THE KIDS' ALLOWANCE BOOK

TIPS FOR KIDS ON HOW TO MANAGE MONEY

This lively book answers families' questions about allowances: How much to give? When to start? How to set it up? How to keep kids from blowing it? Written for kids, but vital for parents, the book's advice comes from the Allowance All-Star Squad, 166 kids from around the country who have tackled allowance snags — and won. Their parents chime in, too, as do financial and psychology experts.

 

Practical, informative, accessible, with delightful illustrations by Debbie Palen, this book is for kids, but parents can pick up some helpful hints, too.

 

A fun yet important guide to a topic near and dear to kids and adults alike, a topic the author became an expert on both from first hand-experience as a mom giving allowances to her two sons, and also from more than a decade of writing about kids' money issues as a Associate Editor of ZILLIONS, the former kids' magazine published by CONSUMER REPORTS.
