What age did you start pocket money

[CCW14]

Ds will be turning 5 and I was thinking of doing pocket money, just a small amount to help with learning the value of money. He is good with numbers and often will say something costs X amount of money. We also play lots of games that require money.
Is it ever too young to learn to save for what you want and that money doesn’t grow on trees? I would not be doing chores for the money, just a weekly £2 (promoting around that)

Following as I’m also wondering about this.

I started when mine were 8&10 for weekly money, they also had to start putting clothes into the laundrette hamper, make their beds and put away clothes into return £1 a week then (18 years ago). Chores got increased along with pocket money ending up with £15 a week at 6th form.

We started around age 5 or 6. Weekly cash. Saved for 2-3 weeks then went into town to carefully spend. e.g. Charity shop toys or ornaments. Go round a handful of shops, choose the nicest thing go back and buy.

Similar. Older 2 do a few chores/keep their rooms tidy and get pocket money. My 6 year old doesn't yet.

For me age 9/10 I start 😁

We've started with £1/week at five, not linked to chores. You do chores because you live here and contribute to the mess. You get pocket money because you're part of the family, and we all get some discretionary spends (finances allowing).

Part of the logic for starting at five was that we could start with a low enough amount that if they wanted to spend it all on sweets, it wouldn't be that many sweets.
