Our Story

Kia ora e hoa ma, nau mai ki Little Soldier

We are a husband-and-wife team. Tisa dreams up the ideas, and Richard brings them to life.

After our son was born, we saw a saturation of plastic, single-function toys in the market, and so, we’re on a mission to bring you and your little one eco-friendly open-ended resources that will last for years to come.  

We are inspired by RIE and Montessori philosophies and believe that all children are strong, capable and independent when given the opportunity. Our products are designed to provide opportunities and encouragement for your babies to reach their full potential. All items are handcrafted by us in our home.
