The Perfect Money Primer for Parenting,
By A Customer
This review is from: Smart-Money Moves for Kids (Paperback)
I heard the author speak at a conference in CA--everything she said was highly practical and useable in today's parenting demands. I wish I had had it when I was raising my own kids. I bought the book for my daughter.

Author of Out Of Focus...Again/Freelance Writer,

This review is from: Smart-Money Moves for Kids (Paperback)
I loved this book, and purchased copies to be used by each of my children as they raise their children. I made a point of showing it to my four oldest grandchildren, ages 11, 9 and 7, who were all excited about a book I brought for them on money. I know that it made them feel not grown up, but also motivated them to read Smart- Money Moves for Kids for ideas that they can use themselves. As a former teacher I believe that one of the biggest mistakes parents make about their children is that they disregard the fact that children are quite capable if we allow them to be. It's important that the adults in their lives not only treat them with respect by soliciting their ideas, but also provide guidance for them as they learn about making important decisions about finances.
Smart-Money Moves for Kids is always a great gift for children as well as for their parents. Expectant parents would appreciate copies as well.
