Back-To-School Shoe / Sneaker Shopping Tips

August 30, 2017 By Y3K

Here are some important tips when back-to-school shoe/sneaker shopping:

 

1.  Have your kids try on shoes at the end of the day or after a workout when feet are swelled.

2.  There must be at least a half-inch of space between the longest toe and the tip of the shoes. Make sure there is plenty of room to wiggle the toes inside each shoe.

3.  Always lace the shoes when trying them on.

4.  When trying on shoes, have your student wear the type of socks they would normally be wearing.

5.  Walk and run in the shoes on different surfaces like tile or carpet to make sure they are comfortable. They should not require breaking in.

Kids, Money, and Capitalism

November 17, 2016 By Y3K

Kids can learn about money, hard work and capitalism. Some parents don’t believe in giving their kids an allowance. Instead they give their kids a commission. If the children work doing chores, they get paid. If they don’t work, they don’t get anything. Children learn very quickly how capitalism works throughout the United States. They realize if they want something, they will have to work hard to earn it.

The pay range could be around $1 to $5 per chore. Some increase the amount as the child grows and the work becomes more difficult. If you decide to go this route, make sure the commission amount is appropriate for your family and budget.
