Allowance kids can see

Chores earn money. Money lands in jars. Kids watch it grow, and learn where it goes.

You keep the real money. Your kid gets a screen that shows what you owe, down to the last dime.

You tap OK. She sees it land.

What they learn

  1. No. 1

    Work earns it

    Chores and routines on a daily chart. Do the work, see the money land.

  2. No. 2

    Saving gets you there

    Name the goal, watch the jar fill, and see how close it is. Spend, save and give jars too, if you like.

  3. No. 3

    Spend it, and it's gone

    Every dollar in and out goes in a passbook. A comic book today means a smaller bike jar tomorrow.

  4. No. 4

    Small and steady adds up

    A dollar a day doesn't look like much. Four weeks of them does.

IOU

A written promise your kid can check

Think of it as an IOU that keeps itself. You decide what chores pay. Your kid sees every dollar earned, saved and spent. When it's time to spend, you pay out the real way.

No cards to hand over yet. No cash to lose in the wash.
