Entrepreneurs
So, Trent is going to be my little entrepreneur. He is always asking me what he can do to make money. He also always wants to make things to sell. He decided to make some Halloween decorations and sell them out side. He colored an empty yogurt container black and then glued a pumpkin that he had made on top of the upside down container. He made two, but sold one to Tyler. Tyler seems to always buy the stuff he makes. Anyway, they got some boxes and made some signs. At first they just sat on the porch, then I told them that I didn’t think anyone could read their signs from there.
So they moved to the driveway. I helped them make some bigger signs, then I tried to think of something else they could sell along with the single Halloween decoration. I grabbed a box of granola bars, and made a sign for that. The kids were all out of school, so a neighbor lady was walking by taking her kids to the park. I heard her ask Trent what he was selling and for how much. I went out and helped him, because he didn’t have any change. She sent her daughter home to get her purse. She picked up Trent’s decoration and said she had to buy it because it was so awesome and she got some granola bars. She gave him a dollar and he was in heaven. They had sold everything so I told them to put away their shop so they could come help me get apples.
