Have you ever noticed that your child will go wherever you go?You're in the bathroom? So are they. Kitchen? They're there, too. ⁠
⁠
Kids want to be around their parents, and it really doesn't matter where you are. They will find a purpose in being there with you.⁠
⁠
The parent-child bond is a fundamental aspect of human development, and it is partly nurtured through shared experiences facilitated by being in the same space!⁠
⁠
It is literally your child's innate desire to be near you, they can't help themselves! So we feel pretty strongly that the play space accommodates grownups, too. ⁠
⁠
If there is nowhere comfortable for you to sit, you hate the wallpaper, it's too bright, has bad acoustics, etc., chances are you're never going to want to go in there and neither will your child. ⁠
⁠
How your child feels about the space starts with how much you enjoy being there! ⁠

Our showroom is open after a much-needed holiday break, and some exciting things are happening right behind this door! ⁠
⁠
We're cooking up new projects, new products, and new offerings all geared toward supporting parents who want to inspire their children to create, explore, and play purposefully at home. ⁠
⁠
We can't wait to tell you more! In the meantime, it would help us tremendously if you could take a moment and reply to the following question:⁠
⁠
What resources could we provide to help you create a play space at home in which your child will have meaningful, lasting experiences? Tell us in the comments below! ⁠

Thanks + Happy New Year🥳⁠

The other day a friend was over with her two boys, who are the exact same age as mine. When I exclaimed, “Clean up, let’s have a snack,” she just laughed.

This may look like a fun and exciting basement (and it is!), but it is also a space filled with essential tools and materials that a child needs to develop critical life skills.

Visuals offer children a fast and immediate way to grasp concepts and ideas. A picture can instantly convey a message, while words must be processed sequentially for comprehension.

Did you know you can support your child’s development of critical skills - like planning, organization, memory, and impulse control - with the design of a space?

Set your child up for success by starting with things organized in a way they can understand. Are the labels clear? Are the materials accessible? Is there a dedicated space inviting play?

Every family and every home is unique, but there is always a consistent goal: for children to play in their own space with their own materials, in a purposeful way. ⁠So, how do you achieve this?⁠
