I gravitate toward stories with strong characters, 👯‍♂️meaningful themes, and a sense of discovery. I appreciate writing that’s immersive, emotionally resonant, and leaves me thinking long after I’ve turned the last page.”❤️✨

Finding toys that reflect the full spectrum of human experiences has gotten so much easier in recent years, and it makes me ridiculously happy to see it! As a former teacher and now a parent, I know how powerful it is for kids to see themselves—and their friends—represented in the toys they play with. From dolls with cochlear implants, limb differences, and vitiligo to playsets that feature characters with disabilities, these toys help normalize diversity in a way that feels natural and joyful. Kids don’t just learn through books; they learn through play, and having options that reflect real people is such a game-changer. What’s exciting is that these aren’t just niche products anymore—they’re showing up in mainstream toy aisles and big-name brands, making them easier to find than ever. Whether it’s a wheelchair for a favorite doll, a figurine with a visible disability, or a playset that includes a character with a mobility aid, these small details can make a huge impact. And honestly, I’m still discovering new ones right alongside you! If you’ve come across a favorite disability-inclusive toy, I’d love to hear about it. The more representation out there, the better!
