A high growth market... Over the last decade, there has been an increased awareness of the benefits of early childhood education and arts education. Studies have demonstrated the benefits of early intervention in education. Parents seek opportunities for their children to learn and develop skills at an early age, continuing through elementary school. This increased awareness has been coupled with a cutting of funds in education, especially in the areas of art and physical education. In some areas of the country, programs in these areas have been cut completely, requiring parents to seek alternative programs. According to The National Arts Education Association, approximately 45% of public schools do not have a full-time visual arts teacher. Based on this, our concept is continuing to expand nationwide.

Experienced management team... Our management team has already grown and developed the popular Computertots program that has provided classes to over a million children. Mary Rogers, co-founder of Computertots leads our experienced management team. This team has extensive experience in education, art, business development, public relations, building strategic alliances and franchise training and support.
