Education and Training > Educational Supplies
Store for Knowledge is a family owned and operated business started in 2001. We have come a long ways from a small hobby site for paleontology and geology, to now offering thousands of products ranging from almost every educational subject. Our business was made on the foundation of providing unique products that you do not find at big chains such as Wal-Mart or Target. We strive to provide quality products that entertain and educate at the same time.
Our story is unique and we are happy to share it with our customers. It all started with my interest in paleontology and geology. Growing up, my father worked as the Park Superintendent at Dinosaur Valley State Park in Glen Rose, TX, and I had the privilege of getting to live in the park my entire childhood and teenage years. The park is known for it's well preserved dinosaur tracks along the Paluxy river bed, and I developed a strong appreciation for natural history and preservation. That life-long love of paleontology translated to countless learning opportunities for me, and by the time I arrived at college, I knew I wanted to have a career that merged my e-commerce interests and paleontology/geology. That opportunity came when eDinos.com, Store for Knowledge.com's predecessor, was created as a college class project in a small upstairs apartment in the town of Stephenville, TX. We started with selling dinosaur models, replicas, books, games, etc. While attending Tarleton State University pursuing my economics and finance degree and my masters degree in management, the “class project” grew. It took me almost nine months, a couple of school loan checks, and a lot of hard work before I received just one order. But when I received that first single order, it meant the world to me and struck a entrepreneurial spirit in me that would not go away.
