More Cultures, Ethnicities, Disabilities, and Gender Expressions, in one Fun Educational puzzle!
Meet the Folks Who Created It
"My journey began at 8 months old, when a primary caregiver was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. That experience taught me something powerful: most kids never see themselves or their loved ones represented in the toys they play with. Every child deserves to see themselves in play."

"When I work with your beautiful puzzle at work with my kiddos and their families, I use a series of reflective questions that encourage healthy and open ended conversation around topics that are so fantastically represented in the puzzle."

"I love Kidunified®, not only as a deaf person and puzzle lover, but also for the representation of the disabilities. A puzzle with a cause and awareness is what the world needs today and it's so inspiring to see."

Tina Pannu // Mom + Puzzler
"This was the perfect puzzle for my son! Something so therapeutic about this puzzle. For Jordan putting this together is the main goal, but for me as a parent, talking about the actual illustration will be so important and will open up many conversations as he enters Grade 1."

into the world." -

Tekla Hunter // Mom + Diversity and Inclusion Manager
I bought your new puzzle via your Kickstarter today, and also wanted to buy the first puzzle (I’m very much into having complete collections). I work full time in diversity and inclusion and am very inspired by your work – it’s so important for representation to happen early. Looking forward to supporting your work for years to come.

"I work in physical rehabilitation and love opportunities to explore diversity with my nieces (and planning the same with baby on the way) since there is so little representation out there. Found out about you through a book club friend of mine."
