Overview
Help kids understand how money is earned, how skills create opportunities, and how business ideas can become income
Earning Power is a financial literacy book for kids ages 7-12 that connects real-world money skills with jobs, pay, careers, business math, and entrepreneurship.
Through five connected activities, young learners move step by step from understanding how people get paid to comparing career paths, earning through skills and services, calculating business results, and evaluating a simple business idea.
5 CONNECTED MONEY SKILLS ACTIVITIES
1. JOBS, PAY & INCOME
Explore salary, hourly pay, project pay, commission, pay frequency, gross pay, deductions, and net pay. Students calculate earnings and compare different pay structures.

5. BUILD A BUSINESS: FROM IDEA TO PROFIT
Complete an entrepreneurship capstone using customer needs, market research, competitors, resources, pricing, expected sales, revenue, profit, and feasibility to decide whether a plan should Launch, Improve, or Rethink.
