Your Money Students - Saving
Watch an example of saving money in the featured video, Your
Money Students- Saving (cdnbankers 2019). "Emily" commits

Saving And Budgeting Activities
Saving money is essential,
but it can also be fun! We Are Teachers is a website that features saving and budgeting activities. For example, listing the difference between needs and wants. And some other creative ways to create a budget.
Teenagers and Saving
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is a government website that includes resources to create a budget. But most importantly, content for youth and young adults to make sound financial decisions through adult supervision, guidance, and feedback.
