From a dress made of fantasy to chocolate with pumpkin: children's economic forum was held in Mogilev district

The Children’s Economic Forum is traditionally held within the framework of the investment forum “Mogilev District – Territory of Opportunities”. Students of educational institutions present their first business ideas and startups, the correspondent of sb.by reports.

The organizers of the children’s economic forum see the goal of forming financial literacy among young people, teaching the basics of business and developing entrepreneurial streak from an early age. By the way, when successful businessmen - participants of the Ivestforum - got acquainted with the ideas of buzzers, in some cases, there was clearly an interest in projects.

Pupils of Rechkov High School presented the project “Heritage in the Trend”. Eighth-grader Sofia Balobina says that her hobbies were supported in labor lessons:

- I embroidery Belarusian ornament, I like to make jewelry with my own hands. It's all handmade: earrings, brooches, bows. It is very cool that the school supports our initiatives, and at this forum we can still demonstrate our talents. What if investors are interested?

A sweet business project was offered by students of the Semukachsk school. Tenth-grader Anya Galagush proudly talked about the family apiary and convincingly provided experts with a business idea for superprofits in the LPH:

- Cream honey is with turmeric, ginger, cinnamon. My mother works at our school as a teacher of computer science and mathematics - calculations can be trusted. If you sell a liter of honey for 15 rubles, you get 12 rubles (minus packaging). But if we turn it into cream honey, package it in jars of 100 grams, sell each for six rubles, then the profit will be 48 rubles.

At the Pashkov school, the investment project was called temptingly – “Take and carry”. It was dedicated to the Year of the Belarusian woman. The guys in their own way decided to materialize the idea that a woman can fit anything in her purse: cosmetics, potatoes and an arena for a baby.

The eco-project of creative schoolchildren from the Makhov school was called “Miracles with their own hands”:

- All children love candy, but there are a lot of fantastics from them - garbage, and after all, the hallmark of our country is cleanliness, sixth-grader Vasilisa Denisits briskly defended the business project. - We thought and decided that you can make beautiful products from fantasy books, because they look like patches of fabrics: napkins, cosmetics, candy, clothes and not only.

Dashkiv High School presented another tasty project - "Ustinovskie Prysmaki", which was named after the local river. Handmade chocolate with pieces of pumpkin and rhubarb did not leave anyone indifferent. And the trend towards healthy eating makes this idea quite commercial.

Interior paintings of ribbons with Belarusian ornamentation from the Mostok school, natural juices, pumpkin chips, apple pastile, cranberries in sugar from a born cook from the Vendorozh school Timofey Presny and other projects captured the attention of experienced businessmen. Teenagers have proved that their approach to business is characterized by a focus on trends, fresh ideas, and an emphasis on environmental and social needs of society.
