WHY KIDZ ECONOMY EXISTS
School doesn't teach
kids about money. We
do.
Financial literacy is one of the most important life
skills a young person can develop — and one of the
least taught. By the time students reach adulthood,
most have never learned how money actually works.
Kidz Economy changes that, starting at age 5.
Our programs don't lecture. They simulate. Students
run real businesses, manage real portfolios, and make real financial decisions — with Kidz Cash on the line every single lesson.
Learning Through Experience
Every Kidz Economy program is built on one principle: the
concept must emerge from what students do, not from what
the instructor says. Simulations teach more than slides ever could.
Characters Students React To
From Stella Kong's chaotic brilliance to MAX's data-obsessed
predictions, our characters create emotional investment that
makes financial concepts genuinely memorable.
Built for International Schools
Designed specifically for the international school environment
— EAL-friendly, experiential, and built around the cognitive
development of Years 1–6 students.
THREE WAYS TO LEARN
Choose the format
that fits your school.
Kidz Economy runs in three formats — each designed for a different school context and level of commitment. All three deliver the same
experiential, simulation-based approach.
Our programs don't lecture. They simulate. Students run real businesses, manage real portfolios, and make real financial decisions — with Kidz Cash on the line every single lesson.

WHAT SCHOOLS SAY
The results speak
for themselves.
"Our students were debating revenue versus profit during lunch break by Week 2. Kidz Economy creates the kin of genuine intellectual curiosity we try
to build across the whole school."
School Leadership
Deputy Head · International School, Singapore
"My daughter started a savings jar the
week after C.O.I.N. Club began. She
calculated how much interest she'd earn by her birthday. She's eleven. This
program changed how she thinks about money."

"I've taught for twelve years and I've
never seen students this engaged. The
characters keep them hooked — and the concepts genuinely stick long after the program ends."
