Our mission is to help kids use computer technology productively. Kids develop 3D design and spatial-relations skills using F1 for Kids and Google SketchUp (TM) , which architects, designers, math teachers, and art instructors say is the easiest and most powerful modeling application available!

F1 for Kids provides educational materials and interactive activities, designed to engage kids with fun, hands-on projects using the FREE SketchUp software. Teachers and students who have tested our materials report that in less than 15 minutes, new users are creating their first designs.

Your kids are spending time on the computer anyway. Why not give them something to do that's both fun and productive? With the same focus they dedicate to video games, kids develop design and modeling skills using F1 for Kids and SketchUp.
