5 Little Bears

5 Little Bears

5 Little Bears is owned by Leanne & Wendy. Leanne is mum to 5 boys (hence the name 5 Little Bears!). She’s the graphic designer, millworker, ideas woman, printer & engraver whizz!  In her spare time (ha!) she’s making bees wax polish on her stove top and gluing up a storm on her dining table!

Wendy is mum to 2 boys.  When she’s not a travelling saleswoman, out and about showing our fabulous products to preschools and child care centres, she’s doing the books, packing orders and collaborating with Leanne on new and exciting products!

• All 5 Little Bears educational and sensory resources are all hand made locally in NSW, using timber that is sourced mainly from sustainable Australian and New Zealand plantations. 
  
• They are licensed to partner the Australian Made & Australian Made And Owned logos with the registered products.
  
• Their aim is to reduce our environmental footprint, by minimising our timber waste.
  
• All offcuts are bagged as loose parts and the sawdust collected from machining the timber is bagged and given away to be used for compost or mulch.
  
• The Perspex used is also offcuts that are sourced from a local company.
