Educating a child can be a hard thing to do. Children of different ages and social status vary in their levels of cognitive development. The idea of an educational website that appeals to a wide age group of children would be very difficult to achieve. It could also prove to be a fairly expensive endeavor. The best thing to do for your educational website is to keep the target group narrow, at least for the time being.
Once you have seen some success with your educational website you can then think about expanding it to appeal to other age groups of children. This would be the most cost effective solution for your educational website. It is not that you can not immediately have an educational website designed that appeals to several age groups; it would just be very expensive and take a whole lot of time as well. It would be best to chose two closely related age groups, most likely young preschool to first grade children. Then after you have had that educational website established for awhile you can expand into second and third graders. This way you are adjusting in a progressive manner in the cognitive development of the child.
Another great reason to expand and develop your educational website in this way is that you are growing the website with the child. The child that started using your educational website at that preschool age will grow at about the same rate as your educational website. This way you are assuring the child will come back several times to learn and play. You are also establishing customers for the adolescent life of the child through the parents. Also these parents will tell other parents how great your educational website is. They will say how great little Johnny is doing with his colors and ABC’s. This will make those other parents sign their kid on too. Nobody likes to hear that someone else’s kid is better then theirs. It sounds terrible, but use that jealousy to your advantage; it would be great for you business and your educational story.
