My 11 year old started his pet store today with SCM's Business math series. He named it Creeping Things, and is having a fantastic time. He says he feels like a real business owner. So far he has purchased his inventory and calculated his dollar amount that he had to pay for it. He was concerned about spending too much right away, but in the end realized out of the total 10,000 that he has to spend, he didn't quite spend 2,000 on inventory. It'll be fun to see how it turns out. His little brother (9) is already writing out an order of things he wants to 'buy.' I told him that Creeping Things (idea taken from Genesis) is not quite open for business, but if he could come back in a couple of weeks...
Fun! Can a child do more than one book of business math or they exactly the same?
