Do you want to teach your kids how to live frugally and save money?

Learn how to approach financial topics with your kids with our guest expert Beth Kobliner. Beth is a personal finance author, a member of the President's Advisory Council on Financial Capability, and a content advisor for Sesame Street's Financial Education Initiative, for which she teaches Elmo about money in their outreach videos.

Beth will be in Frugalistas the week of May 9 to answer YOUR questions. You can ask questions about when to start talking about finances with your kids, how to get them to become good savers, or any other kids & money or personal finance questions you have! Please post your questions as a reply to this post. Beth will post her responses here as well.

Post your questions now and you could win a copy of Beth's book, "Get a Financial Life," plus a set of Sesame Street Finger Puppets! 10 moms will win a prize set!
