Kids and Money!

Sue Patterson

Are you unsure how to help your kids understand about money?

Maybe you'd like to help them find ways to earn money of their own?

Colleen Salchow spoke with the Creating Confidence membership group about all of this and more!

  • How can your kids earn money?
  • How can they learn how to manage the money they have?
  • How does a budget really work?
  • How can we help our kids deal with money - especially if we're not that great at it ourselves?


Within the coaching group, in addition to all the regular benefits of membership, we have monthly workshops, book clubs, or guest speakers. And because everyone has been asking for help - we have someone coming to talk with us about money!

If you feel anxious, frustrated or confused about your finances Colleen will show us how to make a budget, get organized, and develop a plan towards financial peace.

AND

She even has a program designed for tweens and teens so they can learn about budgeting and getting organized with handling money responsibly!

Colleen helps families develop individualized goals and a zero based budget that will lead to healthy financial habits. You can reach her through her website: Salchow Coaching

Radical unschooling is often misunderstood as extreme, hands-off parenting or a rejection of learning altogether. In reality, radical unschooling is about going to the root of how children learn best — through connection, trust, and real life. It's not limited to academics - it's about ALL Learning. This post explains what radical unschooling actually means, what it doesn’t, and why it’s far more intentional than most people assume.
