Artist Statement
"I remember those days...they grow up too fast." When you've got young children, you hear these words so often from parents, grandparents, even strangers. Why? Because IT'S TRUE. So make the most of those fleeting, formative first years. Give them love, affection, and undivided attention. Create spaces that encourage imagination and exploration. Offer timeless, well-made toys that inspire learning through play. And when "these days" have passed, you and your child will savor the memories and the special keepsakes attached to them. We're here to ensure those keepsakes are nothing but the best: personal, safe, and natural heirloom toys and decor pieces they'll treasure for years to come.
