Money 101 for Kids
This activity pack is paired with Walter Andal’s Finance 101 for Kids (not included).
For this school year, I wanted to include a finance curriculum.
This is when I found Mr. Andal’s Finance 101 for Kids book on Amazon.
It looked fun to read, and it was affordable.
After reading this book, I knew it was a perfect fit for my kids and their 7th-grade curriculum.
It was easy to read, and it touched upon everything from the history of finances to stock markets.
As with most books I use in homeschooling, I usually schedule the pages my kids need to read for each day until we are done with a book.
However, I wanted this to be more than just a ‘read this’ curriculum. I wanted it to be visual, hands-on, educational, and fun.
And so, I created this lapbook activity pack to really get kids more involved in learning about money.

Money 101 in the Homeschool
Below are pics of the boys working on their pack.
First, the boys liked putting the “bank vault” cover for their lapbooks together.

And as much as my kids are not into art, they put some effort into coloring their mini-books.

As part of the bartering system, the boys managed to negotiate rewards for their chores.

When learning about checks, the boys couldn’t wait to start writing them.
They enjoyed feeling like adults paying (fake) bills with their checks.
And, of course, to make it ‘feel’ somewhat real, we laminated our credit cards.

Again, we had a lot of fun reading this book and working through our activity pack.
So, if you would like to purchase this pack, click here to visit our shop.
