Because we recognize that sometimes, as Money Game Instructors, you have plenty of time to spread the rounds and lessons over several class or session periods and sometimes you are given an hour and have to squeeze as much education and experience into that time as you can, we've designed a couple of different types of [...]
After doing several short one-day programs where I focus mostly on The Money Game and maybe add one or more Extra Activities, I have developed a basic supplies list that I always use to make sure I haven't forgotten anything (because there's nothing more frustrating and embarrassing then forgetting one or more of the supplies [...]
When we play The Money Game with kids, teens and adults, we like to focus on the financial habits it takes to become financially free.

If you've ever taught a group of kids, or even if you haven't, you know what it's like to maintain some semblance of order in a group bigger than, oh...say...two! It doesn't take long for kids to get over their awkward self-consciousness and form little cliques, etc. The longer they spend time together, the more [...]
Death to PowerPoint! OK, well, not total death...PowerPoint presentations, aka slide shows, might be great for making funding presentations or showing graphs, cartoons, charts, or other illustrations to a group of people.
