Hello Friends! We’re the Wilson family! We would love to take a minute and introduce ourselves to you!

Hi! I’m Amanda...the voice behind our social media pages! I’m an elementary school teacher, momma of three sweet babes, and an absolute dreamer in my heart and soul. 

My husband of 6 years, Kyle, is a heavy duty mechanic by trade, a super dad, and the “muscle” behind Northern Narrative.

Our three little ‘toy testers’ are a rambunctious crew. They simultaneously keep us on our toes while also keeping us smiling. 

With three little humans that we are responsible to raise, and a classroom full of kiddos that I get the privilege to teach…the topics of learning and child development have been central pillars in my life for years.

Northern Narrative started as a dream, while I was expecting our oldest, to bring simplistic, nature based, Canadian made toys to our own children’s playroom shelves. Play based learning, small world play, loose parts play…these weren’t just trendy Instagram hashtags for me. I knew that presenting children with toys that required their full creativity and imagination was incredibly beneficial to not only their development, but also their happiness. 

We dreamed about creating heirloom children’s toys that could be passed on through the generations. All of their imaginative stories held within them, ready for the next set of curious little hands, and ready for another round of wonder. 

So there we were, at the time, with an ambitious idea, two kiddos under two…and zero woodworking skills. Now, two years later, and one more baby added to the crew, we are continuing to learn each and every day, and with each and every collection. Northern Narrative has become a part of our story, a very special part. And we are so honoured that so many of you have welcomed us, and our toys, to be a part of your family’s or classroom’s story. It truly means the world to us. 

Thank you so much for being here, friends!
