Back-to-school shopping isn’t just about supplies and sneakers—it’s one of the best real-world opportunities to teach your kids how to manage money with wisdom and faith.
In this refreshed replay of Part 2, we’re picking up where we left off last week to help you keep building strong financial habits in your children through everyday moments. If you’ve ever wondered how to talk with your kids about contentment, giving, or staying focused in a culture of impulse buying, this episode will give you practical steps and biblical truth to guide those conversations.
These aren’t just money lessons—they’re heart lessons. The goal isn’t perfection, it’s faithful progress. So go slow, stay intentional, and let your kids catch you in some wise money moments they’ll remember.
In this episode, John discusses:
How to talk with your kids about contentment during the excitement of shoppingSimple ways to model and explain generosity in everyday situationsInvolving your kids in age-appropriate budgeting and financial decision-makingHelping your kids identify and overcome impulse buying behaviorsBack-to-school shopping is more than a chore—it’s a hands-on, everyday setting to teach your kids contentment, generosity, budgeting, and how to slow down in a world full of impulse buys.When you invite your kids into age-appropriate budgeting, you're helping them grow real confidence with money by letting them plan, make choices, and think through tradeoffs.Give your kids tools to make smarter purchases by helping them plan ahead, name the difference between wants and needs, and spot the ways marketing can influence their decisions.Don’t skip the reflection—after the shopping trip, talk through what worked, what didn’t, and what could change next time. That’s where a lot of the real growth happens.“Whatever financial behavior you want to see in your child, let them see you do it over and over again.”
