The Great Piggy Bank Race

There is a new website and online game sponsored by T. Rowe Price and Disney to help kids learn about saving and investing money. It's called The Great Piggy Bank Adventure. According to the website, "The Great Piggy Bank Adventure online is a virtual board game that educates kids and adults on the importance of wise financial planning. Kids will learn about important financial concepts and use these lessons to complete the game and achieve their dream goals. While The Great Piggy Bank Adventure is designed for kids from ages 8 to 14, fun-loving adults are encouraged to play with their kids and get involved in their financial education."
My 11 year old and my 15 year old played this game down in EPCOT this summer and had a blast. I've played the online version a couple of times myself. It is a lot of fun and is educational at the same time. Play the game and see what your kids learn.
