I picked up the Clever Fox Play My First Little Business because I wanted a way to introduce kids to money and basic financial concepts without turning it into a boring lesson. This game does a nice job of making financial literacy feel more like play. The biggest strength is that it combines money skills with entrepreneurship. Kids get to think about earning, spending, making choices, and running a little business, which gives the concepts more context than simply memorizing what different coins and bills are worth. I really like that it works as a family game, because it creates an opportunity to talk about financial decisions while everyone is playing. Parents can explain why certain choices might be better than others and use situations in the game as starting points for conversations about saving, budgeting, and planning. It's also a useful option for a classroom setting. Teachers can use a game like this to reinforce financial-literacy lessons while giving students something hands-on to work with. The interactive format can make concepts easier for kids to remember. Another benefit is that it introduces the idea that money involves choices and consequences. That's an important lesson for kids to learn early, and a game provides a low-pressure environment where they can experiment and learn from mistakes. Pros: Makes financial literacy fun and interactive Introduces basic money-management concepts Incorporates entrepreneurship and business ideas Encourages kids to make financial decisions Great for family game nights Useful for classroom financial-literacy activities Provides opportunities for parents to discuss money with kids Hands-on approach can make concepts easier to remember More engaging than a traditional worksheet or lesson Educational while still feeling like a game Cons: Younger children may need help understanding some of the financial concepts Adults may need to provide additional explanation during play Kids who aren't interested in business themes may take longer to get engaged Learning value depends partly on how much discussion happens during the game May be more educational than entertaining for kids looking for a purely competitive game Final Thought: The Clever Fox Play My First Little Business is a clever way to introduce children to financial literacy without making it feel like homework. I especially like the combination of money management and entrepreneurship, since it gives kids practical situations to think through rather than simply teaching definitions. It's a great choice for families or classrooms looking for a hands-on way to start conversations about money, spending, saving, and business.

THIS GAME IS A GREAT INVESTMENT INTO YOUR KIDS FUTURE! One evening, Leo’s mom and dad sat down for a talk. They realized their kids needed to learn more about money management. Too often, Leo and his siblings would ask for money for everything they wanted without thinking about where it came from. They decided it was time to teach them the value of earning and saving by implementing a chore system for their allowances. The next day, they gathered the kids and explained the new plan. Each child would receive an allowance, but only after completing their chores for the week. At first, Leo felt frustrated; he had always gotten money easily, and he was soon worrying about how he was going to get the stuff that he wanted. So once a week, the family gathered for game night, and played a board game called “My First Little Business”, which was a fun spin on Monopoly Junior, only where you learn about saving, investing, and spending money. Instead of buying properties, players focused on building their own businesses. The game was easy to learn and designed for kids, making it perfect for family fun. During the game, Leo had to make decisions about his finances, deciding when to spend and when to save his play money. He noticed how quickly his funds could dwindle if he wasn’t careful, and he started to grasp the real-life implications of spending and saving. After the game, Leo began to take his chores more seriously. Each week, he completed his tasks diligently, eager to earn his allowance. As he saved his money for things he wanted—like a new video game—he discovered the satisfaction that came from working for something. By the time Leo reached high school, he had transformed his attitude toward money. No longer did he constantly ask his parents for cash; he was thoughtful about his spending and proud of his savings. The lessons he learned from his parents and the game helped him understand that earning and saving money was not just about gaining access to what he wanted, but about building a strong foundation for the future. With newfound confidence, Leo looked forward to making wise financial choices, one thoughtful step at a time. This truly is a great game at a great price!

This game was a HUGE hit in our house. I bought it because I liked the idea of introducing business and money concepts in a way that was actually fun, but I honestly didn’t expect my son to get as into it as he did. Setup was easy, the game itself was easy to understand, and the pieces feel surprisingly sturdy and well made. Nothing feels flimsy or like it’s going to be destroyed after a few rounds, which I really appreciate with a kids game. Fair warning: when you first see the directions, they look LONG. Don’t let that scare you! Think Monopoly long. Once you actually start playing, everything makes sense pretty quickly. We played for about an hour and my son stayed engaged the entire time. He was making decisions, managing his money, watching what was happening with everyone else, and getting completely invested in his little business empire. 😂 At one point he was absolutely convinced he was RICH. He was not. Watching that realization happen might have been my favorite part. 😂😂 And that’s what I really loved about this game it sneaks in lessons about money, choices, business, risk, and the fact that having a pile of cash right now does NOT necessarily mean you’re doing well, all while the kids just think they’re playing a game. For $18, I think this is an awesome buy. It entertained us for a solid hour, my son genuinely wants to play again, and it’s something I actually enjoyed playing with him instead of just enduring because it’s a “kids’ game.” Fun, educational, sturdy, and actually entertaining for the adults too. Easy 5 stars. If you have a kid who loves money, strategy, pretend businesses, or just beating their parents at games, GET IT.

