The stock markets are very risky for children to learn the ways to invest. Many children become speculators/ gamblers if they aren't disciplined in their behaviour after they reach the age of 18. I think the probability of winning is about 20% for novice players. In case they are lucky to win in their initial investment, their confidence is s multiply many times n they may decideff to invest on credit. If the market turns the other way,  they may incur heavy loses n even become financial delinquent. Their parents may have to foot the bills outstanding.

Hence I will not teach my children to learn investments
