Millionaire Secret for Kids - Money Scholar Launches Piggy Bank of the Future at the Atlanta Gift Show
When is a piggy bank not just a piggy bank? When it teaches more than just hiding your money inside its belly. The Money Scholar Bank are designer banks that teach the four pillars of smart financial management to children of all ages.
LOS ANGELES, CA, January 13, 2011
Money Scholar will debut its line of piggy banks of the future at The Atlanta International Gift and Home Furnishing Market at the AmericasMart starting on January 14th-18th.Unlike the traditional piggy banks which only reinforce the concept of saving, these Money Scholar Banks teach the four pillars of smart money management - save, invest, give and spending within a budget.
"It is amazing how we care so much about teaching our kids, language, math, good manners but we neglect financial literacy. If our kids don't know how ot manage money by the time they are teenagers, it will be an uphill battle for them as young adults and adults." says Christine Douglas, founder of Money Scholar.
These Money Scholar banks come in gender specific designs and vibrant colors. Among the new Money Scholar Bank designs to be featured at the Atlanta Gift Show are the red sports car, the pink diva bag and the baseball glove. Also available will be Money Scholar's most popular banks - the Classic Sports Bank, the Modern Sports Bank, Bug Bank, and the Cheetah Print / Cow Print Purse Bank.
All these have been carefully conceived to engage a child's interest and launch them into a conversation about what every child, no matter what age, needs to know in order to build a financially secure future.
"I am very excited about this opportunity to show off the unique features of our products. Of course, one of our goals is to find more quality retailers." Christine Douglas, founder of Money Scholar writes. "But more importantly, we want to connect with our retailers so that they understand and support our mission to encourage children to become financially literate individuals."
Money Scholar will be part of the "Buy Mom" booth in Building 3 Booth #2305 on the 4thfloor. Look for The Buy Mom logo on the booth.
