Here are a few games I believe can help parents teach children about money and budgeting:
 
|
Monopoly - Of course… kids just love holding fake money and buying streets. We own “King’s Island-Opoly” we bought after visiting King’s Island last summer. Our daughter keeps begging us to play. |
| Sim-City - An addictive computer game. I used to play it as a kid in the late 80-s. Makes the children think about budget concerns. The latest version has a cool 3D view and kids find it exciting. |

Roller coaster tycoon - My kids haven’t had the chance to play this yet but from trying it out about 8 years ago I can say it is very entertaining, addictive almost, and still forces the kids to concentrate on budgeting as much as on having fun. |
That’s all for now… I’m sure there’s lots more - I’d be happy to hear more ideas on the comments section.

My name is Caren.
I find your site http://withinmymeans.blogvis.com and the selection of resources very interesting.
I have a good credit card website that contains much useful information for your readers. There’s a fine set of articles that reveal all pros and cons of credit cards, give tips how to reduce credit card debt and establish good credit.
If it agrees with your policy, I would like to place some links at your site.
Please let me know if you are interested via email caren@acclaimnetwork.com
Thank you for your time,
