Here's a good way to mess with your kids! Hold up a $20 bill and ask them to catch it. Just be sure to set the rule that they must catch it with their one hand...before it touches the ground.

Teach Your Kids the Value of Money with a Job Board
Teach Your Kids the Value of Money with a Job Board: Giving your kids allowance is a great way to teach them about financial responsibility, but it doesn't necessarily instill the concept of trading work for money. A simple job board can teach them some valuable lessons, and also get some chores done around the house.
I've been struggling with keeping the kids on task with their responsibilities. We've tried calendaring, daily allowance, weekly tracking, picking chores out of a hat...and of course asking (begging?) them to assist with work around the house. Nothing seems to be working for me!
I like the idea of trading work for money around as it teaches them responsibility as well as the value of hard work (along with some life skills)....but I guess I just haven't found the sweet spot that makes the extra cash worth their while.
What do you do to get your little ones to pitch in? Leave a comment below!
