Shaping Entrepreneurial Attitudes among Young Children on the Basis of the 'Entrepreneurial Kids' International Project

Entrepreneurship is one of the key competencies that should be developed in the educational process. However, in the form of a specific subject with particular objectives and outcomes, it only appears in secondary school. Younger children are involved in direct or indirect entrepreneurial activities in a variety of activities. However, these are not planned and not evaluated. Preschool and early primary school children also cannot benefit from the offer of projects or competitions outside of school due to the limited number of opportunities and because they often focus on economic aspects rather than the development of soft skills, which in children aged 3–10 seem to be more important for their overall development. This article presents an example of an initiative that can fill these gaps, i.e., the “Entrepreneurial Kids” project. The theoretical foundations of this project, its course, and its results to date are discussed.
