How It Works

At Little Lanterns, our goal is to get the appropriate enrichment toys into the hands of the children who need them most.

We work directly with hospitals, early intervention providers, and families to understand what each child needs developmentally and emotionally. From there, we thoughtfully source, package, and deliver high-quality toys and sensory tools that support growth, healing, and comfort. Every item is carefully chosen for its therapeutic value and safety, then sent with love, because even the smallest gift can brighten a child’s world.
