Play Your Own Way boxes teach kids to think outside the box through play. Each themed box is full of attention grabbing objects, playables (think play dough, pasta or corn!) and tools that kids will love to explore. Created by two moms, who also happen to be teachers, every box also contains a postcard full of play ideas for those who need help getting started, as well as a surprise out of the box item to push kids to think and play well beyond the box!

How We Help Little Minds Grow
Inspire a Sense of Wonder
We encourage children to ask questions and spark their curiosity. We give them the opportunity to become critical thinkers and confident decision makers.
Encourage Unstructured Play
We invite children to play creatively which helps their brains make new neural connections. We encourage kids to think outside the box and become better problem solvers.
Ignite the Desire to Explore
We ask children to look at the world differently and find the courage to try new things. We help them to become innovative thinkers who make a difference.
How It Works
Our boxes are designed to be used any way you want. Pick a box, dive in, and Play Your Own Way!

How do we ensure that kids build the skills they need to navigate an ever changing world? Encourage kids to think about the world differently today so that they can make a difference tomorrow.
