Sure, you expect your daughter to be up to some funny business.

You just weren’t prepared for it to include her filing the proper paperwork to turn her lemonade stand into an LLC.

Ensure her career stays on the fast track by enrolling her in Madison and Friends Tween’s Junior Buyer program. Every other month, girls ages 9 to 13 meet with the shop’s staff and clothing line representatives to learn about buying for a boutique, predicting trends, and making displays.

The ladies even vote to determine what the store will stock, which is perfect for your tiny entrepreneur.

Who clearly knows how to work it.

Madison and Friends Tween, 1963 North Halsted Street, at Armitage Avenue (312-943-0436 or madisonandfriends.com).
