Open House Learning Center 3.41

Open House Learning Centers will provide a multi-purpose educational facility in Celebration Florida serving two main purpose.

1-Provide support for young families, (children and parents) through a variety of indoor classes, activities and events.
2- Provide indoor recreational space, rentable on a short term basis, for a range of adult- based activities and classes.

Daytime activities will primarily focus on families with children up to 4 years of age. Activities will be age appropriate and fun, ranging from music classes, art classes, drop-in play, baby support groups, toy library and parent educational classes. Early studies have shown that group visits were an efficient and effective way of delivering well-baby and child care information and support. Our business model is based on a membership basis that offers many of the activities for a fixed fee, although some classes will be available on a ‘pay as you play’ basis.

In the afternoon and evenings, activities will be more adult- based, although older children and teens will also be catered for. Classes will be a ‘pay as you go’ ranging from $15-$45, and will include art & wine, photography skills and editing, crafts, language skills, fitness classes and more.

The business is based on splitting the large open area down the middle with a high quality movable partition wall that can be moved as necessary to accommodate groups of different sizes. Some classes will be offered on a Saturday, as well as a birthday room for hire at the weekends.

We are not day care. Our daytime classes are for families, and our policy is that no baby or child is left unattended. We will have a wide range of services that include a drop in member area for parents, babies and children under the age of 4 to meet, and socialize. Education classes will cover a variety of subjects, including first aid, a guide to immunizations, sleep routines, and many more.

In the early afternoon and evenings our center will provide classes to adults and older children. We already have a young artist in town who is going to teach art to young adults ages 10 and up. He specializes in comic books and superhero characters. We also have a more traditional paint/art teacher. We are going to offer ‘Painting with wine’ (BYOB) in the evenings, for a fee clients will get all the paining supplies and be taught how to paint onto an 11x14 canvas that you can take home. This is great for team building, social nights with friends and small parties.

As well as art, we are looking at photography groups showing how to photo-shop and other editing techniques. We also have craft classes lined up in Jewelry making, Scrapbooking and Decoupage. Fitness classes are something we are going to add.
