When We started: Rhythmic Kids™ Australia started as a small home business in March 2005 after it became impossible to purchase quality musical instruments for our first child, Molly. After much exploring and research, we have managed to locate quality instruments to encourage children’s minds with a view to motivation. Why We started: After 12 years in the corporate world and becoming first-time parents in May 2004, with the birth of our daughter, Molly, I needed a part-time business which enabled me to have the flexibility of working from home. A firm believer that “Music Makes Happiness”, I am inspired and passionate by what musical instruments do for adults, let alone children! I have loved music all my life; I am fascinated by the rhythm in instruments. Rhythmic Kids™ Australia was formed purely out of a love of music and watching how even simple musical rhythms and beats can make children happy and enthusiastic. Your vision & dreams for the company: The Rhythmic Kids™ Australia vision is to promote the use of music to educate, stimulate and motivate children throughout Australia. Rhythmic Kids™ Australia has dreams to grow as a company that has exposure via profitable fundraising for childcare centres and playgroups and retail outlets throughout the country. It will be known as the company that puts smiles on the faces of children everywhere hence “Music Makes Happiness!” Benefits of Rhythmic Kids™ products: Invest in your child’s future! Choose a healthier way to stimulate their mind, body & soul with a 100% fat-free and practical fun way for kids to learn. Music can shape your children's lives. People of all ages and all backgrounds are influenced by music in their lives. Music not only promotes a sense of interaction, co-ordination, balance and security, but also helps us express our unique personalities. It is this power of music that Rhythmic Kids™ wants to promote to children to help shape their lives. Music promotes creativity, expression, social acceptance, and is a whole lot of fun, so the educational benefit of exposing your children to musical instruments is something no child should be deprived of. Quality of products: Rhythmic Kids™ Australia is proud to only promote products that are of a quality that we have tried and tested AND carefully select for our own children. In choosing any new products for the Rhythmic Kids™ range, we factor in the following considerations: - How well is the item made? Is the item safe for children?
- Is it going to be fun to play with?
- Does it make a pleasant (the appropriate –possibly accurate??) rhythmic sound?
- Is it attractive and fun to look at?
- Is it going to offer value for money?
- AND lastly; did it pass the Molly Moocha (our 3 year old) AND the Charlie Chubba Bubba (7 month old) durability test?
- If the new product passes these checks, then it has a real chance of making it to the product range.
