Kids In Business: Sites That Encourage The Kidpreneuer

Have you been thinking about starting a business that the family can work at together?

Has the entrepreneur bug bitten your child?

Today I wanted to focus on websites that cater to helping your child(ren) and/or family find valuable information and resources that can help you accomplish your work at home dreams.

The first one that comes to mind is Show Kids The Money a site that has a bunch of business ideas for kids.

Show Kids The Money not only gives kids ideas for businesses but they provide articles that help kids (and parents, too) decide why they should start their own business but also gives them a list of helpful business tools.  Keep in mind that Mom & Dad might have to help them grow their business in the beginning.

Another great site to help kids start a business is Internet Based Kids.  Run by this teen’s family, they have the know-how to help you get started.

Be sure to sign up for their free parent’s guide to helping your child start their own business when you visit their site.

This site also has resources for kids interested in starting their own business.  In addition, they have a great parent FAQ section that will answer a lot of your questions.

Kids-In-Biz.com is full of great kids-in-biz articles, ideas and inspiration.

These sites are great examples of how easy it is for your ‘tween or teen to start their own business.  Encourage your kidpreneuer – you never know – you just might be working for them one day.

  1. Thanks for the links! My oldest son has been looking online for ways he can make money! He is so upset he is not old enough for a job, he is convinced he can make it online.

  2. Stephanie says:

    What a great idea, I wish things like this were available when I was young. I can’t wait until my kids are a little older so we can get them involved in the things we do.

  3. Andrea Stein says:

    What a great resource – thanks for putting this up

  4. Andre Stein says:

    Thanks for the links. I think it’s important that we encourage our kids to think about the value of money at an early age (without creating an obsession) and this list is a good reference point.
