This activity gives children the opportunity to meet adults from a variety of workplaces to help them learn more about the links between work, money and future lifestyle and goals. How do people earn money? How does what people earn affect their spending and saving choices? Inviting a volunteer or outside speaker into your setting can help this subject ‘come alive’ when they speak from experience, tell personal stories and tackle concepts such as salaries and job satisfaction in a real-life context.

This activity is part of our range of Money Heroes resources for children with special educational needs.

These resources have been adapted to be flexible for use in a range of settings and with children of varying abilities or special educational needs. Rather than using age groups or key stages, each activity has been given a difficulty level, based on children’s financial knowledge, skills and understanding. Practitioners should choose activities based on the financial capability level of the children they are working with.

This is an **expert** level activity – this level suits children who have a good level of financial education understanding and are ready to start developing their skills and knowledge further.
