The Child’s Leisure sector has a wealth of opportunities for those keen to invest in a high-energy enterprise. Parents are increasingly keen to take advantage of the options available in the leisure industry - from sports to creative arts, as well as life skills such as cooking and technology clubs. With the amount of time children are engaged in screen-based activities increasing, parents are turning to the leisure sector to help rebalance their children’s activity time.

The 2020 global health pandemic saw many children isolated from friends and unable to attend schools. With restrictions lifting, parents want to capitalize on opportunities for their children to catch up for lost time. The child’s leisure sector also provides exciting activities for children whilst parents work, for example during school holidays. There is high demand for these services, in an industry that looks set to grow.

School of Rock is a successfully franchised business where franchisees offer one-on-one instruction alongside group rehearsals and live performances, teaching children how to perform music that they love. For sport enthusiast franchisees, Premium Floorball offers children the opportunity to take part in an exciting indoor sport that resembles hockey. Wherever your interests lie, there are franchise options available in this rewarding and profitable industry.

Child’s Leisure Industry Analysis

The child’s leisure sector has something for everyone but a passion for working with children and having fun will be essential! Franchisees will need to be prepared to work evenings, weekends and holidays to benefit from the time children are not informal education settings.

Whether your interests lie in sports, creative arts or education, there are franchise opportunities available. Relevant security checks will need to be in place before working with children, but experience teaching children is not necessarily expected as most companies offer full training. Good communication and organizational skills, alongside a passion for working with children, will enable franchisees to make the most of this rewarding industry.
