​
Welcome, Y'all!
My name is Jenna, and I'm here to share with you the enchanting world of play, sprinkled with love, laughter, and the transformative power of toys.
With 14 years of my heart and soul woven into the tapestry of the toy industry, I've witnessed the incredible impact that play can have on a child's development. Yet, my journey goes beyond the conference rooms, museums and toy stores. It intertwines with the most precious chapters of my life—motherhood.
In the Stirling household, we're a proud team of three: myself, and my two radiant daughters, fondly known as Nugget and Pie. These spirited young ladies dance through life with the extraordinary companionship of ADHD and autism, and they are my guiding stars. Together, we've ventured into the playgrounds of neurodiversity, learning, laughing, and discovering the true magic that lies within play. We have uncovered the beauty of affirming exactly who you are, unlocking your neurodivergent superpowers and owning the one and only YOU!
And now, we're embarking on a new chapter—a heartfelt blog dedicated to unraveling the mysteries of play and neurodiversity, sharing tales of our adventures, and humbly extending an invitation to you, to join our play-filled journey.
This blog isn't just for parents; it's for educators, caregivers, and anyone who believes in the profound impact of play on the human spirit. Here, I'll be your guide, weaving together insights from my professional journey and the invaluable lessons learned from the neurodivergent wonders of my own home. We will be sharing reviews and developmental benefits of some of our favorite products, interviewing the brains behind the brands, and serving up activity suggestions to get you and your loved ones playing!
Together, we'll explore the alchemy of play—how it molds minds, nurtures hearts, and creates bonds that last a lifetime. I invite you to dive into the heartwarming tales of Nugget and Pie, where play isn't just a pastime; it's a catalyst for growth, resilience, and joy.
As we embark on this adventure, I extend my hand to you, with the hope that you'll find inspiration, camaraderie, and a treasure trove of ideas that make the journey of play a richer and more meaningful experience.
