| Core Curriculum Short on time or resources? No problem! Biz Kid$ has pulled 5 essential episodes together to create our Core Curriculum Package, available in both English and Spanish. |
America ’s current economic crisis underscores the need for individuals and families to
understand how to manage their financial assets. School districts and individual schools are
encouraged to take a leadership role in providing economic education to youth, helping them
to build a solid financial future.
• In an ever more volatile economy Biz Kid$ empowers young people, giving them the
information and tools they need to get a firm foothold in the financial world, make solid plans
and have some fun along the way.
• In an era where credit, bad spending habits and disastrous investment strategies are being
aggressively marketed to younger and younger people, Biz Kid$ shows how to use credit
wisely and illustrates the importance of saving, budgeting, investing and giving back to the
community.
• At a time when only 10 percent of youth in America are graduating from high school with any
kind of instruction in personal finance, Biz Kid$ helps kids understand the importance of
saving and starting good financial habits early. In fact, of the many young people who now
drop out of college, more than half leave because of bankruptcy—not bad grades.
