Our Story
One day, we watched our nephew struggle to turn the pages of his favorite board book. After countless attempts to help, we realized there had to be a better way — so we got to work.

Thoughtfully made for children
FLIPPS was created by a Special Education teacher and Board Certified Behavior Analyst with over 20 years of experience supporting children of all abilities. The goal was simple: every child deserves the chance to independently engage with books.
The first version was handmade — a popsicle stick hot-glued onto a board book so a child could finally turn the pages on their own. It worked, but it damaged the book and never felt like a real solution. That moment sparked a bigger mission.
FLIPPS was designed to be gentle on books and empowering for kids — promoting access, dignity, and a lifelong love of reading. Every child deserves to hold a book, turn the page, and get lost in a story independently.
Join us in making reading more inclusive for everyone.
From Our Hands
to Theirs.
We want to get Flipps to children who need them, quickly and affordably. So we make every set ourselves, from 3D printing and attaching the inserts to packing each box by hand. We’re starting at home, but our goal is bigger: to help children everywhere experience the independence and joy of reading.
