This review is from: Clark Smart Parents, Clark Smart Kids: Teaching Kids of Every Age the Value of Money (Paperback)
This book has all the worksheets you can think of and some great ideas for your child(ren). Now I'm much more prepared and excited about teaching my little boy how to be responsible with money. He gives some fun and easy ways to teach children as well as adults how to handle money to your benefit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Practical Advice, October 10, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Clark Smart Parents, Clark Smart Kids: Teaching Kids of Every Age the Value of Money (Paperback)
The advice is very well put, and definitely will save you money, more than what the book sells for. I was in particular looking for advice for my son to get his first car. The advice was good and made sense, so as the rest of the book.
