The Whole Kid and Kaboodle began with a desire to publish  good, helpful and wholesome information as well as kid friendly events and to make it  readily available to families, ie parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. With this accomplished, the next step was to add advertisers who would enhance useful and helpful information to a greater degree. The secondary goal then was to increase readership in order to ensure that advertisers have a positive experience.

Jerri Bankston, the founder of the magazine has had an extensive career with promoting businesses, first with her own for 20 plus years and then to the Lake Houston Chamber where she served on staff as Director of Membership. Duties for this position were just an extension of what she had done for years except the passion was applied to other businesses instead of  the family business. Upon retiring from the chamber and deciding to begin  her first publishing venture, she discovered that the passion she has always had for the business owner, whether it be an established venture or a start-up, is still strong and alive.
