My Little Entreprenuer



My son has become quite the little entreprenuer lately, but at his sister's expense. First, he asked me if he could make and sell something to make money like lemonade. I said sure but it wasn't really the right time of year for that. He also wanted to sell the lemonade for $5 a glass. (Maybe he'll end up in the oil and gas industry.) He was pretty disappointed when I told him the most he could probably charge was 25 or 50 cents.


Later that day he came to me, and asked me to come see the store he set up for Olivia. He had set up a little store with some of his toys he doesn't really play with anymore. He was going to sell them to Olivia for $1 a toy. He even set his piggy bank out where she could put her money. Of course I was the mean mom and told him that was not very fair for Olivia. I gave him some extra jobs to do around the house so that he could earn some extra money. He was not as excited about that.
