When we received the opportunity to review Matthew Toren and Adam Toren’s book, Kidpreneurs: Young Entrepreneurs With Big Ideas, I jumped at the chance. And we really enjoyed it!
First, as a homeschooling mama, this book is great. My five year old was entranced by the illustrations, my seven year old was entranced by the ideas. While going through it together, my seven year old wanted to answer every question and think through each idea. It was a bit advanced for my particular seven year old (which may not be the case for all seven year olds), this initial introduction of concepts was stellar. This is definitely one of those books we’ll be keeping around and referring back to and building on ideas and thoughts. In a homeschooling family, that’s a home run.
Secondly as an entrepreneur myself, it was great having these thoughts and concepts gathered together so well to help my children understand a little better when I say, “Mommy needs to work a bit”. As we went through the book and we’d go through a concept and they’d ask a question about it, Matthew and Adam anticipated that question and defined it.
Are these concepts I could teach my children myself? Sure. But sometimes (and I understand this well as a homeschooling mom) a concept is really better understood when it comes from a different “trusted source” than their momma. Matthew and Adam did a great job on this book creating trust with their readers.
Kidpreneurs: Young Entrepreneurs With Big Ideas, is a great book. My new go-to gift for children 7+. That with a check to help them get started.
