A BIG CHALLENGE

Parents, grandparents, teachers, nonprofit leaders and employers find themselves faced with a new challenge - stay home distance learning instruction for children.

Why is this an employer challenge? Simple. The more time a newly remote parent or grandparent employee is unnecessarily occupied taking care of kids, is crucial and non-recoverable time they are unable to advance an enterprise's mission. And, right now, this very second, at this world changing moment, we need to do both efficiently and effectively.

BE STRATEGIC

Let's meet the moment.

One strategic way to effectively engage and educate children is with music! Music has lots of positive benefits for everyone!

DISRUPTING YOUTH FINANCIAL ILLITERACY IN 2020

One of Sammy Rabbit's priority goals in 2020 is to begin the process of disrupting youth financial illiteracy - WHERE it begins in the "heads and hearts" of young children.

Music is one of the strategies Sammy's implementing to execute the disruption.

All are welcome to join the campaign.

You can begin today with the free resources offered herein or other resources.

The key to disruption is to get started. Do it today. Do it BEFORE bad money habits, thinking and attitude destroy kids and students dreams and diminish their opportunity for financial freedom and security!

REMEMBER

Remember, Sammy Says:

"Great habits give all kids a better and brighter future. That's what we want!"
