Megan Foster's Bio
Megan Foster is the founder and CEO of T is for Taught, an educational company that creates play-based learning kits for children ages three to six. The subscription boxes support early childhood development through hands-on, thematic activities covering math, science, and fine motor skills.
Before launching T is for Taught, Megan spent close to a decade as a kindergarten teacher in Nashville, Tennessee. She earned her master's degree in elementary education and built classroom expertise in the same Tennessee community where she would later run her business. That experience gave her direct insight into the learning gaps she wanted to address.
She founded T is for Taught in 2020, the day before her second son was born, turning pandemic disruption into an opportunity to build something lasting. Starting small, she focused on high-quality, curriculum-backed kits that parents could use at home. The business grew organically through word of mouth and direct-to-consumer sales, reaching six-figure revenue and 250 percent year-over-year growth by 2024.
Under Megan's leadership, T is for Taught has remained self-funded with no outside investors. The company is cash-flow positive, with kits priced between $38.95 and $48. Megan continues to oversee product development and marketing, recently exploring grandparent-focused campaigns after industry mentors highlighted that demographic as an underserved buyer with higher disposable income.
