Checks and Balances Finances Life Skills Boardgame (teenage adolescence game)

This game is designed to teach our young adolescents’ real-world college and career readiness skills to survive in our ever shifting and deteriorating economy.

This game includes everything from using credit cards, checks, debit cards, and even cash. Students will learn how to properly write a check, withdrawal from an ATM, verify their accounts. They will save, earn, and spend money trying to match with the banker and increase their credit scores.

The goal is for the first player to reach a credit score of 800 points. To do this they need to track and balance their checking account as they move through their new life living on their own. Students will learn through real-life scenarios.

From college student loans to not having overdraft protection in the worst of times. It’s all here! Students will also earn credit cards and have maximum spending limits on each to help them survive. They can earn higher spending credit cards with higher credit scores.

This game has won over the reality of the life skills it teaches. A fun, competitive way to bring home to the family. There is so much for such a small price. Yes, the prep may take awhile but well worth it in the end and the journey to get there.
