Happy Birthday Colorado Kids Everywhere!

This idea came about because of getting some friends of ours a gift of admission to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.  They appreciated the “experience” for their kids who already had so many toys.  Once kids get past 6 or 7 they start to get harder and harder to buy gifts for as they grow up and grow out of toys altogether.  Why not get them the gift of exploring their own interests through our gift card platform?  We are speaking to you – parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends of kids in Colorado!  

            

Imagine what a kid could do with $20, $50, or $100 and where they would go and where they would spend it?  Kids are asked to write about this very topic for writing practice at school.  Some admissions are pricey and will eat up that entire $100 gift card (ziplines) while some places (like a museum) you could visit many times for $5 and not break the bank.  All of our offers are in $5 increments to make it easy for kids to use and always have an offer to use up all the money on their gift card.

So what kind of kid are you or do you have in your home?  A creative, active, or inspired kid, that’s who.  Well fortunately that’s for the gift card holder to decide.  You, as the gift giver, just have to give the amount you desire and say “Happy Birthday!” or “Congratulations on getting to middle school!” or whatever the special occasion is that you want to give a kid a gift.

From ziplines to museum entries to axe throwing to coding workshops to tours, trapeze lessons, theater shows, and more.  We’ve got a lot of great options and the list keeps growing.

Check out our map to see if we’re in your home town or at least within the distance of a short drive.  From Fort Collins to Loveland to Longmont, Boulder, Arvada, and all the way down to Colorado Springs and beyond we have an experience out there for you.  I hope you get the pleasure of either giving one of these experiences, or getting to participate in one yourself.  

Exploring the Unknown

           

I remember being a kid and wanting to explore! Every day when I had the opportunity I would walk from my parents house, down a dirt lane, and to a neighborhood surrounded by woods in Virginia.  Those woods and the spaces between the houses of the neighborhood held countless moments of inspiration for exploration and excitement for my friends and me.

Our world is very different today.  More often than not today’s kids are driven to places to have fun, be inspired, or create something – usually with the help of a parent alongside them.  It’s not any better or worse, it’s just different.

If you are a business owner, and you’re looking to bring in more kids and their families, we offer the perfect solution.  Advertise your offer with us, for free, and we will try to bring in some new clients who would like to come to your place.  Given that kids with come with a parent or guardian, and most likely a sibling or a friend.  Those gift card holders, the birthday boys and girls, they are using our platform which business owners use as a way to market their services.  However, those joining the card holder are new clients and added value that comes along with choosing to partner with us.

For the clients – the kids, the parents, well they are probably aren’t aware that there is a great option for your kid to spend an afternoon right around the corner and you just didn’t have the time to research it.  That’s where we come in.  Did your kid get a $50 gift card from their grandparents for Christmas and wants to use it?  Let them scroll through the $20+ experiences on our website and explore their interests for something fun to do.

We are in the business of making memories with our easy gift solutions.  We hope you go explore new experiences with us.   

It’s Time to Go Explore!

This is my first attempt at a blog post.   In 2024, no less!  What a trip! 

“You pay the fare and take the ride” – haven’t we all heard this quote somewhere?

The last 10+ years as an elementary school teacher in Colorado have been a wild and amazing ride so far, but starting this journey on the side has been busy to say the least.  But we are finally here.  We have partnered with so many great Colorado businesses who have believed in our mission and vision so far and we got things up and running.  Now we just need your help.  

Visit the site (often) – and check back for where we are currently partnered.

Help spread the word to your friends that there’s a new gift card platform (for kids!) in town (and their town).

Like our posts and follow us on social media whenever you can (and all that good stuff).

I have a feeling this is going to be a wild ride! 

Thank you for all of your support.
