This article doesn't talk about bitcoin but it got me thinking how to get kinds interested in bitcoin within the context of appropriate money management lessons. Think of we could teach kinds about it. The growth, the adoption, the inflation and retraction. The allure of the "internet money".

...what other ideas come to mind?

I don't think it's necessary to teach bitcoin to kids already but if the world would allow bitcoin to be legalized, it should be a priority to make children know and understand how bitcoin works. We should not let them be too innocent while the world is changing. It can also bring them great convenience somehow in terms on how they hold their money and keep it.

For me its better to teach chidren as early about doing business and what is all about. Because children is very good in remembering an important ideas especially now we engages  in these new technology which is  the bitcoin. Its very important to us  teach our kids in the field of the bitcoin in order for them to have knowledge about bitcoin.

Whether we teach kids or not, it is certain that bitcoin is the future and the future are our kids.

Their is no stopping bitcoin. Sooner or later, cryptocurrency will be taught in schools even in primary levels.

The Kids are too curious to know what is inside the engine if you let them. It can only be good if we teach them the introduction and elementary understanding of Bitcoin aspects alone, but hide how to generate or earn from Bitcoin so that they will not be distracted if they get to know how to be earning on line, but until they are matured.

Not all kids are curious to know this kind of transaction but others really do. They wanted to know anything about bitcoin. They wanted to learn something new. Its hard to teach bitcoin in schools because there are other student that really not interested about this. It is not compulsory to teach this in schools but I guess it will young people to learn such great things in the future.

I think it is easy to teach kids about bitcoin, cryptocurrency or digital money. In this world right now, the kids encounter cashless payment as it is. I think in a few years time, cash will be archaic to kids and we will have a hard time explaining why we need cash.

Our kids will be thinking that everything including money and even assets can be digitized.. hence bitcoin will be natural to them

Children can not spend time with their parents anymore, and the vast majority of their children spend their time in school. That's why I think children need to learn Bitcoin as gradually.

well kids like to play, so something that can bring together bitcoin and gaming

like puzzle that when solved reveal a private key for example

This is great suggestion! I like the idea of integrating games with learning. Serious formulas and numbers may not be the interest of kids. But basic concepts of money, financial management, and cryptography can be taught to children through games.  This will improve their logic and reasoning thinking.

The children in my family are almost all familiar with Bitcoin, as they received some from one of my elder family members for Christmas a few years back.
Hopefully they all still have it but that's on their parents.

Well, we can teach kids about economics and entrepreneur, not only about bitcoin.you must give them choices of how will they earn money on their own way.it will be biased we only going to teach them about bitcoin. This is just my opinion.

[Xerox101]

first and foremost, Kids now adays are very intelligent in terms of internet or technologies, they can easily teach and trained, we are gonna do is to guide them and give them some tips and notes about bitcoin- then if they were knowledgeable regarding bitcoin next is try them invest in small capital and always guide and look over what they doing.

Teach them well and show to be a good model to them,teach them first about the instruction how to handle bitcoin or how to use bitcoin,be patiently to them and kind,no matter how they do and make mistake dont hesitate and make noise to them,just let them do freely and guide them,it maybe takes a long time to teach but atleast they will learn so far,

it's just simple to teach the kids about bitcoin they can easily learn it as one heart and mind they will teach you there are also children who just do not really end up just want to play games for me that's if it's really decisive that it's easy to learn how to get the bitcoin

It's not a good idea to teach the kids about bitcoin because they will become curious about money and they will have no time in thier studies.

You can teach a kid to be part in bitcoin by convincing him/her to save or invest in bitcoin .Nowadays kids are so curious on how to save a money so you can teach them to do or to be part on it

[wesbrook2]

You can make them watch videos in youtube and you can let them search in the internet to know the informations avout bitcoin

Kids nowadays is more smarter in our newly technologies. I think we should teach them about bitcoin in easiest way. Maybe by creating a slideshow they can watch on how bitcoin is useful in our lives. Or give them a simple explanation on how bitcoin can help their parents in financial by their help in simply answering some questions.

- I do not think it is necessary, to teach the child about the knowledge related to bitcoin is too difficult, even I can say is very headache, children will be difficult to concentrate and care about what we say. I know that children are very curious but they very quickly bored, and Bitcoin is need patience and effort, so it does not fit their age, they need more time to mature and have enough patience, and we should only teach them when they have the excitement

I do not think that they are curious with saving money.  But perhaps if we start right now to teach them then it could get their attentions.  Kids now are distracted by gadgets, games, and the like nowadays.  Maybe if we share to them the importance of bitcoin and saving their money, then they will understand it.  And little by little it will be inculcated in their minds.

Whether we teach kids or not, it is certain that bitcoin is the future and the future are our kids.

Their is no stopping bitcoin. Sooner or later, cryptocurrency will be taught in schools even in primary levels.

Cryptocurrency is something that is too difficult for kids to absorb because it is not like regular subjects. I do not think in the future cryptocurrency can change the whole of this world, when it starts outdated and is restricted to the level of development, meaning that it will end.

Kids nowadays love to play and enjoy simple things as kids that would make them happy. However, it is also necessary to teach them business like bitcoin for the future. But I believe that it would also be hard for them to understand what bitcoin is because even adults are having a hard time understanding the whole concept of it. I think it is better if we'll teach kids about bitcoin at the right time.
