About Us
Invented by a full time dad and developed by a career mom, wearabowl is ingeniously simple; a whole new way of approaching snacking on-the-go.
Chandra & Danny are parents to 3 children - a daughter and boy/girl twins. Raising their children in sunny Los Angeles, they've spent many days at the zoo and beach (and stuck in traffic trying to get home after a long day!)
One day, while at the zoo with his eldest daughter (who was 11 months old at the time), Danny was trying to feed her a snack in her stroller. He was becoming increasingly frustrated because no matter where he put the bowl (between her legs, in her hands) it just kept falling and ending up on the ground. And if he did manage to get the bowl to stay in place (like wedged between her and the stroller) he noticed that it just frustrated her because it was difficult to reach. Exacerbated, he thought, - there must be a better way. A way to secure the bowl in place; a place that's easy for her to reach; a place that isn't the ground. That's when he looked down at her and her little lap and it hit him like a ton of snack containers to the head!
Chandra, a business owner working in the fashion and film industries - with a vast network of other working moms and entrepreneurs - believed in the idea since that day. During every spare moment over the years, she's worked passionately and diligently to bring wearabowl to the market.
Knowing that all three of their kids love their wearabowl, Danny and Chandra had a good hunch there'd be lots more out there who would too!
Our mission with this clever and functional little product:
We very much believe in the simple things in life. Meaningful experiences. And, in today's world of technology and instant gratification, we have made intentional efforts as parents to raise our three children to be engaged and connected to "real world experiences". We've spent many, many days out and about with our kids in the stroller - at the zoo, at amusement parks, on walks around our neighborhood - and we've always considered what they see from their perspective and tried to not miss simple and special moments - with nature, animals and people.
Let's face it - it can be so easy to put something in our child's hands to keep them distracted and occupied when they are being trekked around in their strollers and car seats. But think about how much missed opportunity we create when we do that. We've observed with our own kids, and many others, that when they have wearabowl attached to their lap with their snacks inside - they are happy, relaxed, and soaking in what they see around them. Like eating popcorn at a movie. Effortless. Engaged. Nothing much else to think about. (Until they want a refill on the snacks!)
Our mission with wearabowl is to provide an easy, independent snacking experience for babies and toddlers who are new to self feeding, and in turn, offer them (and their parents) enjoyable on-the-go trips where they see, and want to see all the cool things IRL. Connection, not distraction.
We hope you enjoy your journeys with wearabowl as much as we have!
