Kidcreate Studio franchisees operate children's art studios that focus on art education for kids from ages 18 months through 12 years. Kidcreate Studio Businesses offer in-studio art classes, camps, art-themed birthday parties, and retail items. Kidcreate Studio Businesses also offer off-premises services (“On-the-Go”) and form partnerships within the community to bring the Kidcreate curriculum and teachers to community education departments, parks and recreation departments, preschools, daycares, and other locations. Kidcreate Businesses operate under our system (“System”) using Kidcreate trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos (“Marks”) from an approved retail location (“Studio”). The System focuses on creating a fun, self-esteem building atmosphere where children learn to express themselves through the visual arts. Classes and parties teach children about art concepts and techniques while exposing them to many different kinds of art media. The art curriculum provided by Kidcreate Studio Businesses varies from activities such as sensory art experiences, pottery classes, drawing and painting lessons, along with messy time play, masters, and art history. We offer four different Franchise packages depending on the number of Kidcreate Studio Businesses you wish to purchase. The “Single Franchise” package consists of the purchase of a single Kidcreate Studio location. The “Standard 3” Franchise package consists of the purchase of up to three Kidcreate Studio locations. The “Standard 5” Franchise package consists of the purchase of up to five Kidcreate Studio locations. The “Standard 10” Franchise package consists of the purchase of up to ten Kidcreate Studio locations. A “Standard Franchise” package means either the Standard 3 Franchise package, the Standard 5 Franchise package, or the Standard 10 Franchise package. You must operate your Kidcreate Studio Franchise per our standard business operating practices and sign our standard Franchise Agreement. If you are opening additional Kidcreate Studio Businesses under a Standard Franchise package, you will need to sign a “Kidcreate Studio Rider” for each location. Our current form of Kidcreate Studio Rider is attached to the Franchise Agreement as Attachment E. You may operate one Kidcreate Studio Business when you sign a Franchise Agreement and you may operate additional Kidcreate Studio Businesses for each Kidcreate Studio Rider you sign in conjunction with the Franchise Agreement. When purchasing multiple franchises, you may be required to sign Franchise Agreements with Riders that may be different from the form of Rider in this Franchise Disclosure Document. Your Kidcreate Studio Business must offer only those services and products that we have authorized. We reserve the right to add, modify, or delete any services or products that you must offer or sell at your Kidcreate Studio Business at any time at our sole discretion.

Summary of Investment Costs
Upfront Franchise Fees
Minimum: $48,000 Maximum: $87,375
Upfront franchise fees are the one-time payments required to secure rights to operate under an established brand, typically ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+ depending on brand value.
These fees grant access to proprietary business systems, training programs, intellectual property rights, and often territorial exclusivity—essentially purchasing the blueprint for a proven business model.
While separate from ongoing royalties, investors should evaluate these fees against expected returns, comparing fee-to-earnings ratios across opportunities and assessing how effectively franchisors reinvest these funds into system improvements.
Total Investment Costs
Minimum: $63,045 Maximum: $119,665
Ongoing Fees
Ongoing franchise fees, typically structured as royalties ranging from 4-8% of gross sales, represent the continuous payments franchisees make to maintain brand affiliation and support services.
These recurring fees fund the franchisor's operational assistance, marketing initiatives, technology updates, and continued brand development—creating a partnership where the franchisor's revenue grows alongside the franchisee's success. In addition to royalties, franchisees often contribute to national advertising funds (usually 1-3% of sales) and may incur technology fees, supply chain markups, or renewal fees depending on the franchise agreement.
Investors should carefully analyze these ongoing costs within their financial projections, as they directly impact profit margins and cash flow throughout the entire franchise relationship.
