Financial literacy is what most of us growing up were never really taught by our parents. And we need to change that in the next generation. We want our kids to be financially intelligent growing up. At what age should a child be taught financial literacy?
 
I think parents can teach their kid to save money when s(he) is at a very young age such as 5 or 6 years old. For financial literacy which may include concepts of investment, maintaining a balance of income and expenses, a 12-year-old kid can start learning these.
 
I think parents should start as early as possible. Once the child will be able to understand the value of money, teaching him or her financial literacy is very paramount. I think 12 years is too long because children of these days tends to be more smart than before.
 
Personally i think they should be taught as early as possible. The moment they can start comprehending things, parents should start teaching them, so it can become part of them.
 
Any child that is up to five years old should start being taught how to save money in a savings box. That's the basic financial literacy.
Yes, this develop healthy financial habits early exposure can shape their understanding of money and help them avoid common financial pitfalls later

Children should be taught financial literacy from childhood. They will learn to spend money judiciously and save money at the same time.
