...or, she will, once we work the numbers...
I made her some iced popsicles yesterday...it seems Nanny had attempted this some times before, without success...
The popsicles came out perfect this time!
Ale wants to sell them to the neighborhood children for $1/each (I told her she really can't do that, since the store in our neighborhood has cheaper ones, but promise her we'll work on pricing and then she can start...I also told her she can make "chocobananos" - frozen chocolate-covered bananas)...This conversation took place at lunchtime...
At 3pm, she calls me to work, and wants to know who gets the money...meaning who gets to keep the profits....
she also wants to know where the "original" money will come from ...meaning the money to buy the supplies for the first batch....
I told her I'll loan her the seed money, and she gets to keep the profits, but she can't spend it, because she has to re-invest it...she got a little confused with the concept of profit, so I promised I'll explain to her when I get home...
Even if she doesn't make much, it'll be a good experience!
Ale goes into business

I have conversations like this with Daisy pretty regularly. . . I think she knows more at 8 than I did at 18.

forgot to add: the difference between the failed and sucessful popsicles was stirring the mix before they froze completely yesterday...Ale has been stirring her new batch herself!
