we have a strategy with our eight year old daughter. she gets an allowance of $8 per week for doing her chores. we have a box that we allow her to decorate with anything she wants and it has a slit in it for money. we use it for her long term goals ( a DS game….an iPod dock). on the day i pay her – she can put in up to $4 and i will match it dollar for dollar. in effect, she can $12 per week if she chooses. some weeks she does $4, some weeks she does $0, but it’s a superb way to teach her that waiting and saving can be beneficial and bring you bigger and better things. it gives her a great sense of accomplishment to save for something that costs $100 or more. also – we use the $1 per week per year approach to set her allowance.

Thanks for including my post on debt and sexual addiction. Although I’m guessing you won’t be talking to your baby about that.
