My Dad was adopted, and despite his flaming red beard, the fair skin, freckles, and blue eyes that all his kids have, we didn’t know until recently that both his biological parents were Irish. This gave our family new enthusiasm for the Holiday.
My kids wanted to gently wade into their first public product for sale with some buttons to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.
They ordered the hardware, assembled the pins, and created a “street team” to start selling them around their respective schools. They learned a lot from this test run.
@Jules I couldn’t agree more. We definitely discussed color as a learning point for their next product. It was fun having a “product review” meeting with my kids. My 16 yr old is turning into a pretty good mtg moderator!
We have a rule in our house where the kids have to start a business before leaving High School. It has been awesome. I consider it a “letter” in entrepreneurship.
