Introduction and Backgroud

Teaching children good money habits early is one of the most impactful gifts a parent, teacher, or mentor can give. Yet traditional lessons about budgeting, saving, and giving can quickly feel boring or abstract for kids. That’s where a money school designed specifically for children makes all the difference.

Drawing on more than 25 years of experience educating children around the world—and designing practical financial education strategies for families, schools, and community partners—Sammy Rabbit’s Money School brings together stories, songs, activities, and experiences to make learning about money fun, engaging, and memorable.

What Is a Money School for Kids?

A money school helps children learn essential personal finance concepts—such as saving, spending smart, earning, and goal-setting—through interactive, age-appropriate methods that support thoughtful choices now and in the future. Rather than relying on lectures, a money school invites kids to play, sing, read, write, imagine, and participate.

At Sammy Rabbit’s Money School, children engage in rich learning experiences that feel like play while helping them build practical, lifelong money habits and skills.

Building Money Habits Through Stories

Stories are powerful because they help kids see themselves in real-world situations. The Story and Activities Section of Sammy Rabbit’s Money School gives learners multiple ways to engage with Sammy’s Big Dream—including reading, coloring, illustrating, writing their own version of the adventure, and listening to the author tell the story.

This approach introduces financial concepts in accessible, age-appropriate ways and encourages children to think, talk, and reflect on money in meaningful and personal ways.

Singing to Learn

Songs make learning stick. The Song Series Section of the school covers topics such as budgeting, saving, wants versus needs, making choices, and dreaming big. These catchy tunes help children remember key ideas by engaging multiple senses at once.

Whether it’s Get in the Habit or Make Your Choices Count, each song turns important lessons into joyful, repeatable experiences—and every song is supported by 10 companion activities to reinforce learning.

Dream Big Journaling

The Dream Big Journal invites children to reflect on their goals, imagine their future, and begin planning simple steps—and money strategies—to help turn their dreams into reality.

Decode & Sing: Music Meets Money Thinking

Decode & Sing takes learning one step further by combining music with problem-solving. Children listen, sing along, and then “decode” the money messages embedded in the lyrics. This approach strengthens listening skills, critical thinking, and financial vocabulary—all in a format kids love.

Expanding Learning With All Star Readers

The All Star Readers section of the school gives children a unique way to build money, reading, and listening skills at the same time. Through engaging personal finance storybooks—read aloud by community leaders from around the world—kids experience wonder-filled financial lessons that feel meaningful and fun. The Sammy Rabbit All-Star Readers Series brings money concepts to life in a relatable way, making financial learning an enjoyable experience for the whole family.

Activities

The school includes over 400 downloadable activity worksheets, from puzzles and word searches to quizzes and writing exercises, giving children fun, hands-on ways to keep learning and practicing positive money habits.

Resources for Parents, Teachers, Mentors, and Educators of Every Kind

The school offers a wide range of resources, tools, and practical tips designed to make teaching and talking with kids about money both time-efficient and engaging. These include insight-rich blog articles, standards-aligned classroom lesson plans, and easy-to-use conversation guides for homes, cars, and everyday moments—plus more to support confident, ongoing money learning.

Why Money Habits Matter

Building strong money habits early helps set children up for financial confidence, stability, and freedom later in life. A well-designed money school gives kids the tools they need to make smart choices and approach money with purpose—not anxiety.

Sammy Rabbit’s Money School brings all of these elements together in one place—where learning about money is joyful, interactive, and rooted in real habits that last.
