From One Parent to Another

Challenge & Fun, Inc.

My wife and I really try to be deliberate about the kind of products we buy for our kids. We called Challenge & Fun and were able to talk to a real person (a fellow parent!) about their interests and our needs. They helped us choose a few products (some Haba blocks and Ostheimer figures) and they have been SUCH a hit! Our kids love them and play with them endlessly!

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all of the wonderful toys we have received from Challenge and Fun! Our kids are overjoyed with our newest Ostheimer additions and we hope to purchase more in the coming months

I love the selection at Challenge & Fun; it feels like everything was hand-picked for our family. Everything is beautiful and I don’t have to worry about sifting through a bunch of stuff that doesn’t fit with our family’s values; I want it all!

Ode to the Working Mother

Amidst the chaos of daily life,
The working mom stands tall and strong,
Balancing tasks and endless strife,
Her spirit never yielding to wrong....
