• Great oaks from tiny acorns grow

  Generation Wonder

  23 October 2007

  Inspire, admire, enchant, wonder. These words greet customers on my homepage, chosen because they define what I seek to do. Borne from an inner urgency to represent meaningful, global stories to my children, knowing that the foundation for the person they can be is set in childhood, the on-line shop represents important global stories to the children through its range of toys, books, games, clothing and more. Every single product is chosen because it connects the children to a meaningful story - be it conservation or fair trade, sustainability, poverty reduction or justice. Great oaks from tiny acorns grow - I know that for sure. Given the opportunity to raise children and engage in their lives, I'll do my best to help my kids embrace their global citizenship. Generation Wonder is my vehicle to help other parents do the same. I can't save the world but I can do this.
