Raising the Next Generation of Money-Smart Kids
At My Little Wealth Builder, we believe every child deserves to grow up feeling confident and capable with money—before they ever face their first paycheck, credit card, or loan application.
Most adults learn about money through trial and error, often the hard way. We're here to change that.
Our mission is simple: make money lessons so fun and natural that kids barely realize they're learning—but remember the lessons for life.
Two Perspectives, One Mission
We're Ariel and Joshua, co-founders of My Little Wealth Builder, based in Long Island, New York. Our backgrounds couldn't be more different.
Joshua grew up with two great parents who taught him the value of saving, investing, budgeting, and spending wisely. He assumed everyone had that knowledge—until he realized how rare it actually was.
Ariel had the opposite experience. No one taught him about money, and he found himself tens of thousands of dollars in debt before learning how to manage and grow his finances.
One of us learned the easy way. One of us learned the hard way. Together, we bring both perspectives to the table—and we share a mission to help kids start with the right habits from the very beginning.
Our Core Values
Money isn't just about dollars—it's about choices, freedom, and confidence.
Every child should feel capable when it comes to money, no matter their family's background.
The best lessons happen in everyday moments—especially between parent and child.
The Beginning
This journey began with a conversation between the two of us—swapping stories about our financial upbringings and realizing that most kids either aren't taught about money at all, or they're taught too late.
When we looked for resources, we saw plenty of books that mentioned money but few that actually taught kids how to use it in a way that sticks. So we set out to create something better—stories that are fun first, and packed with lessons kids will carry for life.
The Numbers Don't Lie
Age kids start grasping money concepts
Age when money habits are set
Parents believe financial literacy matters
Actively teaching it at home
Financial literacy isn't just a nice-to-have—it's a life skill. That gap matters. And it's why My Little Wealth Builder exists—to give parents a simple, stress-free way to start the conversation early.
Our Vision & Impact
We've seen how powerful early money lessons can be. Parents tell us their kids start asking smarter questions, thinking before spending, and feeling proud of the choices they make. That's the real reward—watching confidence grow with every story.
We're just getting started. Our goal is to create more books, reach more families, and make financial literacy a natural part of every child's upbringing.
We envision a generation of kids who grow into adults that avoid common money traps, build stability, and make values-driven choices—because someone read them a story that made it all click.
