Banker: first steps in the world of finance

If you want your child to begin to understand how to manage their finances, then a banker activity is a great way to start. Plus, this activity can provide you with some quiet time while your little one is occupied.

The first step in this activity is to empty the contents of the piggy bank onto the table. The child will be able to look at his wealth and begin to evaluate it. Then he needs to be given a large sheet of paper, divided into five columns, and above each column, sign the name of the coin (ruble, five, ten, twenty and fifty).

For each coin, the child must mark a place, and if there are a lot of coins, he can stack them in a column of five and mark a place for each column. This simple process will help your child begin to understand that each coin has a value, and that the more coins, the greater their value.

Next, you can have your child count the total amount of each category of coins so that he can understand how much money he has in each category. This will also help him begin to understand how to manage his finances and plan his expenses.

If your child already knows how to count, you can give him the task of counting the total amount of all the coins. If he doesn’t know how to count yet, you can ask him to help you sort the coins using the names of the coins.

In addition, you can explain to your child that bankers are people who manage money. They can help people save their money, earn more money and invest it. This can be a good opportunity to discuss the importance of financial management and how bankers can help people with it.

Overall, the banker activity is a great way to introduce your child to the world of finance and managing their money. This can help him begin to understand that money is not only a medium of exchange, but also something that needs to be managed.
