About Bruce’s Book Project
Digital Piggy Bank: Teaching Kids to Save in the Modern World.
Bruce believes that saving money should be as engaging as playing a game. That’s why he created the
Digi Piggy Bank, an innovative tool that blends traditional saving with modern technology.
With features like QR-code payments, a savings-goal tracker, and parental controls, kids can learn real-world money
skills while having fun. Family and friends can contribute instantly, and children get to see their progress grow
before their eyes. Parents love the safety, security, and early financial education it provides.
To bring the concept to life, Bruce developed a companion flip-book and partnered with The Thredyl Press to create a
lovable plush character. Together, the book and plush give children a tangible, heartwarming connection to the savings
journey—reminding them that financial responsibility can be fun, colorful, and full of imagination.
Why it matters: Kids learn to set goals and practice patience; parents gain peace of mind; and families
can turn everyday saving into a shared, interactive experience.
