Kids Have Big Ideas — They Just Need a Place to Start
Most kids are never taught how to turn their creativity into something real. School often teaches how to follow directions, but not how to think like an entrepreneur, solve problems, or build something from scratch.
Kid Founder was created to help kids take action on their ideas through simple exercises, creative thinking, and step-by-step business-building activities that make entrepreneurship approachable and exciting.

We Believe Kids Are More Capable Than Most People Think
Kid Founder exists to help children develop confidence, creativity, leadership, and entrepreneurial thinking at an early age.
We believe entrepreneurship teaches more than business. It teaches initiative, resilience, communication, and ownership.
Our mission is to help kids realize they can create value, solve problems, and bring ideas to life.

Meet the founder
Built by a dad. For his daughters.
Jamey Ice — musician, real-estate operator, dad of two — wrote Kid Founder for his own kids first. Twenty years of building companies, no business class, no degree. Every page in the book is the version he wishes he'd had at his own kitchen table.
What started as a workbook for two girls in Fort Worth turned into a workbook for any kid, anywhere, who wants to build something real.
