I love #4. It also teaches the child that they too, are special. Explain how special their “one of a kind” creation is, and how their may be thousands of the same item in the store. The comparison may help add perspective.

Hey, Maya!
I am aspiring dad trying to rise my two daughters by values. While money is not in our values list it is important to explain them what money is all about.
I loved your story a lot and “Share a story about the life-cycle of money” is my favorite. I am big fan of life-cycles of anything
Thanks for sharing.

Excellent! I just tweeted a link to this as I think teaching what is important in life and how to live a good frugal life needs to start young! We are 3 years into an open ended world tour and use many of these things with our child. We thrive on living large on little and find an extraordinary simple, green, fulfilling & free world-traveling life with an emphasis on education, creativity, connection and family bonding costs much less than most realize. We travel the world on 25K a year total costs & have been to 4 continents & 29 countries so far. I want my child to know that traveling and connecting with others from around the world is easy today and costs little or nothing. Stories and books add so much to a child's life and help impart ones values. Combining that with hands on, experiential learning like life as a field trip and the possibilities are endless for our global citizens of the 21st century! soultravelers3´s last blog post...Family Travel Photo-Spain
