Hi! I am new to the group, found it over on linkedin.

I think the earlier we start kids with bank account the better. Here is a bit of information why and how to get started: http://www.takeasmar...r-child-banker/

Wonderful article Andrea, thanks for sharing. I think the advice of using a physical bank for children as opposed to online banking is a good point. It's just more real (for a lack of better word) to them.

Thank you! It is more real, and they get the excitement of going. My son's credit union is having their annual meeting next month and he is so excited to go. He loves the idea that he is a part of the process. It even helps me be more excited about money as the excitement is contagious.
