This Forest Explorer wagon is inspired by my forest school training, and comes with a variety of ways to enjoy the outdoors. It includes tools for building, risky play, creativity, games, observation, gathering, exploration, and discovery. Many of our toys can help you drink your coffee hot, this one is a bit different. It’s immersive and engaging, and requires adults and children to participate alongside each other. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but for those who are intrigued by forest learning and looking to enjoy nature with their families, there are endless possibilities, there’s something for everyone! Scroll through to see the elements, that all fit in the wagon. $50 Weekly.

Dear Valued Clients,

I wanted to take a moment to share that I have officially sold my half of The Mother Tree.

This business has been such a meaningful part of my life, and I am incredibly grateful for the support, kindness, and trust so many of you have shown throughout this journey. One of the best parts of building The Mother Tree has been getting to meet and connect with so many wonderful families along the way.

While this chapter is coming to an end for me, Kayla will continue running the business moving forward. There will be some changes as the business evolves, but I know the care and passion behind The Mother Tree will continue.

Thank you again for being part of this journey and for supporting our small business over the years. I truly appreciate each and every one of you.

Wishing you and your families all the best,

Sarah

It’s Kayla here! As Sarah has shared, The Mother Tree is going through some changes. When we began this business, it came at a very difficult time in my life. The Mother Tree became more than just a business, it became partnership, community, support, creativity, and a reminder that I still had something valuable to contribute.

The years spent building this alongside my dear friend, and getting to meet so many of you along the way, have been incredibly meaningful to me. I’m so proud of what we created together.

Moving forward, there will be some changes. As I now live in an apartment, the toy inventory will be downsized and more focused, but with that comes an opportunity for more intention and depth in what I offer.

I’m so grateful for Sarah’s partnership in building this, and while it will be strange to do this alone, I’m excited for this next chapter and for all the ideas I have to continue bringing meaningful, imaginative play into your families’ lives.

Stay tuned 💛
