Do you know any kids already bored with summer? Know someone who needs some help breaking down basic finance for the kiddos? You’re in luck because today we’re talking kids and money. Joining us today, from the National Bank of Mom, is our new friend Maggie. …and back for another round, from FamZoo, we welcome Bill Dwight. And rounding out our roundtable, from ConnieAlbers.com, we welcome Connie Albers. They’ll talk about many ideas to brighten your summer and help your children grasp money concepts at the same time. It’ll make a better summer for both them AND you.

Don’t have children? We thought about you, too, and invited Kate Ryan from TIAA to join us to share tips for grandparents, aunts, uncles, and money savvy friends. We’ll talk about everything from sharing money stories to helping a child start a summer business or save a few dollars.

Of course, we’ll answer a three-oh call for help to the Blooom hotline.  Nicole wants to take her family on a vacation. What are the best places to be consider, and what should she be watching out for?
