OUR YOUTH PROGRAMS AGES 5-17

PawGone Good is dedicated to fostering entrepreneurship while reinforcing essential academic skills like reading and mathematics. Our programs offer an engaging platform where children not only learn but also have fun. Aligned with the goals of the school systems, our programs integrate seamlessly into the curriculum. Through hands-on activities such as formulating recipes, measuring ingredients, and delivering presentations, children embark on a journey of discovery and learning. By incorporating elements of reading, mathematics, and entrepreneurship, we empower children to take ownership of their learning process.
