If you want to teach your children the power of making their money work for them (instead of the other way around), what better way to do so than by introducing them to a few solid, big-name dividend stocks? After all, billionaire investor Warren Buffett bought his first stock at 11 years old, and he's built his fortune riding the success of some of most famous dividend stocks in history. Of course, Buffett's father was also a stockbroker at the time, but it still highlights what can be accomplished when we start early teaching our kids the potential held in the greatest wealth-building medium in existence.
To get you started, here are three such dividend stocks both you and your kids can love: First up, Disney (NYSE: DIS ) has raised its dividend seven times over the past decade, and it now offers a reasonable 1.2% yield. Next, what kid wouldn't enjoy the thought owning a piece of Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL ) , which quite possibly serves as the enabler of their thousands of monthly text messages, given the 37.4 million iPhones the company sold last quarter alone? Finally, I'm offering Nike (NYSE: NKE ) as another great dividend stock both you and your children can love.
