Our Mission
SproutGifts exists to change the way we give to children.
In a culture that often favors more things over meaningful growth, we help families and their loved ones give with intention — choosing gifts that support children's development, emotional well-being, and lasting connection, without creating clutter.
Make every gift meaningful.
Why It Matters
Research shows that children's environments — including what we emphasize through gifting — influence their emotional and social development.
Values & Relationships
Research shows that highly materialistic values can be passed from parents to children and are linked with weaker family relationships and greater psychological stress in kids.
Experiences Over Things
Giving experiences rather than possessions taps into a broader body of work showing that shared and memorable moments tend to produce stronger relational bonds and greater happiness than acquiring material objects.
Play & Development
Developmental science confirms that play and unstructured experiences — whether with others or through cooperative activities — are foundational to social, emotional, and cognitive growth in childhood.

Our Vision
We envision a world where gifts support who children are becoming, not just what they receive — where generosity feels intentional, purposeful, and rooted in meaningful connection.
Because childhood should be full of wonder, not waste.
