Homeschool financial literacy curriculum

Homeschool personal finance course

Teenagers spending money

MoneyTime is the ideal homeschool financial literacy curriculum for 10 to 14 year old kids in New Zealand and Australia.

It combines 30 self-directed personal finance lessons with an interactive game. It teaches them the key principals of successful money management then they learn through trial and error what works while having fun.

And you don’t have to do any teaching at all, unless of course you want to (we help with that too).

  • Parent guides provided if you want to be involved

  • Regular assessment, detailed reporting and completion certificates

  • Gamified for experiential learning - your children will want to do it

  • Your child gets to learn the stuff you wish you had been taught!

I was amazed by how easy MoneyTime was to work use. The helpful characters and games make this program one that your kids will be asking to “play” and all the while learning life skills.

This was a sign-on-and-go program for my son. I didn’t need to explain or look over his shoulder. He took off flying and gave himself a job of pulling weeds and raking leaves in our neighborhood. Really this is hilarious if you know my son. My favorite part is that the program engages kids with a reward system that directly relates to learning the concepts.
