If you're looking to support small businesses this holiday season, you're in luck! The YouthBiz Marketplace features more than 30 young entrepreneurs selling their hand-crafted products.
Here are a few of my favorite gift ideas:
- Freeze-dried snacks from Mile High Freeze Dry, created by 14-year-old Reina Crowley
- Miniature stuffed animals from Mimi's Minis, created by 10-year-old Amelia Moore--this is her first Marketplace!
- Ornaments from Ellis' Christmas Ornaments, created by 6-year-old Ellis (he's saving up to buy a lego set!)
I hope that you'll take a few minutes to show your support for these talented and hard-working entrepreneurs by shopping at YouthBiz Marketplace.
