UCCU Family Fun Festival

Our credit union did a family fun festival. It was free to the family and we got fake dollars to spend at different booths. We were given $10 for our family. The purpose of the festival was to help children/youth learn about saving and spending money. They had a fake bank where you could deposit your money and it would double in value after 20  minutes. So we deposited the kids money several times over to have plenty for them to spend on things. 
We were able to ride the train!






There were twenty or so bounce houses that they all played in. I was grateful that they had one for children under five-years-old. This was the one Brylee really enjoyed. 






Tucker and Hunter came and joined her in it right before we left. 
They also had a fake store where children could purchase one thing for a fake buck. We left with $5 fake for  Tucker, Hunter, and Brylee. With it we were able to open up a bank account for each of them at the credit union and receive $5 free!. They are super excited to have their own money in a bank!
