What if your child's first business started this week?
Most kids are taught to:
Spend money
Ask for money
Wait for money
But not:
How to create itThis book changes that
Through a fun and engaging story, your child will learn how to:
- Come up with a business idea
- Turn creativity into products and services
- Work with others as a team
- Solve real problems people will pay for
As shown early in the story, even a simple idea can grow into something exciting when kids take action and work together .
Follow Jayden and his friends
It starts with one idea:
What if we started our own businesses... together? (page 3)
What begins as a simple thought turns into a full business fair where each child builds something unique.

- Some build
- Some solve real problems
And when customers arrive...
Everything becomes real.
