History

Hi! Nice to meet you all.

We are the Yount family, and the little one in the pictures is our beloved son, Daniel. He inspired us to create Smarty Sprout as we searched for a toy to help him improve his speech, as he had a delay. Our journey as parents taught us the value of finding toys that are both fun and educational.

Every great idea has a beginning, and ours started with a simple wish: to create something truly special for kids and parents alike. As parents ourselves, we’ve always searched for toys that spark creativity, stand up to everyday messes, and deliver hours of fun. But when traditional busy books left us wishing for more—more durability, more play value, and easier cleanup—we decided to take matters into our own hands.

That’s how Smarty Sprout was born. We reimagined the busy book to offer something extraordinary: fully magnetic pages and figurines that inspire boundless creativity. But it’s more than just a toy—it’s a tool designed to help children develop essential skills like fine and gross motor coordination, focus, hand-eye coordination, and even frustration management. With a glossy, easy-to-clean finish and premium materials, our books are built to support your child’s growth while providing endless joy and discovery.

Your support means the world to us. Every purchase, every smile, and every moment your child spends with a Smarty Sprout book is part of our story. From our family to yours, thank you for letting us be part of your parenting journey.

Here’s to growing imaginations together!

Warm wishes,
The Yount Family
