This is Max, he founded Unplug & Play a couple of years ago after a business planning project for school. He was keen for a job, but at 13, he was too young, so he created his own. He's passionate about creating things and being outside, and he wanted to make something that encouraged other kids to do that too. If you'd like to support a young entrepreneur and encourage creativity and problem solving through Play in your kids, check out Unplug and Play's Inventors Kits, Story Blocks, I-spy bottles and Natural Blocks.

Happy Children's Week! We love to play and agree, all children have the right to play!
"I am learning through play for I will make a difference one day" 😁
We strongly advocate for the child's right to play. Children learn so much through play, especially STEM and the skills they will need to become active and engaged citizens of our community! 🕵️♀️
