Talking to your children about money with Sir Chris Hoy
03/16/21 • 23 min
Financial education is not just about numeracy and being able to count coins and notes (though that’s certainly a part of it!), but recognising and responding to feelings and emotions around money. Having an open dialogue with children about money from an early age helps to ensure that they build healthy relationships with their money as they grow.
Olympic cyclist, award winning children’s author and dad of two, Sir Chris Hoy talks to our host, Jonathan Hart about why he felt it was so important to introduce financial education to his young children. Throughout the episode we discuss the value of storytelling to boost children’s motivation in a topic, and Sir Chris’s experience of engaging with the Money Heroes activities at home.

Learning about money through stories
Children learn best when they are engaged in activities they enjoy. That’s why we worked with children’s author Matt Carr, and Scholastic, leading publisher of books for children, to create the brand new Money Heroes storybook, Ed and Bunny Earn Some Money.
This episode, hosted by Jonathan Hart, aims to empower confidence in opening up conversations about money with your children. We talk about engaging children in this topic, and developing their money management skills through interactive storytelling with our guest, author Matt Carr.

The role money plays in our lives with Dame Sarah Storey
As adults, we know how significant a role money plays in our lives and the wider community: it’s rare to have a day go past when we don’t need to think about money. Addressing this with children helps them to understand where money comes from, and how we manage where it needs to go – from groceries and utilities to tax and national insurance.
In this episode we welcome Dame Sarah Storey. The Paralympic cyclist, former swimmer and mum of two joins our host, Jonathan Hart to discuss her approach to financial education at home. Dame Sarah talks about how she makes learning about money fun, to keep her children engaged and help them understand how money works and the role it plays in our lives.
