As parents, we are constantly teaching our children and helping them to become the best individuals they can be. How to manage finances is one area in life we are responsible for teaching them about. There are so many individuals who are not taught how to save and I love that author Jordan Gosin brought the importance of saving into a children’s book. Jordan Gosin is the author of The Adventures of Lexton: Super Savings Account (Volume 1), which can be purchased online or in bookstores, retailing for $13.99
In The Adventures of Lexton: Super Savings Account (Volume 1), Lexton desperately wants a skateboard but does not have enough money. His grandfather teaches him the importance of saving money by opening a savings account at the local Jungle Street Bank. It is available in paperback (30 pages long) and is ideal for ages 6 and up.
This is a perfect holiday gift for any kid. The illustrations are cute and the best part of this book is that it teaches children all about saving!
MY THOUGHTS
I liked this book and my boys enjoyed reading it as well! A big thanks goes to author Jordan Gosin who wrote this fun book that teaches kids how to save money. Saving money is definitely a skill that is learned and what better time to start than to teach our children when they’re young!

I combine coupons with sales to save extra at the grocery store. We also turn of lights when we are not in a room, turn the computer off when it’s not in use, and unplug appliances when they are not being used.
We have timers on lights!
We save money by making home cooked meals, shopping with coupons and a list, and not grocery shopping when I’m hungry!
