Product Description
A female run and family business, Sarah thinks that many children would like to use their imaginations with Playsilks so she begins offering them for sale in local shops. She also begins sewing and making capes, skirts, princess hats, wings and many other open-ended toys all out of silk. Stores around the world hear about the silks and start to stock them! Sarah still designs all of the toys with 3 things in mind: Are they open ended (would children use the for many different things)? Do they inspire the imagination (are they beautiful)? Are they made of natural, sustainable (and not itchy) materials?
Sarah's Silks inspires imaginative play in children through
open-ended toys made from natural materials. Drawing from the philosophies of Waldorf and Montessori education and her own childhood of imaginative play, Sarah has been designing each toy with care for 28 years.

FOUNDED BY WOMEN. BUILT FOR ADVENTURE.
ODSS was started by mothers who saw firsthand how time outside builds resilient, confident kids. What began as helping outdoor schools equip students for all-weather learning grew into a bigger mission: Help families raise resilient, confident kids by making it easier for children to stay outside longer.
Testimonials
For us, the right gear from ODSS supports what we believe most about childhood. When children are able to be outside every day, in all seasons, they become tenacious, confident, and develop an authentic relationship with the land.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around! Thank you ODSS!
