Williamsport, Pa. — The James V. Brown Library, in collaboration with Merrill Smith from M&T Bank, is excited to announce a unique financial program designed specifically for preschool-aged children. This initiative aims to introduce young minds to the fundamental concepts of saving and spending in a fun and engaging manner.
The program will feature interactive activities that encourage preschoolers to explore the importance of money management. Through storytelling, games, and hands-on experiences, children will learn how to differentiate between needs and wants, fostering early financial literacy skills. The goal is to equip them with the knowledge that will help shape their attitudes towards money as they grow.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to participate alongside their children, making it a family-friendly event. By instilling these essential skills at a young age, the program hopes to lay the groundwork for responsible financial habits in the future. This initiative reflects a commitment to community education and the importance of preparing children for a successful financial journey.
