Children’s Entrepreneur Market is a series of events where children can gain firsthand experience operating a small business. The program has taken place in 225 cities, with at least 408 markets hosted.
The markets are run by kids. They do everything. Parents aren’t allowed to engage with customers, answer questions or handle money, but they can support their children in doing all of the above.
Most of the markets are part of festivals or other events, so there will be a good chance of a built-in customer base.
