Meet The Maker
Sarah Omura's journey into the world of montessori inspired travel toys began with a familiar frustration: the constant battle of keeping her son's toys contained while on the move. Tired of finding stray cars buried in the depths of her diaper bag, Sarah knew there had to be a better solution. Drawing upon her background in textile design, she set out to create toys that were not only practical but also aesthetically pleasing and engaging for young minds.
