What your child sees

On a paired phone, tablet or wall display, your child sees their Texas College Savings Plan account next to everything else that's theirs: the total, how it's growing, and how much is set aside for their future. They can ask Penny, the built-in AI money mentor, what anything means at their age, from 5 to 18+. They can't trade, transfer or withdraw; those features don't exist in MemoryBank.
