3 Ways You Can Earn MoneyAre you saving up for something special you want to buy? No matter what age you are, everyone needs to save money for something. Your parents might save money for things like sending you to college or taking the family on a vacation. Older brothers or sisters might save money for things like a new phone or new car. But how can you make money to save? Here are some ideas that can help:

1. Household ChoresNobody likes doing chores, but it’s probably the easiest way for you to start earning money. Talk to your parents, and tell them you want to save up some money. Ask them if you can do some extra chores, such as collecting everyone’s laundry, washing the counters after dinner or feeding your pet.

2. Host a lemonade standAsk your mom or dad to help you host a lemonade stand. You could even bake some cookies or brownies and sell them along with the lemonade.

3. Make pet toysEveryone loves their pets, so why not make some pet toys and sell them to family members and friends? You could make simple strings for cats, or get some rope from the hardware store and tie it into knots for dogs.

Do you have any other ideas? Talk to your parents, and see what you can do to earn money and start saving!

Happy earth Day!

Earth Day is April 22nd, and one simple thing you can do to give

back to the earth is to stop using bottled water or drinks. Instead, fill

up a reusable bottle.

Why? It takes 450 years for a plastic water bottle to biodegrade, and only about 10% of plastic bottles

are actually recycled. so that means 90% of the water bottles end up in landfills and will still be there

450 years from now. so help save the earth and avoid using plastic

bottles when you can!

Money & Banking 101!

so You earned some money... now What?Hopefully your answer to that question is to take it to the bank! But do you know why? There are a few reasons, but let’s break it down.

The bank keeps your money safe.

What happens if you lose your piggy bank? Or leave money in your pocket or lose it at school? If you deposit your money into your Friendly’s Club account at the bank, you never have to worry about losing it.

The bank pays you interest.

As a thank you for keeping your money in the bank, you’ll earn interest - an amount that gets added to your account automatically. so instead of leaving your money at home, at the bank you can earn even more money.

The bank can help your savings grow.

sometimes it helps to put your money in the bank so you don’t spend it. Why? If you have easy access to your money at home, you may spend a little here and a little there, and then before you know it, it’s all gone.
