WeeCreation was founded by a stay-at-home mom who realized she had never seen her then 9 year old daughter play hopscotch, a game that has been popular with children for at least 2000 years and can be found in one form or another in almost every country in the world. WeeCreation is dedicated to developing toys that encourage NATURAL fitness for kids through PLAY. Our first toy is a hopscotch kit called "Hip2Hop" that includes a hopscotch placemarker, sidewalk chalk, and a
mini-DVD with kids teaching kids how to play hopscotch. Within the next month we will also have on our website supporting information about different ways to play hopscotch. Other toys that we hope will entice kids away from electronics and back outside to play are in the works. So please include us as a partner and let's "Get America Moving!"
