Our Story

A family studio in the forest

Bose Family Studios began the way most good toys do: with a kid, an idea, and a workbench. We live and work in Forest Park, and the woods outside our window shape everything we make, from the trees in our logo to the leaves, dragons, and rockets in our designs.

Every toy starts as a sketch, becomes a vector file, and is cut in small batches on our studio laser. We sand, finish, inspect, and pack each set ourselves, then send it off in a cotton muslin bag, ready to gift.

We design for the kind of play that does not need batteries or instructions. If a toy can live in a sensory bin on Monday, tell a story on Tuesday, and teach counting on Wednesday, it has done its job.

Lauren and Milton, Bose Family Studios
