What the AI looks for in Kids' Money Banks
- Easy emptying
- Choose a bank with a removable plug or opening rather than one you have to break. Kids learn more when they can count their money out and deposit it again.
- Material
- Prefer sturdy plastic or wood for young children, and ceramic only for display. Ceramic banks shatter when knocked off a shelf, and the shards are a hazard.
- Visibility
- A clear body or window lets a child see their savings grow. Seeing progress is the main motivator for young savers.
- Coin compatibility
- Digital counting banks must be set for your country's coins. Counting mechanisms miscount or jam on coins they weren't designed for.
Brands that matter
- Money Savvy Generation: Maker of the four-chamber Money Savvy Pig.
What to avoid
- Sealed banks that have to be broken to get money out
- Electronic banks that show counted totals but jam often
- Banks with small detachable parts for toddlers
