Our Story

Welcome to Joyful Noggin!

We are a passionate, nurturing brand focused on creating sensory kits that not only delight children but also support their developmental, social, and emotional growth.

Joyful Noggin was born out of a deep love for helping parents and educators connect with children in meaningful ways. With over a decade of experience in education, including four years of teaching administrators and educators about the neuroscience of the stress response system, our founder recognized the power of play in fostering strong, healthy relationships.

The journey to bringing Joyful Noggin to life wasn't without its challenges. Three years ago, our founder planned to start this business, but life had other plans, including welcoming another baby and navigating the challenges of Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). Despite these hurdles, the passion for supporting children and their caregivers through play remained steadfast.

Our Mission:

At Joyful Noggin, our mission is to empower parents, educators, and therapists to nurture the social, emotional, and developmental well-being of children through playful and inclusive sensory experiences. We are dedicated to fostering connection, understanding, and joy in every interaction, helping children explore their world with curiosity and confidence.

What we do

At Joyful Noggin, we create sensory kits and connection cards that are more than just toys—they are tools for building connection and understanding. Our products are carefully crafted to be inclusive, celebrating diversity in all its forms, and are designed to engage children in a way that is both fun and educational. Whether you are a parent, educator, therapist, or homeschooler, our kits are designed to meet your needs and help you connect with the children in your care.

Our Commitment

We are committed to using research-based methods to create products that are not only engaging but also beneficial for children's brain development. Our kits include sensory materials, educational tools, and instructions for activities that encourage creativity, learning, and emotional growth. We believe that every child deserves to explore their world in a way that is joyful, nurturing, and supportive.
