Don鈥檛 Forget 多宝游戏下载鈥檚 Newest Resource: The Reality Fair Toolkit
The 多宝游戏下载 has recently created The Guide to Organizing Reality Fairs 鈥 an interactive tool to teach young people how to balance a future budget. Participants experience what it is like to have an account at a financial institution, decide how to use their money, obtain a loan, manage debt, and more.
The 多宝游戏下载 guide is a comprehensive resource for organizing a three-hour reality fair for youth. It will help organizers plan an event in their community by providing checklists, timelines, and sample communications for planning a successful fair. The guide also includes resources that support the fair itself, such as participant profiles and booth worksheets.
For youth, a reality fair can be an eye-opening, exciting, and fun way to build financial knowledge and skills.
Banks often collaborate with schools or community groups to conduct these simulations. Check our guide for our helpful tools.
