" Red envelope "(微信红包)has swept the country recently.Children can get more money by snatching(抢)red envelope. But everyone needs to understand something about money: where it comes from, how to save it and how to spend it correctly. Too many parents don't take time to teach their children about money, and as a result, many of those children don't know how to deal with money when they grow up.
When should parents begin teaching their children about money? Experts(专家) agree that it's never too early. The more children learn about money,the more correctly they will be able to deal with money as they grow older. To begin with, parents can teach kids how to count money.
