Lola Gets Money (Age 4-7)
What if your 4-year-old could learn how to use money wisely — from their very first £5?
Most young children see money as something to spend straight away. They’re rarely taught how to manage it — which can lead to habits of impulse spending, confusion about saving, and little understanding of generosity.
When Lola spends the day with Aunty Moira, a simple trip to the supermarket turns into a powerful life lesson.
After earning £5, Lola is introduced to a simple method: give, save, and spend.
With three jars and a little guidance, Lola learns she doesn’t have to choose just one — she can enjoy her money now, prepare for later, and help others too.
Through relatable moments, gentle teaching, and everyday experiences, children discover how money works in real life.
