At Bank of us, we believe financial literacy is a life skill that starts early.

Understanding the value of money, saving, and making thoughtful choices are lessons that shape confident, capable adults—and it all begins in childhood.

That’s why we created Big Plans: A Show Day Adventure, a fun and interactive story-based app designed for children aged 4–8. Set in a vibrant community preparing for its annual show, the app turns everyday money concepts into playful challenges and engaging adventures. Kids learn through exploration, decision-making, and storytelling—all in a safe, age-appropriate environment.

As a community-driven organisation, we’re committed to supporting financial education at every stage of life. By empowering families to start these conversations early, we’re helping build stronger, more financially confident communities for the future.

Helping kids understand money – A guide for parents

Children are naturally curious about money. They notice coins, ask to buy things, and enjoy counting and sorting. At this age, financial literacy is not about complex maths—it’s about building positive habits, simple understanding, and confidence.
