Why Piggy Bank Tutor?

---

Research shows children can begin learning about money as early as three years old. And starting early can help young children learn healthy financial habits that will last a lifetime. Children grow up so fast and teaching them the value of money often gets overlooked. Unfortunately, in hindsight, parents regret not teaching their kids this important life lesson of money management.

My Story

Like most adults, growing up my parents did not teach me about financial literacy.  And of course, typically parents do their best but, assume their kids will learn about money along the way. When this happens, young adults struggle financially. 

As a mom of young children and a teacher, I was determined to teach financial literacy to my children and others. So, I created Piggy Bank Tutor, featuring The Three Little Pigs, Money-Math Coaches, LeLe, CeCe and BeBe. Raising money smart kids is a family affair.
