Folks~
There is an article in USA Today (aka:  surf the net) in the March 2nd issue 
titled Targeting the Kindermarket (search using the word "Kindermarket").  It 
states that 
    Children ages 4-12 will spend or influence more than $550 billion of 
retail spending.... store sales during special kid promotions can jump as 
much as 30%"
ETC.>

This is an AWESOME tool to use if you want to approach businesses (the main 
focus of my company is the business cliental).  It can be used to say "hire 
me in your store/business, etc., and watch your sales jump.

Have a great day
