    BizKid$ takes Financial Literacy to the Big Screen

    I stumbled across this video and thought that parents as well as teens should know about it. A TV series that inspires youth to understand money as well as business. I think it is a great idea.

    BizKid$ is produced by the Emmy Award-winning creators of the PBS/Disney series "Bill Nye the Science Guy". The creators' vision is to produce at least 39 half-hour episodes of BizKid$ to educate children and their families about personal finance. The show would initially be scheduled to air once a week on PBS stations in markets from Seattle to Rochester, N.Y. Once enough episodes are produced to begin a daily rotation, the show would be presented to air every weekday in a suggested time slot throughout the PBS system.

    I have not seen any episodes yet, but from the promo video I think it would keep a lot of young teens attention and they would be learning invaluable financial knowledge. Check it out and send this blog to anyone you think would benefit from it.
