BILLIONS of kids go to schools in city classrooms, mountain fields, and desert tents everyday. They go to schools with bright woven bags loaded with books, walking in flip-flops believing that this will change their lives. But every school going child has something or other in their mind that they would like to change about the school if they could. One just needs to ask!

Modern educational aids the need of the hour

Earlier, kids were exposed to different kinds of teaching aids viz. puppet shows to acquaint them about various aspects of life. Over head projectors (OHPs) were used to show them the still photographs of solar system, oceans, mountains etc.

The times have changed, now. Today's child does not want to stick to the same old, traditional tools. He is getting well versed with the modern technology, wants better communication tools, animated views and instant results too. He wants all these modern tools at his work place either at school or at his abode, is aspiring to become a future technocrat, and follow the footsteps of Bill Gates and what not! He wants to be more creative and not a stereotyped one. Latest educational aids like user friendly assembly kits, mind boggling puzzles, animated and educational programmes in the form of CDs and DVDs are the tools of the 21st century child.

Emergence of 'Tech-kidz'

The child takes more interest in his studies if exposed to more real life aspects. All these things prompted young and dynamic 'Parveen Narang' to introduce 'Tech-Kidz' who is the master mind behind an ISO 9001 Co Comp-Point systems (I) Pvt. Ltd.

What is 'Tech-Kidz'?

'Tech-Kidz' is a chain of retail stores spread all over India meant for the kids from 3 to 18 yrs.

Comp-Point Systems (I) Pvt. Ltd. is a 20 year old Co. but it started its retail stores just two years back and has been instrumental in opening around 100 retail 'Tech-Kidz' stores all over India. The concept has been appreciated by all and sundry as the children and parents now can buy more meaningful and educational gifts.
