Some Money

Children will join Ed and Bunny on an adventure to learn all about money in this storybook about making saving and spending choices and keeping money safe

This story will help children to learn about managing risks and emotions associated with money, as they read about the choices Ed and Bunny make about what they do with their earnings.

Our Ed and Bunny stories are aimed at children who are beginning to understand financial concepts, whilst the Super Stories series are aimed at children who are looking to build on existing financial knowledge.

All storybooks are available as eBooks or you can request your free copies through your dashboard on the Money Heroes platform.

Delivery ideas for SEND Educators:

Teach children financial capability skills by using the storybook to talk about using money in fun and interactive ways...

1. Decisions, decisions, decisions

After reading the story, ask children which character made the best saving choices and why.

2. Share it

Children love to share their new knowledge, so ask children to choose their favourite character and in small groups, act out how that character might feel about money in the story.

3. Drawing for fun

Ask children to tell a partner where they keep their money safe and why. Together, ask them to draw a poster, showing places where money can be kept safe.

Possible adaptations:

• Read and discuss the story in smaller, more manageable chunks, by splitting it into separate sessions.

• Encourage children to role-play characters and the story, to embed their learning.
