Plan Like Panda Pula. A Story About Bamboo Forest

Did you know that children begin to form the primary models of their financial behavior as early as ages 3-7? That's why it's so important to teach them the key principles of financial literacy at a young age. Creative lessons through fairy tales, where the main characters overcome difficulties by following these principles, can make such lessons effective.

The series "Financial Literacy Lessons for the Littlest Ones" consists of three rhymed tales, each focusing on an important financial lesson. In the first book, which you are holding, the pandas almost went without food because they only ate bamboo and did not plant it, and one day it nearly ran out in the forest. Only thanks to Pula, an unusual panda with a "reversed" coloration, were they able to survive. Pula always followed a crucial principle: she planted more bamboo than she ate, which means she spent less than she earned.

The story of Panda Pula will introduce children to the basic principle of a financially literate person: you need to spend less than you earn.
