Play these online games...let us know what you think

My Sunday story will be about how some groups are trying to reach children and young adults with financial education through online games.

Test these games out: Celebrity Calamity, The Great Piggy Bank Adventure, Moneytopia and Stagecoach Island.

Then let us know what you think. Is this a good way to teach finances? Did you learn anything? Are the games fun or not?

Also, join us Tuesday for a live chat with Nick Maynard, director of innovation with Doorways to Dreams, the creator of Celebrity Calamity. The chat starts online here at noon, Oct. 6th.
