Money Monsters

Elementary school activities (grades K–5)

The Money Monsters are a group of creatures who are new to our universe. That means they need to learn about many important things like school, friendship, and financial literacy. Their stories introduce children to the ideas, habits and skills they’ll need as they grow up and start to manage their own money.
