Come Dream with Me, Please!


I have a dream!  It has been with me for a number of years.  It began with a longing to find toys that my child could actually play with and that I could afford.  Yes, there were companies that carried switch toys that Maddie could operate.  It was awesome to watch her young face light up when she realized she had control over the toy.  The reality was that I could afford very few of those and she needed more and different toys.  What child can play with the same toy day after day? 

I turned to scouring toys and fun things everywhere.  I focused on what movements and abilities Maddie had.  I analyzed products for their usability, cost, and benefit to her.  I found things but not nearly as often as I wanted.  I was frustrated.  Wouldn’t it be awesome if there were a store just dedicated to kids like Maddie?  It did not exist. 

My dream was born out of my desire and my frustration.  Why couldn’t I open the store I was dreaming of?  It keeps nagging at me!  The question slowly became a goal.  Now I am in the process of dreaming and writing a business plan.  I have found people who are drawn to the idea enough to help me get the plan in working order. 

I need your help!  Dream with me.  What would you like to find in a store dedicated to the needs of your child and your family?  What products do you look for?   What things have you found particularly helpful?  Feel free to share your thoughts, frustrations, and visions of a store dedicated just to your child and your family.

The dream is there and it is time to give it wings.  Thank you for helping me.
