September 16th has been designated National Talk Money Night, to encourage parents to start a conversation with their children about money.
For many, it can be perceived as a difficult subject to approach. As children we may have been taught not to discuss money or financial matters, therefore as adults we continue those rules. The problem here however is that bad habits or poor knowldge around money is passed on from generation to generation.
Some financial literacy education is slowly finding its way into the school system, however parents still have an important role to play.
National Talk Money Night can be a good excuse to sit down with your child and begin a conversation about money and their future plans. For parents of pre-teenagers The Financial Fairy Tales has produced a special package to make approaching the subject easy and a whole lot more fun.
We are providing parents with a free download of Dreams Can Come True, the first book in the Financial Fairy Tales series, plus a collection of activity sheets with questions and prompts.
Our aim is to make the conversations about money less daunting by providing tools and resources which make learning about money serious fun!
Sign up for your free Dreams Can Come True eBook here on the Financial Fairy Tales blog or the main website http://www.thefinancialfairytales.com and you will also receive your activity sheets in plenty of time for National Talk Money Night on the 16th September
