Junior Millionaire Planner (JUMP) provides a comprehensive platform that equips young minds with essential money management skills from an early age. We have conducted surveys and discovered that a significant number of primary school children lack awareness and knowledge when it comes to money management. Early awareness is crucial, as it helps them to understand the importance of saving and the need to take ownership of their finances rather than solely relying on their parents as they grow up. The objective of this innovation is to equip children with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed financial decisions, develop healthy financial habits, and establish a strong foundation for their future financial well-being. JUMP has a variety of interesting features that make it unique compared to what is available in the market. It includes a "money pouch" for children to save leftover money, promoting saving habits. Additionally, a mini calculator helps them practice math skills. The planner also offers colorful stickers, interactive graphics, and a calendar, enhancing its value and providing engaging visuals. This innovation will benefit children who have limited exposure to money management skills, as it aims to encourage them to start developing basic financial management abilities on a smaller scale. The target market for this product is specifically aimed at primary school students, and we want to introduce this innovation to the market. This product is highly recommended by a teacher from SK Pandan Indah, further affirming its value and suitability for young learners.
