Dear Friends and Builders,
Time certainly does fly by when you’re having fun, and watching families around the world build with you. We are incredibly proud to be celebrating our 15th anniversary this month Together, we have built more than just a new type of playground; we have created memories and experiences that continue to shape countless young minds. Born from the singular hope to spark creativity and joy in children through the magic of play, block play has created the foundation for growth, innovation, and impact.
Fifteen years ago, we introduced the world to our big blue blocks, and the response was beyond our wildest dreams. From bustling cities to remote villages, our blocks supersede the language barrier, supporting children via the universal language of creativity and exploration. Today, our blocks have traveled far and wide, bringing the joy of imaginative play to over 70 countries and countless communities. In the United States alone, we have shipped thousands of sets to schools, parks, museums, and community centers across all 50 states and Puerto Rico.
However, it is not statistics that have given us the most fulfillment over the past fifteen years, but rather the lives that each number represents. Siblings laughing as they take turns bulldozing each other’s structures, a child discovering a passion for architectural design as the castles, bridges, and worlds that they have only ever imagined can now become reality. Our blocks provide hours of fun and are instrumental in developing invaluable social, cognitive, and physical skills. Through free play, children learn cooperation, problem-solving, and creative thinking—skills that will serve them throughout their lives. In a world that often moves too fast, our blocks offer a space for children to slow down, think creatively, and engage in meaningful play.
Imagination Playground was founded upon our belief in the transformative power of play. We have dedicated 15 years to transforming ordinary spaces into extraordinary playgrounds where children can build, explore, and dream. After all that time, we continue to relentlessly pursue progress as pioneers of innovation.
I am thrilled to share that Imagination Playground recently won the prestigious international “A Design Award.” This recognition is a testament to our commitment to excellence in design and our dedication to creating products that inspire and delight children worldwide; this is only the beginning. As we look back on these wonderful 15 years with ever-growing dreams for the future we are excited. We remain committed to our mission of transforming spaces and inspiring young minds. With new products and initiatives on the horizon, we can’t wait to see what the next chapter holds.
None of this would have been possible without you—our friends and builders. Your passion, dedication, and unwavering belief in the power of play have been the cornerstone of our success. You have shared our vision and helped us spread the joy of imaginative play to every corner of the globe. Thank you for being a part of the Imagination Playground family. Here’s to many more years of building dreams, one block at a time.
As always, have fun!
Jim
