My first-grade teacher Mrs. Walker gave the class a group project to create a business. The groups decided what they were planning to sell. In my group, we sold snacks. A cash register was available for transactions. I was thrilled with the outcome of this lesson. I came home and begged to have my own business that served other kids.
After a few months, my mom noticed an advertisement on the public library’s website for a Children’s Business Fair. The Acton Children’s Business Fair co-sponsored an event at the public library.
