Highly recommended
My First Nest Egg is a great app for kids learning about money. It’s easy to understand, engaging, and helps teach saving and smart choices in a fun, age-appropriate way. A fantastic tool for building healthy money habits early.
So helpful!
First, they are helpful if you have a technical issue. They responded within 24 hours and solved it within 48!
Second, the app works well for me because we struggle with a chore list/weekly allowance concept.
My First Nest Egg helps me connect how chores can simultaneously be a requirement of living and also a source of earning money.
It adds extrinsic motivation without destroying existing intrinsic motivation.
It supports the ideas of save/spend/give buckets, which we will build on when discussing budgets.
We are more spontaneous, so chore lists don’t work for us (for example, some days, my kid sets the table while other days, they have too much homework.)
The app gives us flexibility to earn when there’s time and intention.
It also grants control to the child—allowing them to give themself credit for their work when they remember/feel they went above and beyond/have a financial goal.
And it allows me to reward them spontaneously as well—like an earned bonus at a job.

love this free app
I needed a way to motivate my kids to do their chores and keep track of what I owe them. This app is magic. My kids love the puzzles and I love that they are starting to understand how money works. Also it's free - and founded by moms. Win/Win.
It takes thought but it works
I was ready to say it’s a fail , but had my epiphany. Odd numbers work with thought. You can add an extra task, like “say thank you” to your 5 day chore to make it a 6 piece puzzle. (Wash dishes x5, smile x1) I eventually used the pieces as a checklist to make sure the chore is done correctly. Wash the car becomes (soap, rinse, scrub tires, dry glass) 4 pieces. The flexible chore option lets you assign a chore to both children, so they can choose extra chores. So far setup is good.

Great app love it😍😍😍♥️♥️♥️❗️❗️❗️
Once I started using this app, I need so much money. It’s a great way to track how much money you have because you just looked there. Click on an app open it up and you see how much money you have if you flush your teeth then you push many timesyour parents can see your house if they know you didn’t do something. Once you did a chore you can click. I did that one time and your parent will put a puzzle piece on your puzzle. If you get all the puzzle pieces then you can you will get money super helpful getting so much money and super easy to use.
