I know that it is not too advisable to teach kids bitcoin,but you can still teach them if you want them to have the idea of bitcoin. I want to share my strategy on how to teach kids bitcoin and you can try it. Especially, those of us that want our kids to know what bitcoin is or have the basic knowledge of bitcoin. If you have a cartoon on bitcoin,you can put it for them to watch and after watching,ask them if they enjoyed it. Tell them that whenever they watch the cartoon, you will give them a reward,and it should be the something that they like most. Maybe candy,ice cream whatever that you know that makes them happy when they eat it,but something easy to afford. Like down here I can buy some chocolates for him. Tell them to watch it every evening or when you think is cool for them. Don't forget to keep to your promise whenever they watch the cartoon.

Are you telling us to treat our kids like dogs that we should give them treats whenever they do a good job. They're kids so lets let them be kids they can always learn about Bitcoin when they become of age that there brains can proceed what they're learning about to enjoy it.

I'm against teaching our children Bitcoin at this early stages of their life that we have to give them Bitcoin cartoons to understand Bitcoin. Bitcoin is money and it is a very important topic that should be learnt with seriousness so our kids should be of age before learning.

When our children are still young, we have to prepare their future for them by investing in Bitcoin for them and when they're older, we can teach them about Bitcoin and handover their investment to them when they're responsible enough to manage their portfolio on their own.

Maybe I also agree with you. we have to introduce it early on and one of the media campaigns like the OP said by watching a short film. if for children the genre is cartoon. But of course we have to accompany and choose good shows according to the age of the child. Yeah. I see that OP is good at reading needs and juxtaposing them with gifts they like too without losing their golden age period, of course. If they are already a teenager, it might be very easy to understand it again.

Because it uses cartoon film media, I assume the age of the child is under 7 years. I don't understand why you guys need to teach bitcoin to such a small kid. They don't understand money, let alone bitcoin and how to use it. What do you expect?

I think you guys don't need to rush, it's better to teach children to read and write, I think it's more useful. Wait until they are at least 15 years old so they can get to know bitcoin, teach them until they are 17 years old, maybe they already understand bitcoin. That's a good age.

There have been many controversial topics about teaching bitcoin to children and many are still stubborn about teaching bitcoin to their children. It's hard to understand.

Yeah, maybe it's just a question they haven't done anything yet, or maybe they don't have kids yet, so they're just imagining it. I don't think young children need to know about bitcoin, it's not something that is important to them and doesn't support their growth.

I must say I don't have kids, but maybe I'll have them at some point. In that case, I'd want them to know about Bitcoin, but just because it would be among the things I find important. It's good to understand how money works and how Bitcoin is different from fiat. They don't need to love or truly admire Bitcoin, but I'd want them to have the general idea.
As for the cartoons, there's a full 20-minute episode of Turtle Twins about Bitcoin which I've watched before, and I think it's a great episode for children. I didn't know about the second one, it's good that there are options. But if kids don't want to watch a cartoon, I wouldn't make them do it, and I probably wouldn't go down the incentive role here. I'd just try something else, something like a game in which they can learn about it. Or wait till they're older, there's no rush.

Can you tell us, how old is your child? Because I think bitcoin will not be necessary for children who are too young. If they're still under 10, they don't even know basic math, then teaching them bitcoin is just a waste of both of their time. You shouldn't force them or try to teach them bitcoin if they don't like it, you need to know what a child needs and what is appropriate for their age.

There have been many controversial topics about teaching bitcoin to children and many are still stubborn about teaching bitcoin to their children. It's hard to understand.

This is a good idea to somewhat get them interested in it while having fun watching it, but again, kids are always kids, and they are not serious about this stuff first as they always want to have fun with you or with themselves, which again, we shouldn't force them to do. Videos are really helpful; even an adult can still watch them and have fun with them. Even before I saw this on social media, I watched it multiple times as I am still a kid at heart.

Maybe I also agree with you. we have to introduce it early on and one of the media campaigns like the OP said by watching a short film. if for children the genre is cartoon. But of course we have to accompany and choose good shows according to the age of the child. Yeah.

I share the same sentiment with others when it comes to kids learning about bitcoin.

However, I think the content could be of some use to adults who are slower when it comes to picking up the concept -- think of it as explain it like I'm five stuff. Cartoons are also not necessarily consumed by kids only.

I've only heard of bitcoin comics, honestly. I didn't know there were cartoon videos, this could be something I'd watch before I sleep. I've added this to my bookrmarks for now.

A good approach is to use a children's cartoon movie about Bitcoin.
When cartoons become a lesson for you and it's not just an ordinary cartoon of course it will be a pretty good cartoon.
\Moreover, information about Bitcoin will be obtained in the cartoon show.

But we also have to accompany them when watching this cartoon, while explaining what the purpose and purpose of the cartoon is.
There will definitely be questions from children when they start watching the cotton.
Then be happy enough to answer them with answers specifically for children.

Don't be too burdensome, if they like it to continue but if they are getting bored then intersperse it with other cartoons.

I also found a channel that discusses crypto and Bitcoin but the host is a child and he explains in his own language with examples that are easy to understand.

There are many methods or videos that can be used to introduce Bitcoin early on and of course in a way that is suitable for children.

I'd like to let them watch any episode of cartoon that tackles with Bitcoin. But to give a reward could be just an option and I wouldn't do it.

It's because there could be some thinking on their young minds that if ever they follow my instruction, they'll receive a reward even if that's too easy and I guess just some parenting thing.

We've got different ways of parenting but the idea is good.

