We've been 'live' with the website since December of 2021.
Started selling for $40/pair. Sold some. Dropped the price to $29/pair and sold more. Currently selling for $20/pair and that seems to be the right price point for these.
We've sold ~450 of the original 800 pairs and I still have just less than $2000 outstanding from the original investment.

Ludwig wore the pair we sent him in a couple of videos which was great for a short-term bump in sales. https://www.reddit.com/r/LudwigAhgren/comments/xmdvf5/does_a...
About a year and a half ago my (then) 14yo son wanted some Among Us themed slides. They didn't exist so I decided it would be a fun project for us to get some made. He drew up some sketches, we got in touch with some factories via Alibaba, went back and forth on prototypes, and ended up with a bunch of slide sandals in our garage.We worked together on setting up a simple Shopify website...

Looking for someone part-time to tally hours, submit invoices, manage payroll, book some travel... what is the best answer for a tiny business?
And the odds of making it to the hospital in time if you need an emergency c-section or start bleeding out are pretty slim.
There was an article someone posted a few months ago about negotiating to a mutually beneficial position but: 1) I can't find it 2) I'd love to hear other people's tips
Ford Taurus introduced a 'parent key/child key' concept a few years ago that did things like limit stereo volume and top speed. This takes it one further.
No fretting about stupid accidents! No fretting about drunk driving!

Don't want to give the impression that he's spelling well or writing quickly :)
Our 2-y-o is an entirely different person with much much different development patterns.
A friend recommended trying gameQuery out next time - looks a little tidier - the one I used was all compressed JS and kind of ugly to work in: http://gamequery.onaluf.org/
This past weekend he said, "Dad, let's play Shadow of the Colossus!" I said, "No." He paused for a moment and said, "Dad... how do video games work?" I paused for a moment and said, "You know what? Let's make one!"
So we sat down at the computer together, did some quick research on available simple JS game engines (I was hoping for something easy and HTML5 but nothing surfaced...) and decided on the type of game to make. After that we had some conversations about gameplay mechanics and characters. We talked around characters for a bit and he sketched out some ideas. Mr. Muscle and Crocodilehead were born.
I picked apart the (horrible compressed JS) code a little bit to figure out how the game worked and then we looked through sprites together. After identifying the various sprites he set to work, drawing base sprites (about 10 of them for Mr. Muscles and four for Crocodilehead) and a background image.
While he slept that night, I scanned in all of his sprites and started resizing/animating them.
He critiqued my work in the morning suggesting the Crocodilehead should not puke blood on people when attacking (you can still see a bit of the residue in the game now) and that Mr. Muscles should not shoot fire out of his hands when doing the megapunch.
After that it was mostly just tweaking and farting around in photoshop.
He got a good look at the code this time around and has a pretty solid base understanding of the relationship between files, images, servers and browsers thanks to a web page we built together a few months ago: http://audenneedham.com/volcanoes/ (he wireframed that one, wrote the content, selected and helped to resize the images, did the Wikipedia searches for pages to link to and helped to edit the HTML...)
Nothing too hairy for a 4-y-o:
1) identify interest (which it sounds like you have)
2) find a platform (a friend recommended http://gamequery.onaluf.org/ for our next attempt)
3) brainstorm
4) draw
5) fiddle
I hope my kid grows up to be his own boss ;)
