Young + Wild and Friedman was born when founder, Julie Friedman’s, daughter was diagnosed with a speech disorder coupled with severe anxiety. When doctors recommended incorporating more sensory play opportunities in their daily routine, Julie was inspired to research and create something to calm and encourage her daughter’s language development. After assembling her first sensory bin, she was amazed at her daughter’s behavior and language growth and was encouraged to share her ideas with other families. At Young + Wild & Friedman, you’ll find inspiringly fun and simple play kits to keep your children happy and full of adventure and joy, while protecting their child-like wonder and sweet imaginations.
