Wunderkits comes from Wunderkind, German for "wonder child." Because every kid is full of wonder, and that's worth celebrating.
The Wunder Way
The Motivation Behind Wunderkits

Our kiddos are born sensory-seekers, driven to touch, manipulate, and discover the world through their five senses. It’s why their eyes light up when they see a rainbow, they get giddy about goopy textures, and they will do just about anything for the chance to drop a bath bomb in some water and hear it fizz.

At Wunderkits, we believe these moments are actually building blocks for essential life skills—fine motor development, cognitive growth, creative expression, and the confidence that comes from making something with their own two hands. Not to mention the emotional connection they feel when you’re doing something together.

Some of us love diving into a DIY project with kids, and others…not so much. And that’s okay! That’s exactly why Wunderkits are thoughtfully designed to give kids everything they love about creative activities while keeping things manageable for adults.

  •  Each kit can be created in ~30-minute bursts. (Perfect for short attention spans and busy schedules.)
  • Easy-to-follow instructions and helpful how-to videos make every project feel achievable.
  • Just the right amount of ingredients help you manage potential chaos and avoid storing excess materials.

With Wunderkits, you can experience all the benefits of mess-managed play, without the mayhem.

Our Purpose
Why Wunderkits Exists

We believe every child is a born natural explorer, discovering the world through their five sense and creative play. Sensory exploration is vital for children’s brain development, which is why we've transformed DIY bath and body kits into engaging, multi-sensory experiences that foster learning and connection. We aim to empower children while bringing together family and friends, even those who typically shy away from DIY projects.

Your Favorite Family Friend
If Wunderkits Was a Person…

Wunderkits is a favorite family friend who always brings the fun! They always know something creative to do and make everyone feel capable of participating. They're well-prepared with just the right materials, give clear instruction, and gentle guidance, but they also know when to step back and let creativity flow. They care deeply about helping kids build essential life skills through play, using natural ingredients that aren’t harmful to people or the planet, and trying to minimize potential chaos, but never at the expense of fun. While they're especially great with kids, they have a knack for making everyone, regardless of age, feel excited about making something special.

Meet the Founder

While I enjoyed getting into the weeds planning for the next craft, I learned that most of my "mom friends" didn't. I didn't know at the time, that this aha! moment would eventually blend with a lifetime of lessons, parenting wisdom and love of the craft, that would eventually create the world of Wunderkits.

Wunderkits started with kitchen-table experiments and my son as my unofficial product tester. He's a teen now and far too cool for most crafts, except our Galaxy Orb Soap Kit. That one he'll drop everything for. Now my niece is my muse, and we're both having so much fun (she makes a great tester!) while planning the next great kit.
