Reviews

""Weinstein founded Earn My Keep, a simple program to teach kids ages four to 12 how to turn their allowance into money-making jobs based on real careers instead of simply taking out the garbage. Kids choose from various careers and are allowed to select their own tasks and deadlines (suggestions provided). When they complete the work, it's payday! All careers have three levels, accommodating the youngest earners up to older children, as well as symbols indicating the topics or skills involved (art, math, manners, money management, etc.). An exciting concept back by research that isn't as home schoolish as it sounds; I'm trying it with my own kids." - School Library Journal, starred review" - Library Journal
"What I like most about Earn It, Learn It is that it is a learning experience that is going to teach values necessary for our children to become productive adults... I think this is a wonderful concept that is much needed for today's youth and I have been utilizing many of the activities as part of our home school curriculum. My kids have enjoyed the age appropriate activities that we have selected though I did not financially compensate them (I am waiting until they are older)." - Simply Stacie
"Love it! And surely moms can relate to the "gimme this...gimme that" syndrome...." - The MomTini Lounge
"The book is packed with great tools to teach your child about the value of money and the value to be responsible of money" - Dad of Divas' Reviews
