Hi fellow Edders,

Today I wanted to share a wonderful adolescent/childrens book series that focuses on things I think are important: money and freedom/liberty!

Finance Books for Kids

One of the things that's been a lot of fun with our son is our nightly routine of reading some books before bed. A lot of times it's been children's books like Disney and others of that nature, although as he's gotten older he's more interested in different topics now.

Recently though, I was listening to a podcast and I heard about a book series that I had heard of once before but forgot the name. The Tuttle Twins!

The Tuttle Twins series of books is, in my opinion, a remarkable change of pace when it comes to teaching our most precious little ones very important concepts. As you can see from the titles, the books are very wide ranging but sorely needed for children's material in my opinion. The books teach very important things like how government works but in ways that breaks it down for kids to digest instead of the sort of boring stuff that we are able to learn as adults. A big tenet of the books as well is financial and entrepreneurial development!

The book series touches on so many aspects of things that are important for children to have and be exposed to for a good world view. Things like running your own lemonade stand and taking the money you make from it as profit and reinvesting it but in ways that are not overly complicated and easy enough for kids 5 and older to grasp which I found really fascinating. I even learned a thing or two from them! lol

The book series touches on covertly and overtly the importance of parents and children taking charge of and being involved in the educational process for them. Not every place or situation can allow you to homeschool your kids but one of the great things is there are lots of lessons that are had throughout the books that are homeschool based but with kids that were going to traditional school as well. This makes it connect with a larger audience because homeschooling is great but not everyone can do that for many different reasons. There are lots of subtle ways that the parents and characters in the book are taking things and turning them into learning opportunities for the kids and I really enjoyed that aspect of it!

With the book set you also get this little newsletter that they sent out with it. It has a lot of different pieces of information in it but one of the things that I loved was the "history of money" discussion section!

The way they talked about the monetary policies and the disasters that have occurred in America and as a result the world, but adding in different terms so that the kids can grasp it was quite impressive. When I saw Bitcoin in there as well, I was floored! I know this family is definitely one of the more libertarian families when it comes to the content, which resonates with me on many levels, but what they were able to highlight for the kids I think was great.

We finished the final book in the series this evening and I thoroughly enjoyed every one of them! I don't want to ruin the series for those who are interested in it but the company is run by a small family that's trying to change the way many people see the world, after all there is a very significant attempt to push society far to the left (liberal financial and many others [not "liberal" as in Democrat/Republican but spending far more money than is needed, {liberally spending instead of conservatively spending} attempting to create a generation of dependents instead of independents]) on everything so it's refreshing to see a group trying to bring some balance to bring people where so many belong: centrist! We all have our ideas that swing both ways like wanting to take care of those that are less fortunate but also want to make sure our cities are safe and properly policed, ideas on opposite sides of the "spectrum" as it were.

Their website is https://tuttletwins.com/ and I looked up the books for sale on Amazon but wanted to check their site out itself. Turns out you get a better deal buying the 12 book set directly from them which is going to be another post for another day (directed at the Leo community, not Edders!) than you would if you tried to buy the books individually or in chunks on Amazon. I think the book has been translated into dozens of languages and sold hundreds of thousands of copies if not more, throughout the world! I love the reception of that. Plus buying directly from them cuts out the middleman and you support them more, which is another win!

Of final note is of course a disclaimer that I have no affiliation with the Boyack family (the author) and outside of any rewards I receive for talking about it, have no financial ties to this at all! I just found it a wonderful series and one that teaches far different principles in a children's book series than I have ever seen before, which I loved!
