Projects they can actually do
Not another stack of worksheets
Read the story. Adopt the belief. Take real action.
DinoPreneurs uses literature as the doorway—but every unit leads into conversation, a character-building challenge, and something your child creates or does in the real world.
Choose what to believe
Talk about the lesson, create a belief poster, and connect beliefs to actions.
Do something real
Give, interview, pitch, build, improve, ask questions, and practice courage.
Made for actual homeschool days
Structured enough to guide you. Flexible enough to help you.
The parent-only start explains everything. Blue pages mark Week 1, orange pages mark Week 2, and small flame markers show the essential path when time is tight.
- Read-alouds and QR-linked story options
- Table Talk prompts for family conversation
- Vocabulary, reflection, and standards alignment
- Stickers, challenges, and hands-on creations

Questions parents ask
Before you raise your first DinoPreneur…
Is this really $0 out of pocket with Step Up?
Yes. Eligible Florida families purchase Year One using Step Up For Students scholarship funds. If Step Up does not reimburse your eligible DinoPreneurs Year One purchase, DinoPreneurs will refund you—and your child can keep the curriculum.
What ages is Year One for?
Year One is designed for children in kindergarten through third grade. Parents can adjust writing into conversation, add independence for strong readers, and choose the activities that best fit their child.
How much time does it take?
The full rhythm is five short learning days per week. Busy families can instead choose one 30-minute DinoPreneurs Day each week and complete the essential activities marked in the course book.
Is this only about starting a business?
No. Children practice entrepreneurship through generosity, courage, communication, curiosity, leadership, responsibility, problem solving, and value creation. The business projects give those character lessons somewhere real to go.
Do I need to be an entrepreneur to teach it?
Not at all. The parent-friendly Unit 0 explains the course, the page colors, flexible schedules, materials, and how to adapt the work. Stories, prompts, QR-linked read-alouds, and clear activities guide you.
