Why use our site?
familyrapp.com
was born out of many frustrating hours on the internet trying to source
relevant family based information. The endless 'Click Here' scenario,
which took you nowhere, made us believe that we could do better. From
our initial proposal of a family days out website we developed and progressed
our ideas to that of our final concept - an online magazine to be enjoyed
by parents and carers of children between the ages of 3 and 13. We have since, due to popular demand, expanded our database of articles and links to cover both younger and older children.
The journey from concept to going live has not been without its difficulties.
The learning curve has been steep but we have gained invaluable knowledge
and experience and we have discovered a wealth of talent and experience
within our community - men and women who no longer worked, whether through
starting families, through redundancy or retirement or through other
personal circumstances, who have enjoyed taking part in the creation
of a new site.
You can now judge for yourselves whether the site we have built carries
the prerequisites of our original concept - a site which is easy to
navigate, a site which has useful and informative content on each page
and a site which has a calm and peaceful environment so the reader actually
enjoys logging on. Not only this, but we wish to provide a worthwhile
environment for parents and carers of children to read and learn, share
experiences and ultimately build a community of readers who would like
to keep the idea of the family unit alive, in a world which makes this
very difficult to achieve.
Our name familyrapp developed from our idea of building a rapport within
the family community. Alongside enjoying the commentary and wealth of
information within our magazine, please remember we wish our readers
to communicate with us to build up a special community.
Helping
you to enjoy family life!
