Topic: Explain Bitcoin to a toddler (Read 292 times)
What's the reason why you want to explain bitcoin to a toddler when they can't even understand about fiat?. In case you didn't know, toddler is 1-3 years old and you expect everyone to explain about bitcoin to a toddler and you even compared a toddler between an adult about knowledge when it's clearly the adult who has more knowledge than a toddler. You should just wait until that child is old enough to understand how it works.
- If I was to explain Bitcoin to a toddler I will simply say Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency use for making payment (transaction) just like the regular money (fiat) they have ever seen.
The only difference is it doesn't have a physical form (element ). Boom I should be expecting a question like what is cryptocurrency? because obviously it will sound like jagons in their ears. Then I will break it down into two fractions
- crypto
- Currency
[/list]
Then what response you can expect to them? Do you think toddlers would digest those information you teach to them?.
Also for doing that its like you are forcing those kids to learn how to earn money at early stage of their lives and its like forcing them to do child labor. Maybe better let them play since at that age for sure they don't know how to figure out everything. Also exposing them on gadgets at early age may bring bad health result. That's why I don't encourage young people to earning schemes. They have lot of things to explore and I want them to be out of any financial pressure or any brainwashing related to that matter.
Maybe try to check yourself if you are doing the right thing since its like you are expecting to much to earn money since you expect to much from toddlers.
I thought op is referring to newbies as crypto toddler not until I understood op is actually talking about little children 1_3 years lol. Teaching bitcoin to kids below some certain age needs tender lesson like anime characters or story books, children below 3 or above can’t understand basic lesson talk more of crypto. in as much as most people will not support the idea i don’t see why people should deprive little ones from beneficial knowledge although there’s an age range a child can easily understand without creating much examples it’s obvious maturity is needed for anyone to understand gradually but, starting early is also good. Bitcoin knowledge is not a must rather it’s acquired freely that’s why we should avoid pressure when educating anyone about crypto newbies, toddler, adults.

I don't see any reason why you should be explaining what crypto is to a toddler, a toddler is a child between 1/3 years so what do they want to use the information you're about to give them, to do?
What you're about to do is classified under financial education and such education shouldn't be taught to children that can't comprehend what you're saying.
A 3 years old hasn't even understand life yet and still figuring out how to do some early basic things. What a toddler should be doing is learning how to walk, seat, eat and speak frequently to the understanding of their parents.
Children should be allowed to have normal childhood before they turn out to be too different and become a problem to the society. When it's time for you to teach you children financially education, you'll know. It's usually when they start showing concerns by asking you questions.

Though maybe there is a difference perspective you looking at it and we are getting it wrong, maybe you should try and explain more but if it the wait you explained it on your post I don't think there is a way you can explain bitcoin to a toddler. It never going to work.

We shouldn't underestimate the Genzs. I.mean the wisdom and knowledge this kids manifest at early age is so mind blowing. Don't be shocked that a child of two already knows what money is. And at the same time their brain is so sharp that the easy take note of every discussion you make as an adult
There brain We know children of nowadays grabs things easily than they used to back in the days and their wisdom and understanding is on a whole different level now but i don’t think it is ideal to introduce bitcoin to a toddler. Of course we want adopters but introducing it to a toddler is not ideal, they have more important things to be worried about as it is the stage where they learn things, they have other basic things to learn about. They might grab a few things but i don’t think it will make a difference if they don’t understand it properly, there is no need to rush them into learning about bitcoin why not just let them grow a little before teaching it to them. Little children taking note of every discussion is different from learning about bitcoin, how do you even want to communicate it with them? Like that’s crazy cause they can barely talk properly. I advise you just let them grow up a bit.
As between Bitcoin and Baby shark, the choice will be obvious.
Please don't mention that song, I don't want to have it stuck in my head again. 
And why not explain bitcoin while baby is still in? Coz when baby gets out, it can already make an investment lolz.
Yeah, it would probably have the same effect as if explaining it to a toddler as its proven that baby can hear while they are in their mom's stomach. 
Any point of explaining such thing to toddler? As between Bitcoin and Baby shark, the choice will be obvious. And why not explain bitcoin while baby is still in? Coz when baby gets out, it can already make an investment lolz.