I ordered this for my 12- and 13-year-old kids, and they both really enjoyed playing it. What impressed me most was how much they felt they learned while still having fun. After playing, my kids said the game helped them understand how a business works, including the concept of a workday and the relationship between working and earning money. They also felt it taught them about work ethic and how hard work can affect what you are able to earn and accomplish. I especially like that the game teaches the value of money and encourages kids to be financially responsible with the money they have. Throughout the game, they have to make decisions about earning and spending, buying tools, dealing with expenses, and eventually building a business. There is also quite a bit of basic math involved, so they are practicing financial skills without it feeling like schoolwork. The game itself is colorful, easy to understand, and doesn't have an overwhelming number of pieces or complicated rules. At 12 and 13, my kids were old enough to understand the business concepts but still found the actual gameplay entertaining. Overall, I think this is a great way to introduce kids to entrepreneurship, financial responsibility, the value of money, and the connection between work and earning. My kids had fun playing it and actually walked away feeling like they learned something, which is exactly what I want from an educational game.

Very interesting and relavant game. It's a shorter faster pace version of Monopoply with viberant colors and careers choices that are somewhat appropriate with the additon of Social Media blogeer. Very easy to play once you understand that you need to purchase tools first in order to qualify to purchase a business license and there are so many taxes spaces along the way that it can make for a great opportunity to discuss the why behind taxes. Unforntuantly this game doesen't offer a website link to gain more information as to why we pay taxes or allow you to write of donations nor does it have any indebth meaning as to why you need to obtain so many tools in order to get a business license . I also love that they use paper money . It makes the financial aspect much more tangible for kids to understand. And what a unique way to end the game . Whomever has $100 in cash firsr wins. Buying trading should have had some examples on strategy but it still works . I purchase a lot of games as aides in my teaching. Games are excellent teaching tools and this one has so much potiental that I will keep it in rotation. I suggest pairing it though with an early economics lesson and maybe have some information on hand to helpo explain to kids the why in Business literacy. Other than that I really love it. So many learning oppourtuntines in a simple game set up. You'll just have to do the heavy lifting yourself to get the conversation going. It would be perfect for a unit study game on enterprenuearship *** On a side note one of my kids found it so odd that none of the kid characters had noses.

We have been playing this financial literacy board game as a family for about two weeks and it has become a regular weekend activity. My kids are 9 and 12, and both of them engaged with it, which is not something I can say about every educational game we have tried. The 12-year-old picked up the concepts quickly and started making strategic decisions by the third game. The 9-year-old needed a little explanation on some terms but was fully participating within twenty minutes. The game covers concepts like budgeting, saving, investing, and handling unexpected expenses. The scenarios feel realistic rather than oversimplified -- there are decisions that actually require tradeoffs, not just obvious right answers. We have had real conversations during play about why certain choices work out better, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Component quality is solid. The cards are thick and have held up through multiple sessions with kids handling them. The board is well-organized and the layout makes sense once you play through one round. Setup takes about ten minutes once you know the game. As a parent in Clermont trying to give my kids practical money skills before they hit high school, this hits the right notes. It is not preachy, it does not feel like homework, and the kids retain the lessons because they made the decisions themselves during play. Would recommend for families with kids aged 9 and up. We will keep this in regular rotation and I am already thinking about buying a second copy for a friend who homeschools.

I would say this game is definitely better suited for kids around 8–10 years and older, and probably not suitable for younger kids. That said, it seems like a really fun game and has a great concept. It comes with a foldable board, cards, dice, and simple instructions. You basically move around the board, collect things, pay for things, and get to see how the profits work. I really like the idea behind it because it introduces the concept of money in a fun and easy way. I think it’s important for kids to understand that everything costs money and that they can’t just keep asking for things endlessly. This game seems like a really nice and subtle way to introduce that concept without making it feel like a lesson. My son is only five, and although I initially thought he might be able to play, I think he needs to understand rules a little better before he can really enjoy this game. So for now, I’m folding it up and keeping it on the shelf. Maybe in a year or two, I’ll bring it back out because I think it will be a lot of fun to play together. I also like that there aren’t too many rules or cards. For beginners, having too many rules can make a game complicated instead of fun. This one keeps things simple while still teaching a useful concept, which I really like. Came in a nice durable box and perfect for gifting as well.

I expected I might have to convince the kids to sit down and try this, but they surprised me by opening it up and playing it themselves. That alone impressed me. An educational game only works if kids actually want to play it, and this one managed to get their attention without feeling like another lesson. I really like the concept behind this game. It gives kids an age-appropriate introduction to entrepreneurship while teaching them about earning money, expenses, making decisions, buying tools and licenses, and growing a business. The gameplay is fun, but there are real financial and business concepts being introduced along the way. Everything is nicely presented, well built and there is quite a bit included in the box. The colorful board, pretend money, cards and character pieces make it feel like a real board game rather than an educational worksheet disguised as one. I genuinely think games like this should be available in schools and libraries. Kids don't necessarily need to understand every aspect of running a business at this age. Getting them interested, asking questions and excited about entrepreneurship is already valuable. This is a fantastic introduction to business and financial literacy, and most importantly, the kids actually enjoy playing it.
