I am a 2nd year teacher and I teach Kindergarten. These are the first resources that I've heard of for Kinder aged kids that address financial literacy. Love it!

Ashley, teacher in
Gilbert, AZ
★★★★★

My students loved the books! They were so anxious to move to the next book. The books kept the students' attention, and they hung on every word. They loved getting to use the books and work with economics too. 

Kristie, teacher in
Mount Ida, AR
★★★★★

I love how practical it was, both for me as an individual, and in learning how to teach my kids using these resources.

Elementary Teacher in
Raleigh, NC
★★★★★

This was perfect for our students to be introduced to economics at a young age and to start giving them vocabulary that they will use throughout their lives.

Danita, school administrator in
Scottsdale, AZ
★★★★★

The books have a lot of diversity in them. Subjects are relatable and relevant for the students I am working with.

Cherie, teacher in
Tucson, AZ
