Cha-Ching ® 


Picture
Cha-Ching is a financial literacy and responsibility programme that instils sound financial habits and promotes financial responsibility in children.

Each Cha-Ching video uses the best practices in learning theory to help children learn the above four concepts: songs as mnemonics; repetition as the key to mastery; age-appropriate, relevant, contextualised real-life scenarios; narratives as a hook and motivation and strategies that empower children to say, “I know what to do now!”
 
With children, what they see is often what they do; and the premise of this series is that what children most often see people doing is spending! Therefore, the four core money management concepts are presented:
 
1.     Earn: Money does not grow on trees. Money has to be earned before you can save, spend or donate it.
2.     Save: Saving is an important habit. You should be sure you have enough money before you buy something, and save for a rainy day.,. Just in case!
3.     Spend: To be money-smart, children need to learn how to differentiate between needs and wants and to spend wisely.
4.      Donate: There are always people who have less than us and it is important to share.

The goals of Cha Ching are:
  • Discover four choices in using money: Earn, Save, Spend and Donate
  • Be aware of cost of different items (everything cost money)
  • Understand the benefits of savings (why do we save).
  • Understand difference between needs and wants
  • Understand various kinds of donation
