Teaching Financial Literacy in School as extra curricular activity

18/09/2026

DON’T JUST SAY “NO” TO EVERY WANT.

Teach them how to work towards it.

Swipe to see how →

STEP 1 - WRITE IT DOWN

The next time your child asks for something they want…

Ask them to write it down.

Then put it in the Little Dreams Jar.

STEP 2 - MAKE IT A GOAL

Find out the price together.

Then ask:

“How much can we save each week?”

Now, “I want it” becomes

“I have a goal.”

STEP 3: SAVE TOGETHER

Let your child add money to the jar regularly.

You can contribute too.

The goal? Save with a purpose.

STEP 4: TRACK THE PROGRESS

₹500 → ₹1,000 → ₹1,500 → ₹2,000…

Let your child mark each milestone.

When they see the progress,
saving feels exciting.

A simple jar.

A simple goal.

A BIG money lesson.

You don’t need a complicated lesson to teach financial literacy for kids.

Sometimes, you just need to turn an everyday “I want this!” into a goal.

Kids don't lie about what they've learned.

These 9-year-olds just explained saving better than most adults do.
No script. No prompts. Just real answers.

We asked our students, aged 7 to 10, one simple question: "What did you learn about money?"
Their answers? Priceless.

One said needs come before wants.
Another said saving feels better than spending.
A third said every rupee has a job.

This is what financial literacy for kids looks like. Not lectures. Not spreadsheets. Just real understanding, built through real activities.

Because when kids learn about money early, they don't just remember it. They live it.

Want your child to talk about money like this? It starts small. A worksheet here. A conversation there. A habit repeated often enough.

That's exactly what we do at Finstart Kids.

Money Myth Monday

“They’re too young to learn about money.”
Are they really?

Your child is already learning about money.
From what they see.
What they get.
What they spend.
What they wait for.

Money habits start long before adulthood.
And waiting until they’re grown up?

That’s when you may be trying to fix habits instead of building them.

The good news?
You don’t need complicated lessons.

Start with small money conversations.
Let them make small choices.
Let them save.
Let them wait.
Let them learn.

Financial literacy for kids starts with everyday experiences.

share it with a parent who thinks their child is “too young” to learn about money.

Real shopping. Real money. Real lessons.

This week, our Money Champs stepped out of the classroom and into a supermarket — making a list, sticking to a budget, paying at the counter, and coming back to write down every rupee spent.

This is what financial literacy looks like in action: not just theory, but real decisions with real consequences (and a receipt to prove it!).

Would your child make it through a shopping trip on a budget? Let us know in the comments.

This is what we mean by learning through experience.

When children laugh, participate, feel proud and want to come back—that’s when learning truly stays with them.

At Finstart, we don’t want children to just learn about money. We want them to feel confident, curious and excited about it.

Because the best lessons aren’t just taught.
They’re experienced.

New week, new lesson in money-smart parenting.

We often wait for kids to “grow up” before talking about money — but by age 7, most habits are already forming. Every small action repeated often enough becomes who they are.

The habits your child repeats today are the choices they’ll make tomorrow. That’s why we believe money lessons should start early — and start simple

There’s nothing more rewarding than hearing what children take back home after a workshop. 💛

**”My First Budget: Managing My Pocket Money”** workshop—and their answers remind us that financial literacy doesn’t have to wait until adulthood.

When children understand how to earn, save, spend, and make thoughtful choices early, they build habits that stay with them for life.

A big thank you to all the wonderful students and GGIS for making this session so memorable.

Money habits aren’t built overnight—they’re built in everyday moments. 💜

Every time a child helps at home, they’re learning that effort creates value. And when children learn to value effort, they begin to understand the value of money.

What’s one small responsibility your child takes on at home? We’d love to hear in the comments! 🌱
