Guidelines
CREATIVITY WINS
The most successful entrepreneurs sell products that solve a problem, are well priced, or that customers simply can’t resist!
Prepare For The Market
BUILD CONFIDENCE
As children learn free market principles by creating goods, engaging customers and executing their business plan, their confidence soars!
RegisterA farmers’ market…
run entirely by KIDS!
Starting with just 3 locations in Utah in 2017, the Children’s Entrepreneur Market has since hosted over 400 markets, allowing 43,000+ youth vendors to participate. With the demand for this real-world experience at an all-time high, the markets will be operating in 44 states by the end of 2025, helping young entrepreneurs thrive for years to come.

How the markets work
PARTICIPATION
Entrepreneurs ages 5 to 17 can participate in our farmer’s/craft market run entirely by kids!
PRODUCTS
Children can sell anything! It can be handmade, store-bought, food, games or services.
SELLING
At our markets, the kids must do the selling! They are in charge of all aspects of their business. (No bartering allowed.)
BOOTHS
All booths are a 10’x10′ space and families bring all their own supplies (table, canopy, etc).
PARENTS
Mom and Dad can help set up, then get to sit back and watch their kiddos run the show, all on their own!
REGISTER
Our markets sell out so you’ll want to sign up early! Registrations are required, and there are no refunds or waiting lists.
Kids love these markets!
