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
Creating a facts and a game about Bitcoin the is suitable for kids is the best thing people could do if they want to influence the new generation to get into Bitcoin as early as possible. This could result for a total increased of the support of price who will used Bitcoin on transaction in a daily basis , investments or trading becasue the kids is somehow the future of a specific country.

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 it is great to teach kids about earning online most especially Bitcoin. Kids has fresher minds with less stress compared to adults so they can adopt new ideas easily and also they are curious in everything. The earlier we teaches them the more the chances of them becoming a successful person someday. It maybe difficult for them to understand but we just need to  give it a try because time is gold. We can slowly give them ideas like let them watch youtube videos or play games related to earning Bitcoins.

Kids growing developing between the ages of 4 and 9, I will create an educational game to earn bitcoin.  I Will teach kids about bitcoin by means of educational bitcoin games like maze, puzzle, bouncing letters, crossword puzzle any bitcoin games that kids have knowledge and earn bitcoin. Kids they have a rich imagination, may have a storing fears and love to play.

In addition to this, kids could also play RPG(Role playing games) that uses bitcoin or has a touch of bitcoin within the game. Kids could get an idea about bitcoin as they play as if it was like in the real life scenario. Though it may not seem to interest them at all at this young age, in a way, introducing them bitcoin can make them knowledgeable which they can use in the future if it still alive.

I will explain to them properly and in the way they can easily understand what I say.
This the best way to teach your kids in any aspect.
1.Help Kids Find a Way To Tell the Truth. The best way to encourage truthfulness in your child is to be a truthful person yourself. ...
2. Insist That Children Make Amends. ...
3. Encourage Them To Take on a Challenge.
4. Teach Them To Think about Others' Feelings. ...
5. Be Generous with Your Affection.

Is it essential to teach kids about Bitcoin ? I think no, they don't need to learn about it in their childhood, maybe after getting some good knowledge from their schools they will be able to understand the blockchain technology and how Bitcoin is working.

Yeah it is not essential and probably they would not listen about it. Kids just tend to play but maybe when they are old enough like 15 years old and they are already interested in earning money rather than playing then may they will listen.

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.
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.

well teaching bit to kids, i think it will not work because kids only have in mind is playing they dont think yet of like this earning money. And bitcoin is not a joke you will lots of words here. bitcoin for me is not for kids but for the individual who is at the right age or in the age where they can make things seriously.

I think we don't have to try to find an artistic way to teach kids about bitcoin. While teaching, we can make a relation between pennies and bitcoin so that they can understand much easier. We need to imply that bitcoin is not physical unless you make a paper wallet or metal coin wallet.
yes that is useless and is only effecting their future, i think they should complete their study first and they start learning about bitcoin.

Kids should not be engage on it yet since their too young to put their mind on money, your right to funish their studies or if they needed money really thats the only time to teach them step by step and with guidance.
That's right, kids will be kids and bitcoin could be boring for them, they are not serious yet and they are still in the stage where they need to have fun to enjoy their childhood. Time will come, let us wait for that, otherwise we are just wasting our time for teaching kids who are uninterested.
And its not good to open their mind in these thing at a very young age. They should enjoy playing outside, video game or more. If they show interest in bitcoin that is when you should teach your kids about it. They will easily learn it, because kids nowadays can understand and learn everythinh if they have interest and as long as they enjoy what they are doin.

I agree. Once they are taught about bitcoin, they will have to deal with money and finances - such as I have when I first learned about bitcoin. Kids shouldn't deal with that, they should just enjoy playing games while they can. They won't be able to understand it anyway nor will it be much use to them. Their parents could invest on Bitcoin for them already at an early age because it is an investment.

Perhaps at a mature age such as 18 or at college then they should be taught about Bitcoin.

But the study is must so it will complete study the you teach I'm., he wants to study so leaving it not good for the kit. One kit uses the bitcoin it can not contrstat in the study so kit complete the study then you will analyze hmm. Kit is the future of the country doing it spoiler kit life. Sandy is the most for the kit. He knows what he learns. It just happy life doesn't put it on the kit.

It is easy you just have to make it very simple and have them understand what money is. Remember it is just a ledger and a way to keep track of debt. Bitcoin is the first universal immutable public ledger.

There are a lot of possibilities to teach kids about bitcoin you can do that though games because a lot of kids play games like steam they play a game and gain free bitcoins that way they can buy more games with that bitcoins this way they will learn something and try bitcoins later for something else.

Games is the best choice to really bring bitcoin to the kids. I'm not familiar with steam though but I have heard that its quite popular so I guess it will be nice if we can inject it on kids playing it. I have kids myself and they are very inclined to technology. But I don't know what will be the proper approach. I was thinking of discussing it with them directly without any qualms. Have a sit down discussions with them and in front of the laptop, explain in a layman's term what bitcoin is. And later we will go into technical. What you guys think? Do you think this is right approach? Or should I use other ways to deal with it?

Steam is more like a platform where you can download different games and a lot of them are amazing but not free. Steam accepts bitcoin for payment for their games, but I don't think that works vice versa. Listen here, if you're going to make your kids earn money by making them play a game, well I'm going to tell you now that you are not going to succeed. A lot of gamers are already in MMORPG. They grind or hunt items and then later on sell it to other people in exchange of actual money or bitcoin. One thing is that a lot of people are already doing it and your kid is probably not going to be the best player in that game at all. Because 1, he is still a kid and he has to go to school, socialize, etc. Gamers out there have no life and just sit in front of their computer playing 24/7.

My advise? I think that you should not turn your kid into a money-making machine. They are just.. kids.

Basing from my own personal childhood, i like to do things with other people. I do agree with the other posts that game is the way to go and incorporating that to my own experience I would say another way to go is role playing. Imagine a group of kids with their own ledgers trading fun items with each other. I guess that's one way to make them understand the decentralization part.

Is it really possible to teach kids about bitcoin? Me, when I was a kid, all I love to do is just to play, hang outside our house, be with by friends or cousins, practice dancing, review my notes "when needed". I do not how to surf on the internet by that time , well I am not sure if internet exist on that time. Yes, today almost all kid know how to surf on the internet, youtube, twitter, etc. But we can't still hide the fact that kids at their age are most prone to play. I don't think either thay they will be interested in this kind of thing.
