Re: Money allowance for kids?

The last trip DS had saved $22 per day for spending (of our 5 disney days trip and two travel days). He saved all of his funds and then we divided it evenly per the number of days (plus two travel days, driving) and that's what he had. He bought something every day, usually a pin, and actually came home with money!

This trip he is saving again and it looks like he is on course to have $50/day of our 7 disney days of his own spending money. I will suggest that he not take it all, but our agreement is that it's his money, he saved it, if he wants to spend it at disney, he may. and now that he's a little older (11 for this trip), he likes to buy CDs and movies and games, and those things add up.
