The money-smart momentum continues in Ohio šŸ’š

We’re excited to renew our partnership with !

Together, we’re helping families build money-smart habits that last—from a child’s first savings goal to the financial decisions they’ll make as independent adults.

Telhio’s commitment to empower Ohio families comes to life through a team that’s passionate about financial wellness. And the results speak for themselves:

šŸ’µ Three straight quarters of youth account growth
šŸ–„ļø A digital hub connecting families with money-smart resources
šŸ¤ Ongoing collaboration to keep families engaged and learning

We’re grateful for the opportunity to continue this journey with the Telhio team and the families they serve.

Here’s to another year of helping kids ā€œShare and Save and Spend Smart Too!ā€ 🐾

Money-smart kids aren’t raised in a single conversation.

They’re raised through milestones.

🐾 First allowance
šŸŽÆ First savings goal
šŸ’³ First debit card
šŸ—ŗļø First taste of independence

And parents are there for every step.

That’s why we’ve upgraded the parent experience inside The Money Mammals powered by The Art of Allowance.

Our new parent portal provides age and stage guidance to help families navigate the money-smart journey—from early childhood through the teen years.

Because parents don’t need more financial information.

They need to know what comes next.

We’re excited to share this new resource with the credit unions, families and educators we serve!

šŸ‘‡ What’s the next money milestone your child is approaching?

Some partnerships just keep growing. šŸ’š

Fun fact: They’ve been with us for over a decade—starting with The Money Mammals Saving Money Is Fun Kids Club.

And today? We’re still working side-by-side to help kids and families build money-smart habits that last.

Here’s what that looks like in action:

🄳 Celebrating young members with custom birthday postcards
šŸ–„ļø Driving families to digital tools and resources
šŸŽ§ Sharing expert insights through The Art of Allowance Podcast
šŸ¤ Meeting regularly to grow and evolve the program

Here’s to continuing the journey together!

Credit Union Youth Month may be ending … but good money habits don’t. šŸ’š

When kids learn to share, save and spend smart, they’re building skills that last far beyond April.

Because financial confidence isn’t a one-month lesson—it’s something families grow together over time. šŸ§‘ā€šŸ§‘ā€šŸ§’ā€šŸ§’

We’re proud to support money-smart moments all year long.

The hardest part of spending? Waiting! šŸ‘€

Spending is okay—when kids stop and think first.

Learning to spend smart helps kids build confidence and decision-making skills they’ll use for life.

Sometimes the smartest choice is waiting!

šŸ‘‡ What’s something your kids are learning to wait for?

Saving isn’t about money. It’s about moments like this. šŸ’š

One young member set a goal: a SuperVine 3000.

And instead of letting it stay ā€œjust an ideaā€ … the team at brought it to life.

They talked about it. Encouraged her. Built anticipation every step of the way.

So when she finally reached her goal?

They surprised her with it—wrapped, ready and waiting.

She didn’t just learn how to save. She felt what it’s like to achieve something she worked for.

That’s the moment that sticks. That’s the habit that lasts.

šŸ‘‡ What’s a goal your child is working toward right now?

04/15/2026

Why does saving feel so … boring? šŸ˜…

Because most kids (and adults) are taught it the wrong way.

reframes saving as something completely different:

šŸ‘‰ Not a restriction
šŸ‘‰ Not a punishment
šŸ‘‰ But a way to create more options later

Because every dollar you don’t spend right now?

That’s money you’ve just given your future self!

And when kids start to see saving that way … it stops feeling like a ā€œnoā€ and starts feeling like a win.

Kids are more likely to save … when they have a goal they care about. 🤩

Whether it’s something small or something big, saving helps kids learn patience and planning—one choice at a time.

You don’t need a lot of money to be generous. šŸ’š

In fact, sometimes the people with the least … give the most.

CEO Steve Bugg shares something powerful:

šŸ‘‰ Generosity isn’t about how much you have.
šŸ‘‰ It’s about what you choose to do with it.

And when kids see that in action—in their families, communities and credit unions—they learn that giving isn’t extra … it’s part of who we are.

Because the goal isn’t just raising money-smart kids.

It’s raising people who care. 🫶
