Everybody wants to give their children the best possible start in
life, and make their future as secure as possible. Two ways of
helping them, money-wise, are by encouraging them to save with
their own bank account, and by making
investments on their behalf.

Ever since I got married, my Bank of America Credit Card miles haven't been posting to my Mileage Plan account.
Credit First Service Union Most high street banks offer children's accounts, usually a
straightforward bank account with a moderate interest rate. These
often come with incentives like free piggy banks that are intended
to help children develop a sense of responsibility and prudence
about money from an early age. You may like to give your child a
financial education by opening them their 'own' account - though
there's nothing to stop you using a normal adult account with
better rates of interest.

Card Credit Discover Service The Children's Bonus Bonds are a tax-free savings account
specifically aimed at children. You can invest between £25 and
£3000 a year for five years and get guaranteed interest, plus a
bonus. Many people choose to give Premium Bonds as
gifts for children's birthdays. If
they win, it could give them the best present ever!
The primary credit card holder is the only person who earns credit card miles into his or her own Mileage Plan account. Each individual has their own Mileage Plan account number that cannot be shared, even if more than one person holds a credit card linked to the same bank account.

a savings account from the very beginning. Any child born after 1st
September 2002 is entitled to a voucher worth £250 to be invested
in a savings account. Visit www.childtrustfund.gov.uk for
details.
Center Credit Service Union It's a good idea to invest for your children's' education as
early as possible - whether that means private school fees or
supporting them when they go into higher education. Long term
investments, such as bonds with a ten year term, are a good choice
for this purpose.
Card Credit Service Wireless Children are taxed in the same way as adults, and have their own
personal tax allowances. If you give money or assets to your own
child and it produces an income of £100 or over, the income is
counted as yours and taxed at your top rate. You can avoid this
rule by choosing investments with tax free returns or capital
gains, rather than income.
Credit Security Service Union If people other than parents give
gifts then the income counts as
the child's own, and in this case it's a good idea to ask
grandparents or relatives to send a letter or card with any
money gifts. That way you have proof
of whom the money came from in case the tax office demands it.

Inland Revenue's website at www.hmrc.gov.uk
