Safari Kids Education - Eagle Programme ©
The Safari Kids Education - Eagle Programme © focuses on the theme of Inspiration, using sound child development principles and theories for teenagers aged between 13-17 years old.
Safari Kids Education acknowledges that you, as a teenager are now free to become inspired to follow your own life path in order to reach your individual potential, talents and abilities. Being inspired, means that you are able to:
- focus,
- organise,
- plan and
- reflect
on how your are directing your life.
One of the greatest misunderstandings about being inspired is that you simply go with the flow and see where it takes you. This statement needs qualification because it's only when you are focused and organised with a plan that you can go with the flow, in the truest sense of the phrase.
You need to put every effort into organisng your life but remember the ultimate organisor is nature so if things don't go according to your plan, then the ability to accept and reflect needs to be implemented. By tapping into and using the Safari Kids Education - Eagle Programme's templates and products, you are enabled to become inspired to follow your life path.

Safari Kids Education - Treasure Trail Programme ©
Once you have made your child or teenager aware of the Safari 3 Step Programme you can download our Safari Kids Education - Budget Sheet © to enable your child or teenager to become more aware of their weekly and monthly income and expenditure habits.
As Zig Zigular says "Money isn't the most important thing in life, but it's reasonably close to oxygen on the "gotta have it" scale."
The Safari Kids Education - Treasure Trail Programme © offers children and teenagers an exceptional and unique opportunity to learn about financial literacy and principles; they can then apply their new financial knowledge and awareness by using our free activity sheets and specifically designed products.
What is the Safari kids Education - Treasure Trail Programme ©
The skill of understanding how to manage money is known as financial literacy. Teaching your child about financial literacy from a practical perspective is one of the most important skills that we can offer them. As Benjamin Franklin says "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest".
The Safari Kids Education - Treasure Trail Programme © is a simple 3 step process that is based on the idea of multiplying by dividing, by using the time honoured principles of:
- Paying yourself first,
- Honouring your debt and
- Prioritising the remainder of your income so you can spend wisely.
Your child or teenager will develop lifelong effective financial management skills as well as an appreciation for the value of money and a wealth consciousness. *Please note there are parents who disagree with giving a weekly allowance to their children, however, some regular weekly allowance is necessary for your child or teenager to receive in order to put the Safari Kids Education - 3 Step Treasure Trail programme © into practice.
The 3 Steps:
- Step 1:
Once you receive your income i.e. pocket money/gifts etc-always pay yourself first! Using approximately 10% divide it into what we call the 3 S's i.e. Sharing, Saving and Seed funds.
- Sharing fund enables you to provide for those less fortunate e.g. charities etc.
- Saving fund enables you to provide for personal long term saving.
- Seed fund enables you to provide for the opportunity to create a passive or investment income in time to come.
- Step 2: The next step after you pay yourself is to honour your debt/commitments! The ideal in life is to aim for no debt at all. However, this is rarely possible and so it is a good idea to create a commitment your child or teenager will have to contribute to weekly such as a direct debit scheme. For example, my four children have a direct debit jar where each week they all commit to putting in 50c and as it accumulates they agree on something to buy together. It is an effective way of instilling discipline through regular payments and so honouring their debt/commitment.
- Step 3: Next step after honouring your debt is to prioritise the reminder of your income so you can spend it wisely! This is the stage at which you can decide to create further short term funds such as an outing fund for upcoming trips or holidays or for ongoing expenses such as phone credit, treats, DVDs etc.
There you have it, Safari Kids Education - Simple 3 Step Treasure Trail Programme © that is guaranteed once committed to and followed regularly to create financially astute children and teenagers who will evolve into financially literate and responsible adults with a wealth consciousness. Use this programme in conjunction with our Safari Treasure Trail activity sheets and products for optimal results!
