| Summary: | Entrepreneurship is an essential element in the modern economy. It has become a buzzword, especially in education development at the elementary level. Understanding the needs to equip children with the basic knowledge on the concept of risk, economy and entrepreneurship, we developed an application-based tool to enhance children’s’ perspective of entrepreneurship as a whole. Some of the skill that needs to be emphasised is problem-solving, desire to make money, customer service, tenacity, creativity, leadership, and networking. Teachers and parents should play an important role in children’s development. Based on interviews with kindergarten teachers, they acknowledged that the lack of teaching aid and resources was why kids could not explore the art of entrepreneurship. This project aims to create and introduce entrepreneurship skills to the children in kindergarten and instil interest. This applications-based method will help the children understand entrepreneurship’s essential skill, such as the value of money and the concept of economy and risk. Children can also explore the idea in their own time by watching videos in the applications. The applications will also be used to attract children’s attention and provide parents with alternative learning content. |
