Each blanket is designed with an element of Te Reo Māori (Māori language) or Mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) to ensure our pēpi stand strong in their identity from the moment they enter this world. Tasmyn and Lance are proud parents of their pēpi Kahika and they are both passionate about learning Te Reo Māori and ensuring they do their part to reclaim their language for their tama (boy) and future generations.

“It is such a privilege to be able to create taonga (treasure) for our pēpi and whānau to love for many years to come."
