Why We Started Wealthy Whiz Kids™

As homeschool parents and educators, we noticed something missing in traditional education: children were learning math, reading, and science, but not how money actually works in real life.

We saw families working hard, yet feeling unprepared to talk about budgeting, saving, or long-term planning with their children. We also saw kids curious about money, asking big questions, and wanting responsibility, but lacking age-appropriate guidance.

So we created Wealthy Whiz Kids™ to bridge that gap.

Our goal was simple: make financial literacy clear, engaging, and family-centered. We wanted lessons that spark conversation at the kitchen table, build confidence instead of fear, and teach children that money is a tool; one that can be used wisely, generously, and intentionally.
