The best way to promote the use of BTC/SATS is not through listing their numerous benefits to family, friends, and coworkers. It is something entirely different and involves only a few easy steps by the parents of children. If you have children, pay them an allowance in SATS. Next, at school events or other children’s birthday parties, casually mention that you pay your child or children in Bitcoin because they are very intelligent and technologically advanced. The other parents who hear this will immediately believe their child is at risk of being unfamiliar with current technology and likely start finding how they too can pay an allowance in SATS. By the time next birthday party rolls around, it is also likely you will hear other parents bragging about how they now pay their children an allowance in Bitcoin. By these means, the everyday users of SATS will exponentially increase.

How can a child pay for goods and services with Bitcoin though?
AFAIK the most commonly accepted way is through selling Bitcoin for fiat and then paying with it. This is done through an exchange issued card. But you have to be an adult to use that.
They could in theory use a Bolt Card but that's not massively adopted yet.

1 option might be to have an "account" on blue wallet which is theirs & they can watch it grow or ask for permission to spend

Hmmm…good point. My recommendation would also have to be a long lesson in saving or hodling until more payment and purchase options are available. TBH, my post was somewhat meant to be humorous and poke fun at the way many, but not all, modern parents are obsessed about their children seeming the brightest and having the most potential.
You made a good point and I am sending some sats your way.
