Sarah of So handmade

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.

Montessori Toys for Travel

Traveling with a little one can be a stressful experience. Especially trying to keep a squirmy toddler buckled into a seat on a long flight or road trip. Going away on vacation of visiting family should be a joy but sometimes the preparation and stress of getting ready for the trip seems to zap all of the anticipation of a great time away. 

Having the right toys and other engaging activities for them to do on their tray table, in their laps is the best way to prepare for a fun and exciting trip away. Montessori toys are perfect to bring traveling as they are ‘open ended’ they can perform a multitude of foundations for stories, games and imaginative play.
