Startup of the Week - Kidaround

by Startacus Admin
Summer’s finally here and if you’re a parent you’ll no doubt be already trying to plan how to keep the kids entertained before the normality of school or nursery returns once more.
Finding new and interesting things to do as a family can be a real issue at times and of course as your children grow older, their likes change too, meaning that you’re continually on the lookout for new activities and events that will match their ever changing interests.
Now however, thanks to our latest Startup of the Week, finding new activities and the like for your children is all set to be a whole lot easier.
Kidaround is an app which enables parents to discover, discuss and book activities to suit their children’s needs and interests.
As a parent you can use the app to identify and discover events and activities in your local area that match your child’s interests. Kidaround doesn’t just list events though - it also lets you book your tickets where relevant and with no booking fees or additional hidden charges it couldn’t be simpler!
Of course if you’re an event organiser, you can become a Kidaround Event partner and use the platform to showcase your event and thereby reach lots of potential new customers. Kidaround will in essence help you minimise the ‘empty seat’ syndrome that event organisers everywhere fear!
