Choose something real to make or do. Price it, sell it, deliver it and write down where every dollar went. The first goal is not an imaginary company. It is one honest transaction that can be counted from start to finish.
The reader separates money collected from costs and profit. Then they decide what the profit should do next: replace supplies, save for the next project or pay the person who did the work.
The book is planned. An adult stays involved anywhere money, customers or strangers are part of the project. Mistakes stay in the lesson because eleven dollars is a much better place to learn than eleven thousand.
