Book Nook: Beyond Piggy Banks and Lemonade Stands: How to Teach Young Kids About Finance (and They're Never Too Young)

Liz Frazier's debut book Beyond Piggy Banks and Lemonade Stands: How to Teach Young Kids About Finance (and They're Never too Young), was recently released. With this book, Frazier looks to re-write the fundamentals of teaching finance to our little ones, which begins--and is most influential--at home.

A Certified Financial Planner specializing in financial planning for families, Frazier designed her book as a blueprint for parents to follow when teaching their children about the ins and outs of finance at any age. The steps, activities, and guidelines provided are meant to make finance fun and simple for kids, and teaching stress-free for parents. Frazier's breaks down these young age groups into different levels (beginner, intermediate, and advanced), as she believes that no child is too young to profit on learning financial literacy.

"It's important to get your kids started on the right track as they are learning money," says Frazier. "You want their early experiences with money to be positive because these will shape their values as they get older."
