2.  ADD SHAREHOLDER BOOK (OPTIONAL)

Our vividly colored book explains what it means to be a shareholder, what to expect, and the basics about stocks.

  • Ages 8-25
  • Includes activities, resources and a discount coupon for their next share.

3.  THE STOCK CERTIFICATE - A CRITICAL ELEMENT

The stock certificate is a physical representation of ownership and is crucial to grab their attention. Kids need something tangible that a brokerage account just doesn't provide. 

  • Give the stock certificate as the attention-getter.
  • Hang it on the wall to keep it front and center - and for bragging rights.
  • Authentic registered certificates may also have collectible value.

4.  LET THEM EXPERIENCE STOCK OWNERSHIP

Each mailing from THEIR company becomes a learning opportunity.

  • Dividend checks
  • Annual reports
  • Invites to shareholder meetings
  • Voting proxies
  • Some companies have other perks

Have them check their stock quote periodically.
