"Eat Your Money" Big Belly Banks Review and Giveaway

When I was growing up, my parents always made my siblings and I put half of our money into our savings account. It didn't matter if it was money we earned from doing chores, from working or birthday money. We each had our own savings accounts for as long as I can remember. I also remember thinking how stupid it was to be forced to save half of my money. Besides, none of my friends had savings accounts.

As I grew older, I began to realize and understand what a valuable and important life lesson my parents had taught us. Being money smart is essential. Now, as a parent myself, I've taught my children that same important lesson about money, saving and spending.

My children are just 10 and 7 years old but have had a savings account since they were just a few months old.  As my parents did with me years ago, the majority of my children's money goes into their savings account or an investment CD.

We all know that spending money can be fun and rewarding but so can saving money, especially when you have a Big Belly Bank.  They are simply adorable!

Big Belly Banks come is a variety of kid-friendly designs and two different sizes, 20" and 23".  They are sturdy, durable and built to last.

Not only are they super cute but they are also loads of fun!  Within minutes my two kids had put over 20 coins into the mouth of their wooden banks mouth.  Lots of smiles and giggles were included too!

Big Belly Banks "eat" all your coins! Pennies, Nickels, Dimes and Quarters all make their way easily from the "mouth" to the "big belly!"

To get the money out once it's full simply take out the single screw holding the two sides of the "big belly" together.  Quick and simple.
