Homeschooling Your Entrepreneurial Child

Welcome to Yellow House Book Rental! We are primarily a homeschool curriculum, rental service. However, we offer a variety of services. You can compare each one, at Yellow House Book Rental, and decide which is best for your family.

27 million or 51% percent of Americans are starting or running a business. Your child may already be in that percentage.

Are you aware that “recent research clearly indicates that in some cases, environment triggers genetic tendencies, certain situations trigger genes that would otherwise lie dormant”? James V. Koch

It is very important to know your child, see their strengths and help them develop those strengths. How Am I Smart?, or the updated version, 8 Great Smarts by Kathy Koch was so helpful to me in learning how to find these strengths in my children.

According to multiple studies, there may be an "entrepreneur gene"--or possibly people with certain genetic characteristics and personality traits that are more likely to be successful entrepreneurs than others. They have been “hard-wired” that way.

As your child grows, learns, and develops you may spot many of the characteristics that entrepreneurs have in common. 

I have written a guest post over at My Joy-Filled Life, Are You Raising an Entrepreneur? Find out what we did in our home to encourage our entrepreneurial son who now is a very successful owner of several software companies.

One of the many perks to homeschooling is the extra time that your children have available to pursue their passions. Helping them find their giftings and equipping them to be successful in using their skill sets is a blessing that we as parents have been given. Learn how to spot an entrepreneurial mindset in your child and help him refine these skills so he can soar into adulthood with the tools needed to be his own boss.

What interested your entrepreneurial child most right now? How are you helping develop his or her skills? I'd love to find out. Comment below.

 YOU can listen to the interview with my son right here Matthew shares his perspective on being homeschooled and how he successfully pursued  his entrepreneurial goals.

Enjoying the journey,
