</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
The programs will allow kids to create their own farm, participate in a puppet show, learn about adopting pets and become party planners, all while learning about personal finance topics like saving, spending and budgeting. Designed by educational media specialists
and vetted by children's librarians and financial literacy experts, the programs can be scaled to work in libraries of all sizes and can be led by library workers, volunteers or teens of varying experience levels, including those with little or no prior experience
hosting financial education programming.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
All public libraries, including tribal and state libraries, in the U.S. and U.S. territories are encouraged to apply. The brief application can be completed in less than 30 minutes.</p>
