8 Effective Ways to Raise Frugal Kids

Just read this online article about raising kids to be financially responsible. I have to thank my mother because she kind of taught us to be frugal by following these guidelines.

8 Effective Ways to Raise Frugal Kids
1. Turn off the media (tv)
2. Limit electronic games (handheld and computer)
3. Talk with your loved ones about your values
4. Socialize with like-minded families
5. Have fun e.g. camping, cooking, baking, sewing etc.
6. Show what you can do - be a role model
7. Instill a sense of service - volunteer in community services
8. Enjoy a sense of purpose - pursue purposeful activities
