All about Saving Money
Saving means setting aside some of your money instead of spending it all straight away. Saving helps you buy something you really want later, and it gives you a safety net for unexpected costs. Even a small amount added each week grows over time.
A good way to start is to split your pocket money into spending, saving and sharing. Keep your savings in a jar, a piggy bank or a savings account if an adult can help you open one. Set a goal, such as a new book, and track how close you are getting.
