Things to remember:

Enjoy planning how to spend your money. It is fun to think about what you are going to buy. Can you spot any bargains or special offers?

Share your spending power! If you buy sweets let your friends have some, if you have a toy or game let them play with you. It is more fun that keeping things to yourself. Try out saving - can you make more money by using a savings account!

Do not complain when you run out of pocket money - it is your job to spend it.

The adults in your house earn or receive the money. It is their's! They share it with you. Don't pester them for things they may not be able to afford. Spend wisely and let everyone see how you can manage your money.

Always talk when discussing your pocket money, don't shout or moan and complain - it's a treat - there is no law that says you must get pocket money!!
