The History of Bring Your Kid to Work Day

Bring Your Kid to Work Day is once a year, but parents and teachers should encourage conversation and experiences with children throughout the year.

Bring Your Kid to Work Day Activity Ideas.

• interview their parent about what they like about their job. Have each kid share what they learned to the group.
• draw a floor plan of their parent's office space or floor they work on and then have them re-design the space to better accomodate people's needs.
• create their own company with a company name, tagline, business cards, product/service price sheet, advertisements etc. and then each child shares with the group. Have them create a market research survey that will help them better plan their 'make believe' company's product / service.
• write about their skills and talents and then have them communicate this at a 'networking party' with the other kids and parents. Have them follow up the networking party by sending thank you e-cards to everyone they met.

• describe each task they are doing and have the child participate in the task
• give money to the child and let them pay for lunch or snacks
• talk about major events in their life that lead them to their career decision
