from 227 reviewsThis is a total gem for the homeschool mom!
This tray is so fun and just begging to be played with! Filling this one with sensory filler is extra special with all the different spaces and we have used it for school to organize information! Love the large size !
I absolutely love this tray! It’s very big, plenty of space to write and play. The two parts are amazing for school work and the tray is just beautiful! I’m so happy I got this one!
This mini popcorn tray is so cute! I plan to use it in a variety of ways for our homeschool. Its size makes it compact and easy to store when I’m prepping lessons for the week. Taking our learning off the page makes school exciting for my kiddos and AW & Co helps make it happen!
I am more impressed with each order I place! The quality of their wooden trays and stamps are impeccable and I love the variety of acrylic shapes! Their resources Have a staple in our home learning

Love that these can be used for all kinds of monster activities, yeti in the winter, monsters inc, Halloween play of course! They’re great to match and count a number of eyes or teeth or can be used as characters or name letters etc! They’re a great size as well!
The little chocolate chips/ gumdrops are the perfect size to use as counters or to write on! They can be used as prompts for matching upper/lower case, in flip games , or to decorate cookies/ sweaters/houses. The versatility and quality are beautiful!
AW & Co has quickly become one of our favorite educational resources for young children. Their tools are beautifully designed, thoughtfully created, and truly engaging without being overwhelming. I love that the materials encourage curiosity, hands-on learning, and independent exploration—perfect for early childhood development.
As a mom of young kids, I really appreciate how AW & Co balances education with play. The activities feel intentional yet fun, and my children stay engaged far longer than with most learning tools we’ve tried. Everything feels high-quality, durable, and clearly made with families in mind.
If you’re looking for educational tools that support learning while still honoring childhood, creativity, and play, AW & Co is a wonderful investment. Highly recommend for parents, homeschoolers, and early learners alike.
Everything is amazing (as usual)!
