Started in 2019, MEandMine was founded by a team of educators, pediatricians, psychologists, toy geeks, and parents in the Silicon Valley. Our vision is to develop kids' resilience through a fundamental love of self. We create read-build-play experiences that make kids' self-discovery journey just as fun, weird, messy and marvelous as the magic they'll find inside. We aim to transform what children learn - from performance play to purposeful play and from outside validation to inside discovery.

We built our award-winning toys for kids ages 3-8 based on 2 educational theories by David Kolb and Harvard CDC. This starts with reading and layers on play and practice as a surefire way to help kids dig in what they're made of. Once they love their gifts and quirks, this helps them face the wild road of life ahead with excitement, confidence, creativity, and resilience. We currently have 2 product collections: MEandMine Body and MEandMine Emotion. By the end of month, we are expecting to have a total of 10 products available.
