Classic MoonJar Award Winning SAVE SPEND SHARE Educational Tin Toy Bank with Passbook| Moneybox for Children 3+ Years | Teaches Responsible Money Management & Financial Skills

We're doing the "spend-save-share" allowance thing with our nine year old daughter, so I was looking for a bank that would make that simpler. I was a little hesitant to purchase this because it seemed on the smallish size and a little pricey, but it's been a GREAT bank. The bank itself is translucent and slides out of the sleeve it arrives in, so you can see the money that is inside and how it builds up. It holds both change and paper money.The three parts of the bank come apart, so your child can bring the "save" part with her to the bank or bring the "share" part with her to local orgnizations (we volunteer at a local animal shelter, so she brings the little "share" section of the bank with her to the shelter and puts the money into the donation box), etc.It also comes with a little bank book, so your kids can input the money as it comes and goes.All in all, I think this is a great introduction to actual banking, as well as a great way to watch money grow over time. Very neat, and great quality.

Works great for my 6 year old who already is starting to understand needing to divide his allowance between spending now, saving for later, and gifts for others. I’d say it’s unlikely this would be successful for kids younger than that (stick with one little bank that helps them just save)

What a fantastic gift for a child! I gave each grandchild one of these banks and some dollar bills so the child could decide what to spend, what to save, and what to share. A lifetime of learning!

This product is great, great value and amazing tool to support financial literacy. My kid loves it.- it's a little hard to open each area/lid- wish three compartments were magnetic instead of rubber banded together, but we can probably hack it.

SUCH A GREAT INVESTMENT! I bought two of these wonderful Moonjars, one for each of the kids (6&8) . It's been such a game changer around our house. They are excited about saving, spending and sharing their allowance, as well as all the fun ideas of how they want things to go when each section gets full. Definitely a great learning tool while teaching children about the responsibilities of money!

Great for teaching kids about money. Although does not work great for my kids when they have constant access to them because they rearrange the money. I like that we can take down one canister at a time to limit the 'distraction' potential. Kids are ages 7 and 4.Update after 2 years: I'm ordering one for my now 4 year old. Seems to be a good age to start using the bank and keeping allowance. The rubber bands do not hold up for two years (what rubber bands do?), but any old rubber band that fits seems to do. We have plenty laying around from school paintings and grocery produce. Also, we have had other banks that were 3 attached compartments, and this has worked way better for us - it's hard to just get money out of one compartment without emptying the rest when they are all attached together. The banks sit compactly on a high shelf in the kitchen and are easy to take down when they get their allowance. Then they go back up on the shelf.

I’ve bought four of these now, one for each of my children as they get old enough for an allowance. The three compartments are great for teaching kids that money goes to different purposes. I like the concept of separating the money because it helps younger kids to actually see the money and know where it goes. As in, rather than a birthday check from a relative that goes straight into a savings account, my husband or I cash the check and help the child divide the cash into different portions, then take them to the bank with us when it’s time to make a deposit into their savings account.

I bought this as a gift for a birthday gift for an 8 year old boy. I figured it was time for him to start learning about money: saving spending and sharing. Excellent principles for anyone to learn. This is a great tool.
