Money Monsters

Description

High school education does not prepare children to deal with financial responsibilities, and there is no practical manner for young people to improve their literacy in the subject. Although parents try to educate their children, many struggle to find effective tools that combine real world money management with age appropriate learning materials. Money Monsters addresses this challenge by enabling parents to assign household chores and offer pocket money as incentives. Children can set savings goals, request rewards, and access educational content about managing budgets. The priority was designing a simple solution that ensures young users can navigate the platform independently, while parents maintain an administrative overview. Developed over four weeks, this full stack application uses a task and reward structure, mirroring real world financial transactions. The playful yet functional visual design makes budgeting tangible, and transforms routine household tasks into meaningful learning opportunities.
