Please can someone recommend decent bank account for children. I want to set one up for my son and daughter, nothing too extravagent, just something I can pay £5 a month into (at the moment) and maybe pocket money.
I already pay £10 a month each into their CTF accounts.
Thanks

not sure if its the best but I had my childrens money in a Halifax Save4It account 5.05% AERsave4it
Save4it is a pocket-money savings account designed especially for children up to 16. At a high rate of 5.05% AER/gross p.a., it’s a great way to help your child get the savings habit, and can be opened with as little as £1.
I also saved £10 a month for them and had this regular saving going into a Halifx Childrens Regular Saver, but the minimum is £10 per monthHalifax Children's Regular Saver
At 10.00% AER/gross p.a., this account is a fantastic way to start saving for your child's future. With a high rate of interest that's fixed for one year, all you need to do is save between £10 and £100 each month and watch your child's money grow.0
