Hi, I’m Anastasiya! As a mom to two energetic toddlers—a 3.5-year-old boy and a 1.5-year-old girl—I know the joys and challenges of nurturing little ones. Like many working moms, I found myself struggling to balance my career while meeting my children’s unique developmental needs. When my son was diagnosed with a mild level of autism, I was determined to find ways to support his speech and cognitive growth. Traditional toys didn’t interest him, so I began exploring creative, play-based solutions to help him thrive. My daughter, on the other hand, also showed little interest in ordinary toys, which inspired me to dive deeper into tools and activities that foster engagement and development for both of them. Through trial, error, and a lot of love, I’ve discovered effective toys, tools, and resources that truly make a difference. This journey has led me to create this space—a collection of my experiments, experiences, and successes—to share with other parents who may be facing similar challenges. I hope these insights can bring a little more joy, connection, and progress to your family’s playtime. Feel free to contact me if you have any comments, questions or suggestions.
