ENTREPRENEURIAL KIDS

Helping your kids get ahead financially is one area I know all parents think about. This is not something we can depend on our schools to do! It’s starts with us, as parents, teaching them and giving them opportunities to learn. 
One thing we have done over the years is given our kids the opportunity to run small businesses. It helps them learn how to count money, about overhead costs vs. profits, customer service, budgeting, and so much more. 
We have done things like lemonade/popsicle stands, selling their old toys and clothes at yard sells, selling things at children’s farmers markets, and their own pumpkin patch in our front yard (pictured). 
There are so many ways to give children opportunities to earn their own money and learn how to manage it. Look into some ideas in your area. Don’t forget online selling, re-selling of used items, pet-sitting, baby-sitting, lawn care, house cleaning, bake sales, and so much more! 
What are your kids passionate about? How could they earn some money from it? 
I’d love to hear what you’ve done with your kids! Let me know in the comments!
