Rathmore & District Credit Union strongly recognises the importance of nurturing a relationship with its younger members and we run a number of initiatives for our younger members;
Top tips for parents to help children develop smart money habits
- Pocket money is a good way to help children learn to make their own decisions. Link pocket money to chores so children learn that money is earned.
- Use piggy banks, counting games and visual tools to keep children engaged. Share stories with them about your saving experiences.
- Explain how interest works. When you put money in a savings account, these savings earn more money at the end of the year.
- Allow children to make their own spending decisions, even mistakes. Offer them guidance and advice.
- Take your children to your local credit union to start saving today.
