Few funds fit both bills.
One that does is the Stein Roe Young Investor fund , which ranks among Money's picks for the top 100 mutual funds this year. Another option is the Monetta Express Program . Its website offers educational material that is perfect for the pre-teen audience. Another drawback is that these funds have above-average expenses, which will make it tough for them to outperform over the long run. If low minimums are more important to you than a website with a lot of bells and whistles, consider another of Zweig's recommendations.
