Aims:

The aim of ICS is child development and building of capacity of young Nigerians to be future leaders, through engaging them in community development activities.

Through educational toys, children develop skills called, executive function, the main characteristic of this elevated level brain activity is the ability to self-regulate. When this area of the brain is properly established, a child can regulate his or her emotions, behaviour, and is better able to counterattack impulses, and have a greater amount of self-control.
