Early
entrepreneurs
For something fun and educational for your children this

brownies, babysitting or washing cars, and then take photos and
prepare a write-up about their venture and submit it online. This

and finance, while having fun along the way. There are prizes,
a distinguished judging panel and an easy online submission
platform. The competition is open until 15 August, for kids aged
