How Much Pocket Money Do You Give Your Kids ?

Not got kids yet but I’m sure when we were kids it was a £1 a week. I’m 38 now.

Usually £10 a week but sometimes £30

I have four children, all grown up now but never gave them pocket money. They never went without and if they actually needed something then I would buy it.

My son is coming 6, he get £2 a week, he has little jobs like putting toilet roll in the bathroom, and help bring wood in for the fire with me etc.

We got 3 kids we give them £10 every week plus they can earn more money by doing bits around the home

My son gets £1 for doing a chore every day (compulsory) £2 for each extra one (if he decides to do extras) and £1 if he keeps bedroom tidy. Averages about £9 a week but if he's after a new game he ups his chores and one week earnt £38. When he puts money away for when he is older I match what he pays into the bank.

My dad use to leave us 10 p each before he went to the pub at night when we were children in the 70s and 80s.

My son is only 4 so doesn't get pocket money. I never got pocket money as a kid. I never went without though so never felt the need to ask for any. My grandparents used to give us £2 each when we went to visit them. I put money into my sons bank account so he has it for when he is older. He does small chores around the house, so gets a new toy every so often as a reward. For him he would rather be given a new car than handed money.

I give my daughter £40 a month, and put it into her bank account, she’s 14.

£30 a month he's 13, it should have gone up for his birthday but he's not consistent with his chores. May still put it up.

£10 a month

I used to get 9 old pence a week 6p for the pictures and 3p for sweets this went up to 50p a week when i got a paper round

£25 a week. He is 13.

I got the odd penny now and again and sixpence when the electric man came, black Jack's and dainty toffees here I come .

I give my 14 year old son £40 a month, but to be fair he does save up if there's something that he wants to buy.

my oldest son does a paper round for his pocket money and he'll ask for a top up if he needs something

second son is 11 gets a fiver provided jobs are done and can earn extra if he wants to

girls are 6 and 9 and get £2 each with leeway for asking for 50p here and there to buy things at the local shop

all can get a little top up for doing thing slike nipping to the post office or hoovering more than tehir own room.

Do any of you remember bringing back bottles and getting a few pence for returns. That was my pocket money back in the day

£10 a month

Well I only give them £2-£4 and I get them to help … like pick things up put in bin … wash up … I don’t over do it but I want them to be independent .. helpful …
