Millie is learning to save money

Jacade and I are currently taking the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University class at church on Sundays. And the lesson last week was about teaching your children to save money and the question was brought up in class as to what was a good age to start?

I made the comment that, Millie at now 18 months old, is already starting to learn. She doesn't necessarily understand everything about it but she is learning the concept. We have a large 5-gallon water jar that we use to save change and then we use the change for vacations. Well, Jacade taught her to put the money in there. And everytime we bring home change we give it to her and she walks right to the "bank" and "deposits" her change. And we tell her that we are saving money.

So, maybe it's true that it's never too early to learn how to save money!
