Five Reasons Why Personalised Money Boxes Make Great Gift for Children

Posted by The Engraved Gifts Company on September 4th, 2015

The earlier you teach a child to save money, the better that child will be in handling his or her finances. Teaching and encouraging children to save can be a valuable lesson they can take into their adulthood. The good news is that you don’t have to wait long—you can teach them to save money as soon as they start learning how to count. One of the ways to encourage children to save is by giving them personalised money boxes in designs that appeal to them. These five reasons should show you why personalised money boxes are excellent gifts for children:

1. Personalised money boxes can teach the importance of saving.

Children should learn the value of saving a portion of their allowance for future expenses or to be able to buy something they want on their own. They have to learn the importance of being frugal early on in their lives so that they can carry these qualities into adulthood.

2. Money boxes encourage budgeting.

When kids set aside a portion of their allowance for savings, you are teaching them how to budget their money and prioritise what’s important to them. Knowing how to develop and stick to a budget is important and best learned earlier in life. Children who know how a budget works tend to be more responsible with their finances and how they spend their money as adults.

3. These gifts are something that is made especially for them.

Personalised money boxes are made with the child in mind. They are typically engraved with the name or initial, but you can also make it even more special by having it engraved with a message that encourages him or her to save money. The child will appreciate it your gift and cherish it for life.

4. Money boxes come in many different styles.

Personalised silver plated money boxes come in a wide variety of designs for boys and girls. Diggers, trains, cars, pirate ships, fire engines, sports cars, tractors, and boats are designs that are popular with boys. Castle towers and carousels are popular with girls. There are unisex money boxes, too, like the ones made in the likeness of insects and animals, ABC cubes, and the conventional piggy bank.

5. You can take advantage of free engraving.

Look for a reputable engraved gifts specialist online. They usually provide free engraving on all personalised money boxes, so you can save money when you need to buy several gifts.
