Youth Financial Education
When should you start talking to kids about money? The sooner the better. As an engaged community partner, we strive to educate, inspire, and motivate through our financial education programming.
A bright financial future starts today
Little minds are like sponges, absorbing all the information around them. So why not start teaching them about the value of money long before they have their first job as a teenager? Early financial education is the key to setting your children and/or students on the path to success.
Financial Education programming from Commonwealth Credit Union is all about money – how to manage, use, and save it to your advantage. Commonwealth Credit Union is here to help by providing insight and tools that empower kids to make good choices along their journey.
My First Nest Egg is a FREE, powerful resource for educators! Designed for students ages 3–12, the platform brings financial concepts to life through games, puzzles, and goal‑setting activities that fit naturally into PK–8 instruction.
Educators can use My First Nest Egg to introduce foundational money skills, reinforce classroom lessons, and create engaging conversations around earning, saving, and responsible decision‑making. Its flexible design makes it easy to integrate into existing curriculum or use as a standalone enrichment tool, giving you a simple way to support early financial literacy in any learning environment.
