Sparky's Kids Club
Giving kids the knowledge and tools to develop smart money habits at an early age sets them up for greater financial success later in life. Sparky’s Kids Club rewards kids, ages 5-12, for completing financial education activities or starting smart financial habits.
Here’s how it works:
- Kids receive an age-appropriate activity book filled with financial education activities, and an activity tracker to chart their progress.
- Kids complete financial education activities and record them on the tracking sheet. There is no limit on the number of activities a child can complete.
- Once they’ve completed enough activities to earn a prize, kids can bring their activity tracker into a branch and swap it for a prize and a new activity sheet and start the process over again.
PLUS, Sparky’s Kids Club Newsletter, which kids receive each quarter, is filled with more opportunities to help fill their activity tracker.