They should enjoy their childhood so we should not prioritise or emphasis on making them aware about bitcoin from the early days only.They can be made familiar to the concept in intersting video type manner but don't need to force it down their minds.Every child has different abilities to learn but it should be for mor then 7-8 years not less then it because they are too small for such financial concepts according to me.

Looking for gigs
I would rather teach my future child about being financially literate first before introducing him or her to Bitcoin that kids can understand.

In my opinion, these educational cartoon videos about Bitcoin are great for newbies and illiterate ones to learn what really is this all about. But to be honest, I feel that this is not an ideal way to start exposing them into Bitcoin early.

A fun way however is to let them play Bitcoin-titled games in either desktop or mobile that would just let them earn “imaginary” and “unreal” BTCs. Just my opinion and insight.

This is where you have to be careful and sensitive depending on the age of your child. If the child is not 18 and above, and by my preference at least 21, I will not expose the child to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. No child should be taught such a risky/easy way to make money in my opinion, it might get into their heads if care is not taken.

And as this could be psychological, instead for them to be facing their education and later a career, they might relax and be busy pursuing crypto since it offers them easy and fast money. And by then, you might not be able to control the situation anymore. Crypto investment should be a passive way of earning, everyone must task themselves into doing something good and build a name for themselves if possible and let crypto dealings be secondary.

I bet that exposing them to crypto would not affect all children, but it will definitely affect a sizeable percentage of them. So, don't let us be careless as parents. If you don't want your children to miss out, invest on their behalf and never tell them until they are so old and mature to possess it. Just like old people do by buying shares for their children and later letting them know in the future.

Your first cartoon choice turtle twin does not have more than 1 videos directly talking about BTC then how will you make your kids watch BTC cartoon daily. I hope you are not going to make them the same video daily.  Cheesy And the other channel you mentioned also have only 1 video of around 22 minutes. Means to say, what will you do after showing them these 2 videos.

You will definitely going to find another BTC cartoon source but this will not create any interest in them. Because sometimes kids like the character they are watching and if you are going to change the cartoon source every time or everyday then they might not select their character and there will be a lack of interest too.

But still i liked your plan, and you should also find some cartoons that could explain how finance is working. Because such things are necessary to known before getting into BTC.

I don't think I need to teach a child to learn bitcoin. Even through cartoons, I don't think it's worth introducing little kids to bitcoin. They have no thoughts about finances and investments. I will let my children to play and watch what they like, I don't want to burden them, let their childhood be happy

Even though I like bitcoin, I also won't force my child to like bitcoin. Maybe I'll introduce bitcoin to my kids when they're 15, but if my kids don't like bitcoin, I don't think I need to force it either. I will let him grow with his will and motivation, let him fly with all the dreams he has

But I'm pretty sure that in the future crypto will be a financial system. So I'm sure even if I don't introduce bitcoin to my kids, they will know about bitcoin and crypto system because the future will implement this technology. I am very sure about this

What are your views on this.Let's discuss.


I would like to ask what is your purpose when you want to teach bitcoin to your children when they are too young? And like you said, you will only teach your kids about bitcoin if they have an idea about bitcoin, so why would you use rewards to make them watch bitcoin cartoons? It's like when my children are anorexic, refusing to eat, I take candy and cartoons as a reward and force them to eat reluctantly. I know I'm forcing them, but it's food, not unnecessary knowledge like bitcoin. Children need to have a childhood playing and doing what they like, they don't need to know about risky investments like bitcoin or any financial knowledge.

All kids must not be good at all things children are filled with emotion and with the interest of what their parents always engaged themselves with, don't be surprised that after making those promised they won't devote interest to watch it.
Apart from that forcing children to learn what they weren't set for would make them not to focused on it even though you made all manner of promises to them they will only ends give you the answer at the moment they watched it and after which it would disappear like what they never planned for themselves. Then there should be some age range where by may likely develop interest to learn anything about bitcoin, age 1 to 5 years can't give you any reasonable answers maybe from 6 years and above may withstand those pressure to study and pay interest to watch any cartoon and google for themselves.

They will make fun of watching it by now but someday, they'll get busy with new stuff and forget about Bitcoin.
There is a right time for them to learn about it, it was technical and that was hard for them to absurd from a young age. There is no wrong about exposing them to crypto space but we can't expect them to have interest. Even though I wanted to teach my kids but I realized that it makes no sense from educating them while their focus is not on this.

Really fun.
I particularly liked Tears of Clowns, the beginning is especially poignant when the anonymous Satoshi tells his Bitcoin son that he is his father and that he must leave him for his own safety.

Nice idea and easy to understand for kids and I think they will enjoy watching it and get useful information about Bitcoin at the same time.

The only problem is that this cartoon series is not available in my local language and it will be difficult for my children to understand it, so I wish it could be translated into several international languages in the future.

The approach of teaching kids about Bitcoin via cartoon might pique kids' interest in Bitcoin but it may not be very effective as educational purposes so you have to find a way to teach them about financial literacy which will help them to understand about bitcoin better.

I would say it depends on their age a lot, if they are old enough to read on their own and understand a book then my first priority will be giving them ideas about the right books to get accurate information about money, system.  Relying solely on cartoons might limit the scope of learning so integrating other interactive and educational activities can complement the cartoon approach and enhance children's understanding.

I understand what you're saying, and I think it's a good idea.

But I still believe that making your kids learn about Bitcoin instead of focusing on their regular studies might not be the best approach. There are some valid points from others about why we shouldn't impose Bitcoin on children.
Stop stressing kids with bitcoin

Also, even if you do teach them about Bitcoin, are you planning to give them wallets to store their own Bitcoin? Maybe we should let kids be kids for now and allow them to enjoy their cartoons until they are older and can better understand Bitcoin.
