Entrepreneur Introduction to Primary Schools

Every year in our county the kids enter an entrepreneur competition where they come up with their own design of a product (ages 11-12) What would be a good lesson to cover with kids beforehand or a good entrepreneurial video to give them taste of their scope etc

If you're in Ireland then you may need an IP proxy switcher to view the videos

Getting them to understand who they are designing the product for is always a good start!
