About Us
INNER WORKS ENTERPRISES, INC. is a manufacturer of educational tools for children to learn about time and time management in a fun and delightful way. Since 1995, Inner Works has offered four innovative products that stimulate children to find and explore their creativity, identity, and originality while providing a forum for parents to interact with their children. Inner Works was given its name by owners and founders Fanny Chin and Richard Fichtl who believe that the "best works come from within". For an adult, it may mean living and working authentically -- truer to one's nature. For a child, it may mean reaching within to express creativity and originality rather than looking for external identification in this multi-media world. Since 1995, Inner Works has made a commitment to offer high quality, high value products that meet the needs of consumers looking for an alternative in educational toys and games. Inner Works' "back-to-basics" products appeal to the heart of parents and children for the simplicity and honesty they bring back to every day lifestyles. Inner Works aspires to develop back-to-basics products that inspire your mind and speak to your heart. We invite you to come and know Inner Works and be encouraged. Allow your child-like heart and creative mind to become inspired and renewed by what you see. Welcome! |

| About Creative Calendar Creative Calendar Portolio Edition, Inner Works' flagship product, has proven to meet Fanny and Rick's vision. Creative Calendar offers children a fun and creative way to learn calendar time by encouraging children to express on paper the activities in their lives. Using over 500 hoiday and activity stickers and eight washable markers, children keep track of their busy schedules by stickering, coloring, and drawing on the blank calendar. Whatever a child is into doing, whether it is soccer, piano, ballet, or going to the zoo, he or she can unload creative ideas on the calendar. When a child is finished creating a month, he or she is left with a canvas of art,, a mixture of colorful and creative pictures that represent his or her desires, dreams, and goals. In essence, Creative Calendar is A CELEBRATION OF LIFE! This filled-up calendar can later be used as a diary or journal, saved and cherished by parents and grandparents for years to come. |

| About Fanny Fanny M. Chin was born December 30, 1964 in Bronx, NY and lived above her family's chinese hand laundry business with parents, grandparents, aunt, uncle, six cousins, and younger sister Michelle until the age of eight. In 1973, Fanny's parents' Frank and Mary moved the immediate family and grandparents to New Rochelle, NY where Fanny entered the fourth grade. As a young child, Fanny was very creative and imaginative. She already enjoyed doing art and music, sometimes being caught singing "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head" in a white slip and red sweater. She was precocious yet thoughtful; stubborn sometimes, yet always sincere. In High School, she followed her Dad's advice and started an Asian American Society, bringing cultural knowledge to her classmates through Chinese New Year celebrations and renditions of the King & I. At Cornell University, Fanny enjoyed the nature that was Ithaca, breathing in fresh air, walking up steep slopes, staying ever so joyful through the midst of brutal winters and impossible midterms. What warmed her heart was joining Sigma Chi Delta Service Fraternity as a little sister, where she advocated "community and brotherly spirit" and college activities for which she would jot in a monthly calendar in reds, greens, blues and orange ink what needed to be done, what Fanny though was fun. It was at New York University's Stern School of Business in 1991 where the first seeds of Inner Works began. In a New Products Development class, Fanny's idea for Creative Calendar was born. Fanny remembered how she kept a colorful calendar in college so many years ago. She thought it would be a great product for kids to learn and to have fun with. This master's project became the "idea that grew and grew" with Fanny's hard work, persistance, and perserverance. This initial idea is the fire that has spurred what Inner Works is today.
