About Us

At Happy Hippo Sensory Play, we believe in the power of play to build calm, curiosity, and confidence in children.

As a mom and an early childhood educator, I’ve seen firsthand how sensory play can transform a child’s mood, focus, and creativity. I started Happy Hippo to bring that magic into more homes — offering thoughtfully crafted sensory bins that are both educational and joyful.

Each bin is handmade with care, using safe, engaging materials like colored rice, scoops, and themed toys to encourage hands-on learning. Our kits are designed to support fine motor skills, sensory regulation, language development, and imaginative play — all while giving parents a beautiful, screen-free solution that kids truly love.

These aren’t just toys. They’re tools for growth, moments of calm, and invitations to explore.

Whether you’re a fellow parent, a teacher, or a caregiver, thank you for trusting us to be part of your child’s play journey.

With gratitude,

Karissa
