Episode Summary

"Economics" doesn't have to be a scary word for kids (or us adults). Dr. Tawni Ferrarini from the Hammond Institute for Free Enterprise discusses their "Common Sense Economics" material they offer schools. Dr. Ferrarini is one of the coauthors of _Common Sense Economics_. It makes financial and economic literacy possible for young children so they can build their own stable financial future and avoid some of the mistakes others make just because we don't know the basics of handling and saving money.
