Bec Slack is the owner of local business, Cleverstuff Educational Toys, a venture she took over in 2015. It was a leap into the unknown for Bec – who revolutionised the business – shifting their products to digital platforms to make them more accessible and reinforcing the importance of education through experience.
The importance of education, however, is not a new concept for Bec. Having attended Penrith High School, academics have often been a focus for her and have shaped her passion to promote learning at a young age.
“Promoting education through toys is setting up a foundation to love learning...if you make learning fun for a 2-year-old, they’ve got more chance of thinking learning is fun (down the track),” Bec said.
“It’s encouraging quality time for families…it’s developing language, maths skills, hand-eye coordination. The actual skills children are developing while they’re playing…it’s phenomenal.”
