Teaching kids about bitcoin is just like teaching them how to eat properly. It's either you are going to show them how to eat properly or teach them how to spoon feed. In literally speaking with bitcoin, just show them how bitcoin really works as an online currency and curiosity will just come out to their mind and they are the one who will discover things about it.
But teaching them how to eat and teaching them about bitcoin are two different and far away methods from each other teaching to eat just involve simple and normal methods but teaching bitcoin involve to teach them about the technology and terminology involved in bitcoin for which normal education is compulsory about which you may know that how much struggle and time it require.

This article doesn't talk about bitcoin but it got me thinking how to get kinds interested in bitcoin within the context of appropriate money management lessons. Think of we could teach kinds about it. The growth, the adoption, the inflation and retraction. The allure of the "internet money".

...what other ideas come to mind?
Teaching kids with bitcoin is really hard for them to understand things with bitcoin first if you are going to ask them if they really interested to learn about bitcoin currencies but if there minds is not yet fully developed then they like thinking that bitcoin is a fun games and they can really lose money at the end.
Why would we teach our kids in bitcoin when it does not help them at all, I think bitcoin is only for matured people as we know how to do it right when we transact online and we consider this as investment, kids have no job therefore they have no money to buy bitcoins.
well to teach about Bitcoin to the children is not a bad idea . but in my opinion we should always make them only such type of curious things interestable .
i mean we should only about the mechanism that hoq does bitcoin work, nit how the bitcoin is working to earn money .

i am agree with this, as long as we only teach about bitcoin and not about how to play gambling, then i think its safe for them and while they learn about bitcon, we can always beside on them so if something happen or they want to ask, we can give the right answer for them so there will no miss perception about bitcoin.

yeah i think kids nowadays have a lot more important things to learn and know about than bitcoin. though as you've said it would be better to teach them how to be responsible with their money at an early stage of their lives. bitcoin's concept would be a bit too complicated for kids so i think there's a right time to make them aware of bitcoin

When i have to teach my kids about bitcoin, at first I have allow
my kids to watch any videos about bitcoin. Any videos that could
understand how to earn bitcoin, how to process bitcoin. By allowing
them to watch videos could really help my kids in anyway.
Well if you are really a parent then you would have known by now that kids would lack interest about watching those kinds of video. Also kids are not the proper audience to be introduced to bitcoin as they are still young to be doing other things besides school and having fun. I would wait for them to grow up maybe at 13 years of age when they know how to handle money.

Actually it's a bit easy to teach kids about bitcoin, because it's same like teaching kids about money. The important is tell the kids that bitcoin same as money works, just tell the kids about and how is bitcoin works, don't tell them how to earn bitcoins.
That's right, you need to tell children that Bitcoin is a kind of money. When the child grows up, it will be possible to talk about the benefits of such currency in more detail

You can certainly argue that bitcoin as fiat money in general, but you can not tell a small child about how the bitcoin itself, of course it will make them dizzy, and they will not understand it

maybe i will teach my kids to do faucet like play games with bitcoin reward and i will explain step by step what is bitcoin, how to get it, and what we gonna do with our bitcoin. i think we can teach kid by doing some play but don't teach them for playing gambling.

This is a great idea on how you are going to teach kids with bitcoin and for sure they are going to enjoy that. And make some other competition , so if you are teaching 2-3 kids make some tournament for them whoever is going to have the most claimed faucets and highest satoshi's will be rewarded by you. And that is going to make them learn more about bitcoins and encourage.
Yes, that is a good idea but in addition, you can just ask a kid to purchase an item or pay for service online using bitcoin payments, in the process of making that payment the kid will earn alot about bitcoin.
Usually kids ask so many questions, when we are giving them some practical approach, surely they will come up with questions, so they will learn many things on bitcoin at end.
I would not gamble to make my kids learn about bitcoin as most of the transaction now that kids can do mostly relate to gaming and when there's gaming there's always a gambling, really hard to trust the online world for your minor kids.

Mostly all kids play games and they are aware of the coins ( points ) that they can earn and know where to use.
So a good idea would be to make some games for kids and make the points they earn into satoshi.

if we teach the kids about the bitcoin than probably they may enter in the bitcoin gambling line .
Gambling is a game and can make us get money instantly , kids can be easily addicted to gambling because most of kids likes games . And in kids stage it's good to make play and study together and don't force him to earn money (that's a parent task) .

I would say it's best to teach them the same way you teach them about money. Except for the bits about security. Cheesy
Kids are able to pick things up quickly anyway, so it shouldn't be too hard.
I do not think that you should really teach your kids about Bitcoin unless you really see that they are interested and ask you about it all the time.
But if they do not care then let them focus on sports and school because those two are more important.
I guess that is fine if you are going to teach about bitcoins so that their knowledge are going to become more on the technology.

But don't ever teach them on how to earn bitcoins, because when they try to learn how to earn bitcoins while they are still kids, possibly that their earnings are going to be used in gambling.

And even worst if they are really curious and they are able to search about deep web, maybe they are going to be involved.
You are right with your intention but it should be in the proper time. Kids will not comprehend what is bitcoin and since bitcoin are also use for illegal activities, that is not good for kids to learn.. We should wait the right time to tell them and when they are not minors anymore that is the right time.

I think that the best way to teach those kids about bitcoin is by giving them information about it bit by bit because to much information and they will have no clue about what it is.
Just let them look a bit when you are busy with bitcoin and then try to explain it.

The kids should be taught first about difference between paper currency and bitcoin.They should be taught how bitcoin works and its importance in future.They should be first introduced to earning bitcoin by Ptc sites.
If kids learned on how to do this bitcoin maybe their future might destroy i think kids really don't needs to teach like this teeaching them on how to earn money online is a wrong move right if they start earning money they probably think that they don't need to go in school and learn something for tthere future.
