Many parents have the same idea. During the first week of containment, the jeuxpedago.com site experienced a huge influx of connections. "As of Friday, we saw a lot of teachers registering: they were looking for educational solutions for the coming weeks," says Olivier Henry.
The waiters did not take the shock. "Everything was down at 8:10 am," laughs this Aix webmaster, who created the site with his twin brother in 2015. The site was quickly reduced, for a rapid and spectacular recovery: the Henry brothers counted up to 45,000 visits per day, compared to 4,500 in normal times.
200 questions per exercise
"Parents were looking for exercises for their children and we have 1,074 educational games on our site, with up to 200 questions per exercise," explains Olivier Henry. "A kid can repeat the same game ten times, he will not fall on the same questions: it is a real exercise in understanding and not just memory," argues the webmaster.
The addition of two advertising banners on the site allowed him to generate interesting revenues. The games are also rented, for remuneration, to actors of the educational Web who work in partnership with the National Education.
Online vacation notebooks
The Henry brothers are now launching a new site of online vacation notebooks, called kifschool.com. They hope their young users will keep their good habits of containment.
