PricePinner
Teenagers will need a home one day. Few of them know what homes cost.
Why it matters
Housing is the biggest cost for most adults. Understanding it early helps with choices about education, work and saving.
Start with a game
Play PricePinner together. Let them guess first. Most teenagers are surprised by the numbers, in both directions.
Questions to talk about
- Why does a small flat in the city cost more than a big house in the countryside?
- What does a monthly fee pay for?
- How long would it take to save a deposit?
- What does a loan cost each month?
Make it a family challenge
Play the same five homes. Compare the scores. Parents do not always win.
Keep it positive
The goal is not to scare. It is to make the numbers real and understandable.
