-sp New baby on the way? #GCBudget

Children are one third of our population and all of our future.  ~Select Panel for the Promotion of Child Health, 1981

The cost of raising your first child can be staggering to a young family, racking up as

miuch as $12,000 in the first year alone. Grandparents can help by sending gift cards

for necessary purchases and letting mom and dad prioritize what they are spent on.

Cost of baby's first year? $12,000

Bottom line? Gift cards help us stay focused on what we need to buy. If we only have a

gift card handy–and not cash or credit cards–it's harder to go astray and spend for

things off-budget. It helps us to say "no" to ourselves when we can see the balance you

have to work with and then there is NO MORE. Using gift cards to teach kids how to

manage their money gets them off to a great start!

 Aside from new babies, new mothers must be the most beautiful creatures on earth. ~Terri Guillemets
