An interesting topic I read on Epopular, a site managed by Popular. From the title itself already interest me to read. How can I get my child make money? If it can be done, then definitely it's good because the more the merrier right? I meant $$$!
The topic shared 8 things whereby you can get your child to help you save money or turn things/stuffs into money besides teaching them how to save money. After reading this article, we can also ask our child to help us "make" $.
How? The 8 things are:
- Make a shopping list
- Go through grocery ads and brochures
- Point out common sales tactics and terminology
- Go comparison shopping
- Help them plan for the things they want
- Understand the concept of utility charges
- Make things last
- Turn trash and unwanted items into cash
In "Make Things Last", I seriously like the phrase, "Nice to look at, good to hold, if you break it, consider it sold'" which they use in the article. I will definitely put this into practice when Junior is ready and understand the phrase.
When I was reading the part, "Turn trash and unwanted items into cash", sometimes Daddy and I will participate in neighbourhood's flea market to sell away our unwanted stuffs. We often ask Junior whether he would like to sell some of his toys which no longer interests him. But kids being kids, he will shrug us off when we told him we want to sell away his toys. This makes him treasure his toys more.
