If you want to teach them then you should prepare a short explanation about bitcoin because the kids are easy to get bored and with that limitations they can easily turn from a listener into a hater for bitcoin because they don't want long explanations and boring lessons because they are still not ready  for the introduction for this kind of money.

Teaching kids about Bitcoin is hard but it's a lot easier when they understand the functions of money and the role of money on a global scale. Once they get money is just a ledger and a way to keep track of debt it'll be easier to get BTC.
Kids should be left to enjoy their childhood in the first place, when a child eventually learns the value of money that is when i think the kid is ready to learn about bitcoins and other investment opportunities out there in the world.

What is the need of teaching kids about Bitcoin, what we need to teach them is how economy works, basic principles of the law of supply and demand. And they will realize the use of bitcoin.

Made some interesting animation video for kids, they will be happy to watch!
like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5JGQXCTe3c&feature=iv&src_vid=Lx9zgZCMqXE&annotation_id=annotation_2038933421


Thank you for this is kinda helpful to any kids who've been wanting to learn btc and someday will become future of this world's economy. Although I believe on my part that children of dangerous act within this stake or whatever part of the btc who does not seriously act must not learn.

I think, kids should not be taught bitcoin first. because, it can affect its growth. even dewasapun people in my country are still many who don't understand very well what is bitcoin.

The best way to teach kids about bitcoin is by saying that they can earn their own pocket money on their own by investing something which they have ,say it like a 100$ and they can get profit out of their investment by earning more from what they have invested and just tell them that they will no longer have to depend on parents or anyone from the family for pocket money if they are ready to save their pocket money atleast once and start working with btc .Now a days it not necessary for the adults to teach the kids about the tech world as kids these days are so advanced they even do software coding on their own with the help of Internet. So just need to give a rough idea about btc to kids rest they will learn on their own.

But without the necessary things (i.e. Internet, smartphone) these kids will not learn how to use it so.. Some things are still needed to be provided by the parents for them to learn techy stuffs.

It got me wondering, how did your kid even get $100. Like, I didn't even get that amount of money until I got into teenage stage. Kids are sooo impatient and I don't think that exchanging their money into bitcoins is a good idea. They might end up panic selling or plainly get bored and choose to sell for a lower amount. Kids want to buy all sorts of things and they want it right away. If you give them $100 today, probably it's already spent tomorrow.

Nowadays it's truly not necessary for adults to teach kids how to use the computer or the smartphone. On the other hand, they should be guided on the type of things that they should be browsing. You don't want your kid to become a porn addict or something just because he stumbled upon some advertisement about it. While I do agree that kids knows how to do this and that, I don't think kids know how to code their own program.

Well, kids being exposed at a young age on the Internet should have a strict guidance. So I suggest if you wanna teach your kids to invest or to learn how to manage finances, start teaching them by real money. Because of them being innocent, they are prone to scam.

take some assest from a know paper game, like cards, etc. And tell him that each card is now worth 1/100 his ocket money. He can trade it with family, exchanging, is time writing the experimental trade.
Yeah it is the best thing about the bitcoin and the money will get more and more high because the value and the importance of the things is now high it is very easy to teach all the children and the income of the bitcoin will be high if our new generation e bitcoin is the other thing that is now existing and the value of the bitcoin will be more than this so they should learn all the digital skills.

maybe you dont need teach bitcoin to kids because as i know that kids is like to play, and learn a new thing (context: child growth) and maybe you can teach bitcoin into teenager because in teenager we start to leave their childish and start to thinking like older people

I think children should be told that there are also options of crypto currency other than fiat currency and it can be used for different purposes on different platforms. They should be aware of what is going on regarding finance and bitcoin must be involved in it.

well kids like to play, so something that can bring together bitcoin and gaming

like puzzle that when solved reveal a private key for example

it is important that kids start to learn early some basic economy, at least something about income and expenditure

i heard about a new law for some countries that will make it possible(to teach them basic economy) in schools



Economics is one of the subjects that kids should really put an effort to study with. Maybe kids in middle school and high school should learn even a little knowledge for it. But for college it is highly recommended to teach/ learn and study this subject. This subject economics makes people aware on what's happening in our country. Through the growth of our economy and how it circulates.

Todays kids are smart enough to know anything. But bitcoin like other CryptoCurrency still mystery for most of them. You can  teach kids about bitcoin by creating an app for them because today's kids love to use smart phone application. The should be a mixture of illustrations and text explanation in plain English which could help them to understand about bitcoin. You can teach bitcoin by manking video animation because kids love to watch animation video.you can teach them by create a book of design and colourful pictures which probably make feels them easier about bitcoin

Kids these days can very well  learn and adapt what's happening around them especially in electronic related things.
its always better to share knowledge about electronic currency, the bitcoin and other physical currency according to their age.
we have to make them involve in certain Bitcoin transactions also highlight the risk factors, We can take help of you tube videos.

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?

Well in my own point of view, i think its too early to teach them about bitcoin. Yet, this would be great if learned earlier. Bitcoin should be taught slowly. Until it becomes easy to be taught as the children grow. We should have the perfect timing to teach kids about bitcoin. We should let them prepare and get ready to teaching them soon. And for sure they will become more succesful if they learn it already.

I am having two daughters they are watching me every now and then doing something in laptop I didn't told them what am I doing they ask me one day and I explained to them elder one didn't show any interest the younger one asked what why how it works so it is good that at the age of 10 they know at least what is bitcoin. I believe they will take over bitcoin during their college that means with in 8 years lot of youngster will handle bitcoin with positive attitude. Let us introduce bitcoin to kids they analyze by themelves.

it is not that easy to teach kids about what is bitcoin but we can teach them how the bitcoin works first don't give them all the details about bitcoin it will take time but for sure they will knew about it and for sure they will be interested about it.
Kids will not able to understand the complicated things on bitcoin.  Probably if we make parable it will be helpful, even some adult people are not understand yet, although you tell about bitcoin to them everyday. We must keep telling them about the progress of bitcoin.

yes, its so hard for kids to teach about bitcoin, actually i already tried it to my cousin which is minor of age, and its so hard for him to understant about it, maybe because his mind is not that too open minded. well, i know the right time will come when he finally be able to understand it.
