Oftentimes, we try to teach our kids to be thankful the week before Thanksgiving because this is the time of year to show our thanks. True thanks cannot be taught one week at a time, but needs to be taught and modeled year-round. To get you started over the month of November, try some of the ideas in the article below.

I'm Being Interviewed
Tomorrow night (Thursday, Nov 10), I will be interviewed about
my eBay business. For those of you who don’t know, eBay has
allowed me an opportunity to teach my kids a variety of skills –
writing, decision making, research, finances, entrepreneurialism,
income/expenses and so on. On Thursday, Steve will interview
me about my eBay business so we can share tips we have
learned the hard way, as well as some mistakes we made along
the way. In addition to eBay tips, I hope to have time to discuss
how I balance my day between family, homeschool, housekeeping
and business.
Please send me your most burning question about eBay or time
management to my e-mail address kerry{at}CurriculumConnection{dot}net.
At the end of the call, I plan to answer your questions.
If you want to listen to the call, you must register at our Family
E-Biz Expo page. http://familyebiz.com/expo.htm Once you

Business 101 - Future Entrepreneurs
I know that many of you who have older kids are looking for
practical, yet educational studies. Personally, I believe business
skills are the best practical skills your kids can have. All of our
kids have published or produced their own products and sell them
at book fairs and on the internet. My daughters are interning with
Curriculum Connection & Family E-Biz to learn real-life bookkeeping,
inventory, customer relations, shipping skills, and gain an
entrepreneurial perspective to run businesses. They can use
these skills for the rest of their lives, just to earn a little extra
income for their future family or to build businesses with their husbands.
Starting a business is a terrific way to help your teen prepare
for adulthood. I know that many of you have teens that
attended our Teen Business Workshop. Now, you can have
further business & entrepreneur education – Business 101!

Family E-Biz Expo:
Our Very Own Conference
For several years our company, Curriculum Connection,
attended a variety of book shows, conferences and seminars.
I always hoped to host our own conference and now we are
having that chance. Steve & I have been planning our Expo
for several months, as we want it to truly be an encouragement
to families and provide information that will give more freedom
and control to their lives.
For that reason, we are very proud to announce Family E-Biz Expo
in
it is definitely for families who want to think outside the box in
terms of education and providing for our families. If you or your
teen want practical, Business 101 advice, this is the place to go.
And, you can’t beat the price compared to other conferences
of this nature.
You may be wondering, “What is the Family E-Biz Expo?”.
The Family E-Biz Expo is a weekend for you and your family to
discover the secrets of jumpstarting your own family business
and gain freedom and control of your own lives in the process.
We see a crying need for families to attain more freedom in their
lives and gain more control over their finances and time. For
this reason, we have been planning the Family E-Biz Expo over
the past year.
