About This Workshop
Many of us had to learn the hard way about managing money, credit and planning. Some of us are still struggling with these issues. Whether you are a fiscal wizard or a beginner, you can teach your children essential financial literacy. The skills you teach your children will help them
develop habits that will enrich the rest of their lives. Understanding the nature of money, what it can and cannot do, and how to make it work in your life are all learned skills you can help children acquire right now.

- Recognize the nature of financial literacy and why it is important

- Reflect on your own financial literacy and how you are doing as a role model
