Busy Bear
The Original
The book that started it all.
Since 2020, Busy Bear has been the heart and soul of Wondertivity — our most loved, most preordered, and most cherished book. Now, for the very first time, we're saying goodbye to the original. These are the final boxes. Once they're gone, they're gone forever.
Busy Bear is not just a book. It's the book.
The one that started Wondertivity.
The one that turned a hobby into a business.
The one so many of you have loved since 2020.
Made for little preschooler hands, Busy Bear has the perfect balance of fine motor activities, numbers and letters — which is exactly why it became our most preordered book ever.
But with every batch taking 12+ weeks to make, we can't keep up any longer.
We've made the heartbreaking decision to redesign it. We are now down to the final boxes of the original OG Busy Bear, and for the first time ever, we've marked it 10% off for its farewell.
Once these are gone, they are gone forever.
Your last chance to snap up the original Busy Bear book.
Your last chance to own a piece of Wondertivity history 🤍
Don't Miss the Original
The farewell 10% discount is our way of saying thank you to the community that made Busy Bear legendary.
More Than a Book
Three powerful reasons parents, gifters and therapists love Busy Bear
The Screen-Time Antidote

The Gift They'll Never Forget
Forget plastic toys that break in a week. Busy Bear is a premium, heirloom-quality keepsake — beautifully presented in its own cotton drawstring bag. The gift that parents actually thank you for.
