Life skills-Economics

Teaching young children the value of economics is critical for later years . When your children begin asking for items when you go  to the store you will need to teach them that you cannot get everything that you they want . The child will begin to cry but you need to be strong and once the crying is over you need to explain in a calm voice that going to the stores does not mean that you need to purchase what they want.

This is when you help young children to develop self-discipline.We need to help young children  to learn  life skills .Learning to manage money is a very important skill for children to learn .