Re: Explain Bitcoin to a toddler
The idea alone is just stupid. My apologies for my word but explaining a very complex thing like Bitcoin to people who has an age of around 1-3 is just pure stupidity.Is this how people think right now? We know that at that stage, the brain of these toddlers isn't intended for these kinds of thing. It would be understandable if they're aged 10 or more, but 1–3-year-old kiddos? Please don't do this.
If there's some users out there that has kids that are very young, please, please don't do this to them. I know the feeling of excitement of teaching Bitcoin and crypto to them, but don't do it at this early. Let them play at least. Let these kids be kids and let them do what they want to do. Toddlers will not understand anything about Bitcoin or crypto in general, and this is just an absurd thing to do.
I will bring their imagination towards picturing having a game on their tablet and earning some coins for every progress the make while playing the game. Then make them imagine spending those coins earned on real items
Funny... You are using telegram games for meme coins to illustrate bitcoin and cryptocurrency to a toddler 
Will you tell me a toddler is has knowledgeable as you are? There was no point criticising if you knew you won't add value to the post
A toddler (age group 1 to 3) won't understand day-to-day life as they are just beginning. I do not understand what is the point of making him/her understand Bitcoin. My question again to you is why do you want a toddler to understand Bitcoin? What is the point of creating such a topic that does not make any sense?
You can use many ways you can. But I don't think they can understand with our explanation. They don't know about money and all they want is just play. There are nothing wrong to explain about crypto and currency but you can not force them to understand what you say. Just let it flows like that until they are grow up and ready to receives your explanation. That will be better for them and you can prepare what they need to knows about crypto.
If you think you can teach them about crypto by playing, that will be good especially if they can understand. But if they don't care, you should accepts it and you can do other things. But I don't have any idea of what will I explain to my toddler about crypto

I don't think toddlers which is usually between the age of 1-3 years old will be able to comprehend enough concerning Bitcoin. There is no importance of talking about Bitcoin to a toddler, even if you do what will be the response, they hardly will concentrate and likely their brains are not yet matured to understand anything concerned investment.
If i were you, i would rather concentrate on developing their skill level, i believe their is time for everything and as soon their skills are being developed and making quite as much then talking to them about investment for the future is even, by then they would have been of good age to understand why they should invest in Bitcoin but not when they are yet toddlers who can barely speak for themselves.

Why would you even try explain bitcoin to a toddler, and do you think that toddlers are capable of understanding the fiat money in the first place, let alone cryptocurrency? By the way, toddler is a very small child, usually from 1-3 years old. In case you didn't know.
I guess that too much exaggerated that you will teach the use of the bitcoin to a toddler they don't get what you are saying at all, instead they will just focus with the things near to them and let them be casual what they need too, I guess OP you are trying to steal to them their childhood let them be what they are, we know some of us have a regrets with the things we made like late investment with the bitcoin I guess without a proper think toddler doesn't understand that at all, at least a teenager possible.
Crypto will probably be the last thing I would explain to a toddler. So much things to explore and experience, so why would I load him with knowledge and skills toddler would use no sooner than in 10-15 years? Teenager I think is the entry age for getting familiar with crypto. Every time I see topic about explaining and teaching crypto to a very young generation, I start to feel like parents are selfish people. Because the main goal of that activity imho is to create a situation when kid starts to earn and become rich as early as possible, so parents would have more time to use his wealth. Kids should enjoy life, childhood. Because money come and go, they can be earned anytime when they are adults, but there is no time machine to get back to childhood and get all missed childish opportunities.
As a parent, I wonder why I should explain Bitcoin to my children. Children do not know the value of money. They have different values and different interests. Why not let children live their childhood to the fullest, making every effort so that they do not think about how much their toys, food, and sweets cost? Being completely under the protection of parents is part of the future of a normal mentally healthy person who, when he grows up, will be able to quickly understand the entire financial system since his psyche has not been touched by the problems of adults.
Let them enjoy for a while its not about always money.
I am pretty sure it took me more than 10 years of living to understand what Money is and its value. Up to that point, Money is just paper that gives you toys and sweets. Giving them a hint or two or providing simple answers to their questions is something, but trying to make a toddler understand Money is in my opinion way too much. 
Honestly isnt this too much? As a parent would you introduced crypto to that early age? Toddler is something like dont have much knowledges about a lot of things so for me this isnt good. How about teach them good manners and how to enjoy their life as a toddler like others, theres time for financial awareness and that isnt during toddler stage of any child.
Let them enjoy for a while its not about always money.
