Journey Through The Code - Lesson 8



This post is sponsored and any curriculum purchased through my affiliate code will provide commission and compensation to the owner of Puddle Jumping Blog. 


Welcome to my journal blog entries about what it is like to use the Kingdom Code curriculum that teaches kids financial responsibility and how to build a business God's way. Today we are sharing about Lesson 8 in our Journey Through The Code, sponsored by The Kingdom Code. Come with us on a 27-lesson journey as we journal about our experience with The Kingdom Code curriculum!

We were asked to have our child choose a viable business before the end of Lesson 2 and to complete the Treasure Builder Permit form, so my daughter actually chose a goods-based business of crocheting and selling her items.

Here's our experience with LESSON 8:










OUR REMARKS ABOUT ACTIVITIES IN THE LESSON THAT WE FOUND TO BE ENGAGING:

This lesson was focused mainly on getting organized and keeping a ledger. The getting organized part was fun for my child even though her things typically look like organized chaos. She knows where everything is located.The ledger part is more challenging for my math-anxious-terrified child. So, this will help her get past her fear of numbers as she hopefully sees her business grow.

SUGGESTIONS, CHANGES, OR ADDITIONS MADE THAT WORKED PARTICULARLY WELL FOR OUR FAMILY:

I love the hands-on activities. I also really enjoyed these discussion questions that my daughter readily answered in great detail. It was fun to discuss this with her.

RECORDED OBSERVATIONS OF CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, MONEY SKILLS, BIBLE KNOWLEDGE, LIFE SKILLS, SOCIAL SKILLS, OR POSITIVE BEHAVIORS EXHITIBED OR ACQUIRED BY MY CHILD THAT I DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTE TO THE KINGDOM CODE CURRICULUM:

As I mentioned, I am hopeful that her math skills will improve throughout this process and she will become more comfortable keeping track of her profits and making change. I really like all of the easy-to-follow instructions in this lesson and especially like the idea of keeping a sales backpack filled with the necessary items.


The program emphasizes service businesses, even though we are free to choose a goods-related business instead. The reason they stress service is because business usually requires less money since a goods business requires purchasing supplies and figuring out costs for each item. Service teaches children the ability to please someone else in order to receive compensation. If you choose a goods business, many of the activities will have to be adapted and cost/sale price must be taught thoroughly so profitability is achieved.
