# Week 2: Crafting Together - Involving Your Kids in the Business Journey

Greetings, crafters and parenting maestros! I'm Allie, your crafting guide on this exhilarating journey of managing a small crafting business while embracing the chaos and joy of family life. This week, we unravel the enchanting tapestry of involving your little ones in every stitch, glue, and decision of your crafting empire.
## The Apprenticeship Begins: From Planning to Execution
Your kids are not just spectators; they are eager apprentices waiting to dive into the world of creativity and business. Involve them in the planning stages, let their imaginations run wild, and witness the magic that unfolds when you collaborate on turning dreams into tangible creations.
## Money Matters: Teaching the Art of Finances
Crafting isn't just about glitter; it's about the nuts and bolts of business too. Allow your kids to dip their toes into the world of finances – from budgeting for supplies to understanding the concept of profit. It's not just a lesson in business; it's a lifelong skill they'll carry with them.
## Behind the Scenes: It's Not All Glitter
Crafting is a joyful journey, but it's essential to show your little crafters the less glamorous side too. Let them see that running a business involves dedication, perseverance, and handling challenges. It's a lesson in hard work and resilience, wrapped in the colorful paper of creativity.
## Customer Interaction: Little Entrepreneurs in the Making
Give your kids a front-row seat to customer interaction. Let them take orders, handle money, and navigate the intricacies of customer service. It's not just about crafting; it's about fostering problem-solving skills, building confidence, and creating mini-entrepreneurs in the making.
## Their Voice Matters: Seeking Input and Building Confidence
Involvement goes beyond tasks; it's about valuing their opinions. Ask for their input, encourage them to share ideas, and watch their confidence blossom. It's not just your business; it's a family venture where every voice contributes to the symphony of success.
## Crafting Future Entrepreneurs: Empowering Through Experience
Ultimately, involving your kids isn't just about the present; it's about shaping future entrepreneurs. By sharing the ins and outs of your business, you're providing them with a firsthand education that goes beyond textbooks. One day, they might just use these lessons to craft their own success story.
So, fellow crafting parents, how do you involve your little ones in your creative endeavors? Share your experiences in the comments, and let's inspire each other to nurture the next generation of business wizards. Stay tuned for Week 3: Crafting Your Social Media Presence.
