Teaching kids to earn, save and give are all important, fundamental money lessons. But so is learning to spend wisely, and one the best teachers of that lesson can be to let kids experience first hand, in a kid-friendly environment of course, the sting of impulse spending and buyers remorse, as well as the fulfillment of saving up and buying something of value that brings longer lasting enjoyment and pleasure.
