“We learn as we play. Most importantly, in play we learn how to learn.”
Bree Angela believes in the power of PLAY!
Her bold and colorful art invites a sense of wonder through touch to explore the imagination and the world around us. Her main focus as a Designer of Play is to include textiles and interesting tactile elements as a way to provide a full sensory experience. With each project, Bree Angela dedicates her work to engage children and their families in fun and joy making moments.
