Crafty Opportunity
I have come across an opportunity for someone (not me), to make a tourist toy (wooden / metal, moving parts) with a sales outlet already established. The owner of the attraction is an inventor, and has stopped selling the toys because he doesn't like making anything more than once. So visitors to his attraction ask for, but can no longer buy, his toys. I've spoken to him and have his support to try and turn this into a win/win - if I can find the right person/organisation. I don't want money from it, but trying to find someone - or preferably a charity or mentoring service or something like that - to make the items to be sold at the attraction site. The toys need skills which are a mixture of being crafty with small pieces of wood and metal, and patience to get things to work just right. I can be contacted at helen@livingbusiness.co.nz
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
