[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid who started a beekeeping initiative (already was certified master beekeeper from Cornell) with a local jail, and eventually inmates mastered beekeeping and made honey. Kid packaged and sold the honey for them. Think inmates created a garden too and kid did same with that. There's more to it, but that's the gist. At Stanford.[/quote] That’s funny because I live on the west coast and kid beekeepers are kind of a dime a dozen out here. That and selling eggs from backyard flocks are both common crunchy educated kid activities in my area.[/quote] Once it worked once for someone, it's out there and is getting replicated a million times. Truly unique ECs: no pain, no gain. The kid really had to go through a lot to accomplish something amazing. [/quote] Agree. The most memorable I won't share here - because they are so unique and personal to the kids. One of which is my own. But they are absolutely authentic. And definitely not created by anyone on the outside - entirely-kid developed. Parents may nudge for a certain "output" to have measurable impact after a few years, but the process is driven entirely by kids. The best thing is just to make sure your kids have enough free time to think, create and master something.[/quote]
