Kids started making signs for the lemonade stand )))

After "flipping" (for two hours) through this book, my kids (9, 7, 6) started pulling our cardboard boxes and making signs for their "lemonade stand". They also started thinking and analyzing how many people pass by hour house on a daily basis, and if at least half of them bought the water bottles, how much "profit" they would rake in.

As a parent, I don't want to raise men with a mindset for a 9-5 job but rather offer a wide array of opportunities for their futures, and IF they choose the 9-5 job, at least they knew what their options were.

Game Changer for Kids Craving More

Kid Start Up is informative, easy to follow and packed with useful info that even adult entrepreneurs can utilize (leveraging social media, the right way to build a site, how to make an effective flyer etc).

The book has a really conversational tone, so kids can actually get through it without dozing off, but the lessons they convey are pretty prophetic for all of us. Here are some examples:

1. Hustle. Stop expecting hand outs. Do the work.

2. Just start. Stop with the 200 page business plans. Get your hands dirty and dive in.

3. Be obsessed with your goals. Casually wanting something isn't enough.

Honestly, a lot of adults I know need to be slapped over the head with this book. Our kids loved it too and have plans to launch their next business.

A must for teachers of younger students!

As an elementary school teacher, this book is a MUST! In addition to teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic, we are tasked with teaching 21st Century Skills: creativity, grit, collaboration, etc. This book does exactly that! It offers a kid-friendly, accessible, step-by-step approach to becoming your own Mark Zuckerberg or Mark Cuban. Most books on this topic are meant for adults, but this one includes diagrams, pictures, interactive activities, and kid interviews. I will be ordering a class set for my students so they can all learn to become entrepreneurs!

Skills like identifying business opportunities

Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2017

No one is born knowing how to run a business. Skills like identifying business opportunities, product placement, and pricing strategies take time to develop. But the earlier in life you start developing these skills the better. The book does a great job of trying to do just that for kids! My daughter (11) felt inspired by the other kids her age making money and pursuing businesses, and got some great ideas on how to get involved from the tutorials inside. She's working on her next venture now, one step closer to being a millionaire! Highly recommend

Excellent and Enjoyable Opportunity for Learning for Young Children

I got this for my 7 year old granddaughter who had never really thought of the concepts, but when she read it, she took off! She has big plans, which her homeschooling mom plans to support her in carrying out. Putting these concepts in the minds of children early is a wonderful idea, that they can later build on as they learn.

Bought this book for my 9 year old grandson. He has some good ideas and this will help him realize the steps involved to formalize them into a functioning business. He will also learn first hand that being an Entrepreneur like some family members, is not easy.

Nice Layout. It's a good introduction to entrepreneurship for children. It also provides suggestions for first businesses and also allows for the child to come up with their own ideas.
