Teaching business to kids

A hands-on education enrichment program

Income, outcome and how come

Mind Your Business provides elementary and middle school students with a greater understanding of business and finance fundamentals.

Founded with decades of business experience and a passion for education, Mind Your Business uses business simulation techniques and real business examples to engage students.

Mind Your Business is a phenomenal multi-session enrichment program. Students are fully engaged as they have the opportunity to team with peers to create their own company. The founders work so well with our teachers to make it seamlessly fit into the curriculum. One of the best enrichments we have offered at West Elementary!

Our interactive approach makes sophisticated concepts fun to learn!

In Mind Your Business, students work with a team as a mock company over several sessions. Each time, their companies face new challenges which require them to make strategic choices, put plans into action as they build their product, and analyze the results of their decisions.

(The fun and learning are real, the money they make is not.)

Developing life skills for future success

Mind Your Business is designed to give students the opportunity to experience and develop many important skills:

  • Basic business operations and financial literacy

  • Math applications through financial calculations

  • STEM concepts through production and inventory management

  • Social Emotional Learning through teamwork and group problem solving

  • Communication, presentation, and leadership skills

  • Professionalism

 

We are inspiring future business leaders!
