Moonjar is a multi-award winning bank for children three years and older, but with a twist ~ it jump starts the money conversation and helps children learn to Save, Spend and Share. Moonjar’s mission is to help children and families learn three basic principles of money management; Save, Spend and Share. As children learn to use their money in purposeful ways, they gain a heightened sense of accomplishment and self-responsibility. Moonjar’s core values offer K-5 Financial Literacy as a crucial life skill. Learning the value of time and work as it relates to meeting wants and needs creates self-responsible individuals who become partners in the growth and well being of their community.
Moonjar has three separate canisters for children to deposit coins and bills.
- One canister is for saving towards a goal,
- the second is for spending on something they want without nagging mom and dad,
- and the third is for sharing with the dog, a friend, relatives, a charity, or whatever is important.
