The Non-Profit Pensapreneur Kids, Inc, will be hosting their annual Pensacola Children’s Business Fair this year on November 7th and November 14th from 10am-12pm CST to create a space for kids ages 5-17 to learn these skills and put them to use in a marketplace format.
This year’s fair will be in an organized online format using professional quality virtual conferencing software to prioritize the health and safety of both children and adults while keeping the mission of cultivating curiosity, leadership, and resilience.
If you’re like me you’ve probably found yourself saying “Wow I wish I would have been taught x, y, or z in school”, right? Skills like financial literacy, resourcefulness, improvisation, resilience, and many more necessary skills vital to success are far overlooked in the schooling system, putting our kids at an even greater disadvantage than we were with the world they are inheriting.
Kids from all over bring their startup businesses to the virtual marketplace to get a taste at all of the necessary life skills that go into running a business. Participants’ businesses range from selling slime to babysitting services, graphic tees, body scrubs, vegan dog treats and everything in between — to create a melting pot of young creativity, building the future entrepreneurs of America.
