Last week my class was studying economics. We always have fun discussing the who, where, and why of money, goods, and services. One of the projects we tried out for this year was the build-a-business plan. Kids were asked to fill out a business proposal, present it to their peers, and then try to solicit "investments" in the form of votes. Here are a few of the more amusing/creative ideas:
---Jewelry that changes color according to your outfit
---A flavored French fry restaurant where the food has no fat or calories
---Sunglasses that play music
---A chore-doing service for kids (can you tell we're in an affluent area? Ugh!)
---Hovercars that run on "organic" fuel
but the best one by far:
---A genetic mutation company in which you can order plants, animals, or even people with special genetic mutations. Paris Hilton is the spokes model because she loves her new wings.
