about decorating her personal RichMinds Academy folder.
The 5 attributes to Financial Freedom
Kiddie Style
(Spend, Save, Earn, Share, Build)
Kids were taught about money & different currencies.
Sophia doing some serious coin shading.
Hiroshi simply prefers notes
They even made their very own wallets.
A trip to a atas Supermarket
Rochester Market
Learning about "Needs" and "Want"
And even understood what it meant by
"More Value for Money"
Simulated Market Place for Lunch Time.
This is Sophia thinking really, really hard
about what to spend her money on.
Learning to Save by Making Piggy Banks

Learning to Earn their Keep

Now off to some baking fun!
Filling your little tummies before learning to bake.

Run, Run
as fast as you can,
You can't catch me,
I'm the Gingerbread Man!
ooOoOoooOoooooo...
Let's start pipping!
The Contented Smile
After all the baking frenzy,
kids were taught to share their bakes.
Both kids had a jolly good time
and asked if we'll be coming back again for another class.
New friendships were forged
Special Thanks to Richminds Academy
and all those hardworking mentors
for making learning about financial literacy a joy!
I would highly recommend this program to other parents out there
who are interested to teach their kids about the value for money
in a fun and engaging way.
