I try to teach my kids (age 6, 8, 9) both technology and entrepreneurship, but not necessarily together.

We do LEGOs, programming, robotics camps, etc.

But they also have a great time with their own little business. We have a huge garden and every week or two, they put all the extra produce in their wagon, walk around the neighborhood, and sell it. They usually make between $20 and $80 (when you're cute, $2 for a lemon is an easy sell). I love that it teaches them skills beyond entrepreneurship (math, conversation skills, money, etc.).

Here's one of them in action: http://instagram.com/p/tyEpthi9oZ/
