We teach kids algebra. Who's teaching them what to do with a paycheck?
The Money Game turns one class period into the money lesson your standards skip and your students actually ask to replay. No lecture. No lesson plan spiral. Just 30 to 45 minutes of movement, decisions, and learning that sticks.

Why do we spend a decade teaching kids to solve for x, and almost none teaching them how to not go broke?
You already know the pattern, because you're watching the next generation walk straight into it. Credit card debt before graduation. No idea what "investing" actually means. Money treated like a mystery instead of a system.
It's not a discipline problem. It's a curriculum gap. Nobody handed them the operating manual, and worksheets and allowance charts were never going to be it.
The Money Game
An interactive, on your feet financial education experience that teaches kids and teens how to earn, save, spend, and invest, before real life forces the lesson on them the hard way. It's not a board game you sit and roll dice at. It's a money simulation, built for movement, competition, and the kind of energy that makes a classroom actually loud with learning.
Nine reasons teachers keep this in rotation
Real world money lessons disguised as fun
From budgeting to investing, students gain skills that most adults wish they'd learned as kids.
Experiential learning through play
Active engagement builds strong money habits many adults still lack. You might pick up a few tips too.
A built in money mindset shift
Students start to see money as a tool, thinking like producers, not just consumers.
Works for one student or thirty
Same kit, same impact. A single learner at the kitchen table or a full first period.
The Six Money Jars System
Students learn the framework wealthy families use to manage money. No spreadsheets, no stress.
Retires the outdated allowance model
Swaps "here's five dollars" for a system that builds real responsibility and resilience.
Introduces passive income and investing
Assets, passive income, long term thinking, introduced while it's still easy to absorb.
Teacher approved curriculum
A plug and play financial literacy experience that keeps students excited about money management.
Rooted in self worth and freedom

Words from teachers, not marketers
"I am a fifth grade teacher and have been using The Money Game for three months in my classroom and see this reaction daily from my students. The energy in my room has gone through the roof."
"I've been using The Money Game in my high school classrooms and the kids have such a great time. It's so frustrating to see the rest of our students not getting this critical information when it's this easy to play."
"My students are having so much fun learning about money. The entire experience was built on a standard of excellence, and I learned things I hadn't previously known."
"One girl read the principle, 'being broke is temporary, being poor is a state of mind.' The kids grew still. I could see them realize there was hope for a change."
Before you ask, here's what you're probably wondering
Is this a sit at the table board game?
No, it's built for movement. Picture students on their feet, racing, deciding, and learning, not sitting quietly with dice.
What age group is this for?
Ages 8 and up... tweens, teens, and honestly, plenty of adults pick up something new too. If they can count money and make a decision, they're ready.
How long does a session take?
Most sessions run 30 to 45 minutes, depending on group size and rounds played. Long enough to teach, short enough to fit your period.
Do I need to be a "money person" to run this?
Not at all. The Instructor Guide and the Live Teacher Training Video Set walk you through everything. Built for teachers who've never taught a money lesson in their life.
What if I only have one student, not a class?
It works beautifully one on one too. Parents, tutors, and homeschool teachers use the exact same kit.
Will they actually learn something, or is this just play?
Both. That's the point. Saving, spending, budgeting, earning, and investing, taught through challenges that make the lessons stick, not worksheets that get forgotten by Friday.
Give your students the financial education their standards forgot.
One class period. One game. A lifetime of better money decisions ahead of them.
