ROCKFORD, Ill. — Rock Valley Credit Union is part of a new exhibit at Discovery Center Museum that is designed to help children learn about banking through play.
The hands-on exhibit includes a teller desk with play money, a vault and a drive-up window complete with a kid-sized car that’s fixed in place, the credit union said.
It also features a kid-friendly take on Rock Valley Credit Union’s personalized teller machine, which blends an ATM with a live teller on video.
Wags, the credit union’s mascot for its kids sav›ing club, appears on the screen and a voice congratulates children for saving money, the museum said.
Discovery Center and Rock Valley Credit Union participated in a ribbon cutting for the exhibit.
