Having Fun While Learning With Financial Games For Kids

 

   When it comes to learning, it goes a lot further if you make it fun too, and with Mortgage Calculators long list of Free Financial Video games for kids, you can find just that! They have over 150 online games to play, that teach lessons on debt and money saving, the economy, how to manage a business, and so much more! There are games that appeal to many interests, such as painting, landscaping, real estate, construction, farming, shopping, ect. so every child can find something they like, and will learn something new along the way. 

   They even have games of trade, like Harbor Operator where you can guide ships for them to unload their freight at the port, and then you direct them where they need to go, making sure they do not crash into the other incoming/outgoing boats. You match each ship to their designated color and steer them in the direction to go when it's time to leave. This game is fun and can be sped up or slowed down to fit the players interest.

 

   If your child is into coding, they have an adorable game called Code Panda where you insert the directions for the panda to move on the grid, with new moves becoming available after each level. Once you have the correct directions in place, you click -run- for the panda to reach the bamboo to eat. You can choose which level to start at, each one getting harder to compose but it's enjoyable and challenging all in one. 

   Another interesting game is Twin the Bin, where you have to catch the specific recyclables they tell you to, receiving points for catching each one that is right, and losing points when you catch the wrong thing. There is also Sort the Trash, it's similar to Twin the Bin, going faster with each level, but it tells you what items are and aren't recyclable, which is great to teach children the difference of what is what and where it goes, when they are sorting through their used items in real life. 

   I find myself really enjoying the hidden object games, like the game What's Grandma Hiding. You read along on the conversation with grandma, and other people you chat with, so it's like reading a story as you go, but it also becomes very challenging, trying to find all the objects requested. The different room options you get to choose from to search through, are all so beautifully illustrated and the calming music that plays is so relaxing. 

   You can spend hours of entertainment on this site, no matter your age, there will be a game for you to enjoy! Due to the amount of opportunity and the way each game teaches something new, I think this is an excellent addition to your homeschool curriculum or after school fun. If you're child is going to have screen time, it might as well be with something worthwhile!
