5 Ways to Teach Your Kids to Be Great
Entrepreneurs
As an entrepreneur, do you find yourself struggling to explain what your job is to your kids?
Entrepreneurial curriculum is rarely part of the formalized education system in the USA, so
exposing your kids to Entrepreneurism will likely to be a process you begin at home. Some say
it s e er too late, ut e say it s e er too early to i trodu e your kids to e trepreneurship by
fosteri g Kidpre eurs.”
The Har ard Graduate “chool of Education and the National Foundation for Teaching
Entrepreneurship found that, Youth ho are taught about entrepreneurship show a positive
change in attitude and strong success orientation, and are more likely to be focused on
academic and professional achievements, aspirations, ad leadership.
1. Allow Kids Space to Brainstorm
So e of the est produ ts a e fro ild ideas, so do t put your pare tal rai limitations on your kids, let them dream big. Then move to step two.
2. Coach Them on Goal Setting
So they have big dreams and ideas, show them how to formalize those goals
with a paper and pencil, or typed out on the tablet. Focused goal setting
teaches accountability.
3. Support Their Successes, but More Importantly, Redirect Their Failures into
Seeing New Opportunities
Entrepreneurs think different. Coach them when they fail or have set-backs to
always bring a set of optimistic eyes to the issue to find opportunity.
4. Introduce Them to a Business Plan
Starting your Kidpreneur writing their first business plan now may sound
extreme, however a simple outline will help them learn structure. Create your
own or refer to the examples of Kidpreneur Business plans at Kidpreneurs.org.

5. Invest in Them
Support your kids start-up drea s y i esti g i the . But do t just give them money, assign dollar amounts for extra jobs your kids
could help with around the house, go over the parameters just like a
client and at the end, review their service. Start them off early with
the business process.
