Hi, I’m Katie the heart behind Hive & Sprout Studio.
I’m a mom, educator, and creator based in the Lansing area, raising my incredible daughter alongside my partner. I hold a bachelor’s degree in education, earned my teaching certification in 2025, and I’m currently completing my master’s in education, graduating in May 2026.
I’ve spent the past 10 years working with young children, including the last two years as a public school teacher. Through both my classroom experience and my role as a mom, I’ve seen just how powerful play, creativity, and hands-on learning can be in a child’s development.
Hive & Sprout Studio was created from that passion.
Every product I design is rooted in intentional play supporting language development, creativity, independence, and exploration. Alongside sensory play and themed learning boxes, I also create thoughtfully curated baby boxes and gifts perfect for celebrations, new arrivals, or meaningful, ready to give options for families.
My goal is to create engaging, purposeful experiences for children while also offering beautiful, practical products that make life a little easier (and more joyful) for parents and gift-givers alike.
Whether you’re here for play, learning, or the perfect gift, everything is made with care, intention, and real-life experience behind it.
Thank you for being here and supporting this small dream of mine 🌱
