Gifting Sense: Lifelong Financial Literacy Begins With Simple Consumer Decisions

Updated: February 12 2026

Objective

Teachers will be able to:

  • Teach mindful consumer decision-making using an award-winning, permissionless mindful spending tool, the DIMS – DOES IT MAKE SENSE?® SCORE Calculator.
  • Connect interactive classroom activities to the CEE National Standards for Personal Finance.
  • Support SEL and financial literacy simultaneously.

Description

In this webinar, you will experience firsthand how and why thinking before buying is an easy-to-teach, powerful, and sticky life skill that can be introduced in a single classroom session. You’ll see precisely how to guide students through the habits of pausing, gathering information, and reflecting—before spending their money or anyone else’s. Why attend? Because early success with thinking before buying primes students to seek out the more sophisticated financial knowledge they’ll need later in life, when it becomes relevant and valuable. This is how mindful spending builds lasting financial literacy. Once students realize they can gather and use even a little financial know-how to shape their future, they naturally want more!
