April is Financial Literacy Month

National Financial Literacy Month is recognized in the United States in April in an effort to highlight the importance of financial literacy and teach Americans how to establish and maintain healthy financial habits.  The University of Minnesota Extension believes that children can learn some of these lessons while they are still young.

They currently have a display at the library about teaching your kids about money just by reading books together.  Pick up a bibliography and other information at the library or learn how to enhance your children's financial literacy through children's books by visiting:
