Make it Pay on "Take Your Kids to Work Day"

This Thursday is Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day. It's a great opportunity to begin to teach your children the skills of entrepreneurship. The future of America lies in the next generation of entrepreneurs. Abbey Fleck was just 8 years old when she had the brainstorm of a million dollar idea to create a method to microwave bacon while draining off the fat. With her Dad she developed the "Mak'in Bacon Dish" and the rest was history. While your kids may not have the next big idea you can get them started on the path to business ownership in many ways including:

• help your kids start a summer business

• forget the boring number-crunching and get creative with a Make a Business Card Workshop
• make business fun using computer games such as The Sims 2: Open for Business
