Thinkertots
Thinkertots provides developmentally enriching programs for children from birth to 5 years. Our focus on the under four market fills the availability gap in educational programs for small children. Thinkertots classes are structured much like pre-school, but seem like playtime to the children, who look forward to these fun sessions. Thinkertots is a franchise that gives you the opportunity to make a difference, while owning your own business.
