A few words about The Mint
The Northwestern Mutual Foundation, the charitable arm of Northwestern Mutual, partnered with the National Council on Economic Education (NCEE) in the redesign of TheMint.org, to emphasize personal financial literacy. First developed in 1997, the Web site now provides more tools to help parents as well as educators teach children about sound money management and establish good money habits at home.
Given the current rate of savings and debt in America, this is a lesson that desperately needs to be learned. This site has been designed primarily for families — to help them work together and approach the topic of handling money wisely. However, there are also sections aimed exclusively at adults: teachers and parents. Ideas for Teachers contains supplemental activities to illustrate sound money management concepts. Pointers for Parents provides tips for mentoring and nurturing in children financial responsibility.
We invite you and your family to explore this site. It will give your pre-teens and teens a fun and interactive way to learn about earning, saving, spending, investing, and borrowing. And in Ideas for Young Kids we give you tips to start this important message early, even before your children start grade school.
