How to teach kids about Bitcoin?

[Fireblade]

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

it is important that kids start to learn early some basic economy, at least something about income and expenditure

i heard about a new law for some countries that will make it possible(to teach them basic economy) in schools

Yes your definitely right kids need first to learn the basic economy so they don't have confuseness when they will use bitcoin. Kids need to focus on their learnings at school and some kids don't know how to manage and handle their own money, so it's difficult to teach kids about bitcoin.

In my opinion there' no reason for children to know about bitcoin because children is in the stage of learning and playing. They can't even handle their money so it is difficult to teach about bitcoin. Even if the childrens now are easy to adapt the technologies still they can't manage their money.

I believe that they need to be trained to manage money in the format of the game. So in the future they will have management skills and making money, they will be very grateful for that.

Money management is the right thing to be taught to the kids at the beginning, but very few users get interested towards such activities. Most of the kids have a varied thinking as every child have in its childhood. Better make them understand what is necessary for them and let them pick.

to me i think money management is something else. to me i think children do not need to learn about bitcoin, specially in present time when people are using bitcoin for trading and investment, so  kids do not need to earn about bitcoin trading or investment, they should complete their study first and after that if they want they can learn about bitcoin, specially when bitcoin will become so popular to be use as fiat currency even in our local shops for shopping.

Yes they should focus on their study first and gain experience and enjoy their childhood because we are not in the rush mode for bitcoin to teach kids about it. Kids needs knowledge and experience to become a productive person, so the school will give it to them and not and bitcoin is not for them for their young age.

Educating kids isn't necessary to do, they're just a kid. Were most kids like to play most often, then we shouldn't insist nor force them to take some study about in bitcoin. The only thing we can do only for them, I think lets us show them only the good benefits and features of bitcoin so they will become familiar unto it.

Yes, they must not be forced to study or earn bitcoin, they are kids. And we can't just show them or introduce them bitcoin, I don't think that they will be interested in that topic. They will be just sleep or play while you are telling them what is the features of bitcoin because they can't really use it.

and this is why we only need to introduce bitcoin to our kids by doing playing games because kids maybe attracted with the games that they don't know and it makes them curious to play. but don't let them playing the games too long because they need to enjoy their life too with their friends and who know they can help us to spread about bitcoin with their friends too.

It may not be a problem when you teach your son that bitcoin is like a regular local currency. But I'm not sure they will understand how to use bitcoin?

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?

Kids these days are increasingly smart and have so much more access to things. Games are the way to go, solve puzzles make a few satoshi (very few) and in exchange to these satoshis you unlock more puzzles or get some kind of a virtual reward.
This would enable the thought process that you've got to earn if you want something for yourself, and also keeps them in close vicinity to crypto-currency and the crypto-world.

The millennials today our way on dependent to technology or technically born with the power of technology brought by development of science and computers. Bitcoin as a part of technology the can be used through internet kids today is much aware to used it and to learn on using it. And for me bitcoin is not hard to learn and to used at all because it internet base and if we can see all of the thing surrounding us is develop through the power of internet. So bitcoin is indeed the future currency which kid or the future of the world can used and understand.

Well there will be a time to tell your children about bitcoin. I don't think that it should be taught along with other things that are really necessary for their childhood. If the kid is interested with numbers and economics then I think it's fine to teach them at an early age but in general I don't think it's a good idea and I don't think children would be interested anyway

I think we can tell kids about Bitcoin so that they will not be ignorant when someone talk about it.  We should tell them about bitcoin so that they will knew it is a currency and won't take it for granted.  But the knowledge should stop there since Bitcoin is a complicated stuff that even mature people are having a hard time comprehending the whole of it.

Lol yeah Even elderly people will be a little confused to know and understand bitcoin. I do not think it's appropriate to give the science of bitcoin to small children. Of course they will not understand it

Yeah they will really find it complicated and will surely get confused and won't be interested in knowing bitcoins at that early age so I think we should not waste our time in explaining to kids and wait for the right time and introduce them to bitcoins when they become mature enough.

I tried already to explain to my young cousin but in result, It ended up on nothing, They just love games but they are not interested on studying complicated things such as bitcoin. So figure out that bitcoin is not meant for kids and it might cause to give a bad effect once they soak on gambling which gambling was famous to use.

That depends on the culture and on how matured the kid you are teaching, usually hey have their interest
and bitcoin is boring to them although they can earn because they are not in the stage yet where they need money.

teaching Kids about bitcoin is not necessary you are right at this point. but there is lots of ways to teach kids about bitcoin. just just giving them pressure of hard education.
you can teach your kids with bitcoin related games, and  videos,

No need to pressure kids because they are just kids, just give them time to explore and if they are not interested
then you have to wait for the right time when they will be. It's hard to force kids to learn because they have different focus in life.

[jak3]

i think the idea is pretty good but getting kids intract with bitcoin is really tough stuff. they are more likely or Lesley gonna hate or love bitcoin but most of them are really not gonna understand the core concept of it. we can make some board games or card games or even digital video games so they can get a basic understanding of it and how money work which they are already getting with their faint currency.

[Zazzu]

I will not pressurized my kids to learn about bitcoin at that early stage and I will ask them to have concentrate on studies and have fun in their childhood days instead of getting them into money matters.

That would be a great decision, build the kids educational foundation first to make them more effective during their working years.  Introducing Bitcoin to kids is good but telling them to focus on earning Bitcoin is another thing.  Making them know bitcoin so that they won't be ignorant is a good thing but never force them int Bitcoin because it will greatly affect their education and future.

Might as well not let them touch fiat money at all since gambling is also famous with fiat money. It's even more famous since most people are gambling with fiat in real life casino. The amount of bitcoin gamblers is nothing compared to the amount of gamblers of fiat.

It's possible that the kids are going to gamble with their bitcoins but just because that possibility exists, you should dismiss the huge ideology that they can learn in the bitcoin world. Simply bypassing the government in transactions is a way of thinking that you shouldn't always be controlled by another entity or that it's okay to not follow the traditional way of things.
