About Us
Two of the biggest loves of my life are soccer and my 9 year old son Marley and I’m so grateful that he enjoys the beautiful game as much as I do. For the last few seasons Ive had the honour of being his teams coach at the Mullumbimby Stingrays and one of the best traditions of youth soccer is the after-season party and presentation.
As I looked around for soccer themed gifts to provide everyone, I found myself looking for Wooden Letters that would spell each child’s name. My thinking was that if each child got a soccer-themed name that could go on their wall or door, they’d always remember their season together as the Mullumbimby Stingrays. What I discovered was that my idea didn’t exist – at least not in the way I’d envisioned it.
The entrepreneurial spirit within me started humming at that moment and with my 25 year background in wooden toy design and manufacturing, I felt like this idea could become something that would grow beyond my sons U9s soccer team.
After much research, long hours of work and dare I say a tidy investment on machinery I finished and tested the products Id created for the boys. Im happy to say they LOVED the end-of-season gift and their reactions inspired me to create and design another 16 additional sports themes for children (and adults) who enjoy individual or team-based activities.
Initially Id planned to launch these products and open the new business in early 2020 but my plans were interrupted by the Covid Crisis and I decided to put the launch on hold. Undeterred and finding myself with lots of time on my hands I dreamt up the idea of the Hero Range of Wooden Letters which I hope in some small way will tickle kids imaginations and inspire their dreams of what they could be when they get to be BIG people.

Our Guarantee to You
WOW Wooden Letters guarantees that the illustrations on each letter are unique. No two letters in any order will be the same unless this outcome is a special request.
For example if you have a soccer player at home, a six-letter name might have the character kicking, dribbling, shooting, hitting an overhead volley, heading the ball, and making a save.
We want you to have the most variety possible while still embracing the specific loves your child has for their favourite sport, science, or activity.
Whether you are shopping for nursery décor, a baby shower gift, or something special for a new child’s room, our family business is ready to help you create the results you want to achieve. Wow Wooden Letters make fantastic fun gifts for both Young and Old.
