“The best tool is the one you use. I loved the Larry Burkett resources, but they sit on my shelf...dusty. FamilyMint "forces" conversations about money and proper handling of it EVERY SINGLE WEEK.
There is a great on line tool out there that gets your kids away from the silly piggy banks and stashes of money in dress up purses! The kids manage it themselves and can start to see how savings - and spending- effect their goals!There is a great on line tool out there that gets your kids away from the silly piggy banks and stashes of money in dress up purses!

“FamilyMint is a great way for the kids to learn the value of a dollar. Instead of having to fight with my kids about getting something, I ask if they have the money in their account.”

“You won't have to worry about remembering to give the kids their allowance, PLUS you keep track of how they spend their money so you can use it as a teaching tool. Finally, it completely eliminates the "Mama & Papa are an endless source of money." Either the money they want to spend is in FamilyMint or not. If they don't have it, they must save.”
Laura S.
“This is a very family friendly, no hassle way of keeping up with our children's money. The kids have a deep interest in keeping up with where there money will be spent and how much more they can "earn." There are no more loose bills belonging to "who knows who" lying around because they immediately want to deposit their money into their accounts.”
Lori F.
“FamilyMint is helping my children so much to SEE the reward of their work (getting paid an allowance) and teaching them how to manage their money. Watching their savings grow is very motivating! And it makes them feel so grown up to be able to access their own account on the computer just like we do ours.”
Sandra D.
“It is an AWESOME way to teach kids about saving money!”
Dawn C.
“In my personal opinion and years of experience in the Financial Services Business, it will pay their children 110% of what they could otherwise give them in any other financial guidance. It will help change their children's mindset and way of thinking about money rather than being just a savings vehicle. It is about changing mindset and way of thinking by doing and seeing.”
Don W.
“Really changes the way kids view money!”
Michelle W.
“It's a great way for kids to learn how to keep track of their own money and develop savings plans, both of which are great skills to have BEFORE they leave home, not just AFTER.”

“If parents take a few minutes up front they will be turning out "Money Smart Kids". Parents must remember: Today's Children are Tomorrow's Adults!”
