Or should our notion of daily life itself be transformed?

In any case, do you really think kids even want something that is relevant to their daily lives? You think something practical like compound interest is going to get them excited?

Your vision of your future will help you press forward. Take a few minutes to envision where you want to be in one year or two or five. Then take action to prepare yourselves.
