TARGET MARKET
Ages 13^

Kids spend a lot of time on phones, and tv. The T.V. is the one electronic in any household that would be on after a full day at work or school. Either cartoons on PBS kids for the kids or news for the grownups. The phones the parents do carry will most likely be a smartphone so the kids will be attached to that phone as well.

Kids are also given assignments to read every night.

WHY KIDS?

This will work because kids will begin reading these comic books. Kids are encouraged to read every night by teachers. Most places you can’t watch a video so why not take an interesting book to read with images. ;-)

Youtube Kids (App)

Netflix, PBS KIDS videos (App)

PBS Kids (TV Network)

WHY IT WORKS?

The reason it will work on these mediums is because, young kids are limited on electronics they are equipped with, unless they have older siblings and/ or their parents have money. Middle and low income class families typically can’t afford to have, cable, computers or phones for everyone in the family. One thing that will be in the household however is the TV or books.
