Money as You Grow, developed by Beth Kobliner and the Youth Subcommittee of the President’s Advisory Council on Financial Capability, provides 20 essential, age-appropriate financial lessons that kids need to know as they grow. Written in down-to-earth language for children and their families, Money as You Grow will help equip them with the knowledge they need to live a fiscally fit life.
The lessons in Money as You Grow were culled from existing national guidelines such as:
- Treasury and Financial Literacy
- Education Commission’s Financial Education Core Competencies
- Council of Chief State School Officers
- National Governors Association’s Common Core State Standards for Mathematics
- Council for Economic Education’s Financial Fitness for Life
- Jump$tart Coalition’s National Standards
- National Endowment for Financial Education’s High School Financial Planning Program
- Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship’s Your Financial Future
- Schwab’s MoneyWise
