Why Level 1 is Different

Children begin forming money beliefs long before they can count coins. Research shows these beliefs start to take shape by age 7, which is why Level 1 focuses on building the right foundation early. This resource goes beyond counting and coin recognition to help children:

  • Understand money as a tool, not a source of stress or fear

  • Learn the basics of earning, saving, spending, and giving

  • Begin recognizing wants versus needs in age-appropriate ways

  • Build confidence, self-esteem, and decision-making skills

Every activity, story, and conversation starter is aligned with national standards and tailored to the developmental stage of ages 3 to 5.

How It Helps Parents

We have already done the research and lesson planning for you. There is no need to spend hours searching online or piecing together ideas from different sources. Level 1 includes:

  • Step-by-step guidance on what to teach, when, and how

  • Ready-to-use printables such as conversation cards, games, and affirmations

  • Age-appropriate language that makes tricky topics easy to explain

  • EQ integration so your child learns about money and how to make choices with confidence and kindness

You will also find “For Parents” notes throughout the resource that help you model healthy habits, avoid common teaching pitfalls, and use everyday moments as natural learning opportunities.

What’s Inside Level 1 – Planning

  • Read-aloud sections designed for young attention spans

  • Simple, repeatable activities that reinforce key concepts

  • Coloring pages, cutouts, and games for hands-on learning

With Level 1, you are not only teaching your child about money. You are helping them develop the confidence, language, and habits that will guide them for life.
