From Piggy Banks to Digital Ledger Apps

Written by Sarah Mwongeli, Head of Curriculum

How do you teach a ten-year-old about inflation and digital ledger systems? You make them code their very own pocket money wallet app!

In our Finance Cabin, students design savings buckets, model compound growth parameters using simple tables, and explore how secure servers authenticate balance transfers.

By turning abstract financial terms into a tactile dashboard, children build practical life-skills and technical logic that prepares them for tomorrow's economy.

This is absolutely spot on! Teaching kids how to create rather than just consume completely changes their relationship with technology.

I loved reading this! Can we have a coding competition inside the cabin soon?
