Playing games is fun. Useful side-effect: the things that we find out and learn through playing are tend to stick with us better and, most importantly, stick with us in the long rum. This is why My Finance Coach, the charitable initiative set up by Allianz, Grey and McKinsey to improve financial literacy among children and young people, has developed a variety of "financial fitness" games which focus on a playful approach to handling money.
Do you have kids? Here are the games!
The "financial fitness" games and the "money planner" show us that thinking about money can be fun
Become financially literate...
What should I bear in mind when I am buying something? How does advertising work? How can I draw up a statement of income and expenses? What is the magic triangle? In collaboration with the Finnish education provider Muuvit, My Finance Coach has designed online games which also happen to reveal a few important tips and tricks about managing money. The "financial fitness" games are available free of charge at www.myfinancecoach.de together with the latest online game, the "money planner".
...and make your wishes come true
Are you still daydreaming about it, or do you already have it? The online "money planner" game helps you make your wishes come true. It is about taking a specific wish and developing a strategy for it so that this wish doesn't stay a wish forever. And of course, there will be many tips and tricks from My Finance Coach along the way. Don't forget: with the help of others, you can get there faster. So share the wish planner on Facebook or Schüler VZ and find yourself some comrades-in-arms!
The "financial fitness" games and the "money planner" show us that thinking about money can be fun. "Mom! Dad! I'm bored" It doesn't have to be that way. Show your children the way into the exciting world of economics and finance. But don't be surprised if they don't ask you "what game should we play now?" anymore. You and your children can find the answer to that question at www.myfinancecoach.de.
