The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the first distributed timestamping system.

At whatever age you would start paying an allowance in exchange for chores.  The coolest thing about paying an allowance in BTC would be that the kids could learn the value of saving since the value of their BTC may increase the longer they hold it.  You never know, some kids may save their accrued BTC's throughout their life until adulthood and the next thing you know BOOM they're rich when it hits the moon Smiley

That's a good suggestion I think I may get my kids in via an allowance. but I'll 50/50 it so they can spend their cash but save their btc if they choose to - I will keep onto their wallet so they cant go throwing it away on primedice. 

To everyone else, I'd tell my kids about bitcoin as early as possible - didn't someone make a childrens book about bitcoin already? = well its an ebook anyway:  http://www.amazon.com/Bitcoin-Beginner-Kids-Trilogy-Inspirational-ebook/dp/B00GCMFWSA

I think when they are familiar with purchasing goods in dollars and dominate them properly. Then introduce another coin to them, that is Bitcoin. They will ask a lot questions about it. You try to explain it to them steps by steps. However, I think they will command the whole principles as they grows up.

Its better not introducing kids to bitcoin on a very early age because they might now know about security and other thing like how it works,at lease not until the age while he understand the usage of money and know its importance

I think, it is better to introduce them when young, at the age of 15-17 years,
cause that age, children already to invest  Smiley

may not be difficult to tell the children about bitcoin if they were used and understood about the internet,
also already know about e-currencies like PayPal, Perfect Money, etc
so that's when we can tell about bitcoin, or even they know themselves, because the internet is so vast information.

I think the best age is between 7-10, when the children should have awareness of money including traditional money. Smiley

For me i think the best time to introduce kids to BTC is when one notice they have developed a saving culture and have a wide understanding of computers.

What's the best age to introduce your kids to Bitcoin?
Soon all babies will be required to have an RFID chip to track their location and Bitcoin balance; Welcome to the Brave New World.   Shocked
^^Hopefully, this will not happen, "how are things going" where you live...?

Life is a gamble my friend, if you aren't taking risks (good calculated risks are recommended) then you'll never do or become anything.  Almost every single inventor took a big risk to make it big, many failed, but without trying you can never get there Smiley

Probably at 16-18 years Bitcoins are a serious thing, it's not easy or a thing "for childs".
I think that to understand bitcoin the guy have to be mature . It may be dangerous Sad

After thinking about this a little bit I think I will probably wait until they are in the mid-teenage years until you teach them the importance of security measures. It is true that people will try to steal your bitcoin if they have the opportunity, however this is really not something you want to be teaching your innocent child.

At the same time, I would look out for their maturity. The maturity of one boy could be different from another boy. I would teach them the concept of money, stocks, and investing because introducing them to bitcoin.
