I think that it is very important to teach kids about how to manage their own money, when they grow up. And bitcoin is a very good gateway to do exactly that, since bitcoin is without a central bank. They'll learn more about the economy.

I think the best way to teach kids about bitcoin is to give their allowances in BTC. Then they'll figure out how the whole system works.

You could also tell them about this forum, and that they could earn some pocket money by enrolling in signature campaigns... Oh, wait, somebody has probably already told them, given how terribly the quality of posts degraded recently, lol

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?

I guess if you really want a child to get involved with BTC you should let them experiment with it themselves. Don't give them bitcoins. Instead, don't give them allowances for the week and let them earn bitcoins themselves.

I think that's a good solution.

to teach kids, or anyone, about bitcoin, you should probably first explain them about money.

and about how the current fiat system and banking system is a giant scam.
how can you say that the system is in the bank and and the fiat system is a giant scam? means all people on this earth have been deceived by a system of fiat?

You can start by teaching them how claim on faucets and making a bitcoin wallet..every year teach them some ways to earn bitcoin,,for now teach them the faucets,download some app or games that gives bitcoin.. next year introduce to them signature campaign,and when already have ideas in bitcoin,put them in trading ,never introduce gambling and hyip on them.

Well I think you should teach them about Bitcoin by letting them play games. Its good for kids, they have fun, earn pennies its better than them playing games and they don't earn money.  Grin

you don't need to tell kids and give them an idea about bitcoin they are not supposed to earn some profit online they would wanted to go outside and play with their mates . maybe they can discover bitcoin at the right time not this time do not take their time let them enjoy their life as a kids .
Depends on what you mean when you are saying "kids". I think OP means those who can learn something already, like from 6 to 9 y.o. There were great proposals in this thread like games which teach you while you are playing.

I think someone could create a game about it , a game composed of story telling which as they progress they get to know more about different angles of bitcoin world which could be useful when they grew up Smiley
That is true kids nowadays are really very smart they are so updated when it comes to technology and modernization. They can even operate in their own at any internet shops and I was so amazed because during my childhood I am just playing outside on the street and that all. Kids are very good when it comes to games and a lot of it. Sometimes when I am looking at what they are doing it amaze me and thinking I don’t know that. Bitcoin as a part of game can be done by them most especially when it is very fun.

I do not think that you should teach kids about Bitcoin I now that it is a good thing but I think that it is more important if they would focus on school and other hobbies were they get to meet real people.

That's not easy, child's logic is not the same as ours.. IMO, as I observe my son, I bought him a piggy bank(just the plastic one)...I told him that everytime I give him a coin, or if he found one under the sofa, he must put it there and if it is full, I will bought him a new toy car, so everytime I give him a coin, he will immediately look for his piggy bank and insert the coin.. The thing is, you should inspire a kid first, tell them that bitcoin is what you use to bought them toys..Telling kids negative things would just confuse them and might probably grow without trusting...

If you want to kill childhood for your kins you can teach them but i think it's not for kids, let them live free and when they grow you will teach them, that's what i am thinking about it.

Teaching a woman itself very hard, in such scenario disturbing childhood activities and making them learn about bitcoin is not needed for a growing kid.
small child still could not accept learning about bitcoin even if you tell anything about bitcoin to a small child. I'm sure they will not understand even bored with what you're talking about
if you impose a small child to understand about bitcoin then you will kill him slowly

yes i'm with you,kids should not know bitcoin,they just playing with any tablet and other toys,its not right time for them to knowing about bitcoin,and too early for know about everythingrelated money.
so true. although teaches money and bitcoin in the video is good, but it will seize the childhood of the most fun for him, and it would make him unhappy

Maybe it would be nice if you are buying some toys about Bitcoin than they learn also earlier about it and that is perfect for the Bitcoin itself.
So you are also going to promote it more for it and kids will get to know about it and that would be perfect for the future.

yeah do not force children to know deeply about bitcoin. children are not ready for a heavy thing.
they still want to play? not to try to explore bitcoin man
Don't insist a kid to learn about bitcoin, give him some interesting games related to bitcoin to play also show him some bitcoin toys and bitcoin logos, once he get some interest in all these he automatically comes to know about bitcoin.
