An entertaining approach to teaching basic economic principles

For the past twenty-nine years, PNC Wealth Management has determined how much it would cost to buy each of the gifts in the holiday song The Twelve Days of Christmas.  The PNC Christmas Price Index is meant as an entertaining approach to teaching basic economic principles. Educators can  use the Christmas Price Index to teach economic trends to middle and high school students.

This year, you are invited to go on a worldwide gift hunt using the web. The  site includes interactive activities, annual results and PNC CPI trends in a Flash presentation, MP3 downloads, etc.
