Fiwi Toys
You aim to actively educate yourself about black history and contributions, support the BLM movement, and genuinely try to be an advocate so you can help the next generation be better than the ones before theirs — but do you put your money where your mouth is?
It’s a movement, not a moment, and one of the best ways to be a proactive citizen is by buying from Black-owned businesses! You’ll be helping to narrow the racial wealth gap, investing in future job growth, and supporting the Black community, all while getting the stuff you and your family really want.
Darlyng & Co.

Darlyng & Co.
The Darnley’s found themselves in a familiar parental predicament; their sweet baby girl started teething early and did not have a good time. Mom and Dad tried everything to help her find relief, but her two-month-old wittle handsies weren’t able to hold a teether yet. Necessity is the mother of invention, so Mom (and Dad) designed this adorable Mitten Teething Mitten for their daughter’s ailing gums, and it worked like a charm!
And so began Darlyng & Co., serving up practical go-tos for families. Treat yourself and the whole fam with their luxuriant shea butter, and soothing body oil, perfect for sensitive skin.

Fiwi Toys

Fiwi Toys
Pre-bot Learns Not to Hurt is the first book in a planned series by Fiwi Toys. Timmy is given his very first robot, Pre-bot, who learns through imitation. Timmy struggles to set a good example for his robotic buddy, but when Pre-bot starts acting not-so-nice, Timmy realizes he might need to make some changes! A thoughtful, and richly illustrated adventure, this is a wonderful story for promoting accountability because our actions have consequences, and what we say and do matters.
Jumping right off the page and into real life is a fully poseable, cleverly constructed Pre-bot of your very own. No heavy metal for this robot; its chunky shapes are made from wood with a pleasing, smooth texture, and the colors are as vivid as they are on paper. Intriguing to pick up and hard to put down, your new robot friend is a cheery reminder that it’s not nice to push people’s buttons!
