A storybook money course

Money lessons that read like a story.

Follow Bucket the turtle and friends as they learn to plan, save and share. Read a chapter, play the activities, earn coins and decorate your very own clubhouse.

Bucket the turtle swims in a pond, with a wooden tub sitting on the deck behind him.

Meet the gang

  • Bucket

    A turtle with a plan and a propeller cap.

  • Lizzy

    A unicorn who dreams big.

  • Foxy

    A fox who always puts first things first.

  • Jaxon

    A bunny who really, really likes cookies.

How it works

  1. Read the story

    Each chapter is a short, illustrated story about a real money idea, like needs and wants or saving for a rainy day.

  2. Play and practice

    Sort, order and quiz your way through activities. A wrong answer just means "try again", never "game over".

  3. Build your clubhouse

    Earn coins, spend them on decorations, and watch new friends move in as you meet them in the story.
