Welcome to my journal blog entries about what it is like to use the Kingdom Code curriculum that teaches kids financial responsibility and how to build a business God's way. Today we are sharing about Lesson 12 in our Journey Through The Code, sponsored by The Kingdom Code. Come with us on a 27-lesson journey as we journal about our experience with The Kingdom Code curriculum!

Here's our experience with LESSON 12:

Lesson 12 continues with the acronym JOEYS

J = Jesus  - give 10 percent to Jesus/the church
O = Others - give 5 percent to others
E - Education - save 10 percent for education
Y - YOU  TODAY'S LESSON IS ALL ABOUT YOU


OUR REMARKS ABOUT ACTIVITIES IN THE LESSON THAT WE FOUND TO BE ENGAGING:

The Y in Joeys is YOU. This is where you put 60 percent aside for you, or to invest in future businesses, etc. The main points in this lesson talked about needs v. wants and impulse buying v. paatience and waiting and making wise investments.

SUGGESTIONS, CHANGES, OR ADDITIONS MADE THAT WORKED PARTICULARLY WELL FOR OUR FAMILY:

I don't think we had to change anything in this lesson to adapt to our needs. We did personalize the activity where we were to search for an item and bargain hunt. She chose a bicycle, and we found different bikes for sale.  We also completed worksheet 12 and an activity which was discussing impulse buying and writing a story about it.

RECORDED OBSERVATIONS OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, MONEY SKILLS, BIBLE KNOWLEDGE, LIFE SKILLS, SOCIAL SKILLS, OR POSITIVE BEHAVIORS EXHITIBED OR ACQUIRED BY MY CHILD THAT I DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTE TO THE KINGDOM CODE CURRICULUM:

The funniest part of this lesson was how my daughter reacted to how much the lesson suggested you put aside for YOU. It was 60 percent. She looked at the pie chart, and her mouth dropped open saying, "Wow! How about giving some of that back to Jesus!" I thought that was sweet and funny.











We were asked to have our child choose a viable business before the end of Lesson 2 and to complete the Treasure Builder Permit form.

The program emphasizes service businesses, even though we are free to choose a goods-related business instead. The reason they stress service is because business usually requires less money since a goods business requires purchasing supplies and figuring out costs for each item. Service teaches children the ability to please someone else in order to receive compensation. If you choose a goods business, many of the activities will have to be adapted and cost/sale price must be taught thoroughly so profitability is achieved.
