Review: Fantastic Financial Literacy Resource for Homeschooling! - As a homeschooling parent, I'm always looking for resources that are both practical and engaging—and the Evan-Moor Financial Literacy Workbook checks all the boxes. I used this as part of our social studies and life skills curriculum, and it’s been a huge success! The workbook introduces real-world money concepts like budgeting, saving, banking, and understanding paychecks in a clear, age-appropriate way. The scenarios are realistic and easy for kids to relate to, which really helps the lessons stick. I also love how it encourages critical thinking and responsible decision-making, not just rote memorization. The layout is clean and easy to follow, with just the right amount of writing and problem-solving. It works well for independent study, but we've also used some of the pages as discussion starters during family learning time. I highly recommend this for any homeschool family looking to build practical life skills! It’s an excellent tool for preparing kids to be financially smart and confident! Review: Great Financial lit book!! - Love this void for my students! It had information they will definitely use in real life!!
