It's easier to teach kids about bitcoin when they reach their optimal age for learning (Ages 5-10) ; when they do already know how to count, read and talk. By then it will just be a matter of time for them to be experts in the field. Whether it is on trading, investments or icos either way it will be a great skill to master at a young age.

I think, as well as adults, teenagers can read books and everything that is on the Internet, if they are interested, for example, if they are interested in IT

First of all very interesting topic. I got attracted immediately when I read it because it is so nice idea that getting to know in early life stage would be so exciting and kids could learn many things. There are schools who have started teaching the logics for students as early as fifth grade student. This is to make sure that there brain evolves to code and apply the logical thinking very profoundly. The idea is working just perfect. But having bitcoin on the syllabus could evolve the kids in very different way. They will think very futuristic and might come up with great ideas for the future and bitcoin implementation. Sounds cool. I'm not sure what can be done but we can just add it to the syllabus and they will take it as normal lesson and will think it's part of study. They will learn and evolve too.

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?
If we could teach bitcoin to kids espically to our children, it is good for us not only for our kids or children. They can start earning bitcoin in a young age and will make or generate more money in the future. They will also have enough knowledge before they turn 18 so that they can sustain their daily needs by themselves.

Teaching kids about such a futurist ideology should be like teaching them how to deal with real life , how to have manners or how to acknowledge basic life skills . Lessons should be given of this matter and Electronic money should be instored in kids minds because talking to them of cryptos is very alike talking to them about their future and anticipate a certain event that is certain to happen in the future . It is like preparing a team of football players and forming them for upcoming games .

In fact, in Japan they teach kids manners at first and not any academic related stuffs. Basic lief skills and manners are very much needed once you grow up. Even simply how to act during dinner is a necessary knowledge. You can easily spot someone who had good parents and those who didn't by simply looking at how they look and how they act. Sure, you can teach your kids bitcoin but be sure that he is not missing out on what a regular child should experience.

Since you said you are certain that bitcoin will actually be a thing in the future, then why don't you let your child learn it at a different age? Why disrupt his childhood when he is going to eventually learn about it at some point in his life? Nevertheless, his knowledge about bitcoin will not be used until bitcoin actually becomes a thing. It will only be a relevant knowledge to him at that point or at the point that he wants to work and earn bitcoins.

Kids are incredibly smart, and they will learn this technology as they grow, much easier than earlier generations. Cryptos will play a huge role in our youths future.

If you really want to learn it's easy for him to learn that if the child does not know what you are teaching you do not really have a hard time educating him about bitcoin as I think all the kids are now learning computer so we will not have trouble explaining to them about bitcoin ....

I dont like to teach my kids about this. I want them to enjoieng their childhood, i want them happy , it is ok that i am the want to learn about this for now. But someday i well teach them how to earn more money.
But why now or in their childhood since they can use it to buy the things that they want or just try it and if they got their attention its much better for them to know how to make money and how to manage it .

I think that their is a huge limitations to what you can teach kids about bitcoin. Many adults still find it very hard to understand bitcoin. Bitcoin education should start from Teen age

If you want to teach kids about Bitcoin, then make sure you make it fun as kids require things to be fun in order to learn well (usually, at least).

The fun side of it is the claiming to faucets, for sure kids will have fun on this. I have read before that he downloaded an app where he can win some satoshi's after playing the game. And guess what, he is letting his niece to play on his smartphone with that app and he gets paid every time that kid wins, I forgot the name of the app and later on that kid started to be curious on what is that those satoshi's word popping out after the game.

The problem with faucets is they do not make a lot for Bitcoin. Even if you work full-time 24/7 you would not make enough Bitcoin to make it profitable even if Bitcoin would go up to $1,000,000 you would not make enough to make it worthwhile. Therefore I think it is better to work for fiat and buy Bitcoin using those earnings. And kids could cut grass, shovel snow or do other such jobs to earn money and buy Bitcoin.

Yes, that's the thing about faucets if you'll treat it as your source of income, you'll just get tired on it and forget it that you are into faucets. There's nothing wrong if you'll start to teach your kids with faucets but later on they'll understand on that bitcoin is a real money and they can buy their toys and other things if they'll work hard for it. Curiosity will eventually come to them and they can learn alone.

Bitcoin is only for adult not for kids. Bitcoins isn't for children playing, It takes a lot of time and mind to learn about bitcoins i don't think a kid can learn Investing, trading, gambling and some other things. The kids should focus on kids games and there is no need to be greedy for the parents to ask the kids to play bitcoin games or faucets etc.

What age exactly? I wouldn't really try before high school.
I think kid who is old enough to understand the concept of currency. Kids playing games on cellphones or playing cardboard games like monopoly do understand buy, selling and barter concepts. When playing games there are lot of upgrades for which payments are required. and games like monopoly which are literally build on effective economics helps kids to understand the currency in better way.
Once kids are familiar with the concept then starting with the digital payments, plastic money and then crypto currencies will make it interesting and easy to follow.

Sir teaching Bitcoin to young individuals is unprofessional. They are not so knowledgeable about this things and they must focus on their study rather than this. The best age to start bitcoining is hen they rich their teenage years so that they are more wise in dealing with crypto world.
I must say that you are very much right but I think there is hardly any harm of telling the kids about Bitcoin. Yes, there is no need to tell each and everything to them but at least they should have a fair idea of what Bitcoin actually is, so that this may help them in their practical lives in a better way.

All-ages cryptocurrency education is likely to be a safer bet in the apps. One of the great things about kids when it comes to Bitcoin is that they have no psychological barriers to purely digital money. Although most financial transactions today are executed electronically, many adults still like to believe their money is “real,” by which they mean something they can touch and hold. When they complete a VISA transaction online, they still entertain the subconscious notion that physical dollars are beingbitcoin for kids transferred from their bank to the merchant’s bank. So the digital nature of Bitcoin presents a mental hurdle for them.

Introducing faucet to child will not interest them, faucet is very boring and often filled with adult content, I do not like to teach faucet to child, I think the best way is we download video about bitcoin then they will be interested.

Yeah faucets are just a waste of time even they will be taught on that way of earning in bitcoin but I guess it will be a bad start for those kids that wants to know more about bitcoin. It's better if you are going to teach them about wallets first, web wallets, desktop wallets and hardware wallets. This is the beginning phase of what they need to do, this is the container of our bitcoins and if they don't have this, they can't have their coins.

Perhaps a great way to teach kids about bitcoin is through a little book which resembles like a story book, complete with images that are colorful. That would be great and then teach them about saving or investing at present that would let them buy the things they want in the future. They will for sure be excited about it.
