Chore Bank
Chore Bank and Bank of Mom are two fairly similar apps allowing you to create a virtual bank account for each of your kids.
Both these apps help your children learn the importance of financial responsibility and planning as well as the principals of withdrawing and making deposits wisely into their ‘bank account’.
Monetary values can be assigned into their app accounts by means of chores completed or allowances. Children can also bank and make withdrawals on activities like TV time and video games teaching them to not only withdraw money thoughtfully but to allocate their time wisely to.
