In the word of sports footwear there are one or two names that really do stand out from the others as being the brand to be seen wearing. One such example are kids Nike shoes and so many children want to be seen at school and out with their friends wearing the world famous logo on the side of their footwear. One thing that makes them so attractive is that they have such a wide range of styles and they also come in at different prices meaning there should be something for everyone no matter how much cash you have to spend. Of course there are going to be cheaper names out there but by buying this footwear you can be sure of the quality. Another reason is that they are seen as cool to wear and this really exploded in the eighties when Air Jordan arrived on the scene. This led to children wanting just one particular brand name and this has just continued over the decades with their popularity showing no sign of decreasing and indeed the air part lives on in so many of their styles. They produce footwear that is either quite plain and white with just the logo or alternatively there are varieties that are brightly colored and really in your face. Obviously this can make them extra attractive to some children as it manages to make them stand out from their friends if they are the ones wearing this type. They produce a large range of styles for both sexes and they also cover every age from toddlers right up through every size available for children. They are well made and shall last until their feet grow and they need a bigger size so there is no doubt that parents do manage to get value for money when buying this particular brand. The only difficulty is in actually picking which pair they would like to own as stores, both online and offline, can stock a huge number of styles so the hardest part can be in getting them to decide. With some being full leather and others being a mixture of leather and other material you may have to end up thinking about where they are going to be wearing them to make sure they do not burst soon after buying. Testimony to their popularity is that even when short term fads such as footwear with lights flashing when they walk or heelies appear on the market they still maintain their presence at the top of wish lists. A brand is built up over time and there is no doubt that kids Nike shoes does have a sense of longevity about it. So the popularity of Kids Nike Shoes really appeared in the eighties and they now carry one of the most recognizable logos anywhere in the world.

With the rise in private school fees by nearly 200% in the last five-six years, children in one-parent working families now cost 30% more than children in both-parent working families, a study by Associated Chamber of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham) suggests. Majority of parents spend, on an average, Rs 20 Lakh raising a child by the time the teen passes out of the high school. Parents invest an average 60% of their income in their children's education. Seventy-eight per cent parents in one-member-earning families often find it impossible to pay even for one child education. So, the demand of dual income is very common to fulfill the education cost. The Assocham survey on the Rise in Education Fees highlighted that school expenses, including tuition fees, have doubled to Rs 1.20 lakh per annum during 2005-11 on a single child. The school-related expenses include uniforms, books, stationery, transport, sports activities, school trips, contributions to schools funds, school aids, tuitions, and extra-curricular activities. According to the survey, 85% of parents spend more than half of their take-home pay on their children's education, extra coaching and extra-curricular activities, placing significant burden on their family budget. An estimated six crore children in India are now educated in private schools, with fees usually rising well above inflation, said Ms Bhagyesh Soneji, Chairperson, Assocham Gujarat Council. The average fees of private day schools are Rs. 80,000 per annum, which is much higher in metropolitan cities. Private preparatory schools for kids aged 3 to 5 years cost Rs 50,000-70,000 a year. Transport costs an average of 15,000-25,000 per child per year. Parents spend 12,000 per child on lunches. Packed lunches cost more than school lunches. Uniforms and shoes cost Rs 10,000 -15,000 per child while footwear works out as being more expensive than textbooks. In the absence of competition, schools often force the parents to buy uniform, text book, stationery, shoes etc. from school shops only which is five times higher than the normal price. Private tuitions have also witnessed an increase of about 45-60% in the last six. Parents spend Rs. 2,000-5,000 per month on private tuition for each primary-level child. Secondary-level tuition set parents back by about Rs.6,000-12,000 monthly. Even poor families spend 40% of disposable income on private schools and universities, rather than expose their children to government schools. These fees pose a very real barrier for the children of poor families.
