Thinking Money for Kids

West Regional Branch of Mobile Public Library is one of only 50 libraries in the U.S. selected to host this exhibit between 2019 and 2022.

We all need to master the knowledge and skills to make smart financial choices and prepare for whatever the future brings. Thinking Money for Kids strives to teach children ages 7 to 11 and their parents, caregivers and educators about financial literacy topics — like saving, spending and budgeting — in a way that is not only understandable, but fun.

Through a bustling community market-themed storyline, digital interactive content and other fun, hands-on activities, the exhibition explores topics like earning money, saving and spending, and making responsible financial decisions.

The exhibition tour is currently paused due to the pandemic and will resume when it is safe to restart. In the meantime, you can experience an online version of the exhibition and make it part of your library's virtual financial education programming. 

West Regional hours: 
Monday - Thursday: 9 a.m. - 8 p.m.
Friday & Saturday: 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Sunday: Closed
