Get your kid thinking with logic, observation, and problem-solving exercises. Perfect for ages 3+! (Warning: Monologues may ensue.)
Good Citizenship: uses conscientious animals to demonstrate responsible community behaviour. Good citizenship skills are an essential part of early education and these skills allow children to understand and enjoy a meaningful role in a social and ecological system larger than themselves.

Questions invite parents and children to discuss what's going on and how the characters are feeling. Help children recognize emotional dynamics in a variety of situations, while sparking important conversations about feelings and socialization. Helps develop empathy and observational skills.
Respect the Earth: engaging animals demonstrate environmental responsibility and inspire conversations about what each of us can do to make the world a better place. Tips on how to reduce, reuse, and recycle, energy-saving habits, and global awareness are included. Situations are presented and ask for an appropriate response.
What Do I Do?: gain a better understanding of subverted social expectations. Helps children to understand how to handle various social situations with poise, grace, and confidence. Opens up dialogue between parents and children about what behaviour may be expected from them in various social environments.

eeBoo's vision is to inspire and support a lifetime of empathy, creativity, and curiosity.
We’re on a mission to create beautiful products to be enjoyed and shared across generations: old School skills and values made fresh and made to last with sustainably sourced materials.
Over twenty-five years ago, I wanted to create a new paradigm for what it meant to be a working mother. I refused to accept the compromise of work versus family. My office was in the basement, where I could be close to my kids and they could experience what we did. My husband Saxton and I put in long hours, and along with the help of friends and family, we grew our business while raising our children. Parenting in the same realm as a home-based business clarified our values. As we were encouraging creative thinking, open-ended play, and meaningful communication in our young children, we were also infusing them into the products we developed.
eeBoo focuses on products that reflect our commitment to family, community, cooperation, inclusion, respect, and the power of honest communication. As our children grew into adults we realized that at every age we should take time to play and create opportunities to spend time together as a family, and so the Piece & Love puzzle brand was born. A natural expansion of the eeBoo lifestyle into adulthood.
Sustainable and Safe
A healthy planet is our priority. We use minimal packaging and plastic components, recycled materials, and vegetable-based inks. We can also now proudly say that we are expanding our commitment to sustainability by using FSC®-certified paper. By choosing FSC®-certified products, you are supporting responsible management of the world's forests to preserve biological diversity and benefit the lives of workers and local communities while sustaining economic viability. eeBoo's FSC License code is FSC-N003607. Product packaging and game components are made from thick greyboard made from 90% recycled post-consumer paper materials.
As of 2022 eeBoo is certified Climate Neutral by ClimatePartner. We achieve this by calculating, reducing, and offsetting CO₂ emissions on a yearly basis.
We also believe in reducing waste, which is why quality is so important to us. Our products are designed with such care that they can be handed down and used again and again.
Starting in 2022, the bags that hold eeBoo puzzle pieces and play components are made with plant-based, biodegradable, compostable, non-toxic materials.
eeBoo products are safety tested to exceed the most stringent safety standards.
Who We Are
We believe that being able to tell a story, express your feelings, and speak up for yourself and others are basic skills that need to be nourished throughout one’s life. Our products teach and reinforce these skills while providing opportunities to connect with others. eeBoo celebrates the gloriousness of diversity and difference, and our thoughtfully designed products respect the intelligence, curiosity, and developmental needs of children of all ages and learning levels. eeBoo is woman-owned and led, certified by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council.
Respect For Diversity
eeBoo wants everyone to be able to recognize themselves in the illustrations we commission. At every developmental level, we have always offered images that normalize inclusion and encourage empathy across our beautiful differences.

Design
As designers, we draw our inspiration from the rich history of textiles, folk art, and art history, scouring flea markets for bits of beautiful ephemera: Russian candy wrappers, patterns on old china, early engravings, and forgotten graphics that we creatively reimagine. An eeBoo product is immediately recognizable because of the depth of our design and the breadth of our influences.
Intergenerational and Screen Free
Our traditional play formats are ideal for family time; they promote conversation and offer Old School fun across generations without the use of technology.
Experience and Expertise
eeBoo products are developed in consultation with educators, psychologists, writers, artists, parents, and children. In this open, dynamic process we try to practice the values we espouse, carefully listening to our collaborators and arriving together at the best outcome: products that will engage, delight, challenge, and inform.
