IT’S A GOOD TIME!

The program uses a variety of teaching techniques to keep kids engaged throughout the entire program:

• MAKING IT RELEVANT: Kids may not care about checkbooks and credit cards yet because they don’t have to use them. The program shows them why it’s important to care now so they don’t "pay" later.
• EXPERIENCE THE CONTENT: Every major concept is tied to a game, activity or process – this means the children get to learn about the concept without the traditional classroom approach.
• REPETITION AND REVIEW: The students will be exposed to the most important information multiple times in a variety of different avenues so the information will be ultimately retained.

WHAT WILL THE STUDENTS LEARN?

The students will leave the program with a heightened awareness of the financial world around them. Covered areas include how to:

• Make money (jobs and businesses)
• Manage money (budgets)
• Multiply money (investing)
• Think like, and develop the habits of, a wealthy person
• When to use other people's money and when NOT to do so!
• Managing risk not avoiding it
• Importance of financial diversification
• Benefits of saving early and often

The Curriculum

Our programs, generally with a maximum of 25 motivated students in select age groups, employ the Camp Millionaire curriculum.  Programs focus on teaching 11-18 year olds about making, managing and multiplying money.  We use a proven, innovative approach that imparts practical money management principles, and explores, develops and reshapes young people’s attitudes about money.

Enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructors use a variety of games, role-play, activities, and other fun processes to keep participants engaged.  They leave with confidence
and knowledge about the world of money and what it means to them.

The stories and life experiences made me understand how important it is to learn about money and how to handle money. The games helped also and whole thing was a grand experience. Thank you."
