Washington – NumbersAlive!®, a unique brand of educational children’s products created by Dr. Rebecca Klemm, aka The Numbers Lady, has signed Kid Glove to develop the property for a wide spectrum of entertainment platforms around the world. The brand will be presented to entertainment development and production executives at the Kidscreen Summit in Miami 23-26 February.
After more than thirty years of working with and teaching about numbers, Dr. Rebecca Klemm founded NumbersAlive!® in 2011 as an innovative framework for demystifying numbers and math. Through toys, puppets, books and animated characters that teach children about math, NumbersAlive!® was launched with a mission to improve numerical literacy.
“No one is too young to start learning about the universality of numbers and math – and that their relevance should be engaging, interesting, and down-right fun,” said Dr. Klemm. “NumbersAlive!® puts numbers into a real world context and lets us look at them through the lenses of art, history, science and culture. We propel math out of academic abstraction and into a vital part of everyday life.
“Rebecca is an incredibly creative educator who has found a new way to make math more fun. I look forward to working with her to bring this exciting brand to the global entertainment community and maximise its potential in all forms of entertainment media, licensing and merchandising,” said Brenda Wooding, Kid Glove Founder/President.
“We are thrilled to be working with Kid Glove as we embark on this newest phase in the evolution of what promises to be an evergreen brand in the educational entertainment marketplace,” added Dr. Klemm.
