In China, many parents are teaching their children how to use money wisely and teaching them to save money.
If children want to buy something, they can use their own pocket money. Parents will help them find out what they need and what they want. They hope children can buy the needs first. So before children buying things, they will ask questions like “Do you need it now?” or “Do you already(已经) have one?”
When children use their money, parents also teach them to share it with others. For example, they may teach their children to
donate money to people in need. In this way, children can learn to be helpful.
Saving is also important. Parents will give suggestions like “Save half of the money in the money jar.” In this way, children can buy big things later. This helps them know that good things take time. Saving money is a great habit in their life.
