You know I think this is just right for her in terms of age and ability to do it, she seems motivated and I think the nicer board and envelope makes it more real and official (vs our basic white envelopes).
It was onsale at walmart.com with cheap shipping so figured let's grab it and give it a try, she seems very motivated by her new dry erase savings and commissions boards and her fun new envelopes.
I do feel a bit bad as we haven't sat down with her to go over commission stuff yet, just been crazy busy this last few weeks with taxes life etc, but it is on our plan here to get things really rolling for her as she has a summer trip coming up and that too will be motivation for her to save up for that to have spending money etc.
Seems pretty straight forward you could do the basics of it without their fancy envelopes and the dry erase boards, just wanted something kinda official for her figured it might help her focus more on it, but I love the domino or poker chip ideas based on the same principals!!!!!!
Either way we are raising our kids with better methods of money management so we all win on that one!!!!!!
