Celebrating One Year of Learning Through PLAYtrays

As we mark the first anniversary of Learning Through PLAYtrays® , we are overwhelmed with gratitude and a bit of emotion (yes, tears have been shed!) as we reflect on this incredible and supportive journey. It’s been a year since we launched, and what a year it has been! Our first sale was on February 14, 2024 when we went live on Amazon!
How It All Began
Our journey began with a simple yet ambitious question from me (Kamilla) to my husband, Daniel: "Can we make a premium tuff tray?" His response? "I can try!" That conversation sparked the creation of Learning Through PLAYtrays®. A year+ later, here we are, celebrating a dream turned into reality. And, to be honest, it was Daniel’s idea to add the sensory tactile surface that has set our trays apart :)

A Heartfelt Thank You
A massive thank you to our wonderful brand reps and everyone who has tagged us this past year. Each tag and mention has not just been noticed—they’ve been felt deeply. Your support has really helped our small business to achieve something incredible: reaching 8,000+ followers! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us grow and for joining our new community!
Behind the Scenes with Kamilla
For those new to our community, I’m Kamilla, co-founder of Learning Through PLAYtrays® and a proud graduate in Early Childhood Education from Ontario, Canada. I handle all our social media content, bringing you nature-inspired, sensory play activities that are not only fun but rooted in educational theory. Currently, I run a small playgroup in my community, which means all the playful learning ideas you've been enjoying on social media are developed from real teaching experience.
Our Very First Company Video
About a year ago, we filmed our first company video featuring our signature 3 PLAYtrays.
This video wasn't just promotional—it was a series of mini lessons, crafted with love and real classroom insights with students and kids already familiar with Kamilla! It truly shows what our brand is all about: natural, real experiences and heartfelt connections.

FUN FACT: 1 of the kids in the video was actually a preschool student from Kamilla's own class! This video is also a memory for the kids.
Looking Forward
As we step into year 2, we are excited to continue this journey with you all. Expect more innovative, educational, and fun play ideas and products from us. We are here to inspire, to educate, and to play! Thank you for believing in us, for supporting us, and for being a part of our LTP Family (Learning Through PLAYtrays).
And, of course, we could not have done this without our own family and friends who have cheered us on every step of the way!
