Small waits build patience.

3 min read

Learning to wait for something is one of the most useful money skills there is, and it can start early.

Ideas

  • Make a wish list instead of buying on the spot
  • Use a picture chart to count down to a purchase
  • Praise the waiting, not just the buying
  • Talk about a time you saved and waited for something
