Award-winning financial literacy program now available to parents of kids (6-12) for the first time. BeCentsableSmart.com

NEW YORK, April 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time in 16 years, parents and grandparents can bring The Centsables, an award-winning TV series and multi-media financial literacy platform, to their loved ones ages 6-12 through show creator Mark DiPippa's new BeCentsableSmart.com program!

The Centsables is built around six animated superheroes who save fellow citizens from money-mad villains, while modeling prosocial behaviors. Every component is designed to entertain as it educates; BeCentsableSmart.com was created to channel these award-winning resources to those who need them most—our kids and grandkids.

DiPippa stated that "Research shows that financial habits begin to form as young as age 7. Yet financial literacy is not taught in elementary schools, and only 17 states require a class in financial literacy in high school.

"April is Financial Literacy Month. There is no better time to give parents and grandparents the tools they need to teach the children they love basic money skills. By visiting BeCentsableSmart.com and purchasing a gift subscription, they can take matters into their own hands, and bring our entertaining and informative Centsables materials right to the kids they love, month after month."

Since its creation in 2007, The Centsables financial literacy programs have only been made available to banks, credit unions and financial advisors. Now for the first time, parents and grandparents can give access to the entire library to the next generation of their families, ensuring that their kids and grandkids begin to build sound financial habits, right at home.
