Money Boxes
It’s a funny sort of thing. Kids can spend months (or just an hour) earnestly filling up a small money box with pocket change. Just to open up the little cap and shake it all out for one roll of bubble gum or a toy they want to have. You see it happen all the time, and it’s endlessly charming. But the real charm is in the little container itself, and how it can actually help them develop lifelong lessons about the power of saving and delayed gratification.
Money boxes don’t really work for people who never got to use one as a child. The idea is absolutely precious for kids, but the older anyone gets the less attractive these get. And that’s precisely why it’s important that every child gets to develop a healthy relationship with saving money as soon as they’re ready to learn about it. Because there comes a time when a piggy bank stops being cute or charming, and you have to be there to see it through. That’s where you come in, and why you need a timeless little piece of this rich tradition for your home or as a gift for someone you care about.
There are many ways to go about this, but nothing’s quite as fun as Money Box Labrador Pups (except maybe the sound of loose coins rattling against each other as you shake your savings up). These are a great way to keep money safe and secure with a, wide slot at the back for easy access. And who could possibly forget about the adorable little pups that guard your savings closely? So much for ‘who let the dogs out’.
If you’re looking for something that’s more up to snuff, then a Money Box Meerkat Cricketer is sure to keep your savings safe, secure, and in a standing position until its time comes. Perfect as a gift for anyone who’s a fan of cricket, animals, or of saving up for a rainy day. This is a sturdy container made from resin that looks great as a part of your regular home decor, and is even better as a unique gift for someone who likes to stand out from the crowd.
It’s a bit strange how captivating the ideas of fantasy and magic can be for kids. They buy into these whimsical stories, and they’re drawn to gifts and products themed around them. Money Box Mermaid Tail Blue is built to help children safely store their pocket change until they’re ready to cash in on the rewards of their hard work and saving. There are beautiful metallic blue scales that make up most of this container, with a slot at the top for coins and notes, and a tail at the bottom that makes for a stunning decor piece for children’s rooms, living rooms, or pretty much anywhere else in the home.
If you’ve got someone who’s ready to save up, but also likes to live on the edge, then the Money Box Meerkat Life Saver is pretty close to perfect for them. This is built on the idea of a meerkat lifeguard who’s equipped with everything they need to keep your savings safe and well-guarded for as long as you need them there. Every resin figure is hand-painted with great attention to detail and unique finishes that make every piece a true one-of-one.
It’s fairly easy to see why any one of these money boxes would make a great gift. Especially if you’re shopping for someone who has an active social life and likes being the life of the party. Any one of these money boxes would make for a great addition to a home as a conversation piece (or even as the conversation starter). And if you’re lucky enough, you can even pair these with other money boxes in this collection to create unique collections and show them off proudly in your home.
Because it’s never too late (or early) to start saving up, putting your best foot forward, and building positive relationships with money. That’s exactly why it’s important to have easy, accessible ways to let children (and older people) save up as they please, no matter what age group they may be in, or what interests they have. A world where people are allowed to have more fun with saving money is one that will see more people actually doing it.
