Meet Stephanie!
She had a successful career as an R&D scientist, but everything changed when she became a mother. MyQuirkBee's journey began in Singapore.
She struggled to keep her baby girl calm anytime there was waiting time, and during car rides. The situation worsened on their first 12-hour flight, when her daughter was only 11 months old. She felt unable to do much to soothe her baby, even got into an argument with another angry passenger.
Few months later, when her husband and she planned another trip, she knew they would need more than things like colouring books. She noticed her daughter's interest in common household items, and considered busy-boards, but the ones available on the market were too bulky to carry around. That's when she came up with the idea of travel-friendly busy-boards.
Travel-friendly busy boards
The first playkit she made was for a flight from Singapore to Phuket. When her 15 months old daughter started crying loudly, it was immediately effective on the plane. As a result of her daughter's intense concentration, Stephanie and her husband received some much-needed rest, relieved from the angry stare of the other passengers.
Stephanie kept enhancing the design until it evolved into a series of boards in a custom-made, sustainable bag, which her daughter associated with fun and education whenever they were out of the house. With the arrival of her second child, she looked forward to sharing these experiences with him as well.
She wants to share this solution with other parents who struggle similarly with young children.
Sustainability at the Heart of MyQuirkBee Playkit
At MyQuirkBee, we prioritize sustainability and believe in providing ethical products for children. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in the materials we use and the partnerships we establish.
We are proud to have collaborated with Re-Store and St. Andrew’s Autism School in Singapore during the early stages of MyQuirkBee’s development. The sling bags were produced locally from upcycled textiles by a workforce of marginalised communities. Parts of the boards were produced by students from the school, contributing to the uniqueness of each Playkit whilst gaining a vocational and educational experience.
Each board was produced in Singapore, supporting local businesses and reducing the carbon footprint associated with transportation. Now, following our relocation to Switzerland, all production will take place locally, continuing our commitment to sustainability and community support.
Our selection of items is carefully curated, focusing on safety, quality and durability. As demand for our Playkits grows, we are exploring using upcycled and ethically-sourced wood and other materials to further our commitment to sustainability.
Choose MyQuirkBee Playkit for your child's empowering, engaging, and sustainable learning experience.
