As we get closer to the holidays, it's time for another great family board game to teach kids about money.

Up next is the game Easy Money.

Easy Money's best element is the fast paced nature of the game. Your kids will probably also get excited as they watch large amounts of money added to their account pile up, since the game uses much larger sums of money than other games.

However, Easy Money, unlike most of the other games we talked about, doesn't really focus on the learning aspect as much. It's something to be aware of if you are shopping for a game focused more on teaching your kids about money.
