Piggy ATM: A Meticulously crafted Interface to instil Money Management skill in Children

Abstract

This research paper is about the design of an interface of the ATM for the kids. Like adults, even kids face situations in which they need emergency money, especially when they are on field trips or picnics. To accomplish this, we carried out a thorough market research with parents as well as children to understand requirements of the ATM as per different age groups. We designed the interface customized for each age group and gender. Our aim is to help kids explore the use and importance of money. There are a variety of ways or games which allow children to role play with money; but there is nothing to let them explore money management and banking. By using an ATM for kids, children will be able to integrate these additional building blocks into their life at an early stage.
