Neale Godfrey's Money Doesn't Grow on Trees flew to the top of the bestseller lists by helping parents teach their kids the value and the uses of money. In A Penny Saved Godfrey builds on those basic concepts - for preschoolers through teenagers - and shows parents how to use money as a teaching tool to give children the life skills and values they will need to survive and thrive in society.In A Penny Saved, a lesson in budgeting becomes a lesson in goal setting and deferred gratification; a job chart reinforces the concept that you are paid for good work, not good behavior; a change-making game opens up a discussion of the importance of honesty.Work sheets, quizzes, teaching games, and exercises for preschoolers, school-age kids, and teenagers give kids hands-on opportunities to hone their practical skills.
