Dear All, I reside in Chennai and conduct lots of childrens activities. I am planning to open a childrens libary/activity/counselling center in Shollingnallur. Do you think it will work? Share your thoughts Anybody interested in joining me please contact?
Hi Rashmit, This is a very good idea! I used to take my kid to a activity centre at Adyar during weekends when he was around 18 months old. They charge either for each class or on a monthly or quarterly basis. It was flexible for a working parent like me. Since huby n myself are working, we find time on Sat n Sun to take him to this centre. But it was too far from our home so now we dropped that. On similar lines, as a working parent, i feel if the activity centre is open on weekends it would be more comfortable. Also, if it has flexible options it would be a boon. The library is an excellent idea. U can have children's library for book, toys/cd's too. My 2 cents! Regards, Jaya
Hi, Since u have enough experience in conducting childrens activities, u r aware of the childrens likes and dislikes, selecting a place, decorations, buying books, there are more things to workout, first try to take a survey and then go further, even for buying books, it's not necessary that u should buy only brand new books, there are places where they are selling 100 rs book for even 20 or 30 and u can even sell some books, start with minimal amount and since it is a summer time its very good to start right now, if u have enough time and place u can start a day care center, toy library, kids activity based cd's etc. All the very best to start your own business.
