Welcome to Levels of Discovery!
 After
spending most of my adult life in the development
of emotion-based products for Hallmark, The
Franklin Mint and Enesco, I
decided that I wanted to bring fun and innovative
children's products to the marketplace that
are truly something special. Thinking back
over the years with my own three children,
I realized that there is nothing so wonderful
as to see the look of sheer delight on a child's
face when they've discovered something new
and unexpected!
The
name of our company comes from a lesson I
learned about creating products that will
touch people's lives. Anyone can produce a
product that is exactly what it appears to
be. I want to take that a step further and
create products that allow children to discover
the "unexpected"! Let me use an example from our Rock A BuddiesTM product line to show you what I mean. Our award-winning Schoolhouse Rocker has a fun "school" theme with primary colors, apple finials and movable abacus beads to help little ones learn counting and colors. Take another look and you'll find a flip-up desk (great for reading and writing) and an armrest pencil box with a sliding lid. Pull the chalk on the seat and the music box plays the "ABC Song!". Look again, and you'll find an understamp beneath the seat that can be "personalized" with the child's name, the name of the gift-giver and the special occasion when the chair was received. I think you get the idea.
We
invite you to spend some time with us and
discover all the little "extras"
you'll find at Levels of Discovery! Thanks
again for visiting our site and come back
often!
