ABOUT US

Our Kids Trove

My kids were born in China. They attracted stares and crowds most places we went. Random people loved to touch their hair and ask them where they were from.

I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on what I can do to ensure that when the time comes for them to answer the “Where are you from?” question for themselves, they can do so with their heads held high. I want my kids to know their roots and celebrate the richness of their culture.

My kids need to know that the skin that attracted so much attention is a beautiful gift and the hair that was so often a source of fascination is actually a beautiful crown.

It’s important for all kids to have access to a selection of culturally diverse toys.  I know the difference these toys make and I see the delight they bring. Our Kids Trove is a toy shop with a difference. It’s a platform to showcase high-quality toys that have all been made by black-owned businesses. The word trove means “a store of valuable or delightful things”. The toys in our collection are so much more than fun, wholesome ways to pass time. These toys are powerful instruments of education and empowerment. Discover our toys today..
