Abstract

The article highlights the leading role of parents in the economic upbringing of children. The teach-ers’ important – although supporting – role in the process has also been appreciated. Moreover, the article stresses the necessity of cooperation between kindergarten and elementary education teachers and the family environment in the field of economic education. Teachers should be well prepared for this task. Parents and teachers should be ready to: – conduct competent conversations with children about money and money management; – implement joint projects with children in which they could involve their work in making money, spending, saving, and giving it, and also do some work for the common and other people’s good.In addition, the article presents the results of a survey conducted among students of pedagogy about economic upbringing of the youngest children. The results of that survey are presented, analysed, and interpreted.
