Abstract

The literature review aims to present an explanation about the exigancy of financial literacy for the younger generation and how to take a practical approach to financial education for early childhood. This research will examine a few articles from various national and international journals/proceedings/websites. The most effective learning approach to financial literacy is based on several principles. First, incorporate financial concepts and money management skills into the child's daily social interactions with adults and other children. Second, provide appropriate activities that take cognitive limitations into account. Third, implement a series of learning activities related to the child's personal experiences, so that the child have meaningful learning.
