Savings Spree is an educational app targeting children aged 7 and above (younger children can participate with assistance from parents or older siblings). It educates children on how their daily choices can lead to significant savings or expenses based on their spending habits. Savings Spree emphasizes the importance of saving for short-term goals, making wise spending decisions, contributing to charitable causes, and investing for future needs like higher education.

The game illustrates how small decisions in a child's routine can culminate in substantial financial outcomes, depending on their financial habits. It introduces the idea of earning money through available work opportunities and guides children in managing the money they accrue throughout the game. Additionally, Savings Spree highlights the potential costs of unforeseen circumstances, stressing the importance of having an emergency fund for unexpected expenses.

Presented in a game show format, Savings Spree comprises six rounds that challenge players' financial knowledge while enhancing their money-saving skills. The host of the show is the Money Savvy Pig, a trusted and financially literate character central to the award-winning Money Savvy Kids curriculum, also provided by Money Savvy Generation.
