MONIQUE: Hi BTN I'm Monique and this is Jack and I live in sunny Port Macquarie with my parents, my three siblings. I run my own small business called Pursew, where I sew purses, pencil cases, masks and tote bags. I first got the idea of sewing from a book in my school library and I taught myself to sew from watching YouTube. I started selling my creations at the local markets when I was about nine years old. Then I decided I wanted to make an Instagram account and I created a website which really helped my business take off. The best part is getting to choose the different fabrics I want to use. I love designing and matching the colours and finding out what works best. During lockdown it did get a bit tough to source my materials as I couldn't walk into the shop and pick out the fabrics I wanted to use. My sewing skills have now progressed to making my own clothes and one day I hope to start a small handmade clothing brand.

SIENNA: Hi BTN I'm Sienna and I'm 15 year old 10 student and business owner based in rural New South Wales. During COVID lockdown last year whilst I was home partaking in online schooling and drinking copious amounts of herbal tea, I noticed a major gap in the market, a new fun aesthetic approach to loose leaf and fruit based tea. Each blend is handcrafted with carefully chosen ingredients and made for different health needs and occasions. The blends are also packaged up in cute pastel coloured cylinders that are environmentally friendly. I love watching what you've created and seeing others enjoy, appreciate and love your products just as much as you do.

DAISY: Hi, I'm Daisy, I'm 10 years old, and I live at Umina beach with my family. My business is a slime business. And it's called Mushroomslime.com. And it's just a fun toy that you get to play with. I used to make slime. And then that's really just how it all evolved. First, I had to get the supplies. Secondly, once I had all the supplies, I had to get some stock. And then third of all, I had to start getting some orders. So, I had to start making things like my website. Because I have started my business in lockdown I couldn't like sell, like at stores and stuff. But I kind of found a way like using my website. The best part has been just seeing people support me throughout my business. Bye.

FINN: My name's Finn, I live in the Gold Coast and I'm a bee keeper.

For Finn one pet just wasn't enough.

FINN: I own a dog and a couple of thousand bees.

Finn bought his own hive on his 10th birthday after a lot of saving and some very welcome birthday money.

FINN: Lots of my friends and family blessed me with money instead of presents so I could buy my own things. And I saved up all of that money, saving and saving, looking for the goal of that hive.

He even had some money left over to make the whole garden bee friendly.

FINN: I bought practically most of these flowers and planted them. Flowers please my dad because he loves gardens he practically loves any plants except for weeds and his dad did my granddad loved them, so I guess it runs in the blood.

But while gardening might run in the family, Finn was the first to try bee-keeping. He had to learn all of the tricks of the trade and get some special protective clothing. Of course, these little guys can sting so you have to know what you're doing and you need to get a permit to keep them. Still, in the past few years there's been a boom in backyard beekeeping. Bee experts say you don't need a lot of land to keep bees and it's great for the environment, because bees help to pollinate plants to help them grow. And while keeping a hive takes a lot of work, for the bee keepers there's this reward - sweet, tasty honey.

FINN: We are doing my first harvest, which I am pumped for.

Finn's now selling his honey and plans to grow his business.

FINN: My goal is to get five hives before uni but my biggest goal is to get a car before my brother does. Wait, let me rephrase that. I'm GOING to get a car before my brother does.

But he also wanted his bees to help others. So, he decided to auction off his very first litre of honey and give the money to a charity in the East African country of Malawi

FINN: This project will help families get their own bee hive so they can generate an income.

All up he's raised more than 3000 dollars and he says he'll keep donating 10 percent of his honey profits to charity.

FINN: I believe me, my bees and my flow hive can change the world.

A 10-year-old on the Gold Coast has saved up all his pocket money to start a pretty sweet business. Finn is making honey. Well, actually, it's the bees making the honey, but Finn's worked hard to learn how to keep the bees and collect his product.

You’re about to meet a 10-year-old entrepreneur who’s running his own business!

DEEGAN: Hi BTN my name is Deegan.

SAM: And my name is Sam.

BOTH: And we are the co-founders of Pretty Rooster.

DEEGAN: Well we met in year 2.

SAM: Yeah, we met in year 2 and then really became friends in year 4 when we had a project together and we've been best friends ever since.

DEEGAN: My school nickname is Pretty boy.

SAM: And my nickname's rooster.

DEEGAN: So, we mushed them together and got Pretty Rooster.

SAM: Well, Pretty Rooster is a T-shirt company started by Deegan and I.

DEEGAN: I've always loved drawing and Sam said one day why don't you put your drawings on a t-shirt and get some printed and stuff so then we joined together and made t-shirts.

SAM: We launched Pretty Rooster in November 2017.

SAM: It took several months to work it out and get all the things ready for the website, and advertisement and the printer.

SAM: The designs represent mining in one is a hard hat and one's the boot, the steel cap boot and we wanted to help kids connect with their parents if they're doing fly in fly out so they can both be wearing the same t-shirt and take photos of one in the mine and one at home.

DEEGAN: So, my mum works at Heathgate and she's a HR manager so she has to fly out every 2 weeks and stays there for a few days.

SAM: And my dad is a mining engineer and when I was very young he always did fly in fly out so barely ever got to see him. So, he doesn't do that now, but we wanted to support kids that that is happening in their life.

DEEGAN: We've had lots of people asking for t-shirts they want us to make and lots of orders.

SAM: It's been amazing the support we've got lots of businesses have looked into and asked for us to design and produce a t-shirt for them.

DEEGAN: We've had about 60 orders since November.

SAM: We're funding the business all with our own pocket money and our main goal is to get our pocket money back and we've also had to sell several things.

DEEGAN: Like I've sold my drum kit to pay off.

SAM: And I've done lots of jobs mowing the lawn going over to help my grandma. Doing lots of things to earn money.

DEEGAN: We do wanna print on some other clothing items not just t-shirts.

SAM: Like hats and maybe ties and shirts.

SAM: And hopefully once we get really successful we'll be able to get our own printers.

SAM: Some advice for younger kids and other kids who would like to start their business is don't just think about it you have to actually do it 'cause if you just say `Oh I should do that I should do that' it never gets done. That happened with us a bit so you have to actually build up the momentum and get it going.
